MRS. CODY AGAIN
A Tennessee Suicide Thought to Be the Miss

A Tennessee Suicide Thought to Be the Miss
Ing Woman
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 10.-A woman
giving the name of Mrs. Anderson COM
mitted suicide OH the steamer Rowena
Lee today by taking an overdose OF chloral.
She boarded the steamer at Helena, Ark,
last night with ticket for Memphis.
Yesterday local paper published pho
tograph of the missing Mrs. Cody, the wife
of a prominent Chicago lawyer. Tonight
it transpired that the resemblance of the
dead woman to the newspaper cut is very
marked and there are some who believe
that the unfortunate woman is Mrs. Cody.
1t is by no means certain that the woman
committed suicide. She may have taken
an overdose of the drug by mistake.
