On Conspiracy Charge

Mrs. Nancy Catherine Renaker,
widow of Leon Renaker, prominent
Winchester business man. who was
slain at his home some time between
the night of July "a and noon of July
26, last Thursday was indicted with
Scobee Hardman and Reese Fox on
a charge of conspiracy in the murder
by the Clark county grand jury.
Renaker carried insurance of more
than $4,000 in favor of Mrs. Rena-
ker.
Hardman and Fox we're confined in
the Clark county Jail, having been ar
rested on charges in connection with
the murder. Hardman had been held
to the grand jury without bond at his
examining trial and bail for Fox had
been fixed at $4,000.

as July rs in the indictment Rena-
ker went home on the night of July
"a and at noon, July 26. Mrs. Renaker

and found the body. He had been
slain with a blunt instrument
Court officials declined to make
public information on which the con-
spiracy indictment was found.
Mrs. Renaker is 32 years old. Her
husband was SO years old.
The indictment of Mrs. Renaker,
Scobee Hardman and Reese Fox did
not come as a surprise to many, as
it was shown at the trial of Scobee
Hardman that he and Mrs. Renaker
had been close friends for long
time. The indictments, it is under
stood, we're returned chiefly on the
evidence of witnesses who testified
at the examining trials of Hardman
and Fox. Hardman and Fox both re-
fused to make any statement in ref
ence to the grand jury finding.
Mrs. Renaker and Reese Fox were
allowed bail in the sum of $4,000 each.
The motion for bail by attorneys
for Hardman was overruled Monday
by Circuit Judge w. r. Shackelford,
who had had the motion under con-
sideration since Friday. Hardman
has been confined in the Clark coun-
ty Jail since August 10. when he was
arrested on warrant sworn to by
Walter Renaker. of Cincinnati, bro
ther of Leon Renaker Hardman was
tried before Judge II. B. Scrivener,
who by virtue of his office sat in the
case at his examining trial after
County Judge R. S. Scobee requested
that he be excused from presiding
in the case due to his relationship to
Hardman, his namesake'
The date for the trials of Hardman,
Fox and Mrs. Renaker has been set
for December IL.

BATTLE MAY SOLVE
PROBLEM In CHINA
Unification of North and
South Await Outcome of
Moves of Rival Armies.

PBKIN, May 20 (Association Press) -
solution of China's internal problems, IL
ciuding unification of the north and
south. await the outcome Of the militar,
activities north OF Tientsin. where the
armies of Gen. Chang Tso-lin and Gen
Wu Pei-fu face each other.
Gen. Wu, who defeated Chang in their
recent campaign near Pekin. has de-
clared he will not fight again If Chang
peaceably withdraws his forces north OF
the Great Wall, as the most important
question to be considered now Is the
establishment of a constitutional gov
ernment
A Tientsin dispatch last night re
ported that Chang's troops had COM
pletely evacuated Lanchow, and that
Chang himself and nineteen trainloads
or soldiers had gone outside the Great
Wall. The retreat was attributed either
to Gen. Wu's outflanking movement or
to trouble in Manchuria.1
Gen. Wu is convinced that Chang con-
templates establishing an independent
empire in Manchuria. but believes the
Republic is capable of overthrowing
such government. 1t is said that IL
necessary an expedition will be sent into
Manchuria to reunite the province with
China proper.
WI has announced that he is sup-
porting unification scheme which he
believes will win the approval of the
Southern Government, headed by Sun
Yat Sen. the seat of which Ia at
Canton. The chief features of the
scheme are:
First7lRecall the old Parliament
which was dissolved five years ago and
restore the provisional constitution
adopted by the Republic during the
first year Of its existence.
Second-Create national army con-
trolled and paid by the Central Gov
ernment.
Third-The civil governors of the
provinces to be responsible directly to
Pekin.
Fourth-Taxes to be collected by the
Central Government only.
Fifth-Local self-government for each
province.
Sixth-The magistrates to be elected
by the people.
I ASeventh--The provincial police, not
for the maintenance of peace in the
provinces.
Importance is attached to the provi-
sion for reassembling the old Parlia-
ment. as the majority of the members
now reside in Canton, and it is be-
lieved that by inviting them to recon-
struct the country WI has removed
any grounds for opposition on the
part OF the Sun Vat Sen.
1t is understood that il the Parlia-
ment is convoked President Hsu Shih-
chang will resign. He took office after
the dissolution of Parliament, and for
that reason DR.. Sun has contended that
his election was illegal
