WHAT MOTIVES LEAD TO; CeiMEJF ARSON This is One of the Problems Being Studied By Fire Marshal.

PELKY HOT BLAMED For Death of White Charm pion Luther McCarty.

(National Nwi .Association) INDIANAPOLIS, May 27. What

are the motives which lead to the crime of arson? This is one of the problems -which Is being studied in the State Fire Marshal's office in order that Indiana fires may be properly and intelligently investigated, and arson uncovere.1 where it exists. In Ohio, where such Investigations have been made for the last eleven years under a law similar to Indiana's new statute, five general motives are found as the causes of arson. During 1911, eighty-five persons were convicted of arson in Ohio. With fourteen of them, the motive was to defraud fire insurance companies; twenty-six set fire to property in a spirit of malice or revenge; three persons caused fires to conceal other crimes; eleven Incendiaries were , classed as insane, or "pyromaniacs," and there were convictions in thirty- ' one cases where malicious mischief was the motive for the fire. f. The fac that arson can be discourfaged and arson cases reduced under effective administration of a law such as Indiana now has is shown in Ohio where the number of arson cases reported has decreased from 291 in 1901 to 132 in 1911. On the other hand, there has been a steadily increasing number of convic- , tions, beginning with sixteen in 1901 and ending with the last report that of eighty-five convictions in 1911.

The result is better shewn by this comparison: In 1901 there were reported. 291 cases of incendiarism and there were sixteen convictions. In .1911 there were 132 clear cases of arson and eighty-five convictions. It :Is even more significant to not that 130 warrants for arson'were issued in 1911 one for almost every clearly established case of arson. "From these figures," said W. E. Longley, state fire marshal, "it is not difficult to appreciate the statement of Ohio's fire marshal, John W. Zuber, when he says that 'owing to the activities of this department in the pursuit of persons charged with arson, the moral hazard in Ohio is better than any other state in the union.' " Ohio has, in this way minimized arson. Illinois, on the west of Indiana, has also done much in this direction. -Between these two states lies Indiana which, until now, has offered a ' i comparatively safe haven for the firevbug. '. Every Indiana fire Is now being t carefully investigated and the State Fire Marshal's assistants have been carefully instructed to telephone or telegraph their report whenever a fire , .shows definite evidence of being inticendiary. , Reports on every fire are required ijby the fire marshal law within ten days, these reports being made by township trustees, town clerks and fire chiefs in every community in the state. Whenever possible even routine reports are expected to come earlied than the ten day limit. But, special emphasis has been placed on incendiary fires in order that a deputy may be sent from the fire marshal's office to aid in the investigation.

MOK

BY ED W. SMITH. CALGARY, Alberta, May 27. Luther Mccarty's death in the glove contest here Saturday afternoon with Arthur Pelky was entirely an accident. This was the verdict of the coroner's

Jury last night, delivered after two sittings, the decision being reached at

10 o'clock, after a deliberation of half

an hour. Pelky was exonerated completely from all blame in the case.

Almost immediately after, however,

the Northwest mounted police placed

Pelky under arrest, charging him with j

manslaughter. He gave bail in the sum

of ten thousand dollars, Fred C. Lowes,

a wealthy real estate man, and Tommy Burns furnishing the surety. The cases threatened against Referee Smith, Manager Billy McCarney and Promoter Tommy Burns did not develop, but both Smith and McCarney, in lieu of being given their liberty promised to remain in the city for a couple of days at least an dgive furthere testimony. No bonds were asked in their cases. Following is the full verdict as given out: "We, the coroner's jury, find that Luther McCarty came by his death accidentally, the immediate cause being a sublaxation of the .cervical vertebrae, at the Burns arena, May 24, but there is no evidence to show how this injury occurred. We, the jury, therefore exonerate Arthur Pelky from all blame whatsoever." The verdict was signed by P. J. McManus. as foreman. The other jurors were H. C. Hersey, R. Jackson, E. W. Scofleld, C. P. McCallum, M. Dawson and E. A. Jones.

DILLON AND KLAUS READY jl BATTLE Both Men Are Putting on Finishing Touches At Indianapolis.

(Palladium Special) INDIANAPOLIS, May 27. Jack Dillon, American middleweight championship claimant, who is right in the midst of training for his bout with Frank Klaus at the Indianapolis base ball park Thursday night, has shown class this week that has surprised even his most ardent admirers. Klaus is also here and is doing light training work. Dillon has beenin the boxing game for a shorter period of time and has come to the front faster than any of the men who have figured in the middle-weight championship chase in the last year. It was only five years ago that Dillon, who is only 20 years old, started out on his pugilistic career. In 1908 he met and defeated half a dozen local boys In preliminary bouts at Indianapolis, and in 1909, after he had grown into the light weight division, all but two of the fifteen fights he fought and won ended with knockouts to Jack's credit, the final fight being with Kid Sparks, a Louisville welter weight whom Dillon stopped in two rounds in a preliminary bout on the Packey McFarland-Ray Bronson card at New Orleans. In 1910 Dillon began, to forge to the front, and a number of his battles were six round bouts in Pktsburg. His last bout that year was with Eddie McGoorty, who got a newspaper decision in ten rounds over Dillon at Fon du Lac on December 16. Less than a month later Dillon got a popular decision over McGoorty at Winnipeg, and in 1911 Dilr ""nvtv tvvjcp. Dillon, who never has been floored o. tituggered in the ring, of course is a hot local favorite but many ring followers have pinned their faith to the "Hoosier Hurricane" because of his natural strength, his great vitality and his wonderful stamina. It's different now for it's really another Dillon they have been watching in training a Dillon who not only has a jaw of steel and a midsection that apparently can withstand the kick of a mule, but is a fast, clever, shifty two handed boxer who has developed speed and terrific hitting ability to back, up his iron man reputation.

Oscar E. Dickinson, well known busines man of this city, is being talked of. by several parties as a member of the school board. The city council -w. ill fill the vacancy caused by the expiration of Dr. M. F. Johnston's term, at a meeting early next month. Mr. Dickinson is a jeweler in this city.

MARATHON DANCER

(National News Association) EDMONTON. Alta., May 27 Mrs. John G. Lourski, who was formerly Mary Kobolsky, was declared the winner In a terspiscorean marathon in Edmonton South the other night, when she danced with 171 partners at the celebration following her wedding. Incidentally, the bride gathered in $342, each partner paying $2 for the privilege of dancing with her, in accordance with an old Polish custom. The celebration began shortly after the noon hour and continued until down the following morning. The director of ceremonies said that such a thing as censoring the "Chicken scratch," "grizzly" and "bunny" were out of the question. Mrs. Luroski, who is a comely woman, recently from Poland, told several of her countrywomen that, while she is proud of having established the new "tango" record in America, she will never dance again.
