Grave Robbers At Work and fires Sweep Indiana Towns

A string of odd incidents and disasters across Indiana is reported. Grave robbers strike Franklin twice, Elkhart expands police studies, and a Wilkin son farm burns. Fires devastate Hinshaw shops at Westfield and local barns at Delphi. Gas firms in Farmland form a cartel to raise rates, while a weather prophet in Brazil predicts a mild winter. Local crimes include a Shelbyville gun accident and a poisoning lawsuit in Greensburg. Local schools, county fairs, and railway incidents keep communities vigilant as weather and economy affect daily life.
