A BIG AUTOMOBILE PLANT MOURNED
Factory of Haynes Company at Kokomo Was Gutted by a Blaze. Kokomo. Ind., March 1. The Haynes Automobile company was destroyed by fire late Tuesday. The loss is estimated at $750,000. It Ih believed that one workman. George liaucr, a painter, lost his life in the flames. The other employes, numbering about 200 men and women, have been accounted for. The lives of the firemen were Imperiled by the many explosions of paint and oil cans and in rescuing women and girls. The conflagration started w'hen a fhort circuit of an electric wire ignit ed a quart of gasoline with which a new ni'to was being cleaned. The can of gasoline exploded and Immediately the whole assembly room nf the factory was in flames. The fire department was powerless and the blaze spread to a second building, and within two hours the Interiors of both structures were u mass of burning debris. The fire gained such rapid headway that tho department's efforts were confined to saving the plant of the Kokomo Rubber company and to prevent the spark from falling on a tank containing oOO gallons of gasoline in the rear of the factory. Officials of the company declare that more than 100 automobiles were destroyed. The company carried $240,ooo in insurance.

President Haynes is the Inventor of the first gasoline auto In the United States. This machine was completed In IS!) I. The company Is capitalized at $000,000. most of the investors living here and in Portland, Indiana. TO BE TRIED FOR OIL MAN'S MURDER A. O. Truskett to Answer for Slaying of a Lima, Ohio, Capitalist. (American News Service) Independence, Kan., March 1. The March term of the circuit court about to convene here will bo made notable by the trial of Al O. Truskett for the alleged murder of John D. S. Ncely, a prominent capitalist whose home was in Lima, O. Truskett shot and killed Neely In the Palace hotel in the town of Caney, about twenty-five miles southeast of here on the morning of January 7 lust. The slain man was president of the Lima Trust company in his home city and was also the head of several large oil companies in the Kansas-Oklahoma Held, including the Wichita Pipe Line company. The shooting was the result of litigation over an oil lease. On the day before the tragedy Mr. Ncely had arrived in Caney on his regular monthly Inspection of oil and gas Interests. The following morning Mr. Neely was sitting in the hotel office reading a letter. Truskett, sitting opposite, watched him closely. When Neely got up and walked toward the rear of tho hotel Truskett hurried around to the sample room. As Neely passed the door of this room Truskett fired at him twice. One bullet passed through Mr. Neely's heart and the other through his left arm. When employes of the hotel reached the prostrate man he was dead. Truskett surrendered immediately and was hurried In an automobile to the county jail in this city. The killing is believed to have been largely the result of a law suit that had long been pending between Truskett and the Wichita Pipe Line company of which Neely was president. According to his friends Truskett was of the belief that the company was trying to rob him of his rights. Tlie litigation was over a lease to a tract of oil land a few miles south of Caney. Robert F. Goodman a minor Indian, who owned the tract, sold his interest several years ago to Ilugli Benson, an oil man, who later disposed of it to a local oil firm for $400. Truskett paid this firm $9,100 for the lease. Shortly afterward the Wichita Pipe Line company claimed the lease of the tract alleging that it had come into possesjsion of it by lease from parties said to !be interested in the Wichita com pany; The company asserted that the lease to Truskett was not according to law, as the Indian boy Goodman was not of age when he signed away his rights to the property. Truskett asserted that the pipe line company had used undue influence on the Indian boy, had kept him constantly under watch and had finally bought from him the lease on the day he came of age. Public sympathy in this section is largely on the side of Truskett owing in a great measure to the popular prejudice against the pipe line company and its affiliated corporations because of the methods they have pursued in the past. Relatives and friends of the alleged slayer have raised a $20,000 fund and have employed eminent counsel to conduct his defense. The coming trial is expected to be one of the most notable that has taken place In this section of Kansas in many years. A new world's coaling record has Prince of Wales, which took 970 tons of eoal in two hours thirty-six minutes at Dover.

BRIDEGROOM SPOILS DOUBLE WEDDING Shelbyville, Mar. 1. The double wedding, planned for the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Worden, Sunday afternoon, did not take place, as Carl Weant, one of the bridegrooms-to-be, did not put in bis appearance at the
time set for the ceremony, and the!my daughter's telepathic treatment to
bride-to-be and forty of her friends ; i were disappointed. Invitations had been issued for the double wedding, the principals being Miss Mabel Wordon and Hallecsk Floyd Demunbrum, and Miss Violet Worden. and Carl Weant. The time for the wedding was 4 o'clock. At that hour everything was in readiness, the brides were gowned in their robes, and Mr. Demunbrum was there to take his part in the ceremony. Weant had failed to appear and friends among the forty guests present were ! sent out to search for the missing man. An hour later it was learned that he had packed his clothes at the Ross house, where he was a boarder, and left early Sunday morning, his destination being unknown. Ho was with his intended bride the evening before and promised to be at the Worden home at the noon hour Sunday. Miss Mabel Worden and Mr. Demunburm were married an hour later by the Rev. Cloyd Goodnight, of the First Christian church. Demunbrum came here from Madison and Weant from Ediiiburg several years ago, and they have been employed in a local furniture factory. PROTEST TO SILVER FOR BATTLESHIP New York, Mar. 1. The Presbyterian Minister's association of New ' York and vicinity has adopted resolu tions protesting "as citizens and patriots against the proposed presentation of a silver service to be placed I on the United States battleship, Utah, as the gift of the state of Utah." "This service," continues the resolution, " bearing the portrait of Brigham oYung and a picture of the Mormon temple at Salt Lake City, will discredit the state making the gift and be a disgrace to the nation if it is accepted. The insolence of this proposal calls for immediate and empathetic resentment. The insignia of church has no place in the service of a United States Young and a picture of the Mormon church so placed is an insult to the Christian people of the whole country." PUTS OUT FIRE; JUMPS INTO TANK Newtown, Ind., Mar. 1. William Haxton, living six miles northeast of here, near Odell's Corner, is lying at the point of death from burns. He attempted to start a fire with coal oil, thinking ther was no fire in the stove, and an explosion resulted. The oil in the can also exploded, throwing burning oil all over him.

"If I recover my former health I shall have thank " ;aid tho poet of the Sierras," Joaquin Miller, as he tottered out to take his sun bath. The aged man .is looking remarkably better than before the arrival of the young woman, and declares that the need for doctors has passed. Jaunita Monica Miller, who is well known in New York for her literary work, made a wild race across the continent when she learned of the illness of her father. During her flying trip from the East, says her father, she '"treated him teleoathicallv." though just what he means by that Mr. Miller declined to say. "It is enough that I am getting bet ter. I can't go into details now," he added. "I'm too Weak, but through!

The doctors admit that 6ince the coming of Miss Miller the aged poet has grown vastly better. YOUTH IS EATING WAY INTO NAVY Ft. Wayne, Ind., Mar. 1. Dennis Green, a Ft.
