Accused of Dark Crime,

Lafayette, Ind, Aug. civilian
Ashby, the son of a grocer, is under
arrest on a charge of numbering Sam
uel Waddell. a trapper, whose charred
body was found In the ruins of an old
log cabin nine miles west of here,
whseh was destroyed by fire early In
the morning of March 20.
How the death Of Waddell came
about was a mystery, but since his
death his two cousins have been at
work on the case and little by little
have accumulated evidence which re-
suited In Ashby's arrest
Waddell was known to have had a
large sum of money on his person the
night of the. fire. He and Ashby and
a man named James Casner were in
Lafayette that night and rode out to-
gether in Ashby's wagon. Waddell
left the wagon at a crossroads and
went to his home. According to Ash
by's story to the coroner and the grand
jury, he continued on home and went
to bed.
He and his wife quarreled last week
and separated. Ashby came to the
city, became intoxicated and was ar
rested. The police searched him and
found $3.50 in his pockets. This was
a surprise as Ashby had always been
regarded as a poor young a
Mrs. Ashby told the officers that she
suspected her husband, and a revolver
found on him Is known to have be-
longed to Waddell.
In the ruins of the cabin was found
$500 in gold and silver. This had
been hidden by Waddell, who lived the
life of a hermit. The only thing not
found was his revolver. He was
known to have had $1,000 in paper
money on his person that night. Ac,
cording to the states theory this mon.
ey vas stolen from him and in the
stealing of it he was probably murder
ed and his cabin set On fire.

If one can judge by the contin-

a short use of Root Juice was a gem
tleman who said that Root Juice had
almost performed a miracle In his
case: 81, before using the remedy,
was weak and nervous. My appe-

bad that the Hghtest foods would
sour on my stomach, causing a for
nation of gas that would press
against my heart and almost cause
it to stop beating at times, but
after taking the juice a short whAes
my appetite is good, my nerves are
settled, and | digest everything /

The Atlantic was sunk In collision In

$50 lives were lost. Many of those on

JAP
OF KILLING
OFF FAMILY

San Francisco, Aug. 5.-The rage. Of
a japanese who was beaten by a ranch
man led Henry Yamagachi to kill Mr..
and Mrs. Enoch Kendall and their son
on a lonely ranch near Casadero, So
mona county. He fed the dfsmembered
bodies to hogs and burned the bones
in a cook stove and at several fires he
built near the house.
The family disappeared suddenly
several days ago and Mrs. Starbuck
of Oakland, who owned the ranch, de-
clared that she believed they had fed
to avoid a lawsuit which she proposed
bringing against Kendall for selling
some of the ranch stock.
1t was known that the younger Ken
dali beat Yamagachi about a fortnight
ago because he found the Jap spying
upon the Kendall family and reporting
things to Mrs. Starbuek.
The Jap acted like an insane man
after the beating and visited Mrs.
Then he suddenly disappeared. The
police believe that he, with the help
of several other japanese, murdered
the family and then tried to remove
all traces of the crime.
In the ashes of the fire were found
Mrs. Kendalrs rings and other relics
of the family that have been positively
identified.
The murder hap aroused the whole
community, as 1t is the most barbarous
known here for years.

went to the Office of Dean Sheppard
and loudly announced:
'If you wish to know what I think
of your institution and this diploma
1 will show you" Touching a match
to it, he lighted a cigar with the fam

Don't try that, young man, or there
will be trouble" cautioned Dean Shep-
pard, to which Faus answered:
eff this is what you mean, just take
off your glasses"
Faus received a blow on the nose be-
fore he had finished his challenge.

the residence of Professor Paul C. Nu-

Gary hotel that Smith purchased Halles
several drinks and they later adj
journed to a side room, where Smith
gave Halles SIS in marked bills, which
were later found on his person when
he was arrested and brought to the sta

two other foreigners were present.

VIM. j. HALLES
IS NOT GUILTY
Jury in Gary Employment Extortion
Case Returns Verdict this A. M
Investigation to Continue

William J. HaIles formerly superin-
tendent of the carpenter department. OF
of the Indiana steel mills, employing
over 600 men charged with operating
and maintaining an employment agency
was found not guilty this morning by
n jury In Special Judge w. NJ. Dumas
court.
The trial of Halles who was accused
by Charles Smith. a carpenter. of ae
cepting SIS. for a position in the mills,
was one of the most sensational that
has taken place in the Gary police court
for many months. The affidavit upon
which Halles was arrested charged him
with operating and maintaining en-
ployment agency and was signed by
Charles Smith.
state Failed to Prove.
Although the state proved by it's
witnesses conclusively that Halles ac-
cepted the money from Smith yet 1t
failed to prove TO the jury that Halles
operated and maintained the agency
as charged in the affidavit This was
the pivot on which the whole situation
hinged and was the point taken into
consideration by the jury
Halles was one of the happiest of men
when the jury returned their verdict
acquitting him of the charge this morn
ing. The evidence introduced yester-
day by the states witnesses was of
such an discriminating nature that there
not a question of doubt as showr
by the prosecutor that Halles had ac-
copied the money from Smith.
Tells of Plot.
A plot was brought to light by Smith
on the witness stand that Halles and
his attorneys had forced him into
signing a written statement after they
had filled him with liquor and pointed ;
gun at his head. The plot was of sucf
a disgusting nature that it is said dis
barment proceedings may be brough

A report was circulated on Broadwa
