NEWCASTLE, Ind- May 30. Dr. and
Mrs. W. A. Winters, father and step
mother of Catherine Winters, aged 10,
who disappeared from her home here
more than a year ago, were arrested
today on their arrival here from-Terre
Haute. Ind. They were charged with
conspiracy to commit a felony. This
makes three arrests In the case, W. H.
Cooper, a former roomer In the Win
ters home, having been arrested late
last night.
It -was said that the charge of con
spiracy to commit a felony had been
placed against the three persons under
arrest merely as a. means of holding
them, and that the charge might be
changed later.
C loth in K Foond Sealed la Wall.
It was said a second search of the
home of Dr. W. A. Winters, father of
the girl, would be made. Private 'de
tectives and Newcastle police officers,
who searched the home last night, as
serted they found sealed in the base
ment wall a red hair ribbon, a red un
derskirt and red sweater which had
belonged to the missing child.
The sweater, police officials declare,
.had holes In it which looked as If they
'had been burned there, and the under
skirt was stained as if by blood.
Cooper was a roomer at the Winters
home at the time of the disappearance
of the girl, but left Newcastle the day
after she disappeared and remained
away for ten days. He did not seem
much surprised when arrested and de
clared that he could prove an alibi.
He also blamed Mayor Watktns for his
predicament.
Search Has Been Kxtenalve.
Dr. and Mrs. Winters were in Terre
Haute, where motion pictures are being
shown, to raise funds to further- the
search for Catherine.
Large sums of money have been
spent in searching for the child and
she has been reported found In various
parts of the country, but each report
has proved untrue.
Catherine Winters disappeared March
20, 1913. The child had been canvassing
the neighborhood in which she lived
trying to sell needles for a church so
ciety. She was last seen late in the
afternoon. The police were not notified
until the next day.
Catherine Is the daughter of Dr. Win
ters by his first wife, who died several
years ago. Catherine Inherited J3000
on her mother's death.
Warrants Issued by Mayor.
The warrants for the arrest of Dr.
and Mrs. Winters and Cooper were Is
sued by Mayor Watkins, who has been
a leading figure in the investigation
of the disappearance of Catherine.
Cooper's bond was, placed at ?5000,
which he was unable to furnish. The
Winters' bonds have not been fixed.
Police officers and the private de
tective employed by. the Mayor began
today digging tip the floor of the cellar
in the Winters home with the hope, as
they expressed it, of finding either the
body of the girl or evidence of how
the body had been disposed of. It was
said if no traces were found in the
I'ellar. other parts of the premises
would be dug up.
Mrs. Winters, following her arrest,
was questioned regarding the clothing
worn by Catherine on the day of her
disappearance, March 20, 1913, and the
police said that, among the other ef
fects, she described the sweater which
was found last night.
It was said Dr. Winters, probably
would be taken to the jail in , Muncle,
so that he could not communicate with
either his wife or Cooper.
WILSON POLICY ASSAILED
(Continued From Klrst Pag.)
wise and sane propositions, the only
propositions which represent a con
structive governmental prograssivism
and the resolute purpose to secure good
results, instead of fine phases, were
the principles enunciated in the Pro
afressive platform In connection with
the trusts and the tariff alike. Our
policies would have secured the pass
ing around of prosperity and also the
existence of a sufficient amount of
prosperity to be passed around.
Throughout the country all I can do to
emphasize these facts will be done.
"But I believe that this Kail my
chief duty lies right here in the State
of New York. I doubt whether there
is a state In the Union that shows more
conclusively than this state the dread
ful evil of . the two-boss system in
political life. The people of this state.
the honest people, the good citizens
who wish clean and efficient govern
ment. no matter what their party
affiliations may be, are growing
indignant with a system which pro
vi5es for the see-sa wof the Murphy
and Barnes machines in -the govern
ment of this state.
Two-Party Boas Rule Attacked.
"There is not a state in which the
evils of by-partisan boss rule are more
concretely illustrated than right here.
Tender such rule it is impossible to
get decent and effective government. It
is Impossible to secure fair treatment
for the honest business man, for the
honest wageearner or for tho honest
farmer. From the canals and high
ways downwards, each branch of the
Government has been . administered
primarily with a view to the political
advantage and often with a view to
the personal enrichment of different
political leaders. No advantage what
ever to the people at large can pos
sibly come by keeping this system and
substituting under bosses of Mr.
Barnes for under bosses of Mr. Murphy
as the beneficiaries of the system. 1
believe the time has come to clean
house in New York.
"And I believe that all right-minded
people ought to act together without
regard to their ordinary party dif
ferences, in a determined effort to ac
complish this task and to destroy the
malign and baleful influence of both
tho Barnes machine and the Murphy
machine in this state.
Turpentine on Bandage Ijmites.
Adolph Dahrem, a logger at Sandy,
Or., received severe burns Friday,
when a spark from a donkey engine
set fire to a bandage, saturated in
turpentine, which he was wearing on
his left hand. He was brought to
Portland and taken to the Good Sa
maritan Hospital. Dahrem wore the
bandage to protect a wound received
from a steel sliver. His left hand, arm
and shoulder were burned.

CAUCUS COULDSAVE
LAND LEGISLATION
Bills-Important to West De
pend Now on Favor of
Democrats in House.
PLENTY OF TIME IS LEFT
President Has Agreed Sot to Press
Other Subjects While Anti-Trust
Bills Are Pending, but Time
Is Open After That.
OREGONTAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, May 30. Unless Western mem
bers of the House can induce the Demo
cratic leaders to call another caucus
to add to the legislative programme for
the session, it is doubtful whether any
pending land or irrigation bills can. be
come laws before adjournment.
This fact developed when a delega
tion of Western members called on the
President to urge his support of the
bill allowing settlers on Government
irrigation projects 20 years In which
to pay for their water and providing a
system or graduated payments. The
President said the bill should become
law. He made it plain, however, that
he could not do anything to bring
about immediate passage for he had
promised Representative Underwood he
would ask for no legislation other than
that approved by the Democratic caucus
and in no event would he ask the House
to pass any other bills while the anti
trust legislation is pending.
Another Caucus M17 Be Solution.
The President intimated, however.
that if . the Western members would
start a movement for another caucus.
in order that the Democratic majority
of the House might add other bills to
the legislative programme, he would
then do what he could for the SO-year
bill.
The Western delegation then sounded
out Chairman Henry, of the rules com
mittee. Mr. Henry said flatly that the
rules committee would not report a spe
cial rule for the consideration of the
bill unless instructed to do so by a
Democratic caucus.
These developments are significant
regarding all .egistation affecting the
w est. The bills to amend the three-
year homestead law so as to make it
workable and equitable; bills providing
for leasing Government coal, oil and
phosphate lands, and the Alaska leas
ing bill are all In the same category,
and it begins to look as if none could
receive consideration in the House un
less first approved by a Democratic
caucus and then brought up under spe
cial rules.
Bouse Hu Plenty of Time.
There Is no question but the House
will have ample time to consider all
these bills for, with the passage of the
anti-trust bills, the House has little
remaining of the legislative programme
except the passage of the sundry civil
bill and an adjustment of differences
with the Senate on all the big legisla
tion yet untinished. The Senate, on the
other hand, has yet to consider half
the appropriation bills; it has the anti
trust bills to dispose of. and has work
enough mapped out to keep it busy not
less than two months.
The disposition among Democrats is
to get rid of legislation on the list and
then dawdle away the remainder of the
session, but If the President will say
the word, the House will devote itself
to the consideration of legislation still
pending.
- In the end, the fate of all these Wwi
ern bills may be said to rest with the
President.
$2,500,000 ESTATE LEFT
Mrs. William McKenzle'B Lawyer
Denies Family Protest to Will.
NEW YORK, May 25. William Mc
Kenzie. who was president of the
Standard Bleachery Company, which
has a plant, employing 1000 persons, ai
Carlton Hill N. J., and who died at
his home. Braeside, Carlton Hill, on
April 11, left an estate valued at about
52.f00.000.
Though the will has not been offered
for probate it was learned that one
third of the property owned by Mr.
McKenzie, who was founder of the Bor
ough of East Rutherford, N. J., which
governs Carlton Hill, is left to Mrs.
McKenzie. The remainder will go in
equal shares to his four sons and one
daughter.
There have been rumors in Bergen
County, where Mr. McKenzie was one
of tha Republican leaders for many
years, that the distribution provided
by the will was unsatisfactory to tne
children, all of whom were born to Mr.
McKenzie's first wife, and that they
intended to contest the will if it was
filed. William B. Gourley, of Pater
son,' who is counsel for Mrs. McKen
zie and was a friend of Mr. McKenzie,
said there was no truth in the rumors.
He said the will would be filed within
a few days. Mr. McKenzie's sons
would not discuss the matter.
The five children are Mrs. Rachel E.
Pearson, of Boston, Mass., and James
J. 'McKenzie, Bertram D. McKenzie,
Kenneth M. McKenzie and William Mc
Kenzie, of Rutherford. ." .
- Mr. McKenzie's chief - holdings were
in the Standard Bleachery Company,
the Hobart Trust Company, of Passaic;
the Rutherford National Bank, railroad
stocks and bonds and stocks in various
enterprises in New York, New Jersey
and New England.

Elizabeth says: "I am troubled with a
constant headache, which also aliects

have a severe case of catarrh in the
head and throat."
Answer: I receive dailv hundreds ot
tetters lrom people who nave suiierea
as you do and who have been relieved
with the following prescription: Make
a wash by mixing one-half teaspoonful
ot viiane powoer, wnicn you can pur
chase from anv druggist in 2-oz. pack
ages, and add to this one pint of warm
water, use this in the nostrils daily to
thoroughly cleanse them A catarrh
balm should be used with this. This
is made by mixing one teaspoonful of
Viiane powder with one ounce lard or
vaseline and aptfly well up into the
nostrils twice a day. If this is used
dailv vour catarrh should soon vanish.
It should, however, be used occasional
ly to prevent a return of the disease.
"C. G." writes: "If vou know of any
thing that will cure dandruff, itching
scalp and premature baldness, please
let me know what it is.
Answer: For several years I have
prescribed plain yellow minyol as su
perior to anything known for the
treatment of diseased scalo. Get It in
four-ounce jars with full directions. It
quickly overcomes all diseases of hair
and scalp and gives new vigor and in
tense natural color to tne nair. rry it
fairly and you will advocate its use
for your' friends.
' "Mildred-' writes: T am constantly
embarrassed' because of the fact of my
extreme thinness. I have absolutely
no color in my face and lips and I am
dull and lifeless most ot the time.
Please advise me what to do."
Answer: If you are so thin and pale
and your lips and cheeks are colorless,
it is because your blood is deficient in
red corpuscles. This can be easily
overcome by the use of three-grain
hypo-nuclane tablets, which can be had
from any druggist in sealed cartons
with full directions for taking. When
the blood is enriched by tlie use of
these tablets vour weight will increase,
the color will come back Into your
face and lips, and it will improve your
general system so that you will be
come strong and healthy.
"Edna" writes: "I suffer with rheu
matism all the time and I shall be very
glad if you can tell me something to
relieve me."
Answer: I can give you a prescription
which will not only relieve, but should
obliterate your rheumatism. This is
m v favorite remedy and from the
number of letters received from people
who nave used it proves its value in
rheumatism. The following is made by
mixing well, taking a teaspoonful at
meal times and again before retiring:
