'FN ~ 80 49,
DENVER, Sept. 3.-Dr. Corey's case
continues to be the leading topic of inter
est in Denver. The inquest on the dead
girl, Rose Burych, will probably be con
cluded to-morrow. The verdict of the
coroner jury is expected to be u%nfavor,
able to the doctor and Mrs. Strong, who
nursed the unfortunate girls. 1t is not
believed that the case when it comes to
trial will prove serious to DR.. Corey.
There is no evidence to show that any
instruments were used except by the girls
themselves, and the most DANGEROUS ele-
ment in the case is the Doctors own ad-
mission that he tried TO assist the girls out
of their trouble instead Of throwing up his
hands in affected horror and leaving them
to die from their own rash endeavors to
hide their shame.
Public sentiment is about equally di-
vided for and against the physician. His
friends have rallied to his support nobly
and the zeal of the district attorneys of
fee in the prosecution is met by the de
termined efforts Of the able counsel and
warm friends of the physician.
George Guertin came up from Pueblo
Sunday to tebder his sympathy as soon as
he heard of the doctors trouble. Doug
Rhodes is here to day. He told Or.
Corey of the unsuccessful attempts of Jas.
Givens to secure medicines and appliances
at Rhodes & Troxell's drug store and his
statement to the clerk that I've must have
them and would get them somewhere.
Mrs. Strong. who nursed the girls and
used to run a millinery store in Cheyenne,
was on the stand to-day. Her testimony
was favorable to the doctor. The most
interesting witness was the girl Lena, who
goes under the name of "Emma Ander-
Son." Assistant District Attorney Alb
bott told me tonight that Lena would be
placed in the home of the Good Shepherd
TO morrow to insure her being on hand at
the trial.
Lena testified that she met Rose
Burych in Omaha. where both were
working in a factory, and they came to
Cheyenne during the July races. Both
roomed on Sixteenth street for two weeks
and then started for Green River. Rose
stopped of at some station, but Emma
went on and stayed at Green River four
days. They met at Cheyenne again and
came TO Denver together. Emma swore:
I'VE came here to be treated by DR..
Corey for what we tried to bring on our.
selves and could not. We had heard Dr..
Corey was a good woman's doctor. James
Givens arranged for cur reception by DIR.
Corey He was the cause Of nv troublp.
When we first came to Denver we went
to Doctor Corey's Office and told him what
we did and v hat we had taken. Rosa
had used an instrument on herself. but [
had not.
''Dr. Corey made an examination and
told Rosa that il she had done much
more she would have killed herself. He
told me | would be all right. | had a
miscarriage in Mrs. Gayette's rooms. DR..
Corey gave me some medicine for that
purpose. Rosa took the same medicine
that | did. DIR. Corey did not give her
anything else than what he gave me and
used no instruments. gave DR.. Corey
$50 and he was to pay for my room rent,
nurse and board.
Rosa told me that Homer Fisher OF
Green River, Wyo., was the cause OF her
trouble He was 35 and Rosa %. | am
81. I believe that Owens also gave the
doctor some money"
DIR. Worthington who made the au-
topsy on Rosa Burych, said: We be
lieve the cause of death to lave been due
to sypitic poisoning resulting from acute
inflammation following abortion" DR..
ESkridge's opinion was the same.
