THE GRAVES SUICIDE.
Probably Used a Mysterl-
GUS Drug.
OPPOSITION T0.AN AUTOPSY
His Widow Believes That Heart Fail
ure Caused Death. t.

DENVER, Sept. 5-The attorneys and
personal friends of DR.. T. Thacher Graves,
the famous prisoner who killed himself ip
his cell in the county Jail by taking some
subtle unknown poison, are opposing the
effort to hold an autopsy aud inquest.
1t is limited that Dr. Graves ended his
own life with some mysterious drug or
combination OF drugs which could only
have been prepared by an expert chemist,
and those who believe him guilty OF the
murder OF Mrs. Barnaby are said to be
connecting the poison by which the doctor
ended his own troubles with that con-
tanned In the mysterious bottle of whisky
sent Mrs Barnaby from "her friends In
the woods"
A Suggestive Hint.
1t is limited that the strange poison was
very likely the same In both cases. Two
leading physicians, who were to have held
an autopsy yesterday, have refused to do
80 until the county commissioners will
guarantee a fee commensurate with the
importance Of the case.
Mrs. Graves, the DOCTORS widow, Is
stoutly opposed to the autopsy and in
quest. She says that after the letters the
doctor left there Is no need of an official
investigation. Her husband was perse-
cuted to death. she says, and that Is all
there IL to 1t. She Is not yet satisfied that
the doctor committed suicide and does not
believe that bis letters were written while
In suicidal frame Of mind
died From shock, Says Mrs. Graves.
She thinks he simply had prepared them
In anticipation of death from sudden
shock, and she believed that be died from
heart failure, due to the publication Of the
last fusilade from the prosecution, oon-
tanning its promise of positive new evil
dence.
DR.. j. w. Hufaker, Mrs. Graves ply
sician, saw her early yesterday morning.
At 0 O'clock he reported that she passed
good night and that she was perfectly
rational and that her mind was clear. The
doctor conducted her to breakfast. and
she ate little.
The DOCTORS attorneys, Judge MacQJw 81
Son, will take legal steps to oppose an
autopsy and inquest. Everybody except
Mrs. Graves is satisfied as to the fact OF
suicide, but her friends will not attempt
to change her opinion at present, as they
believe II would only be useless blow to
her.

letter to her he states the hope that the
sale of this book to sympathetic friends
will provide a fund to keep her and his
mother comfortable during the remainder

Councilman schiIler's Reply.

Editor OF the Tribune.
A few DAYS ago there appeared I'm your
valuable paper what was meant to be an
explanation Of what transpired between
Mr.. Charlonne and myself previous to
that gentleman's discharge by the Town
Council. Facts are facts, and wish to
give you few In this connection. In the
first place, numerous complaints had been
made against Mr.. Charlonne I'm his capac-
ity as street sprinkler. / made him ac-
quainted with said complaints, but he did
not seem to realize what they meant. In
the second place, he became guilty of
gross neglect of duty. On the Fourth of
July, he refused to sprinkle the streets
after 1 had twice ordered him to do so.
He claimed that the Fourth of July being
a legal holiday he was not bound to
sprinkle the streets; bat his contract with
the town authorities excused him from
duty on Sundays only. Everybody re-
members how unpleasant 1t was for the
procession on the Fourth OF July to travel
our dusty streets under a scorching sun.
Such are the facts which, after having
been submitted to the Council, caused MIR.
Charlonne to be- removed. 1t Is no fault
OF mine II he hasnot stood to his contract.
Since then the town Committee has
bought two watering carts and hired
man and horses to sprinkle our streets,
and up to date the change has been bene-
hcial to the taxpayers in the way OF econ
omy and OF faithful service. have done
what thought was best in the interest of
the taxpayers, and hope the latter will
endorse the position I have assumed In
this instance. HECTOR SCHILLER.

AMUSEM ENTS.
Lothrop's Grand Opera House,


The play of Clouds In this amusement
palace attracted good sized audiences at
both the extra matinee and evening per
formances of yesterday, and all were
highly pleased with the production. The
piece Is from the pen of Fred Marsden
and is OF a nature to show the living OF a
vacillating young man who plays q rich
blind to his young wife and child whom
he deserts at the bidding OF his father.
This character portrayed by William DE
Shelley gives him opportunity TO show
clever acting and his appearance greatly
favors his work. Charles barringer, whose
face and excellent work with many first
class road attractions is well remembered,
did we'll. The comedy was well taken
care of by Fred Warren, who does not
overdue the part OF Billy Buddles. Miss
Viola bancroft, who made her initial bow
to Pawtucket audience made pleasing
impression by her work as Ella Randall
The performance was In every detail a
good one and should entertain large au-
diences all the week,
Music Hall.
An exchange In speaking OF the "The
Senator" which is to be at Music Hall
Wednesday evening says: 'u.ouis AL

tions that has been presented at the
Academy I'm long time. The play IL n
bright and PLAUSIBLE picture OF life at the
Capitol with a senator for a central figure,
and In the cast there was not single
weak or unsatisfactory character"
Keith's Opera House.
There was large audience at Keith's
Opera House yesterday afternoon and
evening to witness the new naval play,
"The Ensign" II Is something above
the ordinary melodrama and the theme ia
an attractive one.
Life on board man Of. war when de.
picted on the stage, il undoubtedly Inter-
esting, but when the stirring scenes are
heightened by superb scenic and me,han-
ical effects and doubly intensified by
patriotic sentiment, good breezy humor,
the pulses are quickened and the emo
tions strung to an extraordinary degree.
The hero In this case Is an Ensign In the
United States navy, who in the course OF
a quarrel with deserter who tears down
the American flag, kills him.
For this he Is tried, found guilty and
condemned to death by a court martial.
His life Is saved at the last moment by the
President who In a pretty tableau or
scene, properly speaking, grants a pardon
at the intersession OF little girl. The
story possesses unusual dramatic strength
and powerfully drawn situations. II VIII

and asked Dlnin, Where are You goinRH
ITO the coast" was Emin's reply.
The leader OF the Arabs, who was armed
with a cimetar, then stepped up to him
and saidi You are Emin PaSha, who
killed the Arabs at Victoria Nyanzap
Without waiting for an answer he struck
off Emin's head with the oimetar. EmiD's
