Mystery of Indian Graves Near Washburn Illinois
Historians and archeologists study about 100 skeletons found on a Woodford County farm near Washburn. University of Illinois archaeologist John C. McGregor identifies the Indians, mostly adults with some children, buried after death without craft artifacts. Theories range from famine and cannibalism during a 1774 snow to an 1730 siege related context. Excavation near Chief Black Partridge’s camp may reveal temporary burial rites and later interment.

Indict Chinchilla Farmer For 400000 Mail Fraud
CHICAGO The government says chinchillas don t breed as fast as investors were led to believe. A 12 count indictment charges Pallock with using the mails to defraud and violating securities laws. Assistant U S Attorney Piragine said Hallock defrauded 400000 from buyers of ChinChilla Inc. firms promising profit of 97540 and stock worth 22750 after eight years. The firm would buy back offspring at 650 a pair. The government says chinchillas do not breed that fast and the firm had little reserve to repurchase offspring.
