A AFFAIR.

manned in a comatose condition for over
one hundred hours. Mrs. Annie walker.
whose case has attracted widespread at
~tention. regained consciousness tonight.
This fact. however. did not tend 10 lessen
the mystery surrounding her. for she
showed every sign of having lost her rea-
SON. The mystery became all the deeper
when IL became known that the authorities
at Detroit. where her husband is supposed
to have committed suicide. are of the
opinion that Walker was murdered. IL il
said that the Michigan officers had a post
mortem examination OF the body and that
IL disclosed the lungs free from water.
which indicted that Walker was dead when
his body went into the water. There was
q bullet wound in the head and a deep cut,
such as would have resulted from a wound
innicted by some blunt instrument An
other mysterious incident js the fact that
Walkers relatives evidently do not recog-
nize Mrs. Walker. for the money which
was sent to this city with her was made
payable to Mrs. Mcintyre. which is said to
have been her name before she met Walker.
Mrs Wilce, said TO be Mrs Walkers half

as a reason for continuance for several
days. Although the judge is known to be
opposed to delays in this trial 1t is be-
lieved, however. that he will grant the
continuance. In that case the trial will
not likely be resumed before next Mon
day. In the meantime Theodore Durrant
