the clever Partisan detectives. No mo-
tive for the deliberate assassination
was made known during the trial Of

own lips remained sealed.

fore the murder the two men had had

shown that oBrien murdered Waddeil

Saturday a middIe-aged lady Civ
ing the name OF Mrs. Smith. Of Iowa
CITY. engaged board at the residence
Of q. Il. Wells. on Mississippi ave.
nue.. Davenport. paying therefor a
week in advance. Sunday morning
she complained of feeling i'll. She
lay down and before medical at
tendance could be summoned
she expired. Among her effects
was found check on the
Iowa City National bank for
$40 payable - Mrs. j. l.. Carney.
and this instead OF "Smith" is SUP.
posed to be her name. The lady told
the people ut the boarding house that
she was married. and had q daugh-
ter Of 8 years. but that she and her
husband had separated. She also
stated that she was proprietress OF
n boarding house at Iowa City and
had come to Davenport on pleasure
and recreation trip.
Sensational Developments.
Developments OF a sensational
character followed an examination of
the body last night, Drs. DE Almond
and Allen, who conducted an au-
topsy. declaring death the result Of
an attempted abortion. They dis
covered unmistakable evidence OF
malpractice aud said the child had
been dead for some time. It is pre-
sumed the object OF Mrs. Carney's
visit to Davenport was to submit to
the malpractitioner's work. Thus
she had a sufficient cause to parade
under an assumed name to prevent
detection as Mrs. Carney. Physi-
cirns state the operation could have
been performed as late rs SATURDAY.,
the date Of her arrival in Daven port.
Gangrene set in and was the ultimate
cause OF her demise.
Husband on the scene.
Inquiry at Iowa City disclosed the
fact that the deceased's husband
lived there and in response to a tele-
gram he arrived in Davenport this
morning. Mr.. Carney states that his
wife left Iowa City without his
knowledge. He is IN agent for the
Farmers Insurance company OF
Cedar Rapids. They were married
Is years ago. 1t is said that last
spring Mrs. Carney applied for di-
vorce. but recently they patched
matters up and had been living to-
gether ut the Cover house, OF which
Mrs. Carney was proprietress. The
circumstances of Mrs. Carney's
death are very dark and suspicious
and IL is not improbable that a Dav-
export physic will be called to an
accounting. MIR. Carney has deter.
mined to investigate It to the bitter
end.
