THE CASE OF CORNELIA sHOULTz.
The Funeral Postponed-A Letter from I.
Il. brooks.

1t was the original intention TO have
the funeral OF COrnelia ShOultz, the girl
who died at the Farmers Home, take
place Yesterday afternoon, but after a
consultation among the officials having
charge Of the case, Chief of Police Del
brugge and Coroner Schultz, it was de-
cided TO postpone action in that partic-
ular for day or two, in the hope OF OBJ
tanning further light upon the manner
of her death, IL being the desire of the
authorities 10 get at the bottom OF GER
tain features OF the case.
A letter was received yesterday by Cor
oner Schultze from Il. K. Brooks, Of
Washington, ID. c., in which the writer
stated the girl had no relatives, 50 far
as he could ascertain. She had been
absent from Washington about two
years. She owned u house in that city
which rents for $50 per month, but her
agent says she has numerous creditors.
He is willing to pay the expenses Of
the funeral, but adds that he has but
about S15 To the girls credit. The dead
girl was line musician, spoke two or
three languages, and is said TO be a
graduate OF NaSsar.
Clara Moss requests the REGISTER to
say that, as some persons might con
strue the published fact that Alex. Wal
lace was found in her house by Chief
Delbrugge, into a suppoSition that he
frequented the place, she wished it
stated he only came there because Of
the girls death, to give her information.
She urged Wallace to 60 up To the
Farmers Home to take care OF the body,
but he refused. Miss Moss sent word
to police headquarters yesterday that
she would pay the expenses of the
burial, if the interment took place here.
