INQUIRY CLEARS WOLFORD

Still Trying to Bolve Mystery of Missing Kowenskl. La Porte, Ind., Dec. B.—Following an Investigation of the mysterious disappearance of John Kowenskl, a farm hand employed by Henry Wolford of 000 l Springs township, this county, Prosecutor Smith announced that the charges made by neighbors that Kowenski and Wolford had gone hunting and that Ko wenski did not return, and that later human bones, badly burned, had been found in a stump of a tree on the Wolford place where the two had been hunting, were without foundation. It was established by the testimony that both Kowenskl and Wolford returned from the hunting trip, and that early the next morning Kowenskl arose and left the house, since which time he has not been seen. The authorities are still trying to solve the mystery of Kowenski’s disappearance.
