In the case Of Charles Hansen, who
committed suicide Sunday morning by
hanging himself, this morning Coroner

were Meseers. William WALTON, Nsls
Hansen, brother OF the deceased; W.
Worthington, E. Blazston, j. Cor bett,
f. Throbridge and Oloi Larson. The
verdict was that death was caused BY
hanging himself. There were rumors
afloat yesterday and today to the effect
that he was murdered and that the body
was placed where 1t was found by the
perpetrators to hide their crime. The
fact that no money was found on his per-
con after he had done considerable bust
ness the night before was given as
basis for the theory. 1t was also claim
ed that there were marks about his
throat that were not made by the rope.

attention of the jury, but Coroner
Thompson says that the Indications on
his body showed that death resulted
rom hanging and he had been dead pos.
