THE MYSTERY SOLVED.
Death Of Mrs. Ingers5ll Was Due ia
Arscnfcal Poison.


The mystery surrounding the death of
Mrs. May E. 1ngersoll at No. 2o7 street
northwest early yesterday morning, as
published in yesterdays Star, was solved
by Deputy Coroner Glazebrook, when he
made the autopsy late in the afternoon
Arsenical poison was found, and the con-
clusion that death was caused thereby
from self-administered dose, was reached.
Frederick Ingersoll, husband of the I'M
fortunate woman, reached the city from
Baltimore yesterday morning, and when
he learned of what had happened he has
tened to the morgue, reaching there at the
time the autopsy was being performed.
His Wife'S sudden death had affected him
TO marked degree, and, while he declared
their domestic life had been happy, with
the exception of some little differences he
was certain that she had committed sui
eide. On two previous occasions. he said,
she had made such attempts, but failed,
and the last time she warned him that she
would succeed if she ever made another
effort.
Mrs. Beck, in whose house the suicide
was committed, and others in the house.
exhibited a feeling of surprise and almost
doubted the truth of what the autopsy
showed In the room there was no evil
dence of poison to be found, and the young
woman, they said, had not seemed despond-
ent. She did worry considerably, however,
over the report that her sister had died.
Persons in the house had become very
much attached to her, ard Sunday night
as stated in yesterdays Star, she was up
with the members of the household until
late hour. When she asked Mrs. Beck the
evening before her death not to call her in
the morning, she probably went at once to
her room and took the fatal dose. When
found her body was cold, and life had evil
IDENTIFY been extinct for several hours
Mr.. Ingersoll stated that his wife was
born in Milwaukee, and he married her in
Chicago about nine years ago.
When the coroner had given certificate
of death Undertakers Perry & Vinson took
charge of the body for the husband The
latter had not decided this morning what
disposition he would make of the body.

Approval has been given by the various

postal card. The main objection to the
present card was that the letters I'm the
words are too ornamental. In the hasty

other ornamentation cause blurring from
