Belief OF q st. Louis Physician Who For
merly Attended the Family.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, April 1.-The Mitchell Ward
murder case at Memphis has led to the
issuing of a subpoena to a st. Louis physi-
clan, DIR. L. F. Comstock, formerly physi-
clan to the Mitchell family. Mr.. George Nit
chell. tie father of Alice, was in business
in this city in 1860. DIR. T. Griswold Com
stock was the attending physician of Mrs.
Mitchell in her first confinement At that
time Mrs. Mitchell had Insanity and finally
upon the advice of DR.. Comstock, was sent to
an insane asylum, where she renamed some
months and then seemly recovered.
She was. however, insane subsequently, and
was so affected at the time OF the birth Of
Alice. Counsel for Alice Mitchell sent an at
torney from Memphis with commission to
examine DIR. Comstock, and presented to him a
Hypothetical case representing the case Of
Alice Mitchell.
IN deposition made by DIR. Comstock a his
tory OF the case Of the mother was given, and
his decision in the hypothetical case was that
the murderess is of unsound mind and that the
mental trouble is hereditary insanity.

VIOLATING THE POSTAL LAWS.
How 1t is Alleged Produce Dealer Got His
EGGS.

Mr.. Nelson Falk, produce dealer at No. 94S
d street northwest, is locked up at the first
precinct station, charged with three alleged
violations of the postal laws. Falk, it is
charged, has obtained several thousand dollars
worth of eggs from farmers in North Caro-
lima, West Virginia and Pennsylvania
by sending fictitious quotations. After receiv-
ing the eggs. as alleged, it is charged that he
sold them at market prices which we're much
smaller than the figures he sent to induce the
farmers to ship the eggs.
Precinct Detectives Raft and Weeden and In
spector King of the Post Office Department in
vestigated the matter and procured the war
rants from United States Commissioner Mills
The warrants charge that he sent letters to
J. B. Brinkley, Freeman, N. c.; Boyd Il
Learch, Sinks Grove; W. Va, and J.. H.

probably have @ hearing before the United

titled to have the amount retained by the
treasurer covered into the treasury of the
