RALSTON, ADAIR, CRITTENBERGER IN CONFERENCE

Discuss" Their Candidacies, It Is Said, in Rather Exclusive Caucus. ANDERSON, Ind.. Jan. 7. Samuel M. Ralston, former governor of Indiana; John A. M. Adair, who failed in his candidacy to succeed Ralston; Dal J. Orittenberger, who was unable to succeed himself as state auditor; James J. Netterville, former Joint senator from Madison and Henry counties; Judge Willis S. Ellis, of the Madison superior court; Judge Luther F. Pence, of the Madison circuit court; George T. Beebe, who has just retired as treasurer of Madison county; B. H. Campbell, of El wood, and a man named O'Connor, reported to be from Elwood, were In conference in one of the private offices of the Judges at the court house In Anderson. The conference concerned no case at issue in the Madison county courts. Probably Discussed Politics. The caucus, which appeared to be rather exclusive, is understood to nave related probably to three candidates, It le well taown that Crittenberger Is the leading booster for Adair, who is again seeking the Democratic nomina tion from the Eighth district for con gresa. Crittenberger, who has been regarded as a candidate for renomination for state auditor, is reported to have recently contemplated being a candidate for the nomination for governor. Ralston, it Is said. In Anderson, will be for Adair - and Crittenberger for whatever they seek and that if Crittenberger wishes to be a candidate for governor, Ralston will wait the chance of seeking the nomination for United States senator. Crittenberger, who for a long time before Ralston retired and afterward, argued through bis newspaper that Ralston ought to.be governor again, has been remarkably silent on that Use of boosting recently, and CrittenDcrgers friends have not heard him saying much about running again for the nomination for auditor. wCrlttenbergera After Something. They do know, Democrats here assert, that Crittenberger is after something at the top of the state ticket and it Is beginning to be believed here that Crittenberger will be a candidate for the nomination for governor. Crittenberger gave a dinner at a local hotel for all men in the secret caucus and the party kept together until Ralston and Adair left. Mr. Crittenberger did not permit a line in his local newspaper concerning the visit of Adair and Ralston yesterday, though ordinarily the mere passing through the city of either of the two men at any other time would have afforded Crittenberger a "lead" ' for his first page, with a lot of pretty words about Ralston and Adair. Of no Political Import, Says Ralston. Ralston said today that his meeting with Dale J. Crittenberger and John A. M. Adair at Anderson had no political significance. Mr. Ralston said be had some law business at Muncie, and went there, taking Mrs. Ralston to Anderson to be the guest of Mrs. Crittenberger for the day. He said he returned to Anderson and did not know he would meet Mr. Adair there.

State Pardon Board Expected To Give Freedom to Wm. Hinshaw

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 7. Rev. Willlam E. Hinshaw, Indiana's most noted life prisoner at Michigan City, who was sent to prison more than 16 years ago on the charge of killing his wife while he was pastor of a small congregation at Belleville, Ind., probably will be paroled or pardoned within the next two or three months. Governor Goodrich would not say positively tonight what course he will take, but he - indicated he has concluded Hinshaw is entitled either to a parole or pardon. It was learned tonight that the State Pardons Board at its recent session decided by a vote of two to one in favor of a pardon for Hinshaw. A new feature of the Hinshaw case tends to make it one of the most unusual stories of crime and romance that has come to the attention of Indiana prison authorities. Came from. Lynn. Hinshaw came from Lynn, Ind., a small town near Winchester, the home of Governor Goodrich, who la familiar with his history. Hinshaw was arrested more than 17 years ago at Belleville on the charge of murdering his wife. He maintained they were attacked at night by burglars and that one of the shots bad killed her. After a sensational trial he was sentenced to prison for life, although the evidence was circumstantial. One of the very last official acts of Winfield T. Durbin as Governor in 1904 was to issue a parole for Hinshaw, who went back to Lynn to live with his relatives. Within a few months after the inauguration of Frank Hanly as Governor reports reached .him that Hinshaw was paying devoted attention to the wife of a county sheriff. Hinshaw was brought to the Governor's office, confronted with the reports and sent back to prison for life. Was Model Prisoner. He became a model prisoner and several unsuccessful efforts have been made to obtain his pardon. He has been paroled several times to go to his home, but neither Governor Marshall nor Governor Ralston granted a pardon. Soon after Governor Goodrich took office it was reported to him that Hinshaw would die if he was kept within the prison. Early last spring he paroled Hin Home Guards to Drill in Gear-Scott Warehouse The Richmond company of home guards, now in state service, will drill Monday night in the old Gaar-Scott warehouse on North Sixth street, for the first time. Captain Malsby of the company urges the members of the company to meet at the Commercial club rooms not later than 7:15 o'clock. The guards will then march to the warehouse in a body. Electrical Appliance Course to Be Featured A thorough course in electrical appliances for the kitchen will be a feature of the new term of the night school opening Wednesday. The class will be in charge of B. W. Kelly. Richmond women who have electric irons or other appliances which are not in good condition are asked to bring them to class Wednesday even ing. Jan. 16.

shaw for 60 days so he could go to Arizona to regain his health. It was learned tonight that Hinshaw bought a small ranch in Arizona and that he presumed that be was to have an indefinite parole. -However,. Governor Goodrich wrote him in due time that he must report at the prison at the end of parole. Hinshaw then took a step that added to the complications and gave the case the unusual aspect. He telegraphed to the former sheriff's wife, who had become a widow, and asked her to come to him immediately witn her children. She arrived at Hugo, Ariz., May 26, a short time before he was obliged to leave for prison. He asked her to become his wife. She consented and the ceremony took place. Hinshaw then went back to prison, presumably for life, while the woman and two children, the oldest 13 years old, remained on the desert ranch to look after his interests.

Great emphasis was placed : today on the fact that Lloyd George did not state the "peace terms" of the allies and the United States, but spoke only of war alms. Officials and diplomats were more thoroughly convinced today, after having read the full text of the British premier's statement, that the allies are prepared to fight on for years If need be. In order to achieve the principles for which their armies and navies are struggling. They were equally convinced that If the central powers are sincere In their desire for peace the door has been thrown open to them and responsibility for prolonging the war must rest on Berlin and Vienna, and not on Washington, London, Paris and Rome Germany and her war allies are in vited to come Into the open and make ! peace on honorable and Just grounds or assume responsibility for further waste of life and treasure.
