Mortality figures of the United States census bureau paint a grim picture to substantiate Molyneaux’ prophetic prediction. During the next year, this life expectancy table discloses, 250 veterans of the 1.306 now living, will pass to the greater reunion—greater by hundreds of thousands—that comes in the next life. And by the middle of 1932 more than half those now living will die.

R. EARL PETERS IS QUIZZED BY JURY IN BALLOT PROBE

Democratic Chairman Believed to Have Given Report of Detectives. ; Bu Times Sitrrinl SOUTH BEND. June 12.—R Earl Peters of Ft. Wayne, Democratic state chairman, appeared before the federal grand jury here Tuesday to testify in connection with the investigation of bribery, corruption and illegal voting in Lake county at the ; state and presidential election last November. Peters is believed to have prerented a report made by Bums dej tectives, hired by Democratic political leaders in Gary at the time of the election. It is understood that the Democrats accuse the Republicans of bringing "floaters” into Gary and Hammond for the ballot- ; mg. The government was definitely i committed to an exhaustive probe of political conditions in the entire 1 Calumet district Monday by George Rulison, assistant district attorney and former minister, who is con- : ducting the investigation in the absence of Federal District Attorney Oliver M. Loomis. Floyd Hartzes, i the district attorney of Ft. Wayne district, is assisting in the investi- ! gating. Former Robinson Aid Loomis was formerly private secretary to Senator Arthur Robinson. With the exception of Peters’ evii dence, it seemed apparent that the [ inquiry was more or less at a stand- \ stii l until department of justice | agents are able to make a report of , the under cover work just started. Assistant District Attorney RuliI son was inclined to discount reports that the department of justice had beeen negligent in investigating the reports of corruption. It appears, j however, that the bulk of the work done thus far in the investigation has been a result of activity in the I district attorney's office. Rulison indicated that the federal operatives had made a visit to Lake county last fall, but found nothing to be compared with senI sational revelations thus far revealed to the grand jury. Loomis to Return Absence of Oliver M. Loomis, district attorney, added interest to the Lake county situation. Reports were j circulated that he was absent without leave. It is said he is in Oklahoma : City visiting his wife's relatives. Dispatches from Washington stated ■ that his absence has been known by j the department of justice, and that no conference relative to his actions have been held. Previous to his appointment as district attorney he served as secretary to Senator Arthur R. Robinson. Word received here stated Loomis was on his way home, and would be in South Bend, probably today.

Srcike *Copped ’ 3ut It Takes Eight of Them to Bag Serpent in Case.

CHICAGO, June 12.—The loop's great snake hunt is ended, but it took two detectives and a half dozen uniformed officers to rid the business district of a six-foot bullsnake. The snake caused a near riot Monday night, when it calmly slithered its way into a restaurant. Two policemen emptied their guns, but the snake crawled on unharmed. That the policemen were excited was testified by the fact that they insisted it was fully twelve feet long. This morning an employe in the restaurant spied the bullsnake taking its morning nap in the basement. He called police and the eight officers stood at a respectful distance, opening fire at a given signal. It sounded to passers-by like a renewal of the gang war. A large crowd gathered, speculating on the number of dead. The fears were allayed when the officers emerged from the restaurant proudly bearing the snake, which bore eighteen bullet holes. The corpus delicti was removed to police headquarters, where it wili be stuffed, mounted and exhibited as proof that Chicago police get their game.

Violent electrical storms, accompanied by gales and heavy rains, caused several deaths and heavy property damage o’er eight middle west states, meager reports over crippled telegraph lines indicated today. Elements had taken at least ten lives in that area in the last twen-ty-four hours and many mere were reported injured. The windstorms were general over Illinois, lowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Dakotas, Nebraska and northern Indiana and were caused by a low pressure area around James Bay, Canada, said C. A. Donnel, United States weather forecaster. The storm center was moving eastward today over the Ohio valley and was due to hit the eastern seaboard in a few hours, Donnel said. Five Die in Tornadoes Five persons were killed In tornadoes at Cokata, and Kingston, Minn., early Tuesday. At Waukon, la., Mrs. Edward Rupp, 45. was killed when a windstorm blew down a chicken house, crushing her. Three persons were killed at Elkhorn, Wis., when their automobile was hit by a passenger train. The driver, John Schmidt, was blinded by the storm and drove on the tracks without seeing the train until it was too late. His wife and a daughter, Esther, also were killed. Thomas Templeton was killed here when he took refuge under a freight car and the train was moved, crushing him. A heavy windstorm near Cedar Rapids, la., forced down an airplane in which Clarence C.alybaugh of Davenport and two student fliers were riding. All were injured seriously as the plane crashed and burned. Edward Canty, 3, of Nashua, la., was near death today after being struck by an automobile which was blown from the road by a violent wind. Chicago Hard Hit The storm was general over lowa, Des Moines and Sioux City being almost isolated for several hours Tuesday. Mankato, Minn., was hard hit by a windstorm, the property damage being estimated at $500,000 and several injured. Telegraphic communication with Mankato was cut off, the few meager reports coming from St. Paul. Three heavy rainstorms hit Chicago Tuesday and Tuesday night, causing minor damage to shipping along the lake front. Large signs were whirled into the streets and several pedestrians injured. The wind reached a velocity of fifty miles an hour at times. Several pleasure yachts were overturned and coast guardsmen were busy all day and night securing small boats and rescuing fishing vessels. The loop was in darkness at midafternoon and theater crowds Tuesday night were drenched by a heavy rain that was accompanied by a great electrical display. CHAIN LETTERS DOT Public Warned to Disregard Missives. V The public today was urged to disregard anew form of chain letter, the ‘‘Flanders chain,” which is being circulated here by Postal Inspector A. C. Garrigus. Garrigus urged persons receiving the letter not to be alarmed at subtle threats of bad luck contained in the letters. He said he had received numerous complaints. The letter follows: “The Flanders chain of good luck has been sent to me and I am sending it on to you. Do not break the chain of good luck. Send it to five of your friends whom you wish good luck. "This started on the Flanders fields and goes around the world three times. Do not stop it or you will have bad luck. The fourth day after you send it you will have good luck. This is remarkable how this has come true every time. So send it and see what happens on the fourth day. Send this and four others. Do not keep this.”

World ‘Gives Quarter’ Bn Times Special TERRE HAUTE. Ind.. June 12.—Charles Stevens defies anybody to prove that when a man’s down and out the world “gives no quarter.” "You’re accused of mooching.” said Deputy Prosecutor Sam Davis to Stevens. "Well, sir. I just asked a man to borrow a nickle so I could get out of Terre Haute over into Oakley, HI., where I have a job.” “Would you get out of town if you had a quarter,” queried the prosecutor. "Yes.” Judge Sam Beecher turned to Paul Mullikin, attorney for the man: "Are you willing to give this man a quarter.” interrogated the judge. "Sure, I'll give him a quarter," answered Mullikin. "Well, I'm going to release you and you hang on to that man and be sure you get your quarter,” advised the jurist as the man moved from the court room.

TSETSE FLY DECLARED MENACE TO MANKIND Death of Crawfordsville Child From Sleeping Sickness Cited. The African tsetse fly. which produces sleeping sickness, threatens mankind with devastation. Dr. Roderic H. Rae, director of visual education in Indianapolis public schools, told the Universal Club at the Columbia Club Tuesday noon. "We know of no cure for its sting, which brings sleeping sickness from which victims do not recover,” he said. ‘‘The swat-the-fly slogan never will be obsolete as long as these insidious pests continue to reproduce their kind.” His address was illustrated with steropticon slides. Proof that danger from the insect is imminent, he declared, is the death of a Crawfordsville child from the sickness. EXTRA FLOOR FAVORED In conference with health board members Tuesday afternoon the city council health committee indicated that it may favor a instead of a four-story out-patient building at city hospital, at an additional cost of about $40,000.

JURY NEAR IN CURRY TRIAL Alleged 'Orchard Killer,’ 18, Faces Murder Charge. B.u Times Special , GREENSBURG. Ind., June 12. Completion of a jury late today to I hear the trial of Herschel Curry, 18, on a charge of first degree murder was indicated when attorneys for both state and defense appeared disposed to accept their twelve men from the regular panel without going into the special venire of twenty-five men which had been drawn. Opening statements may be started also. The trial of Curry opened this morning on a change of venue from Bartholomew county, whose grand jury had charged him with the fatal shooting of Hubert Taylor, farmer, on March 5, in an argument over wages.

TWO SOUGHT IN RESORT KILLING Missing "Witnesses Hold Key to Politician's Slayer. Bu Times Special SOUTH BEND. June 12.—Sheriff, prosecutor and coroner of St. Joseph county continued their search today for a man and woman who are said to have been witnesses to the fatal brawl in Ethel Boyer’s roadhouse and beer resort in Penn township early Friday morning. In the meantime the murder of Edward J. Bankert, poolroom operator and small-time politician of Mishawaka, remained as much a mystery as ever. Prosecuting officials have little hope of determining which of the three men now free under bonds fired the shot unless the two missing witnesses can be located. State attorney's office took its first step of record Monday night when it arranged bonds for Howley O. Burke, Elkhart attorney; Alex Sievers, Elkhart justice of the peace, and Marvin Cramer, Mishawaka auto salesman, all charged with involuntary manslaughter and participating in a riot that ended in Blankert’s death. The slayer of Blankert during the liquor brawl was sober enough to dispose of the gun and State's Attorney Harry Taylor finds himself hampered by this lack of evidence.

Panhandle Section Stirred to Depths Over Killing of College Youth. B'l XEA Service AMARILLO. Tex., June 12.—Areal life tragedy with a story as mixed and dramatic as a moving picture scenario, will get its review at the hands of twelve Texas citizens j here, beginning Thursday, when | ex-Judge R. H. Hamilton, prominent in legal and religious circles in Texas for thirty years, goes on trial for the murder of Tom Walton. Tom Walton was a 21-year-old college student—Judge Hamilton’s son-in-law. His marriage to Hamilton’s 17-year-old daughter Theresa was the offense for which Hamilton killed him. It will be up to the jury to decide whether, all things considered, that was sufficient reason. Not in years has this part of Texas, the Panhandle, been stirred by a criminal case. Young Walton was popular in Amarillo, where he lived with his father, a traveling salesman, and his mother, a church worker and the proprietress of a hotel. A large fund has been raised here by public subscription to assist in the prosecution of Judge Hamilton, and two ouyside law firms have been employed to help District Attorney Ed W. Thomerson. Defendant Is Prominent Hamilton, in turn, is very widely known. He once w r as presi- ; dent of Howard Payne Baptist | college, and has served as a member of the appeals commission of the. Texas supreme court. Like his victim’s mother, he has long been an active church worker. The story of the tragedy, revealing a conflict of loves and ambitions almost theatrical in their effect, is strangely like the story of the moving picture, “Coquette,” in which Mary Pickford is now appearing. Only the climax in the plot is different. Walton met Theresa Hamilton at the University of Texas, at Austin, wheie both were students. Their romance dated from last j Thanksgiving, when both fell in love. Theresa has said since that : her father knew of the romance in ; January, and told her that he would I not object to their marriage if they waited until they had finished college. Marriage Angers Father The two did not wait, however, In February they were married. Judge Hamilton found out about it and was extremely wrathy. Walton knew it and was worried. In May the boy left the university and went home to ask his mother what to do about it. “Hamilton had picked out a million-dollar son-in-law, and when Theresa married me he was mad,” he said. Mrs. Walton was confident that everything could be smoothed out. “Go and talk to Judge Hamilton,” she advised her son. “He is a reasonable man—he’ll be sensible about it.” So Walton went to Hamilton’s lawoffices and asked for an interview. Shot Down in Office When the stenographer announced his presence, Hamilton walked straight into the ante-room and shot him dead with a 45-caliber revolver. “I had to protect my family,” he said afterward. From this, it was inferred that some variation of the “unwritten law” would constitute the former judge's defense at his trial. At the inquest, however. 7 heresa took the w.tness stand, described the romance and said that she and Wal-; ton had not been intimate before their marriage. Following that, Hamilton's law partner, H. G. Hendricks, and other friends, testified that Walton had made open threats against Hamilton. Now it is expected that Ham- j ilton will set up a plea of self-de-1 sense. Theresa will be a defense witness, instead of being called by the state, as was originally expected. Warrington Pastor Dies WARRINGTON, Ind., June 12. The Rev.

PRISON HEAD’S SUICIDE LAID TO ILL HEALTH Fogarty Also Was Worried Over Rumored Ouster Plans. FUNERAL ON SATURDAY Commendation of Warden's Work Is Voiced by High Officials. Bu Vnitrd Press SOUTH BEND, Ind., June 12. Despondency over ill health and rumored ouster proceedings against him were blamed today for the suicide of Edward J. Fogarty, 63, warden of the Cook county jail, Chicago, and fourteen years head of the Indiana state prison at Michigan City. Mr. Fogarty fired two revolver bullets into his head Tuesday afternoon at the home of a newphew, Edward F. Keller, county recorder, and died an hour later in St. Joseph's hospital. The warden was alone in the house when he took his life. A sister, Mrs. Charles Keller, residing next door, heard the shots aid found Mr. Fogarty unconscious on the floor, a revolver by his side. Collapsed After Hard Task A few minutes earlier, a South Bend newspaper reporter had shown Mr. Fogarty a Chicago dispatch indicating Cook County Sheriff John E. Treager intended to discharge the warden, who was convalescing from a nervous breakdown. Pacing the floor, he exclaimed: "Missing, huh? They know where I am. I don't intende to go back for several days. I don't know exactly when I will return.” David Moneypenny, who worked under Fogarty at Michian City and was his assistant at Chicago, was appointed warden by Traeger Tuesday. Moneypenny said he believed Mr. Fogarty's breakdown was caused by the strenuous work connected with transferring prisoners from the old Cook county jail to the new $7,000,000 prison a few weeks ago. Mr. Fogarty worked from eighteen to twenty hours a day arranging for the transfer and a few days after it was completed collapsed in the Jail. Warden Nationally Known Mr. Fogarty was born in South Bend April 22, 1866. After completj ing his common school education he became a bricklayer and in 1902 was elected mayor of South Bend. I Twice re-elected, he ended his ; mayoralty career in 1910 and was | appointed warden of the state j prison Jan. 1, 1911. Having served in prison reform work for more than twenty-five years, Mr. Fogarty won national recognition for his treatment of prisoners. Twice he was offered executive positions at the Federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga. Rumors were current two months ago that Mr. Fogarty would displace A. F. Miles as superintendent of the Indiana state reformatory at Pendleton. Governor Harry G. i Leslie admitted having talked with Mr. Fogarty, but said the rumors ' were premature. Mr. Fogarty then announced he would continue at Chicago. Funeral services will be held at the St. Joseph Catholic church here Saturday morning at 10. Burial will be in Cedar Grove cemetery. Fogarty Commended State officials, members of the state prison board and the board of ■ state charities today joined in expressions of commendation for Mr, j Fogarty and sorrow over his death, "I am sorry to learn of Mr. Fogarty’s tragic death.” Governor Harry G. Leslie said. "He was a very valuable man in his chosen line of work and a high type of citizen of his state. His family has my deepest sympathy in their hour of trouble.” B. & 0.
