Gardin may have gone to Europe in
the latter part of the past year chiefly
for recreation or rest, but as he is in
umately identified with the move

had much to do with the loans made
by American banks to Germany last
fall it has occurred to some of his
friends that his visit to Europe at this
time was due to the prospect either
that the United States viii renew a
considerable portion of the loans made
to Germany last fall, many of which

knew not only that Germany, but that
France, purposed making heavy loans
in the mfdwinter and early spring OF
this year. Nobody has been able to

WEALTHY MERCHANT
STRANGLES HIS WIFE,
THEN KILLS HIMSELF

PORTAGE LAKE, MAINE, Sept. =
The coroner today began an investi-
cation into the deaths of Daniel G. En-
cry, rich mahogany dealer of New
ton, Mass, and his wife, who were
found dead in their summer home here
last night after having been missing
since Wednesday.
Emery apparently strangled his wife
with his bare hands while insane, then
shot himself. Neighbors of the couple
told the coroner that Emery's actions,
although not unusual enough to excite
comment, had been queer for a week
before the tragedy.
Emery, who was 40 years old, was
born in Indianapolis, Ind. The slain
woman was his second wife. Emery
fell in love with her while she, as a
trained nurse, attended him during a
severe attack of illness two years ago
Emery's first wife secured a divorce
She lives in Indianapolis.

vices containing 40 separate and dis
tinct shows will hold full sway on the
midway. The grand opening Of the mid
way each night will be made in blaze
of electric lights, showing how the for
eign lands celebrate festivities. There
will also be three big brass bands that
will give the music loving public all de-
sired in the line of fine music.
Two aeroplanes will soar to the clouds
each day, one a monoplane and the
other a biplane. They will carry mall
shoot bombs from the machines and
do other blood -curdling stunts just for
the amusement of the big crowds. The
Booster Train of the Chamber of Com
merce will carry over $4,000 pieces of
advertising that will be given out Ell
route.
