CYANIDE DRINK IS
TRACED 70 PARS0N
RiCheSon Gave Me "PoWder'
Girl Told Chum.
DAMAGING POINT is SCORED
Miss Avis Linnell Confided to a
Friend, Just Before Her Death,
That She Was Given a ahead
ache" Cure.

Boston.-Most damaging of all
points scored by the police against
Rev. Clarence Richeson, held without
bail as the poisoner of Miss Avis Lin
nell, is statement by a chum of the
dead girl that shortly before her death
Miss Linnell said to her that she had
just been with her friend, as she al
ways referred to Richeson, and that
he had given her some powder that
would cure her.
Il am SO happy" Miss Linnell told
the other girl, the police say. Nov
shall not have any more headaches"
The other girl was not aware of
Avis predicament and the little Hyan-
mis- girl naturally wished to conceal
her real trouble. referring to it as
headaches"
The police regard this as the most
important evidence they have OBJ
tanned against the minister since
Hahn, the druggist, came forward with
the information that he had sold
large amount of cyanide of potassium
to Richeson ito kill dog"
1t is the first link connecting the
cyanide with the former pastor of the
fashionable Emmanuel Baptist church
in Cambridge, is known to have
bought, and with a similar poison Miss
Linnell drank and died from in the
bathroom of the Y. w. c. A. in this
city.
The police of Boston are tracing
Richeson's previous career and have
found that in some ways he was
prototype of the famous Doctor
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde"
Richeson is tall, slender, dark and
Apollo-like in appearance. His is the
fascinating suavity of the typical
southerner. He has voice of
we'll trained actor. He is of poetic
mood and reflects the tender senti-
ment that captivates. Surrounded
with the sacred garb Of his profession,
it is little wonder that his career has
been one of continued feminine con-
quest.
How many girls he knew other than
Avis Linnell and Violet Edmands will
be developed before he is tried in
court of law.

Kansas City, Mo. - The second
trial of DR.. S. Clark Hyde for the
murder of millionaire Col. Thomas
Hunton Swope probably will run the
Mcnamara case in Los Angeles a
close second in the amount Of time
consumed in picking the jury.
1t came to an abrupt halt less than
two hours after counsel on each side
had announced ready" Judge Por-
terrified, on motion of the defense, dis
missed the entire panel of veniremen
who had been summoned for the case.
Among the objections raised by the
defense were these: That the jury list
had not been revised properly and &C
cording to the statutes; that Judge
Ralph Latshaw, who was prejudiced
against Hyde, had selected many OF
the names in the jury wheel; that the
venire had been drawn so late Satur-
day afternoon that the marshals could
not properly search for every man
whose name was drawn; and that jur-
ors had been summoned by the county
marshal, who was prejudiced.

EIGHT KILLED In MINE
BLAST; EIGHT INJURED
keg of Powder Is Exploded and "Biack
Damp" lgnited at Harrisburg,

Harrisburg, Height miners were
killed and eight others overcome by
an explosion of powder in the O'Gara
mine No. 9, mile from here. The
dead and the miners who were I'M
conscious were removed from the
mine by rescuers, three of whom
were overcome by gas, but were re-
suscitated at a hospital. The cor
oner has promised rigid investiga-
tion into the cause of the explosion.
A keg of powder exploded and ig-
nited black damp. There was heavy
blast and the roof of the mine fell in.
Fifteen men caught by a cave-in some
distance from the entrance escaped by
an adjoining shaft.
That more lives were not lost was
due to the fact that the shift was
changing at the time of the explosion
Several men, protecting themselves
with cloths over their noses and
mouths, were lowered down into the
pit. They soon began sending up the
dead and injure1
Two men, it was found, had been
killed instantly and were so burned
that they could not be identified.
Seven others, sent to the surface, were
injured SO that they died within an
hour afterward.
The detoEation warned the town
that an accident had occurred and the
fears OF the wives and children OF the
miners were confirmed when they saw
two ambulances gaIlop toward the
mine, followed in few minutes by an
automobile containing physicians and
nurses
The mine is one of several owned
in the field near here by the OGara
Coal & Mining company of Chicago.

TAFT DEN0UNCES CRITICS
OF THE SUPREME COURT
President Says Attacks on High Bench
Are Insult to Members and
to Himself.

Aberdeen, S. d. - President Tart
in an address before the Aberdeen
Commercial club declared anew his
intention of having the Sherman
antitrust law enforced to the very
letter, and answered with much ylgor
the charge that he had set up the SUI
preme court with the idea that that
body would emasculate that law.
The president referred to the cr1ti-
cism of the Supreme courts rulings in
the Standard Oil and Tobacco trust
cases, and said nothing could be fur
Their from the fact than the charges
that the statute had been made in
effective.
The Supreme court, he said, had de-
clared that any restraint OF trade or
combination for the purpose OF sup
pressing competition and controlling
prices was an inhibition of the law.
Il have challenged and l challenge
again." he shouted, ANY person to cite
case that he would condemn as a
violation of the antitrust law that
would not be condemned under the de-
cisions of the Supreme court. AS yet
| have heard no reply.
The only answer that has come has
been an insult to the court and an In
suit to me. 1t is the charge that |
set up the court with the purpose and
understanding that 1t would emascu-
late the statute. oh, gentlemen,
there Is not the slightest foundation
for that.
Il am proud Of the men that l have
put on the court, | am proud to have
found men with standing as high as
they to take the places on that bench,
and l am willing to abide by the rec
ord that they have made and that they
will make.

but an old mans heart refused to do
the bidding of young mans ambi-
ton.
The new lease of life which was
given him was broken after a night
of strenuous battle, in which his pulse
at one time beat only six times min
ute, and when the rally started arose
to twelve beats a minute and was
finally brought to normal, or between
fifty and sixty beats to minute.
The last words of Mr.. Walsh as he
gained his senses following the severe
attack related to his possibility OF
fighting the battle of finance. When
his pulse reached normal he gained
consciousness and asked why DR..
Frank Billings was there. He realized
the importance of the visit and said:
Il guess I'm pretty bad. won't be
able to make the fight"
He then fell into a state of uncon-
seriousness from which he did not
awaken.
The entire family was present when
he died.
Before the collapse or the Chicago
National bank, the Equitable Trust
company and the Home Savings bank,
John r. Walsh was interested in many
projects. The charges which sent him
to Leavenworth were the result OF his
operations in the bank mentioned, the
charges being the misappropriation OF
funds.
Walsh's rise from a newsboy to a
factor in the railroad world, the finan-
cial world and the newspaper world,
was made by hard, tedious. industrt-
Gus application to his work.
He was born near Macroon, County
Cork, Ireland. August %, 1887. He was
thirteen years of age when he arrived
in America,

Chicago. Eight days after his
parole from Leavenworth prison John
r. Walsh died at his residence
in this city. He lived to enjoy only
few hours of freedom after suffer
ing 20 months of Imprisonment. The
certificate ascribes his death to heart
failure. His relatives say the cause
was q broken heart.
Just before he was attacked he had
been going over some of his papers,
seeking way to regain his foothold
in the Chicago world of finance. Most
of the papers IN his home were re-
ceipts for the 100000 he had turned
over to his creditors in an effort to
pay their claims, and save himself the
disgrace of prison sentence.
When Mr. Walsh left Leavenworth
prison he vowed that he would re-
cuperate his finances and again be-
come a factor in the financial world.
