l5,OOO AT GUINNESS FARM.
Practically Every One in La Porte Go to Field of Death and 4,o00 Others
 Arrive on Cars.

La Porte, Ind.-All roads in La Porte county led to the Guinness farm Sun day, upwards of 15,000 sightseers wis iting the place of death before the sun set. Practically every able-bodied resi- dent of this city made the trip, and the railroads and trolley lines brought about 4,000 more to the city.
 Mayor Darrow found it necessary to issue stringent orders that the Sun day closing laws should be strictly enforced and the hotels and restau- rants were overrun with patrons. Practically every conveyance in the town was pressed into service in an attempt to provide transportation for the crowds in the afternoon. These proved insufficient and late corners were forced to make their way to the place on foot.
 Investigation of the case by the au- thorities halted, the sheriff and other officials who went to the farm being compelled to become mere spectators also. Several of the out-of-town visi- tors, however, were seeking informa- tion concerning missing friends and relatives and some further information regarding the possible identity of the unknown victims of the farm, resulted from their inquiries.
 The most definite information came from Olaf Londoe, 610 La Sale avenue, Chicago. He saidh is brother, Thom- as, worked for Mrs. Guinness three years ago and that the last letter which he had from him contained in- formation that Thomas intended to marry his employer. Olaf wrote to the woman little later and she re- piled that Thomas Londoe had gone to St. Louis and that she had had no word from him. Olaf Londoe viewed the unidentified corpses but was un- able to find any likeness to his brother in the decayed bundles of bones and flesh.
 Sheriff Smulzer will continue his in- vestigations at the Gunness farm Mon- day. The first object of search will be the heaps of ashes and other refuse
 
 in the cellar of the ruined house. The ashes and cinders are to be carefully sifted and then sluiced by a miner in an effort to discover the gold filings which are said to have been in Mrs. Guinness teeth. The floor of the eel lar may also be dug up and additional excavations may be made where 10 ghastly cadavers have been unearth- ed
 Mayor Lemuel Darrow, law partner of H. w. Worden, who is defending Ralph Lamphere, said that the defense will start an investigation of the Pine Lake cemetery, an old burial ground, about mile from the Guinness farm. 1t Is the theory of the defense that Mrs. Guinness killed her children, placed the body of large woman near them, set fire to the house to cover up her crime, and then fled. If it is dis covered that any of the graves in Pine Lake have been disturbed recently, Mayor Darrow thinks that this theory will be more or less substantiated

cit is likely that the queen herself
will not press her claims for many
more years, as she is now seventy years
old. Her daughter, however, will be
a legitimate heir to any rights the
mother possessed and there is, therefore,
little likelihood that the national con
gress will be relieved of the Hawaiian
claims for a good many years to come,
as the claims are large ones and with
just sufficient basis to tempt adventur>

recognition, and even to furnish the
money necessary to press them. -

ment for compensation for lands for

"The claims of LiIiuokalani have been
before the public ever since the an
nexation of her former domain to the
United States. The general opinion
here is that the chances of her receiv-
ing compensation are very remote.
"Article 95 of the constitution of the
republic of Hawaii, promulgated July
T. 1894, declared the crown lands to be
the property of the Hawaiian govern
ment, and to be free and clear of any
trust Of or concerning the same, and

"This selfsame article of the constitu-

any amendment of the Constitution of
