A AMU a A, fi 3 'U n THE SUSPECT DISCHARGED (Continued from page 1) coroner expect to commence excava tions Monday morning. Coroner Hoffman's statement fol lowed a conference between him and Assistant Chief Schuettlcr over dis closures just made to the police of ficials. With the information was the assistant chief declined to say but the coroner declared it was by far the lost important information the Chi cago police have yet received. "I am now almost positive, "said tthe coroner," that the woman's body found in the ruins of the La Porte Some was not that of Mrs. Guinnes, but that she is still alive. As a result of the disclosures made the assistant plans to excavate the basement and premises about the Austin home of the alleged arch murderess. Permission was secured yesterday from Daniel Nelles, the present owner of the house, to make a thorough search of the premises. The delay until Monday is caused by a desire on the part of the assistant chief to make further and more defi aite investigation upon the lines on which he is now working. of her first husband the coroner does not say. OAKLAIIOMA, CITY, May 9- Grieving because he cannot hear from 'Jennie Olson, the adopted daughter of Mrs. Guinness, Emil Greening and his brother Fred, who both worked on the farm last summer tell stories of mys terious men who visited the woman's house and their mysterious disap pearance. Emil says after Jennie dis appeared (ostensibly to go to Cali fornia to school) with a professor, he was put off with one story or an other by Mrs. Guinness and never heard from the Olson girl He says men came to the Guinness farm every week and always stayed in the house and several were never seen to leave the place. Mrs. Guinness introduced them as her cousins from different cities and states. MARATHON RUN. CHICAGO, May 9.-A restaurant leeper informed the police that a man and woman, the latter greatly resem , Wing Mrs. Guinness, entered his place today and ordered a meal. The wait ress showed them the picture of Mrs. Guinness in a newspaper and they im mediately left the place with the meal ntouched The police are searching for them. Dissensions have broken out be tween the city officials in the matter of investigation the mysteries of the J Guinness farm and it is claimed that the work has been hampered. Wide spread reports of evidence found tend ing to prove that the corpse supposed to be that of Mrs. Bella Guinness is in reality the body of another woman said have had their origin in the camp f the defense members which are of opposite politica faith to the sheriff and of the faction opposing the prosecuting attorney. Statements credited to Dr. II. P. Long, one of the physicians who per formed autopsies on the bodies found on the Guinness home are repudiated by him Says he simply said he was not satisfied as to the identity of the corpse. Other members of the board refused to be brought into the ques tion though Dr. J. H. William Meyer said he had no doubt that ft was the corpse of Mrs. Guinness. The examining board declares the re port of the skulls of children fractured are false. Several articles of adornment be longing to Mrs. Guinness including the ring found in the ashes of the building a few days after the fire. For the first time since the search was begun the sheriff failed to discover a body. Excavations of several points were made but of no avail. The search for bodies will be abandoned in a few days and effort and time de voted to securing identity of the odies already uncovered. A number f inquiries for the missing persons as beeen directed to the sheriff and jtirther evidence is being developed to indicate that Lamphere knew that everything was not right in the Guin ness home, even if he did not actual ly participate in the alleged crimes. The revelation which stirred the present activity was made, according to Coroner Hoffman by a person whose name heretofore has not been mentioned in connection with the Guinness case. That it was given in good faith the coroner declares he is now positive, and he is equally con vinced the information has furnished a clue to discoveries that may equal if not eclipse those made at La Porte. Coroner Hoffman expressed the be Eef that as early as ten years ago Bfrs Guinness used the matrimonial agency as a means by which to carry on her work of crime.

Everythng in the way of details con cerning the excursion to be made across the bar have now been com pleted with the one exception, that of fixing the date. Secretary Metcalf is expected to fix this date immediately, in fact, has been expected to fix be fore this time. Senator Fulton ves terday telegraphed him asking him to do so at once. Mr. C. If. Callender yesterday re ceived a telegram from the master of the Roanoke saying that all preoara tion including a full line of life pre servers had been made for the Roan oke. It will however carry but 700 people on the excursion, it bcina teemed wisest not to allow more than this number aboard. Therefore it be hooves those who wish reservations to make them at once. The trip will be about Wednesday the 20th. There are not a great many reservations open yet to be made and home people who desire to make this trip would do well not to sleep ori their opportuni ties in case they would prefer to iro out to see the fleet on the Roanoke to viewing it from the shore somewhere along Clatsop Beach or from Seaside.
