Professor Aiken, of the Maryland Univer-
sity, who has just analysed the stomach of
Maj. Henry Wharton, son of Mrs. Wharton,
now imprisoned in the Jail on the charge of
poisoning persons, reports to the District
Attorney that no traces of poisoning were
found. Major Wharton died about two years
ago, having his life insured for large sum,
and since the death of Gen. Ketchum, who it
is charged, was poisoned by Mrs. Wharton,
suspicious were aroused that she had poisoned
her son to secure the life insurance. The
report tof Prof Aiken therefore exonerates
her of this charge. Two indictments are
now against her, one for poisoning Gen.
Ketchum, and the other for poisoning Mr..
Van Ness.
