ON BIGAMY CHARGE

JOLIET, Ills, Oct. 10--ln a little
cell in the county jail here today,
Rev. John Hardin. pastor of the little
Congregational church at Beecher,
Ills. sought to explain his peculiar
code OF morality by which he justified
bigamy on the simple grounds that
his first marriage wasn't q happy one.
Both women knew the exact facts, |"
he explains, 80 could see nothing
immoral In marrying the second time
without the formality of a divorce"
Hardin. who was born In India, mar
ried In England several years ago. He
deserted his wife and children be-
cause, he said. of incompatibility OF
temper. He came to America and ac-
cepted the pastorate Of the Beecher
church.

MURDER VICTIMS WILL Be
BURIED THIS AFTERNOON
--
Bodies of aJcob Kraft and Wife
To Lie Side y Side Slayer
Still Eludes Capture.

The double funeral OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Jacob Kraft, victims OF Charles Fnl-
ler's murderous rage. takes place from
the Seven-Mile house, Woodward-ave.
and the seyen-Mile road, the scene OF
the tragedy, Tuesday afternoon. The
Rev. August T., Gehrke OF st. Johns
German ElthSlan church. ofiiciates.
and interment will be In German

"A possible clue to the whereabouts
OF Fuller Is revealed I'm q report made
TO the sherin and to local police head
quarters. Tuesday morning, by Sherin
Tripp, OF Oakland county, relative TO
the theft of two fine sorrel horses, a
spring wagon and harnesses. from the
barn OF the Royal Hootel, Royal Oak.
Frank Parmenter. owner Of the stol-
en- animals. says that the barn was
not locked, Monday night, and shortly
after o'clock Tuesday morning, the
theft occurred. While there Is moth
ing to directly connect Fuller with the
theft, II is regarded as possible that
he chose that favorite way of making
his escape to the country, after hav-
ing lain In hiding until q suitable op-
portunity for horse-stealing presented
itself. The horses are valued at $500
The discovery of two revolvers, one
blood-stained, which were sold In
Steinberg's pawnshop, No. 119 Michi-
gan-aye., within two hours after the
murder and by man who answers
in detail the description Of Fuller, has
led Sheriff CASTOR and the poiice to
abandon the theory that Fuller may
be suicide. and to renew their ac-
tivities in running him to earth.
Morris Tuchbant, clerk In Stein
bergs pawnshop, turned the weapons
over to the Nheriff. Monday afternoon.
He declared they were sold to him
for 81, by a man who he Is sure was
Fuller. Tuchbant said that one OF
the revolvers was fully loaded. and
that the other had four empty cart
ridges I'm the chamber. He asked the
stranger why he was carrying loaded
guns, but does not remember receiv-
ing any reply. After the man left, the
clerk noticed the bloodstains on one
OF the revolvers.
Further investigation BY the sher.
IFS force, also brought to light let
ter, written by Fuller and addressed
TO his mother in Franklin, Mich, evil
dently on the day OF the crime.
Sheriff CASTOR regards as a subter-
fuge. the last farewell letter to his
mother found In Fuller's room. The
sheriff thinks the murderer expected
10 gain time in his escape. while Of
ficers would be searching for his dead
body.
A postmortem examination by Cum
Nv Physician Forbes reveals that
seven bullets had pierced the body OF
Mrs. Kraft, while four bullets struck
her husband.

HURT BY FALL FROM CAR
Bones Of Left Arm Shattered
and Deep Wound Inflicted
In Scalp.

The Rev. z. T. Conley, pastor OF
the Clinton-aye. Baptist church. and
living at No. 90 Windemere-ave., fell
or was jolted on an interurban car

rinc force and the bones of his left

The crew Of the car continued on its
way. leaving the injured man 10 help
himself as best he could. A passerby
assisted him TO his home.
DR.. e. p. Mills, No. 27S2 Woodward
ave-, called to attend Mr.. Conley,
found that the bones Of the elbow
had been broken in a number OF
places, and that the scalp wound re-
quired upwards Of 20 stitches. The
arm will be permanently disabled,
DR.. Mills says.
A depressing feature OF the acci-
dent is that Mr.. Conley's son, larry,
professor In the University OF Michi.
gan, arrived at the parental home,
accompanied by his bride, 10 minutes
after the mishap. to spend q short
visit, while on his honeymoon. A
reception had been planned for the

poned.
The injured man IL one Of the best
known Baptist clergymen In the state
and for many years he has been edi-
tor OF the Christian Herald.
In speaking Of Mr.. Conley's case,
DR.. Mills said he Understood that the
conductor gave tho signal to start
his car before Mr.. Conley was on the
step, thus causing the accident.

ADVERTISING TALKS.
WRITTEN BIZ
WILLIAM O. FREEMAN.

HENRY KING HANNAH
recently wrote me the following
letter:
"One OF the general truths af-
firmed by the advertising profession
is that the ordinary life OF a magazine
advertisement Is thirty days, while
that OF the newspaper Is twenty-four
hours.
How do you reconcile this with the
following experience Of the TRAV-
ELERS' INSURANCE. COMPANY?
AT the end Of Juno and the begin
ming Of July they ran some adyertis-
ing with coupon In certain New
York papers.
The last advertisement with a cou-
pom appeared on the 5th OF July. At
various times since then coupons
have been received. On the 5the OF
September, TWO MONTHS AFTER
THE INSERTION OF THE LAST AID
VERTISEMENT, there came q coupon
clipped from one OF these ads.
IF the man sending Il had lived In
Australia. we might find an explana-
tion. But the sender OF this coupon
lived on West Fifteenth street. New
Yark City.
The advertising done by the
Travellers Insurance Company
did not occupy very large space,
but THE COPY WAS TIMELY
1T WAS BASED ON : THE
NEWS OF THE DAY; therefore

vertising that makes application

The defense is moving heaven and

also on the fact that in his case, con.
