DRY MURDERS
TRACED TO RING
OF BOOTLEGGERS

NEW YORK. Nov. 1O-Evidence that
a ring of bootleggers plotted the death
Of dry agents who have been strangely
murdered in New York and vicinity dur
ing the last few months, is in the hands
of Department of Justice agents, it was
learned today
If further investigation supports the
evidence now on hanc, arrests may be
made shortly.
One of the agents. whose death is un-
der investigation, was James McGuiness,
a nephew of Joseph p. Tumulty, secre-
tary Of former President Wilson. Nc
Guinness was found dead near Bayonne,
N. J., nearly a year ago. After a short
Investigation authorities attributed Nc
Guinness death TO suicide. The same
verdict was rendered in other cases where
agents were found shot Cr hanged. Now,
however, there is reason to believe the
men may have been the victims Of care

NOMEN'S POLICE DEPARTMENT TO GO
BY WILLIAM FORTUNE.

The Red Cross stood by the soldiers
during the war. The soldiers will tell
you how well the Red Cross looked
after rts4ei- needs and their welfare.
And the Red Cross is still standing
by them. If all who have been helped
by the Red Cross in indianapolis since
the close of the war should form in
line for parade-men, women and chill
dren, all fOrme- service men and their
dependents-tlley would make a pro-
cession far greater than that which
followed Marshal FOch through the
streets of the city Nov. 4. In fact,
the number OF cases that have received
attention of the Red Cross in that
time is more than five times the esti-
mated number of persons who took
part in tha FOch parade. The Red
Cross Is spending in Indianapolis this
year nearly twice as much to help
service men and their dependents as
IL derives from memberships and it is
also doing a great work of heipfuIness
to humanity In other fields. Every
person who joins the Red Cross be-
comes a helper in Red Cross work.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-Presidcnt
Harding issued statement to the
American people calling upon them
to support as literally as possible the
American Red Cross call which opens
throughout the. Nation tomorrow.
THE call of the American Red
Cross is the call of country and hu-
manity and 1 earnestly urge my fell
low citizens to make that response
which satisfies the prOmptIngs of a
generous people," President Harding
said.

PEORIA, Ill, Nov. 10.-That the res

A demand for the Immediate return
Of 100000 loaned the International
Union by the Illinois organization will
also be introduced.
William Green, secretary treasurer of
the international, today addressed the
convention in defense of the actions OF
the. recent International convention, mosl
severely criticised by the Illinois miners
Green was invited here at the same time
Lewis was, but Lewis has declined the
invitation
President John Kewis will not ap-
pear before the convention to defend
his course and that of other international
officers in the recent international con-
vention. A telegram from him read
at the convention, stated he was busy
with important matters in Washington
and could not come on such short notice.
His message was in reply to one sent by
President harrington Tuesday In which
the Illinois leader invited Lewis to come
and hear the reports and charges he in
tended to make against the international
chief.

ASKS REHEARING
Indiana Electric Corporation
May Cut Capitalization.

The public service commission had be-
fore 1t today a motion for rehearing
OF the petition Of the Indiana Electric
Corporation for. permission to purchase
seven Indiana utility concerns and to
issue securities to cover the purchase
price. The commission denied the
petition on the ground that the issuance
of S21, 10000 In securities as proposed
would mean over capitalization.
The corporation now asks that the
order be set aside In order that on re-
hearing the petition may be modified.
1t is understood that this modification
would take the form of a considerable cut
In the proposed security issues.
The concerns which the electric cor
poration proposes to purchase are the

Following the unexpected snow fall and
touch of real winter weather yesterday
slightly better conditions will prevail to-
day, according to weather bureau Of
ficials. The forcasters say the public
can expect slightly warmer weather and
no snow fall. The snow fall in In
dianapols yesterday amounted to 3.S
Inches This condition was general in
all parts of central and northern In
diana, the fall in the north section of
the State amounting In some instances to
almost nine inches, according to re-
ports.
From the Mississippi River to the
Rocky Mountains there is warmer area
Of weather prevailing, which probably
will affect local conditions within a short

to mean that all danger Of cold snap
