BODIES OF XW.0 MEN FOUND Connecticut PoHceB.elleve Prisoner Killed Hired rfandsWiien They , Pressed Hlnjk 'for "Money Probably Drugged First. 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, SAY HE KNEW MEN IN MOB Georgia Minister Implicates Three Prominent Business Men. SAVANNAH, Ga., Aug. SO.

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.) Graduated With Sheridan.

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. WHITE ULAN STABS HEGK0. Salmon Row, It Is Feared, Will Have a Serious Ending. Charles H.

The patrolmen were furnished with a description of- the stranger who made the assault and are now looking for him. BIDS OH" LAND HIGH. Oregon AYHlRecelve S66;000 for the Grand Ronde Holdings.

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. Will Disregard Order of Woman's 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 him to take charge of the body and per sonal effects of Mrs. J. H. McVicker "at Pasadena.

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. South Carolina Primaries Held. CHARLESTON, S. C, Aug. 30.
