CHICAGO, May 2.—Leon Kewney, said to. be a member of a well-to-do Indiana family and related to the nobility of Ger- many, is under arrest here on the charge of operating an extensive confidence The police say he confessed and implicated two other men, who &re being sought. Sorrowing relatives of the dead were the particular prey of the alleged swindlers, but sometimes newly-wedded persons were defrauded. Business 15 sald to have been done under the name of the Itoline com- pany and all transactions were based death and marriage notices appearing out-of-town newspapers. The “company” owned a supply of cheap jewelry. These articles, in neatly ad- dressed packages, were sent to the dead of other citles always ‘collect.”” The de- liveries were 50 timed as to reach the house after the day of the funeral, and the first thought of the survivors was that there was some séntimental value clinging to the article and the deceased. The bill, ranging from $ to $20, was gladly paid without examination of the contents. In the case of newly-married persons the impression was that it was a present from somebody who forgot to pay for the goods and the bill was usually paid, A federal agent was sent here Washington to work on the case. De- tectives found a letter In which the ex- ecutors of James T. McClurg, who died recently in Denver, sent the “‘company” a check for $12 In payment for spectagles.

The last two packages were ordered re- turned to Overton if not delivered. This move on the part of the sender would in- dicate, so the express company , officials belleve, that the alleged swindlers were moving from town to town, sending the packages from small insignificant places to the big clties.

SALT LAKE CITY, May 2.—Sunday morning slumber of this oity was disturbed by a violent rocking of the earth, which lasted apparently about two seconds, al- though the selsmograph at the state uni- versity recorded a disturbance of thirty seconds. The earthquake was quite sharp and caused considerable damage to crockery, chimneys and old adobe houses. The tremor was local, being confined within a radius of fifty miles. Slight damage is reported from the towns of Bingham and Garfield. The shock oc- curred at 7:28 a. m. and was followed by two other shocks, one at 8:38 a. m. and the other at 11:24. Local sclentists say that the shock was caused by the slipping of a great fault at the base of the Wasatch mountains east of the city. When this movement is com- pleted no more quakes will originate in this valley.
