Accused Of Poisoning Her Two
Husbands.
Insurance Money Alleged to Have
Been the Motive for Both Grimes.
The Story of the Deeds.

Cayuga, Ont, Nov. 1.-THE trial Of Mrs.
Onve Adele SternamAn, for the alleged poi
poning of her husband, in June. 1 S96.w Is
begun at the sssizes here this morning te-
fore Chief Justice Armour and Jury.
B. B. Osle-, Q. c., opened the case for
the crown In long speech. The crown will
Pndeayor to show that Mrs. Sternaman
caused thedeath of both her first and second
husbands by poisoning, the motive in .dch
Cast being the securing of a few thou
sand dollars of life insurance.
Tne case has excited intense interest.
| The town is thronged with farmers and
| others, who eagerly sought admission
| to the courthouse. Following is brief
story OF the case:
| In 1889 Ezra E. Chipman and Olive A.
SeveLpiper were marri led here. and
shortly afterward moved to Buffalo. In
1891 Chapman met George II. Sternaman,
whoiu he took to his home and introduced
t.. his family.
Very sooa afterward au attachment
sprang up between Sternaman and Mrs.
ChipmaL. In december, 1895, Chipm4n
lied under suspicious circumstances. Mrs.
Chipman MADE application for and was
paid the insurance money on Chpnian's
life. which amounted to 81 $50.
Young Sternaman continued To live with
the widow and Oh February %, 1896, he
married her. a week later Sternam man
transferred his insurance policies to his
wife. The couple seemedhappy and nothing
occurred ~ mar their welded bliss until
June ., 1856. when George became seriously
i'll.
The svInptcms We're identical with those
Of ChiDman. violent vomiting being the
chief result in each case. Sternanian died
August s. following. After the death and
interEient OF the husband, Mrs. Sternaman,
the widow, set about collecting the insur
alce uCn eys.
About inns time SternaInan's mother
visited the county crown attorney Of
Cayuga county, and demanded an investiga-
ton into Sternamln's death. The au-
topsy totally destroyed the diagnosis OF
the attending physicians. A large guam
tity of arsenic was found in the stomach,
liver and brain.
As 4 result the curoner's jury brought in
the verdict Of death by arsenical poiscn-
ing and Mrs. Sternaman's arrest in Buffalo
followed. Then began the historic fight
OF B1rrister Ferdinand Duck WITT for Mrs.
Sternaman's liberty, and against the ex-
tradition proceedings instituted by the
Ontario government.
First the contest waged in the local
courts Of the city of Buff alo, and then was
carried to the supre me court o; the state.
but iii all places Mrs. Sternaman was de
teated and finally eXtradited.
