Sept. 12—(7)— Contradictory versions of her hus- band’s death led yestetday to close guarding of Mrs. Anna Arnot, who is in a hospital here suffering from hysteria. : Her husband, J. E. Arnot, former banker here, who formerly lived in Park River, N. D., died August 17. His body was found partly burned on a pile of papers and rubbish in the basement of their home. A coroner's verdict said he met death from burns and suffocation. He was at first be- | Meved to have suffered a heart at- tack while building a fire. Mrs. Arnot told officers she placed the body on the papers and rubbish, with the aid of a gardener, whom she paid $100 for the task. She said Arnot had taken poison by mistake. Mrs. Arnot said she placed the body; in the basement so suspicion would not attach to her because of Arnot’s unusual death. The gardener estab- lished he was not at the house at the time she said he was, and was re- leased. Mrs, Arnot and their two sons, Robert, 14, and Donald, 13, were away disclosed. The Arnots had been married 22 Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 12.—()}— Dr. H. BE.

WHITES ARE AFFECTED MOST BY ‘GINGER JAKE’ PARALYSIS Scientist Shows Black Chick- ens, Like Negroes, Are Practically Immune Cincinnati, O., Sept. 12.—(7)—A new freak of Jamaica ginger compoud, a mysterious color affinity that aff.cts chickens and men alike, has turned up in research at the University of Cincinnati. In the medical department the in- gredients of this liquor, which caused about 300 cases of paralysis around Cincinnati a few months ago, are under searching analysis. It was noted, at the time of this Cincinnati outbreak, that nearly all the victims were white, negroes con- stituting less than three per cent. At the same time, reports brought to the university, when analysis of samples of the liquor was undertaken, stated much ¢¢ the drink had been sold in negro districts. F. J. Andress,.who is conducting the research, tried samples of the drink on monkeys, rabbits and white rats, but all these animals were im- mune to paralysis. Then he tried it on chickens, the bird family having ® well known susceptibility to poison. He gave it to white chickens and every one developed either paralysis or symptoms of paralysis. But when he gave it to black chickens not one of them showed a symptom of paralysis. Scientists who attended the chem- ical meetings here this week made a guess that the paralysis of Jamaica ginger compound “is a function of pigmentation” meaning that the col- oring matter in pigment, that makes the complexion, may in some manner combine with something in the drink to give the whites a special poison. Mr. Andress says e1é experiments are too incomplete to throw any light on these guesses. ‘GROESBECK DEMANDS RECOUNT IN MICHIGAN Former Governor Says Primary Opponent Misled Voters and Spent Huge Sum Detroit, 12.—(P)—Alex J. Groesbeck, who defeated for the Republican nomination for governor by Wilber M. Brucker, attorney gen- leral, in Tuesday's primary election, announced today he will file a peti- tion asking for @ recount of the vote in all counties of the state. Groesbeck charged misleading cam- paign literature was sent out by the ; | Brucker forces in the closing days of the campaign and that a “lot of money” was poured into a number of counties by his opponent during the last days of the campaign. Brucker’s lead over Groesbeck on the final tabulation of the state’s vote SOME DAMAGE 1S CAUSED BY FLOOD OF CITY STREETS Weather Bureau Figures Show It Was Heaviest September Rain Since 1894 PRECIPITATION IS GENERAL Moisture of Little Value to Farm Country ‘Except as Re- serve for Next Year The heaviest September rain, since September 7, 1894, poured millions of tons of water over the area around Bismarck late Thursday night. The fall here measured 1.74 inches. In the city the downpour flooded basements and sidewalks, but, with crops harvested, the deluge proved little more than a spectacular mete- orological gesture in the farm coun- try. It added valuable moisture to the reserve supply for next year, how- ever. The rain here was one of a series of showers which poured dense streams of water on various commun- ittes, while a lesser volume fell in other portions of the state. The pre- a was general throughout the state. The storm was accompanied by heavy thunder and vivid lighting, while a strong wind rocked houses. While the downpour lasted, the streets ran full of water which flowed over curbs to pour into basements or found entrance to these through backed up conditions in sewers chok- ed with a volume beyond their ca- pacity to carry off. Heavier Fall At Hankinson The fall here was the second heavi- est in the state. Hankinson had an even heavier shower, 2.7 inches of rain falling there.

According to O. W. Roberts, weath- er observer here, almost all of the lo- cal downpour fell in one hour, the figures being 1.73 inches. This is highly unusual for this state, the only record exceeding it for the month being that of September 7, 1894.

Chicago, Sept. 12.—(7}—The accu- sation of q dying gangster brought Nicholas Muscato, “The Little Man,” into the law’s clutches today on two murder charges.

Efforts of to obtain from the resolutions committee & pronouncement for repeal or a ref- erendum on prohibition met with fail- ure. The proposal could muster only three votes. Twenty one of the 22 members of the committee partici- pated in framing the document. The plank with prohibition follows closely the plank of the Kan- sas City national platform and the one adopted by the state convention two years ago. It follows: “We heartily endorse the declar- ation relative to law observance and law enforcement contained in the Re- publican national platform. We be- eve in the sincere observance and conscientious enforcement of the pro- visions of our state and federal con- stitution and of all the laws pursuant thereto.” Pioneer’s Daughter Succumbs in Canada Grand Forks, N.
