INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. 12.-Govern-
or Marshall refused late Monday night
and again Tuesday morning to give an
audience to T. B. Dean, the mysterious
seeker for heating franchise at Gary
and Dean left here about noon today.
The appearance of Dean in Indiana
polls, temporarily shifted the fight
against Mayor Knots and Gary coun-
cilmen to this city. Dean left Chicago
Sunday evening and his trail was
picked up by reporter, who follow.
ed him to this city. To this reporter
late Sunday night Governor Marshall
stated that Gary man had been try
ing to obtain IN audience. but that he
had excused himself at the tins be-
cause of other engagements.
The governor admitted that he want
ed time to think it over.
Shortly after the visit of the report
er to the governors house Monday
night the governor was visited by an
old friend of Dean and he told the
governor the same story about Deans
identity which he had previously
heard. Dean is no detective He is
residing at Louisville at present, but
formerly lived at Lexington, KY, and
while there was an inspector for the
Interstate Commerce Commission. He
went to Gary six months ago for
the purpose of specializing in land. AZ
ter having joined with the Parks
brothers of Gary in this business for a
time, they decided to apply for a heat
ing plan franchise.
Sparks Brothers Desert Him.
The Sparks brothers became dis
gusted with Deans operation, it is
said, and withdrew from the fight for
the franchise. After the withdrawal
of the Sparks brothers, according to a
statement made by Dean, Dean him.
self found that it would be impossible
to get any kind of franchise without
'sweetening the pot" for certain mem
bers of the Gary administration. This
he decided to do for the particular .pur-
pose of getting the grafters in trap.
Dean said Monday that his life had
been threatened three times, and that
he left Gary because he did not want
to expose himself to the personal dan
ger from self constituted guardians of
the city administration. Dean came
to Indianapolis to ask Governor Mar
shall to guarantee the prosecutions of
the alleged Gary bribe takers. Gov
ernor Marshall says he has been think
ing over the Gary case and that his
mind is perfectly clear as to the
course he is to pursue.
in the first place." said the COVER
nor, Il must be assured that this is
no frameup. l will have to know who
Dean is, and what he represents, and
then l must know that the Lake coun-
ty prosecutor either is incompetent
or that he refuses to prosecute the
cases. On all of these things my mind
is perfectly clear. The Gary officials
are entitled to a square deal, and this
they will have"
Governor Marshall has had frequent
trouble with Knots. SO he wants to
guard against prejudice in dealing
with the Gary case.

r. J. Pierce was called and made an

i it is said that of late she had been no.
ticeably depressed in spirits. But no
one, so far as can be learned, ever
heard her utter a word of despair nor
indicate suicidal intens.
The facts of the case point to pre-.
meditated suicide. In the same room
in which Mrs. Hafner's body was dis
covered by her boy, there was found a
change of clothing, presumably for
burial, which she had evidently laid
out while arranging for death BY the
side of the clothes was her life insur-

of the fatal dose of acid was found at
the side of the bed. Mrs. Hafner's body
showed little signs of a struggle. Her
hands. were tightly clenched. but there
was no other sign of death struggle
j. Bottle Was Not Found.
A cork which presumably had been
taken from the bottle containing the
carbolic acid was found downstairs,
but the bottle itself could not be found
Evidently Mrs. Hafn-r had poured the
acid into a cup, thrown away the bot
tie. and walked upstairs to her room to
meet death by her own hand
