 Chief of Police Charles B. McCabe went to the coachman's house late this afternoon to further question him and not receiving any answer to his sum mons went up to the coachman's bed room. The room was dark and on throw ing open the blinds the chiefs attention was attracted by trickling sound un- der the bed. Investigation revealed Schermerhorn lying under the bed with his throat cut and blood dripping in a pool on the floor.
 Schermerhorn was taken into custody. On the table in his room the chief found a note which read:
 My Dear Wife-I am not guilty.

No Changes Are Made
 n Rock Island SySfen1

New York. January 13.-S. B. Chapin 6 Co. have been punished. Daniel G. Reid resigned today as chairman of the executive committee of the Chicago. Island and Pacific Railway company, and now out of the mass of rumors which have cropped up since the recent sensa- tional rise and fall in Rock Island com mon, comes the apparently authentic re- port that the control Of the Rock Island company is to change and that the Reid influence will be eliminated.
 Powerful foreign interests, headed by pr. F. s. Pearson, a London banker, owner of Mexican properties and with strong Canadian connections, has recent ly acquired in the open market large blocks of Rock Island common and pre- ferred stocks. probably about one-fifth of the whole. The newcomers, it is under stood, are working in harmony with Judge Will H. Moore, and First National bank interests, who, with Mir Reid, have in recent years dominated the Rock lsl- and properties
 Some time ago Dr. Pearson attracted the attention of Wall street by organfz- ing a 4o,00o,ooo syndicate which took over extensive Mexican properties owned

St. Louis, January 12.-In a copyrighted story today the Post-Dispatch published what it claims was the confession of Ray Lamphere, who died "a few days ago in the Indiana penitentiary at Michigan City, while serving a sentence for set ting fire to the home of Mrs. Belle Gun ness near La Porte. It is known that the Rev E. A. sehell, formerly of La Porte, heard Lamphere's confession.
 The confession shows that Mrs. Gun ness and three children were ehloro- formed by Lamphere, who was robbing the house with a woman accomplice; that Jennie Olson was not killed by Mrs. Gunness; that the chloroform used by Lanphere was part of that he bought for Mrs. Gnnness 10 kill three men. one of whom was Andrew Helgelein, the others probably Ole Budsberg and Tonnes Pet ersen Lien, and that one of these men, probably Lien. was the third husband of Mrs Gunness.
 The Post Dispatch says that if Dr schell would consent to talk he would verify the confession 1t publishes It. according to the paper. was obtained from a man of unassailable character and truthfulness, whose standing in the community where he lives is such that his word is accepted without question.
 Dr. Schell at Burlington, Ia., today, after hearing the confession which the Post-Dispatch printed said he had not divulged any such confession. A corre- spondent of the paper saw Dr. Schell,

CHAMP CLARK DISSECTS
 CANNON AND CANNONlSM

printed as a public document and at public expense, saying:
 "Evidently the intention is to circu- late it ad libitum as a piece of cam- paign literature to help elect anoth CT stand-pat House of Representatives which will, in turn, re-elect MT. Can non to thu speakership, for, as Macau- lay said of Sir Robert waIpole. he is avaricious of power and clings to 1t with the tenacity of a snapping turtle and with the desperation of drowing man clutching a plank in mid ocean.
 MT Speaker Cannon may rage until he has the apoplexy, but he cannot ter rify the men who are the objects of his spleen. He is fond of quoting scrip ture, although he generally quotes it Incorrectly. He should ponder that DOT tion of holy writ which says: Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor."
 In conclusion MT. Clark said: Ger tainly the republicans cannot be de- scribed as a happy family. The Par s-Cannon row, the Ballinger-Pin- chot row, the Crane-Knox row, the insurgents -standpat row, the constant ly increasing talk of the return from Elba,' the central bank row, all these are merely symptoms, but most sug- gestive symptoms of the disease now affiicting the G. o. F. So, while demo- crats everywhere celebrate the glad New Year by getting together for an assault all along the line upon the common enemy, republicans present to the astonished gaze of men the ap- pearance of dissolving view"

ROBERTA DE JANON . IS BACK AT HOME

Philadelphia, January 13.-Roberta de Janon is now In a suite of private rooms in St. Agnes hospital in this city. Fer dinand Cohen is locked in cell await ing hearing on the charge of abduction and his wife is in the ico-chirugical hospital suffering from nervous col lapse. Miss De Janon and Cohen arrived here from Chicago at 5:45 this even ing.
 III spite of the severe cross-examina- ton to which the young heiress was sub jected for nearly five hours tonight no change in her original story was brought out.
 When she saw her grandfather, Robert Buist, the millionaire seed man. in the office of the assistant superintendent of police, she threw her arms around his neck and burst out crying. She said sire was sick and glad to get home. but in- sisting that Cohen. her companion, had done nothing to merit any punishment. '"I tried to get him to run away before," she said
 While Cohen was being put through the third degree" his wife made frantic but ineffectual attempts to see him.
 While Miss De Janon was at the city hall she was examined by the police sur geon and he reported that no charge moro serious than abduction could Fso substantiated.

Lar11phere' s Confession
 Of Murder and Arson

who is president of the Iowa Wesleyan university, Mt. Pleasant la, at Adair, Ia, last Sunday where a church was dedicated He refused then to give 10 the public the confession Lamphere made on the ground that it is pledged by the secrecy of the confessional.
 The confession establishes the fact, so long doubted, that Mrs. Guinness is dead. The adult body found in the smothering ruins of the Guinness farmhouse was the body of Mrs Guinness. She was under the influence of chloroform when the smoke crept up through the creyices and sinothered her. She died with the head of her little boy pillowed on her breast. He, too, chloroformed. died without walk ing.
 Neither of them knew aught of !. when the two little girls. Myrtle and Lucy, not so thoroughly chloroformed as the woman and the boy, awoke to their peril and ran into their mothers room and threw themselves upon the woman, beseeching help. They perished there with the woman and the boy. mercifully suffocated by the smoke before the flames came.
 Jennie Olson, niece and adopted daugh- ter of Mrs. Guinness, who 1t had been believed was murdered by the woman over year before the house was burned. and whose body was believed to have been buried in the farmyard, was not murdered by Mrs Guinness, according to Iamphere's confession, but was in the house the night 1t was burned, and was also burned to death.
 Assuming that Lamphere told the truth about Jennie Olson, the Identify of the girl buried in the yard adds another mystery to the case.

 Accompanying the announcement the governors of the stock exchange issued a statement which, after reciting that the offending firm had received an order for the purchase of 10000 shares of Rock Island stock and gave 1t out to other brokers to execute. said that "the execu- tion of said order In said manner by said firm constituted misuse by them of fs- cilities of the exchange and was an act detrimental to the interest and welfare of the exchange"

Dayton, O., January 1S-ln speech here tonight Champ Clarke, leader or the minority in the House of Represen tatiyes. attacked Speaker Cannon ana what fig known as 'Cannonism." MT. Clark declared that "the tide Is every where rising against 'Cannonism, and that the fight against the House rules would continue until crowned with com n1a+a success. MT. Clark said the state nent of Speaker Cannon that the fight against the House rules was simply an af,ort to prevent any tariff legislation was untrue.
 MT. Clark referred to Speaker Can non.s Kansas City speech which he said was devoted chiefly to a discussion or the fight to amend the House rules and +o the motives, ambitions, mental equipment and political status of some of us who have dared to lift his eyes above his shoestrings, look him square lv in the face and battle in the open for the rehabilitation of the House or Representatives. It would be inter estine to know how that speech hap nened to be written and read to the au- a,ence and it would be edifying to know who furnished him with certain alleged facts on which he based some of his remarks
