London, May 13.--~The Marquis of Queensbury, who succeeded his father, the eighth marquis, in. 1900, has be come a convert to the Roman Catheo- lic church. The late marquis was no- torious +4n many ways, especially as the inventor of the set of prize ring rules which bears his name A veunger son is Lovd Alived Doug- Jas, the proprietor of the Academy and a writer of symbolic, decadent verse, Can Prove Use Of Chloral. As to the manner of death of the ten murdered persons whose bodies were dhscovered in a little patch of ground guarded by closely woven wire netting, the silence of the officers ia reponse to queries as to the arrest of ome or more accomplices provides the only answer. That the victims came to their deaths through the administration of a deadly amount of chloral has been proven. The places at which the drug was purchased during the last «ight years have been found. That the insnimate corpses then were dismembered either in a cham- ber of horrors on the sccond flgor of the Guinness home or in the basement hast been shown to the satisfaction of the investigators, The following are extracts from the letters * written hy Mes, Guiness to Andrew Helgeldin, one of Wr vie time : "You are to me a king, I love and respect you. I know from your letters that you must have a loving heart, honest and faithfal. Come to me. Your bride awaits you. We shall - be bappy bere ak a king and queen in the mest beautiful home in Northern Indiana. "I depend om you break, if you should fail me now. love you as I never loved before. "Do not trust banks. Sell or mort gage vour panch and stocks and bring the money sewed up in your clothes. Do not go to the hotel. Let me know on what train' yoa will come and 1 will meet you with the carriage at the station. I am gluwd to think you never married, All these years you were waiting for the ove woman you could love. You are to me the one man in all the world. 1 dream of you, my love, and wait your coming," Additional evidence regarding the methods by which the persons whose corpses were found on the Guinness farm met death was unearthed yester day morning.
