That Gershon B.i Marx,;' aged 80 years, no w held in the ; Norwich conoty jail, is the perpetrator of. a series of coldblooded murders Is the belief of the officials; who today be' gan a systematic search for- bodies on the Marx farm. Four murders and an attempt to poieorri another man can, it .is believed by these of ficials, be traced to Marx, r 1 The bodies of two of Marx' .' al leged victims,' Joe Parol and Joe Palm, 'have been founds - Marx is a waiting trial i charged 'withn the murder of Pavoly his wife being held as a witness for the state. The two' bodies for which the Seareh was 1)8 gno today are those of an f:18'year-i old boy and a Hebrew peddler; - ' i The boy who1 was known' as Har ry, arrive'd-iti' Newi.York4from Rus- sia about three years : ago; and' he came here Boon f after to work for Marx: He worked oiu the farm' for about six taontbs, and then end denly disappeared. Marxsaid' he had gone to Hartfofd to find em ployment ' The Hebrew'-. peddler went to the. Marx home one evening two. years agoy and : has ; ;:not f been asen since. rot . r-.-vc--' The motive of the crime can on- ly be traced to a desire on the part of Marx' to escape paying money to persons to whom he was indebted. The two men whose ' bodies have been found were six month's be hind in ' their wages, as was the young boy Harry, of whom no trace has yekbeen found. . I be theory is that Marx drugged his victims when they pressed him ton hard for their wages, and then crushed their heads with an axe, after which the bodies were dismem bered and buried. Each of the bod ies already ' found, bears a ghastly bole in the forehead. ' '' The miesjng peddler went to the Marx home with a large quantity of articles, includingclothing, cheap, jewelry, etc., and was never seen again. A few days after this Marx tried to sell a miscellaneous collec tion of clothing to a neighbor. Marx had two farms, one of 165 acres and another of 105 ecres. On the first farm was found the body of Pa vol and on the second the body of Palm. 1 ' r ' XtraooD Glothes For boys, little fellows and young men see Nolan & Callahan. G. R.

Hascall died today at his home in Oak Park. He graduated from West Point in the class with Gener al Phil Sheridan and took part in many battles during the Civil War, Elkins, West Va , Aug. 30. John T. Davis only son of democratic Vice-Presidential Nominee Davie, is a patient in Davis Memorial Hoe pital. He was today brought from New York suffering with typhoid fever with which he . was attacked while at the home of his wife's mother, Mrs. Aamistead, in Seagate, one week ago. He reached here to day in the private - car Graceland accompanied by his wife and cbil dren and Dr. Gibney. The hospit al physicians tonight said he was in a critical condition.. Senator Davis is much wortied, the death of his wife and daughter, Mrs. Brown, two years ago, being due to the same malady. : biao iang, Aug. 61. ine sec ond day a --battle commenced at dawn. The Russians made repeat ed bayonet advances on the road directly south tit Liao YaDgi' where the Japanese! approached' from San Quaiship and Tao, shelling the po sitions iri thd Russian y 'lines;' until 4 o'clock1 in 'the afterpoon, When theengag'emeiht which was' general throughout the!sbtitheast,Mharrowed to tWe main1 line. '" 1 " ;: 1 " '" :i ; ' The ' Japanese advance on the southeast was by way of the Feng Wang' 'Cheng .road. -' Tmmediate'y in front" of Chiacentfaan,: the Japan ese stubbornly attempted! to'oc-upy a round-top hill which was liter ally shaved by the Russian shells making repeated attempts the en tire day where 'apparently it ' was impossible for anything to' live. The cannonading continued from this-point to the vicinity of Wang Paotai until thiB evening' without apparent advantage to either side. The Ja panese dropped . shells within 'two or three miles of the rail road Station, and in the ' plain of Wentshu Mountain, which is the most important eminence around Liao Yang, but the Japanese aband oned aggression there on account of the resistance they met. There was cannon1 fire last night, and this is expected, nightly. The varied casu alties here include one Russian war correspondent wounded and also 25 Chinese women from Chiaofantum, whom Dr. Westwater, the distin- gu;shed missionary, iB caring for in the Chinese Red Cross Refuge.- The day s developments show that the Russians are prepared for all emergencies. Slow rain began: to fall at noon, gradually trans forming the plain into a wilJerness through which the wounded, in carts and walking, are tonight mak ing their way to the hospitals. , Considering the scale of the day's operations, the number of Russian wounded is apparently small, while the Japanese losses are much great er, especially where they were re pulsed on the south road. Chinese graves with trees are being leveled about L'ao Yang in order not to in terfere with the derence. Develop ments are expected west and north west. '' : ' : Over 500,000 men and 13oo guns are engaged on both sides, Practi cally the whole Russian force is on the firing line. One regiment, which had just arrived from Ruseia, went into action with its band playing. Newberg, Or,, Aug, 30, As a re sult of a runaway accident which took place three miles north of town yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Will Dodge died early this morning. In company with her eldest eon, i youcg man about 17 years of age Mrs. Dodge had driven out in e Railway near Richmond,. Quebec, this morning.' ' ,, ... ', v, ;, ; : The disaster occurred on.a curve at 11" o'clock this, morning and was caused by the. head-on collision of two passenger trains running at nearly fuuepeed.:. j' ' "r r J One of the trains! consisting ' of 12 coaches, was filled to the utmost with a gay party of excursionists en loute to the St. Hyacinths fair.. The other train was the regular eastern express, which was also fill ed with passengers and.was endeav oring by fast Tanning to tbake up for time previously lost upon the rUtt.: i - iiJ '.) .yiii-.lJ.- -!.-;i;:f.;: n' ' hh Without any preUminary3warn ing the two engines swung around a purye and before the startled' en gineers had time to even set the air brakes crashed into each other with terrific impact.,- Bath, locomotives were i interlocked in a shapeless mass of twisted steel, from' every opening of, which,; gushed forth spouting steam. . ...t;': r.- I he forward coaches of both trains were telescped into each other and piled upon the demolished locomo tives. , . . -.. Sj forceful was the collision and so great the shock that, scarcely a passenger on . either train escaped without injury of more or. less serit ous nature. Immediately after the crash those with Blight injuries be gan the rescue of the less lortuaate. A runner was sent to Richmond, and upon telegraphic notification a special train carrying surgeons and nurses was dispatched from Cher- brooke. On arrival . at . the , scene they found five bodies already re moved irom the , wreckage, and within a short time 10 other bodies had been placed , in the hospital train. The list of . injured was so great that the surgeons and , nurses tound their efforts taxed to the ut most to alleviate the, sufferings of the maimed. , In , the hospitals at Cherbrooke are now 122 injured. A search of the wreck . continues, and it is thought that several, and perhapB many more, bodies will t be found beneath the huge pile of splintered timber, bent steel and crushed woodwork.' . Among the first of the dead to be recovered was the Hon. J. B. Blan- chett, a widely-known member of parliament from St. Hyacinthe, who was taking as his guests to the fair a number of the excursionists. . Pittsburg, Aug. 8.

Despite the ultimatum issued! by the packers yesterday declaring the strike end ed so far as they are concerned, aod refusing to meet the butchers' exec utive'' board, the 'strikers held a meeting early this morning and re solved to continue the strike inde- finitel.v. ' . . President Donnelly has issued a statement to' the public in which tie declares' the conditions at the yards were intolerable, nhati-the packerB refused; to adjust . the differences, and the strike was forced upon the workmen, . He says that the admis sion of the' packers that" they ; how intend to charge the working con ditions is proof that the strikers' cause was just and, that . the end sought by the packers is. the disrup tion of (he union, which improved the moral condition of , the work men. - .... . . , The men are still standing' firmly for the principle involved and voted unanimously to continue the strike not 1 accorded an honorable adjust ment. ; -' According to the statement of the packers this morning more than 150 union men sought re-employment at the plants today. The strike conference committee representing all of the unions in volved in the strike this noon, rati fied the action- of the - executive board as to continuing the strike. Strike leaders deny absolutely the reports emanating from the packing house offices to the effect that union men are eetking their old places. New York. Aug. 30.
