MAY SOLVE MYSTERY
Grand Jury in Indiana VIII Probe
Disappearance Of Catherine
Winters.

NEWCASTLE, Ind, Oct. 7.-Deter-
mined to solve the mystery of the dis
appearance Of little Catherine Winters
last March, the grand jury today began
a searching inquiry into the case, un-
der special instruction from Judge
Jackson. The mystery has been as
battling as the famous Charley Ross
and Dorothy Arnold disappearance.
Catherine Winters, on her way home
from school, disappeared on the after
noon of March 20, as il the earth had
suddenly opened and swallowed her.
A nationwide search by county, state
and federal detectives and sleuths
from the best private agencies of the
country, failed absolutely to unearth
the slightest clue to the child's where
abouts or the manner of her death-if
that were her fate. However, County
Prosecutor Evans, recently unearthed
what he believes are important clues
which make him believe the child is
still living The child's pictures have
been almost as widely printed as those
Of Dorothy Arnold.

LOOKS DARK FOR SULZER

ALBANY, Oct. THE Sulzer i'm
peachment court in executive session
today voted Al to IA to overrule Chief
Justice Cullen's decision that the tes-
timony of Allan A. Ryan before the
court yesterday was inadmissable. The
voting indicated an overwhelming
anti-Sulzer sentiment. The outlook
for Sulzer is considered dark.
Ryan was recalled and oonsidera-
bly, amplified his story told yesterday.
He not only said Sulzer tried to in
fiuence republican senators through
Senator Root and William Barnes, Jr.,
but also wanted Ryan to have Delaney
Niohol see Boss" Murphy and per-
suade him TO call the Impeachment
trial Off The method the governor
suggested, Ryan explained, was to
have the senate vote that the lower
house had exceeded it's authority in
impeaching him.

NEW YORK, Oct THE first syla-

1918 will be spoken today. Only an act
of congress is lacking to make it ma

big conflict between the New York
Giants and the Philadelphia Athletic
for the worlds title on the diamond.
With il comes the final blowoff OF
baseball enthusiasts the country over.
From dawn until two O'Clock when the
teams were called to the field at the
Polo Grounds countless thousands
poured through the turnstiles. Ihou-

The World Baseball Series.

NEW YORK, Oct LONG before
the dawn of day, a long line of baseball
fans were standing in line outside the
gates of the Polo Grounds seeking ad-
mission to the first game in the world
series between the Giants, of the Ma
tional league, and the Athletics, of the
American league, today.
The man who can guess the outcome
of the series has his fortune made for
now and all time Guesses are as plen-
tiful as watermelons in August 1t ap-
pears to be conceded that teams are
remarkably well matched this year and
the outcome hinges on whether the
hard hitting Athletics can overcome
what is assumed to me the stronger
of the Giants. This is vague.

that many critics feel that John j. Nc
Graw is much better fortified with

CITY TO BUILD

STEPS WILL NOW BE TAKEN TO
FORCE TERMS OF SIDE
WALK ORDINANCE.
Await Arrival of City AttOrney-W. II.
Hunter Filed Claim for Damages
for Injuries Received.

So soon as City Attorney Pickett re-
turns to Moscow the city council will
take the necessary legal steps for in
stalling cement sidewalks in the
cement sidewalk district at all places
where the terms of the ordinance have
not been complied with. This decision
was reached at meeting of the coun-
Gil last night. 1t was stated there that
several property owners on Main street
had failed to pay attention to the for
NAL notice to install such cement
walks and that under the ordinance
the city will build the sidewalks and
either assess the cost against the pro-
perty or start suit to collect the
amounts.
At the meeting last night but little
business was transacted w. H. Hun
ter filed a bill of $86 with the council
for alleged injuries sustained by him
self and wife on September 6 when
they were thrown from buggy in
which they were riding on Third street.
The bill contains the allegation that
his team run into s.rdpile which
was unprotected with danger signals
and thereby caused the accident. The
bill is itemized and asked for $50 dam
ages by reason of injuries to Mrs. Hun
ter. He asks $50 because of loss of !
10 days time at work and Sc medical
attendance. The matter was referred
to the city attorney.
A petition was filed by Matt Matson |
and seven others asking that a side
walk be constructed 125 feet along A |
street from Monroe east covering !
property owned by A. Davis of Lewis
ton. The matter was taken under con-
sideration.
The council last night granted the
petition Of w. E. Heard for the erec-
ton of residence dwelling in Lieual-
lens third addition.

CHICAGO, Oct. THE fact that the
