I DISQUIETING REPORTS
OFFICIALLY DENIED
Further Military Precautions
Not Concidored Necessary'
By th: Authorities. ,
Washington, March 24.-;-With dis(l'trll
in i? ports 1om Mexico officially
<lei ie<l l'rom all sourcse, Administration
ol.iwials set led down again
to. ight to await word that Villa and
his b&udits had been captured or kile?l
by American or Mexican troops.
Apprehension aroused by reports that
the Carranza garrison at Chihuahua
I City had joined the bandits had completely
subsided. While Congress still
bcjftrd talk of rumors of impending
bonier disturbances, the White House,
State and War Departments were satisfied
that nothing had arisen beyond
the border to justify additional military
precautions.
No confirmation had reached the
War Department of advices to General
Calles, Carranza Governor of SonK.
or|p, that Villa was surrounded by
B columns of Mexican and American
roops near Nainiquipa. It was noted
^^B/^he War Department, however,
^^B' ? \General Funston placed some
Ince in unoflicial report that
WT* ' /ral Pershing's troops already had
y and engaged the bandits.

-MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS
Surgeons state men are slightly
more subject to appendicitis than women.
Conway people should know
that a few doses of simple buckthorn
hark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Adler:i-ka,
often relieve or prevent ap-^
pdjjhlicitis. This mixture removes
such surprising foul matter that ONE
SPOONFUL relieves almost ANY
CASE constipation, sour stomach or
gas. The INSTANT, easy action of
Adler-i-ka is surprising. Conway

To trade with merchants up to date.

NEW YORK POISON MYSTERY!
|
Eoul Play Suspected in Death of
Michigan Couple.
. <n i
New York.?l/Cgal and police authorities
of New York and Grand
Rapids, Mich., arc cooperating to investigate
the death of John E. Peck
a wealthy drug dealers of Grand RapI
ids, and of his wife, both of whom
died here recently while visiting their
daughter and son-in-law, Dr. Warren
Waite.
Two autopsies performed in Grand
| Rapids after the body of Mr. Peck
had been exhumed discovered arsenic
in the stomach and intestines. The
body of Mrs. Peck had been cremated.
Mrs. Peck died here suddenly on
January 29. Her husband came to
New York a short time after hoi
death to console his daughter, and
died on March 12. Until a day or
two before his death he had seemed to
be in excellent health. Mr. Peck left
an estate valued at more than $1,000,000
divided between his daughter, j
Mrs. Waite, and his son, Percy Peck,!
of Grand Rapids.
rpi. _ XT ' i. .
i ne incw ioi'k district attorney has I
in his possession a telegram signed
"K." addressed to Percy Peck which
first caused suspicions that Mr. Peck
did not die from natural causes. The!
message said:
"Suspicions aroused. Demand uu-|
topsies. Examine body."
The local authorities have not an-1
nounccd the name of the sender oft
this telegram if they have discovered
it. ,
According to information received
by the district attorney from (Wand
Rapids, affects of the arsenic found |
in Mr. Peck's stomach were noticeable
in the brain tissue, proof that the poi-,
son was administered before tiu (
death. The undertaker asserted that
|
ihere was no arsenic in his cnibabnir.}
fluid.
Dr. Waite and his wife took Mr. |
Peck's body hack to (1 and Rapids, j
Mis. Waite remained there at tin j
home of relatives and reports fro in i
t'.rand Rapids say that she has been j
ill for several days, a physician attri-i
billing her condition tv> hysteria. D' J
Waite returned to Now York and yes j
ti rday lie liad a long talk with the'
I
districi attorney regarding tlio case.
lie declined to make any .statement.
Dr. Waitc told tlio district attorney |
that he had studied dentistry at the
I nivorsity of Michigan and taken aj
ourse in dentistry for a year at aj
university in Scotland. He declared,
that he had been first told that the1
police were investigating' his fatherin-law's
death last Monday. Thcrcup-j
on he said ho had telegraphed to his
brother-in-law in Grand Rapids, demanding'
an autopsy.
Another car load of hogs went off
rem lid., point the latter oart of
ast week consigned to the merkets in
v'irginia. It begins to look as if the
armors had gone into stock raisi/.g,
on a larger scale than formerly audi
are finding out that there are otherj
things besides cotton from which,
money may be made.
