rant a positive statement that more than
three grains of arsenic were found. In
the preliminary hearing only a small part
of the body was examined, and the total
amount Of arsenic in the system was esti-
mated. Since then the analysis has been
extended, SO that the report is no longer
inferential. According to the Professors
first finding the amount of arsenic was
between one and two grains, not sufficient
to prove to a certainty that arsenic was
the cause of death. 1t was at least a de-
batable matter. The more complete an
alysis was therefore made, and one of the
purposes was to determine whether arsenic
could be found in the bony structure. Had
it been in large amount the defense would
say that Miss Cramer had been an arsenic
eater, as the stomach and intestines did
not exhibit the usual appearance Of acute
Inflammation from metallic poison. 1t is
understood that the analysis of the bone
did not reveal such an amount of poison
as to furnish the defense ground for such a
claim. 1t is reported, from the most
trustworthy source, that important evil
dence has recently been discovered regard
ing the purchase Of arsenic by one of the
implicated persons, which greatly strength
ems the case against the Malleys. The
trial will begin this week.
