DENVER, Colo., Dec. 27.—(Unit- ea Press)—Quantities of arsenic found in the stomachs of Samuel’ Shillington and his four year old son today gave authorities their first definite clue in the baffling mystery uncovered at the Shillingten ‘home a week ago. Traces of arsenic were also found in cooking utensis with which was prepared the last meal Shillington and his son ate. - Deputy Coroner George Bostwick would not venture an opinion as to whether the poison was intentional- ly or accidentally administered, nor as to which was intended—murder or suicide. The chemical analysis of Shilling: ton and his son removes the poss!- bility of death by either cyanide or monoxide gas poifpning, both of which were held a probability when the investigation was first started, Mrs, Shillington was being held a virtual prisoner at General Hos- pital here. She was questioned yes- terday and was said to have evi- denced little grief when told her hus- band and son were dead. Authorities were at a loss in de- termining her mental condition. Parts of her story were clear enough, Bostwick said, but other de- tails were completely jumbled. She insists she has no recollection of what happened in her home the night and day 4, Gay precearing: Oo the deaths.

Lindley gave out the following signed statement-to the United Press tonight: “The governer and the board of administration in demanding my re- gignation as chancellor, denied my request for a reasonable time to consider (terms to be specified by the governor); denied my request for a copy of the reports of fwo so- called investigations; and denied me a copy of the charges which had been prepared but which was {m- mediately given by them to the press. “The essential fact is this that I haye resisted repeated attempts of the governer through the board to force appointments at the Univer- sity of Kansas in violation of Kan- sas statutes. “We court the fullest investigi tion of the governor's charges.

It says: “The springs are grouped about the base of Hot Springs mountain, thelr aggregate flow being 851,308 gallons per day.” There are fourteen springs at Hot Springs and it would require all of them folwing for 23 days to produce the amount of water that comes every day from the big spring at Thermopolis.

GRIPOVESOELS Ferry Boats at waukee Battle Stream. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Dec. 27.— (United Press.}—King Winter, lay- ing a sub-zero grasp upon the lake region Saturday night, held two car ferries, one with a crew of 45 and the second with 25 passengers in addition to the crew, tightly gripped in the ice, in imminent danger be- cause of a stiff northwest wind and immense ice floats grinding at the hulks. The vessels m danger are the Pere Marquette car ferry number 19, which ran aground on a sand bar off Grand Haven yestedray noon and the Chief Wamatam, operated by the Michigan Central, Pennsyl- vania and South Shore railroads in the straits of Mackinaw. The latter vessel has 20 passengers on board together with a large quantity of mail and express. A third vessel, the Grand Trunk car ferry Milwaukee, loosened itself from a position which blocked the Grand Haven harbor Saturday night where it swung broadside on a sand bar and became wedged in the ice last Saturday. Word was received here Saturday night from Grand Haven that at- tempts were made to release car ferry number 19, but the vessel could not be budged. Work was cnotinued until shortly before dark when the line between the two boats parted. J ‘ The sald theewind had yeered to the northeast and the sea has gone down considerably. A field of broken ice extends from number 13, half a mile into the Jake.

At Baden-Baden, in the Black Hills of Germany, the literature at hand states the temperatures is 111 degrees. At all of the above places federal or state governments have been ac- tive in improving, beautifying and advertising the surroundings of the fprings so that the people may Inow about and enjoy them. In addition there have been many thousands of dollars private capital expended in the erection of hotels, apartments, bath houses and in divers ways for enterfainment and relaxation. The analysis of Phermopo'ls water is not equaled by any of the above waters in conténts of curative pro- prieties, in volume or intensity of heat necersary for the proper dis- tillation and compounding of the in- gredients that bring about relief and cure of diseases. Thermopolis big sfring flows 18,600,000 gallons every day at a temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. The crying need for the develop- ment of Wyoming's great hot springs at Thermopolis is that a campaign of publicity fitting to the importance of the springs be undertaken by the state government. The proper adver- tising of the springs backed by the state government and endorsed by the leading physicians of Wyoming, such &s is‘the case at the springs mentioned herewith, would be a small task for the staté but Is. too big a job for so small a community as Thermopolis. The entire state of Wyoming would benefit as Arkan- sas and other communities benefit by the advertisemént of their springs. Statements made with government authority would carry conviction.

Shepherd said he visited the labatory in the com- pany of his physician. “I knew nothing about germs. I went to the labatory, because the doctor was treating for an ail- ment,” he said. Assistant State's Attorney George E. Gorman, chief assistant to Crowe in the investigation, announced that nothing transpired during the examin: of Shepherd to warrant furthersqtpabn at this time.

Just before Billy become of age—April of this year— he sent me a sketch of his will, em- bodying his idea of where he want- ed the money to go. Then I pre- pared a rough sketch and showed it to Billy. Billy sald it was all right, and we then fixed up the will in Wroper form and we called in the maids ‘and the will Was signed. Billy's rough sketch of the will called for an annuity of $8,000 for Miss Pope and the completed will contained this clause.” Here Shepherd made first refer- ence to Miss Isabel’e Pope, youth- ful North Shore society girl, who was betrothed to Billy. Billy died as Miss Pope waited outside the sick room door, marriage license in hand, ready for the wedding ceremony. “Billy asked me whether the will would be void after marriage?” Shep- herd continued. “I told him it would.” McClintock decided but to complete his college course because he want- ed to get married this year, She herd said. The wedding was first set for this fall, but later it was postponed to next February because McClintock wanted to finish his course in a business college. About three weeks before death, Billy attended the Dartmouth foot- ball game in New York, Shepherd said, and {t was there that he con- tracted the fatal fever. “He was sick for about ten days béfore he -went to bed,”. Shepherd said. “I summoned Dr. Herman Stolp on November 23 and on the following Wednesday, Billy became delirious. Dr. Stolp told Billy’s con- dition was very serious, He said he believed it was typhoid and asked me about getting another doctor for consultation. I told him to get all the doctors he’ needed. Dr. James Herrick came in on Thursday and Billy was more or less delirious, “While il, Billy asked me about the matter of securing a marriage Meense.

Jordan was ying tonight and po- lice were seeking Newman, who ap- parently made good a threat to ioe Jordan. Both were members of a Dblgbbors hood gag, but Jordan's father had forbidden him to. associate . with Newman. ‘ Newman resented this, police say, and following a dispute, a duel was arranged. Two shot guns were pro- cured and the gang, 30 in number, lined up to watch the “titriller."” Jordan, with parts of his face and head blown off, was taken to a hos- pital. ATE'S ATTORNEY necessary for both parties to go to get a license. I told him that only one wa8 necessary, ‘but wo finally agreed to tell Miss Pope that it was necessary for both to go, This was to hold off the marriage until Billy was better. Miss Pope wanted to get, married right away. “Then I adyiged Miss Pope not to get married right away as with) Billy in bed they, could not have the nice large wedding Mrs. Shepherd wanted.” Shepherd said: “We all loved Miss Pope’ and all wanetd to see her married to Billy. “Is youm income large enough to support you and your wife,” Gorman asked. “Yes it is,” Shepherd replied. Shepherd said he slept in Billy's room because he snored so loud he disturbed, Mrs. Shepherd. “When I told Billy about my snoring disturbing my wife, he said, ‘well dad, come into my room. Your snoring won't disturb me’.” Shepherd said that the youth's mother and Mrs. Shepherd attended school together. , In 1907, Shepherd visited the McClintock home here, when both parents were alive. The elder McClintock died while Shep- herd was on the visit. After the death Mrs, McClintock retained him to handle the sale of a piece of real estate in Texas. Mra. McClintock went down to Texas and there she became quite ill, Shepherd said. Mrs. McClintock returned to Chicago for better medi. cal attention. Shortly afterwards, Shepherd received a wire to come to Chicago as Mrs. McClintock was seriously ill. A few days later an- other wire urged him to come to Chicago and Mrs. Shepherd hurried north, arriving an hour before Mrs. McClintock died. Shepherd said he arrived the day she was buried. Mrs. McClintock’s will appointed Mrs. Shepherd guardian of the boy and Attorney Alexander Reichmann, Chicago, was appointed guardian of the property. A court order allowed the Shepherd's $1,000 a month for care of the boy. “I never handled any part of the property or money,” Shepherd said. After Shepherd completed his story, he telegraphed his wife that everything was all right and that he would join her as soon as possible. “I told all there is to tell, and shal] remain subject to the call of the stato's attorney,” Shepherd said. “I think this whole matter will blow over in a couple of days,” Shepherd said he thought that per- sons with “mercenary motives” started the investigation and an- nounced he would file sult for damages. ——__— More than 100 girl students at the University of Oregon took part in a recent rifle shooting competition.

Center SUNDAY, DECEMBER 28,1924 STATE POULTRI ISSOGIATION TO BE ORGANIZED Meeting Is Called for January 5 in This City. As a result of the success of the state poultry and potato show held in Casper, December 10, 11 and 12, many of the poultry raisers in the state, who were in attendance at the show expressed a desire to effect closer co-operation among all the poultry raisers of the state. It was thought advisable to organize a State Poultry Association, and a meeting has been called for Casper, January 5, to which poultry men from every county in the state have been invited and an attempt will be made to organize a state association at that time. The poultry industry in Wyoming has received a great impetus during the past year and promises to be one of the leading agricultural activities of the state within a very short time. There is a great amount of money already invested in poultry, more than most people realize, and it is the concensus of opinion that greater progress can be made by those interested through the organ- ization of a state association. Some of the objects to be sought by the proposed association are: To Promote in every safe and legitimate way the-interests of the poultry in- dustry in this siate. 1. Through universal purchase of Wyoming produced stock. 2. Through encouraging produc- tion of a standard quality of breed- ing stock and market products. 3. Through the holding of poul- try shows independent of and in con- |# nection with ocal and state fairs. 4. Through co-operation with the Wyoming University at Laramie, 5. Through encouragement of a better marketing system, 6. Through programs to awaken local and state-wide interest in more improved methods of poultry pro- duction. 7. Through campaigns to check diseases. 8. Through legislation benefictal to the poultry industry. It is proposed that any. person. in- terested either directly or indirectly in the ratsing of poultry in the state of Wyoming shall be. eligible to membership in the association, It is anticipated that representa- tives will be in attendance from a major portion of the counties in the state. The meeting will be called to order at 10 am. at a place that will ‘be later designated by the com- | Talkin in charge. Negotiations are under way to secure the co-op- erat ion ahd assistance in an advis- ory capacity of representatiyes of the Extension Service: of the Wyo- ming university. All local pou'try raisers are urged to attend. Watch the newspapers for further information.
