New Castle, Ind, June 9.-Develop-

Winters, the 9~-year-old daughter of
DR.. w. A. Winters, a dentist of this
city, who mysteriously disappeared a
little more than a year ago, will be
only temporarily halted so far as Of
ficials here are concerned, by the au-
tomobile accident in which Sheriff
Bouslog and other officials were badly
injured while working on the case.
1t is feared the sheriff may not re-
cover. He is said to have been work

in the event he does not mend rapidly,
his information will be turned over to
others and the work continued.
Robert II. Abel, the private detec-
tive who caused the arrest of DR.. Win
ters, his wife, and Ross Cooper, a for
mer boarder in their home, announces
that he is coming back to New Castle
to continue the fight.
In a message TO Mayor Watkins,

When he departed after quarreling
with the prosecuting attorney, w. R.
Meyers, because the latter would not
place charges of murder against DR..
and Mrs. Winters and Cooper, he took
with him certain photograph records
and other evidence. Following the de-
parture Of Detective Abel, Mayor
Watkins and Prosecutor Meyers held
a conference and decided to drop the
charges against the three accused
persons.
Mr.. Abel, when here a week ago,
outlined the discoveries which he
made in the basement of the Winters

Washington, June S.-All three bills
on the administration trust legisla-
ton program have passed the house
and are now before the senate for ac-
ton there.
Voting Done Quickly.
Opposition melted away when the
final test came in the lower body and
the voting went through quickly and
without incident.
The Covington interstate trade COM
mission bill was passed without a rec
ord vote; the Clayton omnibus anti
trust measure received 275 votes to
81 against it and the vote on the Ray.
burn railroad capitalization bill was
325 to IL.
The clerk hardly had finished the
last roll call before the house had set
tied down to consideration of the sun
dry civil appropriation bill, one Of
several supply measures that must be
disposed of before the session ends.
The adjournment problem now is
%squarely up to the senate and the
Democratic leaders on that side Of
the capitol are expected to agree upon
q program in the near future.
Action Rather Unexpected.
Action on the trust bills in the
house came rather Unexpectedly.
Three measures had been agreed to
in committee of the whole" after
weeks of speech-making, considera-
ton of the Rayburn bill as amended
by the committee, being completed
late this afternoon.
When the trade commission bill
came before the house for a final vote
Progressive Leader Murdoch moved
commerce committee with i~nstruc-
tons to report the Murdoch bill as a
substitute. This was rejected, ISL to
Is, and the pending bill was passed
without a roll call.
Votes in Rapid Succession.
Then the votes on the other two
measures were taken in rapid success
sion.
Representative White of Ohio was
the only Democrat to vote against the
Clayton bill and all the Progressives
voted for it except Representative
Chandler of New York. Forty-three
Republicans and 16 Progressives joined
the majority in supporting the meas
ure.
Senate Committee Reports But One.
Washington, June 8.-The senate in
terstate commerce committee voted to
report out only the trade commission
measure of the trust bills. The action
was construed by many as an indica-
ton of limitation of the administra-
tons program at the present session
of congress. There was no record
vote. In a general discussion, some
senators opposed the motion and 9TH
ers declared themselves opposed even
to the bill at the present time. Chair
man Newlands said the committee
later might take up supplemental leg
i%slation.

Montreal, June S.-With further de-
velopments in connection with the
Empress Of Ireland disaster lacking,
the public has settled down to await
the official investigation that is to be
begun on June 16, with Lord Mersey
as chairman Of the commission of in
quiry. There is confusion in the pub
lie mind as to whether the investiga-
ton is to be held at Montreal or Que
bee, but Ottawa dispatches received
here mention Quebec as the scene of
the inquiry.
1t is believed by many here that the
Empress may be raised, though the
Canadian Pacific railway officials have
been careful not to make statements
tending to confirm this belief. There
is a general desire that all the bodies
possible shall be recovered from the
wrecked vessel. 1t is thought that
divers may be employed to extricate
the imprisoned bodies and the ship
blown up after the bullion in it has
been brought out.
Lloyds, the insurance underwriters
of the sunken steamer, it is said here,
will probably investigate the chance
Of floating the ship. although no off,
cial announcement to that effect has
yet been made.
Arrangements are being made by
the Montreal Board of Trade to open

survivors and sufferers from the die.
