NEWS FROM ENGLAND. THE DUNDEE ELECTION. The by-election at Dundee has resulted in the return of Mr. Winston Churchill. The Unionist candidate Sir George Baxter, received 4,370 votes, 2,709 less than Mr. Churchill, and was run very close by the Labour nominee Mr. Stuart, who polled 4,014. Mr. Scrymgeour, the Prohibitionist, received 655 votes. Although this contest did not present the sensa tional features of the recent one at N. W. Manchester, it is interesting to note that the Liberal majority at the General Election in 1906 has been reduced by 3,000, so that the result can in no wise be interpreted into a victory for the present"-Ad- ministration. The most enthusiastic Unionist did not anticipate the actual election of Sir George Baxter, and considering that Dundee has for many years past been an impregnable stronghold of Radicalism, the result is not without its triumph for the Opposition. The London weekly review, Outlook, comments upon this and previous contests in the following terms: The tide has set in which will before long sweep away the whole mass of pedantic and inadaptable dogma which has so long determined our fiscal policy. There is not a shadow of doubt that we are drawing to the end of the long Cobdenite regime. It will last no longer than the life-time of the present Government, which has now entered on a purely moribund phase of existence. The heart of the Liberal and Free-importer is gradually sinking into his shoes. If Unionists will continue the spirit and effort which have won recent suc cesses, they will score an unexampled success along the whole line when this discredited Ministry ap peals to the country. ANARCHISM IN INDIA. Calcutta despatches state that a Bengali has been arrested at Parbatipin Station with bombs in his possession. The man was about to take a place in the Darjiling down mail train when a dispute with his fellow passengers resulted in his arrest. On being searched he was found to be carrying four bombs and three daggers. THE INDIAN FRONTIER TROUBLE. Major General Willcocks has received orders to advance at once with two brigades against the Mohmands, as they have not fully complied with the summons to tender their submission. Reuter hears from Simla that the Ameer of Af ghanistan has replied to the representations of the Indian Government with regard to the support af forded by his subjects to the frontier tribes, that he has given peremptory orders to recall all Af ghans who have joined the rising, and has instruct ed his officials to prevent Afghans crossing their own frontier. AMERICAN NEWS. THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. Mr. Bryan has for so long been regarded as the stereotyped Democratic candidate that it comes as something of a surprise to learn that the conserva tive wing of the party is seriously contemplating the bringing forward of Governor Johnson of Minne sota as Presidential nominee. Governor Johnson is one of the most interesting personalities in America. His parents were Swedish immigrants, and his child hood was spent in abject poverty. But he took to journalism, and at thirty-seven was elected a mem ber of the Legislature. At forty-three he was elected Governor of Minnesota, although the State is overwhelmingly Republican. His nomination as Presidential candidate would, in several States, be more popular than that of Mr. Bryan, who is some thing of an “Old man of the Sea” on the back of the Republican party. MRS. EVELYN THAW’S LIBEL SUIT. Mrs. Evelyn Thaw, says a New York telegram, is suing the proprietor of the Knickerbocker Hotel for 25,000 dollars for alleged libel. The action, the bringing of which has already been mentioned as probable, arises out of an incident which occurred several weeks ago at the Knickerbocker Hotel, when , Mrs. Evelyn Thaw, in, the company of Mr. E. R. Thomsr^ -tf^prottiinent businBsSr -man-'of^this cityv went into the grill-room to dine. They left in a few minutes, and, according to their story, they were obliged to do so owing to the staring and vul gar attention of the diners. The proprietor, how ever, publicly stated afterwards that they were asked to leave. Hence the action for libel. THE RAILROAD KING. Mr. E. H. Harriman gets credited with all sorts of things. Not long ago he was reported to have “captured the Reading,” although the shares failed to respond to the announcement. Apparently New York journalists have again been seized with the Harriman fever. They see things undreamed of by their hero. At the present accelerated pace it should not be long before Mr. Harriman exhausts the supply' of American railways, and must needs reach out accross the ocean for a fresh field. Un fortunately the greater part of European railroads are owned by their respective governments, so he will have to confine himself to England, where perhaps some owners would doubtless be willing to turn over their properties, since earnings and dividends have been running at a minimum there for the past two years. In the meanwhile Mr. Harriman will be kept busy trying to find buyers for his fresh Union Pacific bonds and Illinois Central securities. After that there will be a considerable task before him arising out of the absorption by the Illinois Central of the Georgia Central. THE INDIANA MURDER FARM. Two more bodies, those of a man and a woman, have (says Reuter), been dug up on Mrs. Guinness’s farm at Laporte, Indiana. The news that digging would be resumed yesterday attracted a large crowd. By seven o’clock in the morning convey ances of all descriptions were on their way to the farm, and by eight over a thousand persons were on the scene. A soft spot under a pile of refuse near which three bodies were exhumed on Wednes day was selected, and the diggers soon unearthed the skeleton of a man, the bones of which were well preserved. The body is believed to have been buried two years. The second skeleton was found directly underneath the first. The bones are smaller, and are believed to be those of a woman. This brings the number of bodies unearthed up to 11. Accord ing to news received from Chicago, Mrs. Guinness’s first husband, Mr. Sorenson, died the day before his old insurance policy expired, and two days after a second policy on his life had become operative. Mrs. Guinness, it will be remembered, through the medium of a matrimonial agency, had corresponded with many suitors, some of whom mysteriously dis appeared after visits to her house at Indiana. Only recently three children were burnt to death on the premises, and subsequent discoveries in the garden led to the finding of many human bodies— both male and female. A Daily Chronicle message from Indianapolis states that the known number of deaths at the farm is now twenty. As yet no information has been obtained from the girl, Bessie Wallace, but it is hoped that a confession from her will be forth coming, and other particulars relating to Mrs. Guinness and her methods learned. People from all over the country are sending inquiries about re latives who are missing and are believed to have been victims of the Guinness woman. In some cases it is known that the men answered the matrimonial advertisements of the widow, and that they started for her farm. In other cases the fact that the men are missing has caused their relatives to send in- quities, • that the local authorities have been inundated with letters. Two men have come forward and shown letters they received from Mrs. Guinness requesting them to visit her at the farm. These men, whose names are not revealed, both state that the request from the woman that they bring all their ready money with them aroused their suspicions that Guinness was an adventuress, and they did not go. Their caution doubtless saved their lives. The police are now searching for the body of a Norwegian, named Olaf Limbo, who is known to have come from Norway, where it is now learned that the woman also sought matrimonial alliances. He answered her advertisement and sold out his property in Norway and came to Indiana for the purpose of marrying Guinness. Limbo was a very big man, and none of the male bodies thus far found correspond to his description. The police in Chicago have begun a rigid inquiry into the matrimonial agencies of that city, of which there are a large number. This action is taken at the request of the Federal authorities, owing to the excitement aroused over the horrors of the Guinness murders. It is expected that the new move will be the means of closing up several establishments whose methods fail to satisfy the authorities. The police yesterday began digging up the cellar of the house and shop occupied by Mrs. Belle Guinness when she lived in Chicago. She was then the widow of Max Sorenson, whom she is believed to have killed. With the insurance money obtained from his death she took the premises in question, and carried on a confectionery business.* This place was destroyed by fire, on which she obtained the insurance. The police believe that even at that time she was allied with a gang of thugs, and that the bodies of murdered persons were received by her and buried in the cellar. A telegram from Utica just to hand states that a woman who is believed to be Mrs. Guinness, the female Bluebeard of Laporte, Indiana, was arrested at midnight in a sleeping compartment of the Chicago express bound for New York. The woman stoutly denied her identity with the notorious Mrs. Guinness, and declared that she was the widow of a well-known Chicago gentleman. The police, however, are convinced that they have arrested the right woman. SCHILLER MONUMENT AT DETROIT. In the presence of a great number of German- American societies and other spectators, the un veiling of the Schiller monument in Belleisle Park, Detroit, took place on Sunday. Appropriate speeches were delivered by Herr Wever, German Consul- General in Chicago, and Professor Goebel, of Harvard University. (Continued on page 2.)
