The Coroner remarked that suspicious
are OF evidence, and the questioning on
that line was not continued. The witness
ADDED he did not know enough of Wares
private affairs to state if there was any
motive for the murder. He continued:
"a week ago yesterday Mrs. Spanier
called at my house in my absence. She
called again while [ was at dinner, and
wanted to see me. ! made it my business
to have a witness there before | would

which her character had been impugned.
| replied ! had nothing to do with it, and
was not interested. | told her that / had
been cautioned against having anything to
do with her -"
"WhO told you?"
"E. G. Barth. who lives on Market
stteet between Ninth and Tenth. His
caution was given on general reasons"
The witness, in reply to further ques-
tions, said it was one of Eugene's failings
to leave boxes and other things out of
place around the store This removed
grounds for the theory that robbers had
thrown drawers around when searching
for money and, indeed, weakens the the
DRY of robbery as an incentive for the
brutal murder.
Mrs. Spanier, Wares stepsister, testified
about Ter connection with the case. THE

said, twas about week before the MUIR

row, when we will be married.
Next morning after we were at the
store Mr.. FlEegel went to the store very
early. The landlady informed him that
Eugene was killed."
The Coroner made minute examination
about the dress worn by Fluege and Mrs.
SpanIer on the occasion of the visit to the
store. The description given by Mrs.
Spanier clearly showed that they were not

ffDid be ever speak to you about secret
