London. June s.-When Premier AS
Quith rose In the house Of commons
this afternoon to move the second
reading Of the home rule bill for Ire
Land, the house presented an animated
and crowded appearance, greatly in
contrast with the lethargic condition
which had characterized its recent sit
tings.
The scandals in connection with
the governments wireless contracts
and the ill-success of liberal candi-
dates at the bye elections, had created
an uneasy feeling that things were
going badly for the government and
strong "calls" had been issued by ali
the parties in order to secure the un-
remitting attendance of the members
to assure the government against the
possibility Of defeat by a snap divi-
sion.
The conviction Of Cecil Chesterton,
Saturday, on a charge of criminal ilpei
in connection with the Marconi deal
to some extent rehabiitated the cabi-
net ministers in the eyes Of their fol-
divers and silenced the attacks OF the
opposition newspapers, but a large
section of the radical party is extreme
ly dissatisfied with the lack of frank
ness on the part Of cabinet ministers
in regard TO the Marconi affair, While
some Of them consider Premier AS
quith too lax in his attendance on the
parliament.
A division On the home rule bill Is
expected to be taken tomorrow.

Motive Is Revealed.

Coroner Carpenter was summoned
from Grundy Center and arrived at 10
o'clock last night. An inquest was
arranged and was concluded at 3 O'Clock
this morning. Evidence at the inquest
showed that Knisely had been intimate
with his daughter Cora, ased Is, whom,
he killed, and Mrs. Knisely had ac-
cused him of Illicit relations with the
daughter Ella. It was fear Of further
assaults upon the daughter Ella that
caused the mother to protest against
her accompanying Knisely alone to her
place Of employment. It was brought
out at the inquest that these relations
with his daughters had been the cause
Of frequent Quarrels, and when the wife
protested Knisely undoubtedly feared
public exposure and arrest, and there
fore determined to exterminate his en- :
tire family and destroy himself.
The coroner's jury was composed Of
George Frederick, Dave Simms and
Joe whorrsl. Mrs, Knisely was not
summoned - = witness because Of hel
condition following the trayedy. but
witnesses TO whom she hAd told the
STORY testified to the facts. The jury
returned verdict to the effect that
the two children came to their death
by wounds inflicted by the father, and
that Knisely died by his own hands.
knissly Not Drunk.
While the murderer and suicide was
a drinking man and frequently drank
to excess. it is certain that he was not
intoxicated at the time Of the tragedy.
He attended ball game in Beaman
during the afternoon and was sober at
that time and apparently at that time
did not contemplate his awful deed. 1t
is believed that the accusations Of his
wife and his fear of exposure drove
him to an insane frenzy.
Wife Owned Little Farm.
Mrs. Knisely owned the little farm
Of forty acres where the family re-
sided and where, the. tragedy took
place. While the husband was a
splendid specimen OF physical man
hood. he was considered rather shift
less and had not been successful.
First Husband Suicide.
The family came here about four
years ago from near Whitten, where
several relatives at present reside.
Mrs. Knisely was ten or twelve years
her husbands senior, and had been
married before. She has three chils
dren by her first husband. son and
two daughters. The son and one
daughter were not at home at the time,
but it developed at the inquest that
Knisely probably intended to kill the
step daughter who was there.
Mrs. Knisely's flrst husband was Ad
Nablo, former resident Of Clifford
who committed suicide in the depot
at that place twenty or twenty five
years ago.
News Of the double murder and sui
eide spread rapidly thruout this sec
tion of the county and many citizens
rushed to the scene and remained there
thru nearly the entire night. or until
the inquest was completed at 3 o'clock
this morning.
No arrangements have as yet been
made for tha trinle funeral.
