COLCHESTER. Conn.. Aug. 30. That
Gershon B. Marx, aged SO years, now held
in the Norwich County Jail, is the per
petrator of a series of coldblooded mur
ders is the belief of the officials, who to
day began a systematic search for bodies
on the Marx farm.iFou murders and an
attempt to poison another man can, It Is
believed by these officials, be traced to
Harx.
The bodies of two of Marx' alleged vic
tims, Joe Pavol and Joe Palm, have been
found. Marx is awaiting trial charged
with the murder of Pavol, his wife being
3ield as a witness for the state. The two
bodies for which the search .was begun
today are those of an 18-year-old boy and
a Hebrew peddler.
The boy, who was known as Harry, ar
rived In New York from Rusisa about
three years ago. and he came here soon
after to work for Marx. He worked on
the farm about elx months, and then sud
denly disappeared! Marx said he had gone
to Hartford to find employment. The He
brew peddler went, to the "Marx home one
evening two years-ago, and has not been
seen since.
The motive for the. crimes can only 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 months
behind in their wages, as -was the young
'boy-Harry, of whom no trace has yet been
found. .
The theory la that Marx drugged his vic
tims "when they pressed him too hard for
their wages, and then crushed their heads
with an ax, after which the bodies were
dismembered and buried. Each of the
bodies already found bears a ghastly hole
In the forehead.
The missing peddler went to the Marx
home with a large quantity of articles, In
cluding clothing, cheap Jewelry, etc., and
"was never seen .-again. A few days after
this Marx tried to sell a miscellaneous col
lection of clothing to a neighbor. Marx
had' two farms, -one of 165 acres and an
other uf 105 acres. On the first farm was
found the body of Pavol and on the sec
ond the body of Palm,

EX-SULTAN OF TTTBKEY DEAD
Ruler Who Was Deposed on Ground
He Was Insane.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 30. Ex-Sultan
Murad V died yesterday of diabetes,
from -which he had long suffered. His
remains were Interred here today In the
Yenldjami mausoleum, at Stamboul, where
hlsmother Is burled.
' (It was reported in May last from
Vienna that Murad V, the 53d sovereign
ot the House of Osman, was dying and
at the same time it was reported from
the same source that his agents through
out Turkey, known as the "young Turks,"
were secretly arming and awaiting the
signal to rise in insurrection.
Murad "V was born In 1840 and ascended
the throne- after the murder of the Sultan
Abdul Aziz, May, 1S76. In July of that
year Murad V was placed under the
regency of his brother, the present Sultan
Abdul Hamid II, and August 31 he was
dethroned. Outwardly this act was per
formed legally by the Council of Min
isters on the ground that he was Insane.
The real facts In the case, however, prob
ably will never be known. It has been
asserted that Murad V was a good deal
more sane than hla brother, and one of
the greatest terrors of Abdul Hamld's
existence was the fear that this Turkish
"man with the iron mask," as he has
been termed, might escape from his place
or confinement in tne cnera uan .raiace.
Some six years ago he was confined In
the Malta Kiosk, In the grounds of the
Yildlz Palace. occupied by Abdul Hamld,
which la surrounded .by lofty walls.
In spite of the secrecy of Murad's re
xnoval, he was seen as he passed by
several foreigners, who declared that
though he had aged and was haggard in
appearance, the former Sultan had not
lost his majestic bearing and that he
preserved the appearance of a man In
the full possession xf his mental faculties.
The confinement of Murad V has been
of the crudest character. Only his Jailers
were allowed to see him, and every pre
' - caution was taken to prevent any intelli
gence of what was going on in the out-
side world from reaching him.
Although Murad V is announced to have
died from diabetes, it had generally been
understood, according to the palace re
ports, that he was suffering from tubercu
lqsis.)

SALEM-DALLAS ELECTRIC ROAD
L. Gerlinger Takes Hold of Project
With Prospects of Completion.
SALEM, Or.. Aug. 30. (Special.) Pres
ent indications, after many, weeks of de
lay, during which the committee ap
pointed by the Greater Salem Commercial
Club has been quietly but hard at work,
seem to point to the ultimate realization
of the Salem-Dallas Electric Railway, to
connect at the latter point with- the Dallas-Fails
City Railway. This project was
first taken up with J. H. Coovert, who
asked for a subsidy, including a free
grant of right of way, of $78,000. This fell
through, however, during the progress of
the, negotiations, and President L. Ger
linger, of the Dallas-Falls City Railroad,
has now taken it tip in all seriousness and
the offer which he will make to the citi
zens of Salem, by way of raising a speci
fied amount to apply as a loan and first
mortgage, is now In course of preparation
and will be made public In the course of a
few days.
This road, if constructed. Is regarded as
a paying investment, as in traversing the
distance of 15 miles It passes through some
rich territory and touches two prosperous
country towns, Derry and Eola, which
will serve as valuable feeders for the road.
The matter will be reported to the club
next Friday evening, when definite action
will be taken toward entering into nego
tiations with Mr. Gerlinger, in whom the
business element here has great confidence
as a successful railroad promoter, and a
prompt arid substantial response to his
proposition. Is looked forward to.

WEALTH IS MISSING
Estate of Mrs, McVicker Not
All Found in Vault
HEIRS WILL INVESTIGATE
Consider Death Suspicious, and Will
Probe Physician's Connection
With Matter Comment on
Delay in Shipping Body.
SYNOPSIS OF THE CASK.
Mra. J. H. McVicker, aged 73. the
wealthy widow of a theatrical man
ager and mother-in-law of Edwin
Booth, died suddenly at Pasadena, Cal.,
August 25.
For three yeara stiehad been under
the care of her own doctor, who trav
eled with her. His salary was $10,000.
He is said to have had much Influence
over Mrs. McVicker and to have mad
love to her, although she was 40 years
his senior.
The delay of the physician In return
ing the, body to Chicago for burial
aroused the suspicion of & stepson and
two nieces, who intimate that the
physician has obtained possession of a
large part of the estate, arfd that Mrs.
McVicker' a death was possibly due to
foul play.
CHICAGO. Aug. 30. With the opening
of the safety deposit boxes where Mrs.
J. H. McVicker kept her wealth, and the
finding of a will, has come the announce
ment by Attorney L. D. Condeo of a
shortage of 5S9.OC0. The amount of money
and bonds found, it Is stated, was under
$200,000, while $250,000 was the total amount
counted on.
Attorney Condce, representing Horace
McVicker, the stepson, who Is business
manager of Ethel Barrymore, declined to
discuss the -seeming shortage further than
to say he hoped the money would be found
In some other place of safekeeping. The
will found was not opened.
The work of examining the assets and
making the official Inventory of the estate
was begun almost Immediately after the
issuance of letters of administration to
collect to Public Administrator Joseph H?
Strong. The inventory was made by Colonel-
Strong In the presence of Mr. Mc
Vicker and Attorney Condee. .
This afternoon Mr. McVicker received a
telegram from Mrs. Clara Belle Game, of
San Francisco, a niece of Mrs. McVicker,
informing him that a further investigation
of Mrs. McVicker's death was imperative.
Mr. McVicker Is said to have Instructed
Mrs.' Game to proceed with the Investi
gation. Estate Always Valued at $300,000.
Mrs. McVicker had two nieces in San
Francisco who fall heir to the large for
tune left by the woman If she died intes
tate. They are Mrs. Minnie Effey, whose
father was Mrs. McVicker's brother, and
Mrs. Clara Belle Game, whose mother was
a sister of the dead woman. They have
both left for Pasadena to investigate the
sudden death of the aunt and ascertain,
if possible, whether she left a will. Mrs.
Game has placed her interests in the
hands of Attorney Milton A. Nathan, who
Is' looking after7 her possible interests "in
the dead woman's estate, which has al
ways been valued at between $300,000 and
$500,000. If no will was left by Mrs. Mc
Vicker, the stepson, Horace McVicker,
manager of Ethel Barrymore, who is at
present in Chicago, although his residence
Is in New Tork, will not receive a cent
from his stepmother's estate.
Mrs. Game and Mrs. Effey were very
anxious to secure possession of the keys
to Mrs. McVickers safe-deposit box In
Chicago, which are said to be In Dr. Zelg-
lers keeping. In that box were most of
Mrs. McVicker's valuables, jewelry and a
will.
Attorney Nathan said: "Dr. Zelgler had
been Mrs. McVicker's attending physician
for three years. He has always maintain
ed that he had a ten years' contract to
take care of her at $10,000 a year and ex
penses. The doctor once made the state
ment that at the time he was employed
by Mrs. McVicker he had been offered
the position as house physician to the
Czar, but declined It, saying he preferred
to take care of Mrs. McVicker. )
One of the Interesting facts In the case.
In view of the statements of the interested
parties, is that Mrs. McVicker was 40
years Dr. Zelgler's senior. In spite of this
difference in age, they declare he made
love to her and several times proposed
marriage to hers-
Alexander McBean, an uncle of Mrs.
Effey. said yesterday that the last time
he saw Mrs. McVicker was In 1S93, when
he and hfs wife visited her In Chicago
during the World's Fair. At that time
Mrs. McVicker was giving spiritualism
much attention, and some were inclined
to the belief that It had a detrimental ef
fect upon her mental capacities.
Telegram Arouses Suspicion.
"One thing which seems very suspicious
to me Is the text of the telegram which
was received. It reads as follows: -
Pasadena, Cal., Aug. 26. City Press Associa
tion. Chicago: Mrs. James H. McVicker passed
away very suddenly last night. Leave for Chi
cago September 1; washout on road; delay.
DR. ZEIGLER.
"It states that the body will leave for
Chicago on September 1. Why should the
departure be .delayed so long as that? It
also states that a delay was occasioned
by a washout on the road. Any person
who has ever traveled through the West
ern states at tnls season of the year
knows that there Isn't enough rain to Ir
rigate the land, much less to causfr a
washout.- All of these things, taken to
gether, have made me very suspicious and
I Intend to make a thorough Investlga
tion.
L. W. Condee, the attorney of the estate.
was very reticent. He made every effort
to suppress the facts In the case, but ad
mitted that there was room for suspicion
and that an Investigation would follow.
Mrs. McVicker left Chicago about the
first of May for Pasadena. She was ac
companled by Dr. Zelgler and a negro
maid. '
A year ago Mrs. MoVicker gave up her
palatial home at 1S42 Michigan avenue and
took apartments at the Lexington Hotel,
where she resided until her departure' for
California. Her friends have heard little
or nothing of her since she left, except
that she was a guest at the Hotel Mary
land in Pasadena.
Dies at Advanced Age..
Mrs. McVicker was about 73 years of
age. Her maiden name was Harriet Ger
trude Myers. She was born in Mansfield,
O., and was a playmate of the late John
Sherman. Early In life she married John
Runyon, who died soon after the wedding.
Fifty years ago she married J. H. Mc
Vicker. Mr. McVicker at that time was
a widower, with one son, Horace, a lad of
3. His former wife had been Anna Lev
ering, the famous actress. Two children
were born to the marriage of the couple
Mary, who became the second wife of
Edwin Booth, the famous tragedian, and
Frank. Mrs. Booth died about 23 years
ago, while Frank died only five years
ago, leaving Horace the sole survivor of
the family.
The estate, which is lowly estimated at
J350.000, consists entirely of actual cash,
bonds and the family .residence In Mlchl-
gan avenue. The latter Is the -only real
esiate held by the estate, the Interest in
McVicker's Theater having been disposed
of several, years ago.
"It Is Impossible to stats just how much
the estate Is "worth,", said Attorney Con
dee. "We know how much It was worth,
but wo have reason to believe that cer
tain persons have secured possession o
a portion of it. We do know, however,
that the minimum value at the present
time. is about 5350,000. I think that a thor
ough investigation Into her death will be
made."
PHYSICIAN HOLDS EFFECTS.

I Son for. Them.
LOS ANGELES. Cal., Aug.' 30. A tele
gram hag been received by H. C. Wyatt,
the local theatrical manager, from tho
public administrator of Chicago, asking

representative of the stepson of the de
ceased, Howard Mcyicker. since the
death of Mrs. McVicker, and ordered the

which took place a couple of days ago.
Wyatthaswired the public administrator
at Chicago, asking to be relieved of fur
ther responsibility In the case. Tho body
of Mrs. McVicker, together with all of
her effects at the hotel where she resided,
are being held by her physician, Dr. L. C.
H. Zelgler, who has Indicated that he
will not surrender them on tho order of
the stepson. He has concluded arrange
ments to ship th body East within the
next day or two. '
Will Opened, Contents Secret.
CHIGAGO, Aug. 30. The will of Mrs.
J. HH-Mcyickers, who died last week at
Pasadena, Cal., was opened ana read
today, and Horace McVicker, when he
came from the secret conference at
which its provisions were revealed," ex
pressed satisfaction.
"It Is Impossible for me to tell you
the contents of the will," he sajd. "I
have only to say that I am perfectly
satisfied with it. I believe the will we
found to be the last one she made.
Inasmuch as I am satisfied with the
will, I -don't think I should be accused
of being mercenary. But I will fight
to the last Inch for the possession of
Mrs. McVicker's body."
ONLY DANGER THAT OF APATHY
Secretary Wilson Urges the Repub
licans to Bestir Themselves.
BARRIE. Vt, Aug. 30. Secretary of
Agriculture "Wilson was the central figure
at a political rally here tonight. He said
In part:
"The prosperity of this country is great
er than ever before. The workingmen of
Vermont know that wages are 100 per cent
higher than In- any other country on
earth. During the last three years of Mr.
Cleveland's Administration, 3,000,000 labor
ers were Idle. If Mr. Parker Is elected this
Fall, these conditions are likely to return.
'Parker was frank enough to tell us in
his speech of acceptance that if elected, he
would attempt to reduce the tariff. The
common people believe in Roosevelt and
every state from the Alleghanles to the
Pacific Slope will cast Its electoral vote
for him in November."
He declared the .only danger to be
avoided Is that of apathy on the part of
Republicans.

Picnickers Annoy Parker.
KINGSTON, N. Y., Aug. 30. Judge
Parker's candidacy has caused his place
at Rosemount to be visited by plcnlo
parties In Increasing numbers. Some
of the parties come from long distances.
They enter the grounds, usually with
out Introduction or permission, make
themselves at home -with the utmost
freedom, and leave the place -littered
with picnic leavings. One party re
cently stripped several of the apple
trees in the orchard and committed
other depredations. Judge Parker has
been most cordial in his treatment of
all visitors, but the picnickers are
causing much annoyance. Today was
one of the quietest at Rosemount since

guest at luncheon.

Dear Sir:
"Ever since I was in the Army,' I had
more or less kidney trouble, and within
the past year it become so severe and
complicated that I suffered everything
and was much alarmed my strength and
power was fast leaving - me. I saw an
advertisement of Swamp-Root and wrote
asking for advice. I began the use of
the medicine and noted a decided im
provement after taking Swamp-Root
only a short time.
I continued its use and am thankful to
say that I am entirely cured and strong.
In order to be very sure about this, I
had a doctor examine some of my water
today and hoj pronounced it all right and
In splendid condition.
I know that your Swamp-Root is purely
vegetable and does not contain any
harmful drugs. Thanking you for my
complete recovery and recommending
Swamp-Root to all sufferers I am."
Very truly yours,
I. C. RICHARDSON:

wonderful remedy. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, sent absolutely free by mall, also

you are already convinced that Swamp
