ACCUSED oF POISONING

The mystery surrounding the death,
en- May II last, of Miss Elizabeth
Knapp, of Wellsboro, Pa, has been
partially cleared by the arrest of Miss
Charlotte Dutton, alias Howell, on q
warrant charging her with murder.
Miss Knapp, who made her home in
the family of Chauncey Howell. be-
came suddenly ill on May 16 and died
the following day. She maintained
to the last that she had been poisoned.
The coroner's jury made an investiga-
ton and fnallyNrendered verdict that
"the deceased came to her death by a
corrosive poison administered either
by herself or some unknown person."
Miss Knapp's friends were not satisfied
with the verdict and sought the aid OF
the Wilkinson Detective Agency of
New York to assist in ascertaining how
Miss Knapp met her death. The de-
tectives worked for six weeks on the
case and secured enough evidence to
warrant the arrest of Miss Dutton.
Miss Dutton has been living in the fam
lily of Howell, also. 1t is charged by
the friends of Miss Knapp that she was
Jealous of the latter and took this
means to get rid of her. There are
two other mysterious deaths which oc-
CURED in the Howell family which will
probably be charged to Miss Dutton.
Shortly after her appearance at the
Howell residence the latter's wife died
under peculiar circumstances. Not long
after his wife's death young son died
with symptoms Of poisoning, and it
is alleged that both were poisoned by
Miss Dutton, who now claims that she
is married to Howell. The bodies of
all the supposed victims will be ex-
humed for examination, and it is
claimed that if the result is what the
detectives have reason to believe they
will have enough evidence to fasten at
least three murders on the accused
young woman.
In revenge for being whipped by her
mother, Maud Corbin, of Franklin, Pa,
a 13-year-old girl, made az attempt to
poison the entire family by putting
fahberries, deadly poison, in tea and
coffee. Her father, who drank some of
the coffee, noticed it had q bitter and
peculiar taste, and ordered it thrown
out. While throwing the coffee out
Mrs. Corbip, the girls mother, noticed
some brown-yellow berries among the
grounds, which on investigation were
found to be ishberries, which she had
been using for medical purposes. An
examination was made of the tea, and
lot of the berries were found in it.
The girl, when accused of doing the
act, did not deny it, but started TO cry
and ran from the house, and she has
not yet returned.
