merly occupied by the Winters, but
so far as has been made public the |
failed to disclose any |
thing that would indicate that the
child had been murdered.
DR.. winters. his wife and Cooper
have been at liberty ON bail since their
arrest. All three stoutly maintain
their innocence of the charges made
against them. They declare that the
disappearance of the child is as much
a mystery to them as to anyone.
Cooper is a railroad telegraph opera
tor, and has been in Newcastle about
seven years. According to his own
statement he went to Indianapolis
March "a. four days after the disap-
pearance of the child, and did not re-
turn until March 81, 1913.
Lack Of Motive.
One Of the most battling features in
connection with the case is the appar-
ent lack Of motive either for the kid
mapping or the murder of the child. A
thorough investigation was conducted
on the theory that the girl might have
been stolen by gypsies, but not the
slightest clue was found to support
the theory. On the other hand the
financial circumstances Of DR.. Winters
seemed to preclude the idea that the
child may have been kidnapped for
the purpose of securing a ransom.
Both of these theories we're long ago
dismissed as unreasonable by the de-
tectives employed to investigate the
case.
On the other hand, there appears
to be no adequate evidence indicating
a motive for the murder of the little
girl. One theory advanced by the de-
tectives connects Mrs. Winters and
Cooper, and the other is that the child
might have been unwelcome at the
home. So far as public knowledge
goes there is absolutely nothing to
substantiate either theory.
There is a reward of $4,000 out
standing in connection with the case
but most of the money is for the safe
return of the child alive. The mayor
of Newcastle, the judges of the local
courts and the bankers and leading
business men Of the city all have con
tributed to the fund and have other
wise lent their aid in the efforts that
have been made to solve the mystery.

THRILLING HISTORY OF HER
DISAPPEARANCE REVIEWED IN FULL
No Adequate Evidence A. To Motive
For Murder Of Little Girl, But
Strange Circumstances Surround
phvsiclan and His Wife-Boarder In
House Also Indicted.

Newcastle, Ind, July 9.-Another
chapter in the Winters kidnapping
case will be started in the circuit
court here tomorrow, when DR.. w. A.
Winters, father of the missing child;
her stepmother. Mrs. Byrd Winters,
and w. H. Cooper, a former boarder
at the winters home, are to be placed
on trial on charges made against them
some weeks ago. The three are
charged with conspiracy to commit
a felony by conspiring to kill the child
by strangling or otherwise, and to
destroy the body by burning"
The question uppermost in the
minds of all the people of Newcastle
today is whether the coming trial
will solve the mystery of the disap-
pearance of nine-year-old Catherine
Winters. Most persons who have fol-
lowed the case closely incline to the
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1914-07-09

opinion that the mystery will not be-
solved. N f
Catherine Winters disappeared on
March 20, 1918. The child had been
canyassing the neighborhood in which
she lived, trying to sell needles for a
church society. She was last seen
late in the afternoon and when she
did not return home it was believed
she had gone to the homeof neigh
Dor for dinner. The police were not
notified until the next day.
The child was the daughter OF
winters by his first wife, who died
several years ago. Catherine and her
little brother inherited $4,000 on the
death of their mother.
For many months after the disap-
pearance of the little girl a nation
wide search was made for her. The
father made many trips, some to dis.
tant parts Of the country, to run down
clues as to the whereabouts Of the
child. Her picture was displayed in
moving picture theatres throughout
the country in the hope that someone
might recognize the little girl.
Suspicion Surrounds Father.
From time to time reports have
been circulated that DR.. Winters was
not sincere in his search for the miss
ing child and that he had used a con
siderable part of the funds raised to
conduct the search for other than the
purpose intended. Matters reached q
climax on May 80 last, when DR.. Win
tiers, his wife and Cooper, the former
boarder, were taken into custody. Al
the same time a search was made OF
the Winters home in an effort to find
something that might throw light on
the mystery. The search is said to
have disclosed a red sweater and a
red ribbon used for the hair concealed
in a cement block in wall under the
house and a red-stained garment un
der furnace ventilating pipe. En-
couraged by the finding of the cloth
ing, the police took up the cellar floor
and other parts of the premises with
view to learning whether or not a
body might be concealed. A similar
search was made of another house for

BOY, IS, SEES CIVILIZATION
FOR FIRST Time IN SEATTLE

SEATTLE, Dec. George
Porter, half white, half Eskimo.
and IS years old, has discovered
Seattle! And to George who new
err before had been out of the fro
zen North, where he was born, it
was indeed a remarkable discov-
ery-as remarkable, almost. as
Christopher Columbus discovery
of America.
The nearest young Porter ever
had been to civilization before he
came to Seattle was when he went
from his birthplace, Hirschell
island in the Arctic ocean, to far
off Unalaska, one of the outer
most of the Aleutian islands,
where for seven years he attended
the Methodist mission, the Jessie
Lee home conducted by DR.. and
Mrs. Newhali.,
Captain Cattle of the whaler
Belvedere brought young Porter to
Seattle.
Since his arrival he has found
life in big city one wild adven-
ture.
The first thing he saw was an
oblong box as big as house, set
on wheels on a track in the street.
The box had windows along the
side and doors at the end, and
there were people inside. A pole
reached from the roof to a wire
overhead and when a man in the
front of the box turned a crank
the whole thing moved!
Captain Cattle explained to
George that he could ride i'm box
for nickle. George tried it. The
box went like the wind. The man
in front could stop it any time he
to. George liked it so we'll
that he spent five nickels for
street car rides!
Automobiles are baby street
cars, according to George Porter.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Dec. Z.
The importance OF the tele-
graph and telephone as a military
adjunct has been driven home as
one of the principal lessons of the
European war. Congressman ID.
J. Lewis of Maryland is much int
pressed with what he learns Of
the use OF the telephone and tele-
graph In actual conduct of the
vast battles which are a novelty in
warfare; and he finds in such use
all argument for government own
ership and operation OF the wire
systems In this country.

formation at first hand from
Charles Edward Russell who was
caught In the maelstrom OF war
while on the continent, and who
assisted Brand Whitlock in caring
