THEPOISONING MYSTERY
That Puzzles Police officials in Del
aware and California.
VICTIMS ATE POISONED CANDY

Sent rs "A Gift From san Francisco to
Dover, and Ex-Congrcssman PEN
ningtou Believes His TWO Daughters
Were Victims of secret Enemy.
Dover, Del, Aug. 16.-Whatever may
be the final result of the investigation
into the cause Of the deaths of Mrs. j.
p. Dunning and her sister, Mrs. J. d.
Deane, all the indications at present
are that both women lost their lives by
arsenical poisoning taken in the candy
sent from San Francisco by person at
present unknown The funeral of both
the victims took place yesterday from
the home Of their father, EX-Congress-
man Pennington. Rror to the services
Coroner Walls began an investigation.
DR.. Bishop, who attended the women
after they had been taken i'll, gave 1t
as his opinion that the deaths were due
to poisoned c~lndy. No analysis Of the
candy has yet been made, but Mr.. Pen
nington will place samples of it in the
hands of several expert chemists. on
the result of these tests he proposes to
have further action. Minute examina-
tion of the box, wrapper and contents
has only served TO deepen the mystery
as to The identity Of the sender
Within the box was common,
plain white handkerchief, with the price
mark, 25 cents, still on one corner. The
note signed Mrs. c." is written on
ruled white paper In lead pencil, and
the words with love for yourself and
baby are written jerkily and in an
entirely different hand from the super
scriptiOn, very like a woman's hand.
There are two kinds Of chocolate candy
in the box, one hard and similar to a
confectioners make, the other soft,
with every appearance Of being home
made. The impression of DR.. Bishop
is that the poison will be found in the
latter kind. Mr. Pennington believes
that the box with pure candy was
purchased, after which 1t was opened
and the poisoned candy placed along
side with the good. He states it as his
firm belief that his daughters were In
tentlonally poisoned, but thinks the
candy was only intended for Mrs. Dun
ming and her baby He states that he
will make every effort to solve the
mystery surrounding the case.
dispatch from San Francisco says
that none Of the many friends and ac-
qualntances in that city Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Dunning can offer any plausible
information why any one in San Fran
cisco should send poison to Dover
Arguing on the theory that the trag-
edy was the result of a carefully plan
ned act on the part of some one who
desired to take Mrs. Dunnlng's life, the
deceased's San Francisco friends are
unable to suggest any reasonable mo-
tive. The suggestion that the poison
Ing was intentional is secuted by those
