MANY DEATHS ARE REPORTED More Than 12 Die In Indiana Over Holiday; 20(1 In Nation Indianapolis, Dec. 26. —(U.R) Tragedy, which always stalks the I trail of holiday celebrants, took more than a dozen lives in Indiana I Christmas day. The Whiting fire, in which seven men were cremated and an eighth burned probably fatally, while they were drinking on the second floor of a rooming house, led the mortality list. Murder, suicide, over-eating, and exposure were numbered among the deal h causes. Joe Schar. 55, a professional beggar of Gary, was found frozen to death in an alley. A quarrel led to the murder of Gabriel Sandidge, 35, a farmer In the Cannellton district in Perry county, and his brother. Noah, was injured. Monroe Harding. 35, who allegedly had been ordered from the farm, was held on a murder charge. The hearty Christmas dinner which Mrs. Katie Hefner, 35. of Marion, enjoyed to the utmost, was her last meal. She fell dead Bs she left the table. Heart disease, which developed during a meal, was blamed for the death of Mrs. Eleanor Rathbun of Redkey. She died during progress of Christinas dinner. Despondency caused Mrs. Edna King, 20, to commit suicide by taking poison in Indianapolis. Her mother had died recently. Brady Pierce, 22-year-old Indianapolis street car motorman, was killed when his car plunged through a bridge railing and fell into the water. It was believed he was asleep at the controls.

(By United Press) Christmas celebrations in all parts of the United States were marred by tragedy, a survey by the United Press showed today, accounting for more than 200 accidental deaths. Fires, shootings anu traffic accidents claimed many live*. At Whiting, Ind., seven men were burned to death in a rooming house. Two persons died from gas asphyxiation in Philadelphia, and in New York City the bodies of tour nun. all of whom apparently had been asphyxiated, were found in a moving van. Eleven died of poison liquor in New York and there were fewer alcoholic hospital cases than usual. o —
