Doctor Says One Of Victims
Died Two Weeks Before

LA TORTE. Ind.. Mav C A possiblo
' solution of tho Bello Guineas farm mys
tery, which deepened today when four
additional bodies were found in tho
j barnyard, dovelopcd this afternoon. Evi-
denco of nino dismembered corpses un-
earthed yesterday and today having
been shipped to this city, probably from
Chicago, camo to light in tho testimony
of a drayman who carted trunks and
boxes to tho Guineas home, bearing this
out.
In addition, local authorities received
information of two trunks consigned
to "Mrs. Bello Guincss" baing held
In tho express office- in Chicago, and the
assistance of tho Chicago police in un
raveling this puzzle was sought at once.
Two of tho nine mutilated bodies
wore identified in a qualified way this
afternoon. Antono Olson of 2110 Indi
ana avenue, Chicago, reviewed tho re
mains supposed to be those of Jennie
Olson, the sixteen-year- old foster
daughter of Mrs. Guincss, and pro
nounced them those of his daughter. A
sister of tho dead girl, Mrs. Leo Olan
dor, 2S18 South Park avenue, Chicago,
accompanied her father and added tes
timony about her sister's characteris
tics. A. K. Helgclin, whose inquiries re
garding his missing brother, Andrew,
led to the first discoveries on tho
Guiness farm, became sure that the
largest and best preserved of tho
corpses is his relative Against this,
however, is the evidence of an autopsy
performed on tho particular body by
Dr. J. H. William Meyer. He found
contradictory conditions which in his
mind, at least, proved that the dead
man perished long after Andrew Helge-
l. lin disappeared in January last, evon
going bo far as to say that the corpse
showed evidence of having been, in the
ground less than two weeks. A. K.
Helgclin, however, refused to be con
vinced by theso findings.
Kay Lamphcre, held on tho charge of
first degree murder growing out of
tho fire which destroyed tho Guincss
homo and caused the deaths of Mrs.
Guincss and her thrco children, offer
ed no new evidence despito repeated
questioning.
Ralph M. Smith, prosecuting attorney
of the district, asserted, however, that
a confession is not necessary so far
as Lampherc is concerned. "Wo have,"
said he, positive evidence in tho shape
of letters connecting Lamphero with tho
recent murders on tho Guineas farm."
Tho exact uaturo of the letters is
carefully guarded by Smith.
At attempt to identify ono of tho
corpses as that of OIo B. Rudosburg, of
lola, Wis., was also started by tbo
sheriff's office here. In response to
telephone messages sent there, word
camo tonight that a member of tho
Eudeburg family loft there for this
tM Delving itno tho past of Mrs. Guincss,
Ktbo local authorities find one uncxplain-
vu ui-iiui m mu unmcuiaio lamiiy,
whicn, they think, may shed somo light
on the present tragedv.
Six years ago thorc was at the farm!
a child named Swanhilda, supposed to
havo been a daughter of Mrs. Guincss
by her first husband. Tho girl was then
about eight years old. Dr. II. II. Mar
tin of La Porte, was called to attend
her one night and -diagnosed the caso
as an attack of bronchitis. Thrco days
later tho child was dead. Dr. Martin
not having been called in tho interim,
rofused a death certificate for tho in-'
fant, it is said, and it was buried with
out tho fulfillment of tho legal require
ments. Tho coroner is considering tho
advisability of exhuming tho body for
tno purpose of an autopsy.
The Guincss farm was a mocca for
sightseers today. Tho crowd becamo
m dense and tho rpad so choked that
it was almost impossiblc-for lato comers
to forco their vehicles through.
With morbid intorcst, men, women
and children pushed their way toward
the spot where tho sheriff and his mon
were turning up the earth, and refused
to draw back. Finally tho sheriff ap
pealed to tho police to keep tho crowd
back.
Relieved .of this hindrance, tho ex
cavators redoubled their efforts and
within half an hour wore rewarded.
Firsh a few scattered bones wore turn
t'd up, then a skull was uncovered. Dig
ging around this, another corpso was
exposed, beyond this a second and then
yet another. x
Ono of the bodies of this second
charnel pit is believed to be that of
a woman. Tho other two and that
found earlier, arc probably men. Of
the nino cadavers, seven are males. All
tho remains are thoso of adults, tho
two smaller bodies found yesterday,
which were first thought to havo been
thoso of children, proving otherwiso
whon tho bones had been inspected by
9 tho coroner and his assistants today.

Into Harbor and
SAN FRANCISCO, May 0. Through
tho towering rocky portals of tho Gold
en Gate into tho harbor of the city of
n hundred hills, tho Atlantic battleship
licet steamed toijay in review boforo
a multitude unnumbered. It was tho
samo imposing pageant of immaculate
whito ships that sailed from Hampton
Roads nearly fivo months ago in tho
wake of tho president's Hag, but with
splendid accomplishments, n record
breaking cruise of moro than 14,000
miles and three weeks of wonderful tar
get work behind 'it. Today whilo an
chorcd, tho four-starred blue flag of
tho secretary of. tho navy flying from
tho mainmast of tho trim littlo gunboat
Yorktown, fluttered tho welcomo of a
nation, whilo tho governor of Califor
nia, tho mayor of San Francisco and
tho peoplo of n hundred towns and
cities voiced the' greetings of the en
thusiastic west.
' Tho exciting thrill of possible adveu
turo lurking dimly in the distant hori
zon, which mnrked tho departure of
tho fleet from its eastern base, is gone,
but there is still today a satisfying
sense of preparedness which travels with
the self-reliant forco of fighting ves
sels, a manifest of prido to nearly a
million residents of the great western
country who gazed for tho first time
upon .tho column of first clas'tf battle
ships. Once insido of the cntrauco to tho
bay and tho heavy vessels of the east
ern coast joined by tho armored cruis
ers of tho entire Pacific fleet, tho navy
of tho nation all savo a few newly
commissioned or reserved ships of the
Atlantic and somo patrol boats scat
tered in the Orient joined in the par
ade, which for impressive beauty and
strength of fighting timber has never
been equalled.
Forty-four vessels, ranging from tho
10,000 tonncd Connecticut and fivo sis
ters of her class down to the tiny tor
pedo boats no larger than a racing
launch, passed through tho harbor to
tho anchorage grounds south of tho
Market street ferry terminals, where to
night, outlined by firo and electric il
luminations, they will lie in four long
lines awaiting tho review of Secretary
Mctcalf Friday morning.
The parade maneuvers, and anchor
ing occupied fully four honw and gave
the peoplo who -made bta'ek the hills
of tho city, islands and harbor, tho
house tops and mountain heights twen
ty miles away, the most wondrous nav
al spectacle they had over known, for
after all, whatever may be the elaborate
festivals plauned ashore to welcome the
fleet, the ships themselves steaming
along in varying formations, rally pre
sent a picturo most beautiful to see.
No black hulled navies of other na
tions can ever match the wondrous im
pressions the white ships of tho At
lantic fleet created at home and
abroad.
San Francisco, Oakland and other
cities nearby all took a holidatto
witness tho coming of tho fleet. There
was a complete cessation of business
and streets in the down town sections
woro absolutely deserted. Banks and
business houses closed for the day and
everybody flocked to tho hillsides over
looking the gateway to tho harbor.
Moro peoplo camo into tho city last
night and this morning than left dur
ing tho terror of tho homeless days
following the fire. Tonight the city
is gay with merrymaking and a long
program of entertainments which havo
been plannod in honor of the fleet are
well under way.
.The' fleet threaded its way through
tho crowded harbor, past islands and
ferry lanes reaching far over to tho
Oakland shore and turned at last when
opposite Hunter's Point, pointing to
ward the Golden Gato and steamed
slowly into nnchorago formation.
The parado maneuvers wero mado
without the slightest hitch anywhere
or suggestion of an accident. An ex
cursion fleet was kept out of tho war
ship's pathway by patrol revenue cut
ters and all ferry scVvico was suspend
ed during tho parade.
Rear Admiral Roblcy D. Evans, com
mander in chief of the Atlantic licet,
jUst now in command of tho assembled
ships of both oceans, stood on tho after
bridge of the Connecticut as the fnmous
flagship led the way through tho har
bors of tho gato until she camo to
anchor at the head of the battloship col
uinns.
His presence gave a fitting touch to
tho closc'of tho first great stage of tho
cruise. His active naval career is to
close Sunday next, when ho will bo ro-
licvod from command. Both because of
the illness and death of his favorito
gianehild, Admiral Evans will bo un
able to participate in any functions
plnnncd in honor of tho officers. Ho.
probably will rido at tho head of tho
great land display which is to bo made
tomorrow with moro than 8,000 blue
jackets and marines in line.
Always a harbor of picturesque beau
ty, San Francisco bay today provided
a wonderful sotting for tho most re
splendent of many marine pictures of
the whito fleet ever painted. Tho ships
lay at anchor all last night off San
Francisco lightship, with tho twinkling
lights of Farrollono island plainly in
view. Tho fog which closed down dur
ing tho night still hovering over tho
ships as they got under way at 11
o'clock this morning.

away, however, when four miles away
in the ocean tho ships came into full
view of the thousands lining tho shoros
to tho north of tho gateway and Mouut
Tamalpais, crowded with early risers
who sought a place of vantage to view
tho spcctaclo of tho fleet in mininture.
Fort Baker, witli fifty-tbn guns
mounted higher than any weapons of
similar weight in tho world, was also
thoruged with the sightseers. Near tho
cntrauco to tho sloping Marin shores
all the way from tho hoights down to
Lime Point, marking the north point
of the inner gate, was fairly covered
Vith enthusiastic thousands. -
Tho cannon on tho Presidio at Fort
Baker boomed a national salute of
twenty-ono guns a the Connecticut
passed within the headlands o ftho gate.
Tho compliment never had been paid
before between two branches of tho ser
vice, and was returned by tho Connec
ticut amid loud cheers from tho people
on tho shore.
As tho ships passed the fort and Lime
Points and entered tho bay, tho rolling
hills of tho city lay to the .ight. Oji
all these tho people of the city and
a hundred thousand visitors stood and
I stared. They aw the splepdul cruis
ftTH of the Pacific fleet lift anchors from'
bchin Angel island and slip carefully
down tho lino marked out for the bat
tleships and then as the visitors from
tho east passed, the West Virginia, tho
flagship of Rear Admirnl Dayton, in
command of tho Pacific fleet, turned
skillfuljy into perfect alignment just
in tho rear of the Wisconsin, tho
last of the eighteen battleships stretch
ing in a long lino beforo the city. Tho
West Virginia was followed by her
seven sisters, by tho Charleston and by
tho torpedo craft of the western sta
tion. They took places four hundred
yards apart just as tho battleships
formed tho column. Tho cruisers never
appeared to better advantage than in
contrast with the battleships. Tho
West Virginia towered far above the
Wisconsin and her 502 foot of waterlino
mndo the SOS foot battleship look al
most like a pigmy. Tho long cruisers
with sky reaching masts and four buff
funnels without doubt aro tho hand
somest ships in tho navy.
No class of citizens of the city wero
more "interested in tho coming of tho
fleet than tho Chinese. Tho new pa
goda liko buildings that mark tho re
cent Chinatown wero crowded with resi
dents of tho quarter during the time
tho fleet was entering the harbor and
the streets were gay with lantorns and
decoration of lavish beauty. Japanese
residents also gathered in largo num
bers on tho hillsides to heo tho pageant.
They contributed nearly $3,000 to tho
local reception fund, to which tho Chi
neso were also liberal subscribers.
After tho fleet anchored a launch put
off from the Mission street wharf bear
ing Mayor Taylor and a reception com
mittee of bay cities' officials with
greetings nnd to proclaim a formal wcl
como to Rear Admiral Evans nnd tho
sailors. Tho launch reached tho flng-
ship at 3 o'clock.
Tho mayor and coinmittco wero re
ceived oil tho quarter deck of tho Con
nccticnt and were taken below to meet
tho admiral. Hearty greetings wero
exchanged between tho admiral, tho
mayor and -members of thff recoption
committee.
Following tho official call, Admiral
Evans camo ashoro and was taken to
the St. Francisc hotel to meet his wife
and daughter.
When the Connecticut passed Angel
island, thq cruiser West Virginia, the
flagship of tho Pacific squadron, which
was lying on tho east Hide of tho island,
saluted the commander-in-chief with
thirteen guns. Tho Connecticut re
sponded.
Tho Yorktown with Secretary Mot
calf on board proceeded to her posi
tion immediately cast of Mission rock
and cast anchor. Eight battleships
came to anchor in a lino astern tlo
flagship. The Minnesota first broke the
singlo lino formation, turning sharply
from a soml-circle, sho hooded tho
second lino to tho anchorage ground.
Turning more sharply still, tho West
Virginia steamed to her anchorajgo at
the head of tho third line, and lastly
camo tho auxiliaries, Panther, Glacier,

STOLEN FUNDS
Send Back $1,000' Bills Taken
From Chihuahua, Mcx.,

KEEP SMALLER BANK NOTES
.Action Of Robbers Causes the
Release in Mexico of
All Suspects.
EL PASO, May 0. Many thousand
dollars secured in $1,000 bank notes bv
bank robbers from tho Banco Mincro
at Chihuahua, Mexico on March 1, wero
received yesterday at Chihuahua from
Juarez, where packages containing tho
money were deposited in tho mail.
Following tho bank robbery, many
arrests wero made, but efforts to lo
cate tho money proved fruitless, al
thonghsecrct service men wero con
stantly engaged in trying to trace it.
The return of tho money to tho bank
yesterday created a furore, causing tho
rcleaso of all suspects hold. A tele
gram was immediately sent to El Paso
by Governor Enrique Creel to 'A. T.
Sanders, a secret service man.
Sandes, who is stopping at tho Shel
don hotel, was informed bv Governor
Creel that all of tho $1,000 bills had
been recovered. The bills were consign
ed to the governor, who wired tho se
cret servico man to go to work at once,
with Mayor Matcus of Juarez, for tho
purpose of ascertaining who deposited
tho money in the mail.
Governor Creel, it is said, is of the
opinion that tho money wasvarranged in
pnekages in Chihuahua, and then sent
to Juarez to be mailed .back to Chi
huahua in order to throw the secret
servico men off tho trail.
It is presumed that the robbers who
secured the money wero afraid to try
to get tho $1,000 bills exchanged for
smaller bills as every bank in Mexico
nnd along the border of the United
States was notified to bo on tho look
out for bills of such denomination.
It is said that no trace has been se
cured of the $100, $50 and $20 bills
which were a part of tho $295,000
taken when entrance was gained to the
vaults by removing some of tho mason
ry.

Tho city council is anxiously await
ing the report of Engineer Olmstcad of
Los Angeles, on the proposed sewer
system for-Globe to cost in the neigh
borhood of $75,000. The present coun
cil wants to put the sewer proposition
through, thereby establishing a record
for city improvements for the city's
first council. -
Tho council will meet tonight, but
there is littlo chance of the Olmstead
report being received in time f6r to
night's meeting. However, Olmstead
has made a report on the water supply
for Globe, which has been received by
City Engineer Howard Wayne and will
be submitted to the council tonight.
If no word is received from Engineer
Olmstcad by the timo for tonight's
meeting, tho council will take steps to
hurry the engineer in his report. Many
telegrams have been sent to him by the
council urging him to rush the report
so tho present city fathers could act
upon it favorably before they go out
of oflico in June.
If the report is received in the next
week tho council will be satisfied as
it can then approve tho report and call
an election on the bond issue to-cover
the cost of tho proposed system. It will
then be up to the property owners to
decide whether Globe is to have a-sewer
system or not.
There is now talk among the proper
ty owners living south of Maplo street
of petitioning the council to take that
section within the corporate limits of
the city so they can derive benefit from
tho proposed new system. Maple street
is tho south limit of tho city and moro
than 500 peoplo live in that neighbor
hood outside tlie city limits. Some aro
opposed to being taken into tho cor
porate limits of Globe because thoy
would have to pay moro taxes.
Dr. B. D. Fox, city health officer and
city physician, estimates that the city
will save $00,000 a year in human lives
nnd $20,000 in the cost of typhoid epi
demics by putting in a new sewer sys
tem. "Last summer there were 117 cases
pf typhoid fever between April 24 and
December 27, caused by unsanitary con
ditions in the city, which will all be
eliminated by the new sewer sj-stem,"
said Dr. Fox. "There wero twelve
deaths from typhoid fever last summer
and valuiug a human life at $5,000,
which is about th6 lowest valuation to
bo placed on life, the city lost $60,000
last year in human lives, because it had
no sewer system. That amount itself
is almost enough to pay for the pro
posed system.
"I figure that tho cost'of tho typhoid
epidemic, outsido tho lives lost, would
amount to $20,000 in wages lost by tho
men sick, expenditures they mado owing
to the sickness, etc. Eighty-three men
were laid up with typhoid fever last
summer. I have figured that tho total
cost of last summer's typhoid epidemic
would pay for the proposed new sower
system.
"Not a caso of typhoid has been re-,
ported this summer, and the epidemic
opened six weeks earlier than this last
year. The city was given a good clean
ing up this spring; lots of good work
was done, and that accounts for the
more healthful condition of the city
this vear over last year. But wo will
continue to have typhoid as long as
unsanitary shallow cess pools arc per
mitted in the city."
"The proposed system will cover eack
street in the city, according to what
Mr. Olmstcad said after he had inves
tigated the situation here," said Georgo
R. Hill, city attorney, yesterday. "The
individual will pay for his sewer from
his property lino to his home and tho
water company has assured tho city
that it will mako all connections for
$0 a year, so propcrtvvowners may not
fear exorbitant water rates.
"Tho city has not a cent of indebt
edness and can easily stand a bond is
suo for $60,000 or $SO,000. The city
will havo twenty-five years in which to
pay this indebtedness off and tho prop
erty owner will hardly notice the in
crease in his taxes.
"I figuro the increased taxation tor
the proposed sewer will be seven mills.
"This -will be tho first mortgage on
tho city and it will be for a nominal
amount. Tho bonds ought to sell very
readily and there is no doubt in my
mind but what tho sewer system will
increase tho value of property in Globo
moro than 25 per cent.
"Ono advantago to tho city will be
that 50 per cent of tho cost of tho
sower will bo spent right hero in Globe
