.Says He Knows Nothing of Messages Alleged to Have Been Sent by 5 Pastor Before Murder.

•i'

Harry Hassinger, formerly connected •with the local office of the Western Union Telegraph company and now connected with the Gary office, in a statement issued Monday, declares that the Chicago reports that he had given out information that Rev. Edmund Kayser, the Gary minister who was murdered, had sent dispatches to the German embassy at Washington through his office, grew out of a "con spiracy" of Chicago newspaper men, •who enticed a young operator to drink and plied him with questions when he was not in condition to be responsible for his acts.

Hassinger says he was in no way Connected with the giving out of any information and deifies the reports that he acknowledged that such messages were on file in his office. The fact is, he says, that he does not know whether such messages are on file and does not Care to know. He says he does not "believe the statement that the coroner has said he will demand copies of any telegrams and points out that they only can be obtained by an order of the court.

The young operator referred to, Mr. Hassinger says, is still in the company's service, contrary to reports that the company has demanded explanations of the affair from Hassinger and [the operator, which the former.says has not occurred.

Summer vacations for Terre Haute's little poor kiddies "closed Monday morning when Miss Lena Reading, secretary of the charity organization, brought twenty-three of the children home—the last of the youngsters to enjoy an outinfe at the Fresh Air Mission. It was estimated that one hundred children have enjoyed tne fresh kir, wholesome'food and healthful surroundings at the mission this year and Miss Reading feels very much gyatified at what has been accomplished in the Way of giving these little ones an outing at. the home, which was open since July 18.

The last lot of children were those of the Day Nursery, the institution where they are cared for while the mothers go out to earn bread and clothing for the little ones. Not one of these children was ready to go.home p,nd many tears were shed by the tots and those in charge of the institution *vhen good-byes were. said.

A part of the code governing the conduct of the mission is that every ohild shall have all the food, it wants while there. "Some of them eat six and seven slices of bread and Jelly at one meal," Miss Lizzie Hampe, matron of the mission said., Sunday was always looked forward to with a great deal of pleasure by the tots this past summer for It always meant a chicken dinner and usually ice cream and cake, rare treats for the little ones. "I feel this has. been one of the most successful years in the life of the mission," Miss Reading said. "There was not a child in the mission but who lad a pathetio story or reason for being there."

LONbON, .: Aug. 81.—(Correspondence .of the Associated Press)—Dr. Lyttleton, the headmaster of Eton who ^lad^ the pressbuzzing about his ears last winter for saying in the pulpit that it was the'duty of British christians to forgiv.e the Germans, Is again in trouble' because of his sentiments. This time, Dr. Lyttleton has aroused the British patriots by finding an excuse for the German foreign policy. "Germany," he said, at a public gathering, "has for the past fifty years been- hemmed in and that by methods that might,.be none too creditable to other nations."

He also held Britain's "national covetousness" and "discord" to oo in part responsible for the outbreak of the present conflict.

The Post Js among the papers bitterly attacking the head of Eton. In answer to his charges 'it cites the hole taken by Prussia in the partition of Poland, Germany's seizure of Schles-Wig-ftolstein from Denmark and Al-sace-Lorraine from France and on the other hand the cession of Heligoland by England to Germany and the occupation of German Africa by British consent, to say nothing of Germany's Pacific islands, section of China and a preponderant interest in Turkey, Germany's Baltic frontage is said to repute thp charge of being hemmed In "In Dr. Lyttleton's view we are a nation of Pharisees whose greed brings war about," comments the Post, "while we publicly thank God that we are not as these Germans. The Germans are bad, he says, but the English are also bad. Only Dr. Lyttleton remains pure In a sordid world."

•LONDON, Sept. 6.—Officer casualty lists are again becoming heavy and during the period of July 80 to Aug. 15, the British army lost 207 officers killed, 434 wounded and 41 missing— a total of 682.
