Physicians Declare 1t Was Due to Natu-
raj Causes Only.
An inquiry into the circumstances of tho
death of Mrs. Catherine Kavanagh from al
legged malpractice at 800 Linden avenue. on
the 14th inst, was resumed before the COro-
ner yesterday afternoon.
DR.. Z. j. Homgren, who was accused by
the husband of the deceased of having per-
formed criminal operation. testified that
when Mrs. Kavanagh first visited him she
complained of her condition, of being very
poor, and asked him to do something to re-
lieVe her. He volunteered to attend her
without charge and advised her not to have
an operation performed. Afterward lie
called at her house to see her children and
cautioned her second time not 10 have an
operation performed. She begged him TO
relieve her, but he positively refused.
Kavanagh took him to see her the night
she died from perit0nitis, caused by an acct
dent.
DR.. It. j. james of 719 McAllister street.
who was called in to consult with DR. Holm
gren, deposed that when he arrived at the
house Mrs. Kavanagh declared that nothing
had been done to relieve her. The symp-
toms of her case showed that death was
from natural causes, resulting from an acci-
dent.
Miss T. B. Cossack, an assistant at the
Hahnemaun College, teSllHeQ tnaL MrS.
Kavanagh called upon her and asked that
something be done to relieve her. Mrs.
Kavanagh said she was willing to risk any
thing. but she was told that no one at the
college would do anything for her of Grim
nal nature. The witness promised 10 give
her free treatment. Mrs. kavanagh then
said: Il might better be dead than have
the baby" She further said that she could
get George W. O'Donnell, student, TO re-
lieve her for $50.
Young O'Donnell denied that he had ever
seen Mrs. Kavanagh or that she had ever
been to his fathers office.
The jury, after celebrating 20 minutes,
found that Mrs. Kayanagh came 10 her
death from -peritOnitis; and further
found that she came to her death by reason
of premature birth brought on by eX-
posture and Worry. or by the use of an in
strument III her own hand.
And we further fnd," so the verdict
concludes, "that the physicians in attend
ance on the deceased are altogether free
from blame"
