CONFLICTING THEORIES OF
 MURDER OF A. J. KAISER
Indiana State and Federal Officials
 Unable to Find Clue.

Gary, Ind, Aug. 26.-A maze of cinflicting theories tonight confronted authorities who were trying to solve the mystery surrounding the murder of Rev. Edmund A. J. Kayser of ToI- leston, a suburb.
 Although forty-eight hours have elapsed since Kaysers body, tightly bound with cord, was discovered in a field near his home, state and federal officials tonight admitted that ap- parent1y there was no definite cIew to the slayer or s1ayers or an accept able motive for the killing.
 Belief that Kayser was slain for his pro- German utterance8 and activities was considered by the police.
 Early in the day detectives, sad to be in the employ of the German alli- ance, of which Kayser was president, declared that they found evidence of a Chief of Police Heintz of Gary was inclined to discredit this disclosure.
 George Schnetder, member of the Gary Saxon Verein, who was oues- toned early this morning by Chief Heintz, was released from custody as soon as he told his story and it had been verified. Schneider and Kayger were said to have been unfrieudIy and Chief HefntZ decided to examine Schneider when word reached him that the latter bore signs of an ai- tefcation, which later turned out to be the result of a friendly gcufile with friends the night prior tothe murder.
 Tonight four men, alleged enemies of kayser. were being sought.

ARGUED FOR REASONABLE
 REGULATION OF CAPITAL
President Taft In Address Before San
 Francisco Commercial Club,

San Francisco. Cailf.. Aug, 2e.-For- mer President Taft argued for req sonable regulation of capital and cau- ttoned labor against seeking discrim- inatory legislation in an address here today before the San Francisco Com mercial club.
 He deviated from this line to dis cuss politics, paying his respects to the leaders of the great movement which is not a 'machiner but an organization. with leaders and not 'bosses. He declared keen-witted people don't have to be kicked twice to be made to understand, this move ment soon will become part of po- litfcal history.
 Getting back to his main thought. he said it took the railroads 20 years to find out that the Interstate Com mence act really meant something, but that the lesson had been learned
 NOW" he continued, I've have reached a time when we ought to have reaction and not bind and harass the enterprise and ingenuity of our Amer tcan business communities"
 Labor unions, he said, had done good good for workingmen and therefore, for society. but he hoped for better leaders.
 Men like Gompers and others are lobbying for legislation which is dis crfninatory," Mir. Taft explained. Like the capitalists they are beset with the evil of being intoxicated with power. I hope for leaders who will do away with this dead 1eveIing, and give greater reward for greater efi- ciency in the worker"

 ARABIC VICTIMS MISSING
Those of Dr.. z. F. Wood and Mrs.
 Josephine L. Bruguiere.

New York, Aug. 26.-Notwithstand- ing earlier reports to the contrary, the body of Mrs. Josephine L. Bruguiere, one of two Americans lost when the Arabic was sunk, has not been re- covered, 1t was announced tonight by the White Star Line, nor has the body of Dr. Edmund F. Woods, the other Americans who perished, yet been found.
 Several days ago the line announced that Mrs. Marion Bruguiere, daughter in-law of the dead woman, had re- ceived a cablegram stating that her mother -in-law's body had been recov- cred. This information, it now ap- pears, was erroneous.
 "The British admiralty reports" the lines announcement continues, that although a number of scout boats have continued making a thorough search of the waters in the region of the dis aster, only two bodies have been re- covered-one probably a steward and the other an unidentified woman.
 Careful inquiry now fixes the total number of passengers unaccounted for at IS, with 25 members of the crew, an aditional member of the latter hav- ing expired in the hospital at Queens town, making a total of A persons"
 Ten of the Arabic's survivors, the announcement states, sailed from Liv- erpool yesterday for this port aboard the White Star Liner Adriatic and thirty eight others sailed on the American liner St. Paul which also left Liverpool yesterday for New York. Both ships are due here September 2.
