DISCHARGED
GUARDS To
TESTIFY
Despite Efforts Of Warden Meyer
to Block Penitentiary Inquiry,
Probe Is 0rderedo

With an investigation of the Allan
ia Federal Penitentiary ordered by
Attorney General McReynolds despite
the efforts of friends of Warden Will
liam II. Meyer to sidetrack a probe
and minimize the importance of the
charges made by Julian Hawthorne,
DR.. w. j. Morton and a number of
former employees of the institution,
interest has eentered in the testimony
seven discharged guards Of the in
stitution are expected to give when
the investigation is under way.
These men lost their jobs because,
Warden Meyer claims, they were re-
sponsible for the charges made by
Hawthorne and DR. Morton, who, he
says, assailed his administration of
the prison at the instance and request
Of the disgruntled guards. The dis
charged guards, since they left the
prison. have intiamted that they have
a complete knowledge of the hard
ships of the institution. and that they
are ready to talk when the proper
time comes. and to the proper people.
Date of Probe Secret.
1t is regarded as virtually certain
that when Attorney General Mickey
nold's investigation starts these men
will be called before the investigator
and that their testimony will play
large part in the inquiry.

Verdict Freeing Accused Widow
Greeted in Early Morning by
Cheering in Courtroom.

PLYMOUTH, MASS, Oct 30
Mrs. Jennie May Eaton to-day was
acquitted of the murder of her hus-
band, Rear Admiral Joseph Giles Ea-
ton, formerly of Alabama, after the
jury had deliberated her case eleven
hours.
The verdict of not guilty was re-
turned at SOS a. m, after crowd OF
lawyers, relatives, friends and curious
persons had kept an all-night vigil
In the courtroom.
A remarkable scene took place
when the foreman announced the
verdict that cleared Mrs. Eaton of the
charge of having poisoned her hus-
band with arsenic at their home in
Assinippi, Mass. ..-..
The acquitted woman rose to her
feet and, gripping the hands of her
lawyers, exclaimed in shaken
voice: Thank Cod l have the best
lawyers in Massachusetts"
About 200 persons were IN the
courtroom when the verdict was an"
nounced. In spite of previous warn
ing from the bench, the spectators In
the rear of the room rose in their
seats and started to cheer when the
defendant was acquitted.
Almost Immediately Mrs. Eaton,
accompanied by her lawyers left the
courthouse. With all possible dis
patch Mrs. Eaton left forNAssinippi to
rejoin her aged mother, Mrs. Vir-
gina Harrison, and her daughter.
Dorothy Eaton
Delay Worried Watchers.
1t had been expected by friends of
the accused woman that very few
ballots of the jury would be necessary
to acquit Mrs. Eaton, but when the
hours began to drag on the less san
gujne began to predict a disagree
ment. Very few who followed the
rial closely believed that Mrs. Eaton
would be found guilty. One of the
most optimistic Of the group that
0"dlLeu lile NeIuICl was miS' Eaeoh .
attorney, william A. Morse, who kept
SAYING that he felt morally certain
that his client could not be convicted
on the evidence.
About 5 o'clock unwonted activity
in the jury room indicated that de-
cision had been reached This shook
the sleep from the eyes of the patient
watchers, and the seat, in the court
, room were soon fillet. A message
was dispatched to Judge Aiken at his
home, and within short time the
jurist had taken his place upon the
bench.
Mrs. Eaton, who had spent the night
tossing upon pallet in the executive
chamber of the judge, was aroused
and led into the courtroom. Although
pale, she showed great composure,
being buoyed up by the constantly
reiterated declarations by her lawyers
that she would be acquitted Her
paleness was accentuated by her
black dressa but she showed no out
ward agitation
Stiffness creets Verdict.
Absolute quiet prevailed while the
court put the question as to whether
or not the jurors had agreed upon a
verdict and as to it's nature.
The foreman of the jury replied,
mot guilty" and then sat down.
The stiffness for a few moments re-
manned unbroken. In the dim light of
the lamps, for dawn had not yet bro
ken, the figures in the room sat mo-
tionless Then the overstrained feel
ings gave way.

CHICAGO, March 25-Reports concerning the ap-
palng nature of the floods in Ohio and Indiana which
in most instances, it impossible to verify re
ceived tonight from widely scattered The most
serious OF these were:
An unconfil1ned report from Springfield, O., that
5000 lives had been lost at Dayton and 800 at Pqua.
A report apparently more fully authenticated from
indianapolis that from POO to 800 had been drowned at
Peru, Ind.
A message received at Phoneton O., that the reser-
vor at Hamilton had broken and that 1000 persons had
been drowned
Continued efforts for the velification futile An
unconfimned but persistent from Marion, lnd that
the Grand reservoir at Cena o.. had gone out causing
an unprecedented flood in the Wabash valley.
Late reports from Delaware, o.. said that 70 to 100
were dead. More conservative estimates cut these re-
ports in half.
In few it possible to trace these reports to
any definite source.
Floods almost unprecedented in area, following the
tornadoes and rain of the last three days. today swept
four states of the Mississippi valley causing loss of life
that may into the hundreds, and damage to property
amounting TO many millions Of dollars.
Ohio and Indiana, and in a lesser degree Illinois and
Missouri, felt the brunt Of the disaster
Millions of dollars in property damage has already
been incurred and the flood still is the increase.
From indianapolis came reports of one hundred
thousand homeless throughout Indiana and property
loss reaching the enormous figure of OOOOO0O in the
cities towns and villages alone This does not include the
losses to farmers The loss of fe while not so great as
in Ohio has not yet been estimated.
The climax of the flood in Ohio was reached at Day
