Secret efforts by the of- flclals and assistants falled to bring results, and today a large party join- ed in the hunt, Second Body Located. One body was found shortly after the work started. The motor car to which it was bound was brought up to within four feet of the surface, but because of the strong tide work- ers had difficulty in keeping it from slipping back to the river bed again, Divers later reported having found the body of another' man similarly tled to a machine at the bottom of the river. One man is said to he a negro, The murders are thought to be connected ' with- bandits' activities in the vicinity of Bonner Springs, Kan., where Deputy Marshal Leroy Dawmron was killed August 22 in a tight with robbers of the Farmers' State-bank. Mr. Kepler sald today he thought one of the murdered men was a member of the band of bandits who killed Damron.

It s in the cen- ter of a powerful eddy, and the rush- ing tide .severely handicaps the work of investigators. Mr. Keépler closely questioned the divers after being informed that a second body had been located. Then he telephoned a statement of the die- covery to the police here, declaring himself convinced that the men had not seen the same body twice, as had been his original theory.

Mr. Bock has money . now, and I want her to have -her share. “I want to know that she is getting along all right. I've been here before trying to find her.

My at- torney, John T. Duffy, is helping me. “John wants me to find her too, now, so I'll get it out of my mind,” she added. “Things will never be right between us until I find the other woman,"” added the second Mrs. Bock. ‘‘Her shadow is between us.
