THE CORONER'S JURY.
Returns Verdict IN the Case Of
the Dead Soldier.

That the said VIM. Murdon came
to his death in Honolulu, September Z,
the result of catarrhal pneumonia
Such was the verdict returned yes
terday afternoon at the inquest held
on the soldier, member of the Sixth
Artillery, whose death a few days ago
gave promise of bringing out some
sensational developments.
DR.. S. a. Yule, assistant surgeon at
Buena Vista, was the first witness. 1t
was he who signed the certificate Civ
ing the cause of death as catarrhal
pneumonia induced by anaesthetics adj
ministered by dentist. On the stand
he stated that the certificate expressed
his opinion. The soldier had gone to
the dentist on or about August 81.
Shortly afterward he contracted ca
tarrhal pneumonia which, few days
later resulted in death.
DR.. Grossman testified that the de-
ceased had come to him for treatment
of tooth. He could not bear the pain
and desired an anaesthetic, but wit
ness babe him leave and secure a ply
stefan. Witness did not think that an
aesthetics should be administered by
dentists except in rare cases, without
the presence of a physician. The next
time Murdon called he was accompa-
MED by DR.. Yule, who did not think an
anaesthetic necessary. Consequently
witness would not administer it, and
the deceased left the Office.
DR.. Clark was next called. He stated
that he had treated several soldiers,
but the deceased had never been in
his office; had not administered anaes-
thetics to soldiers.
In view of the testimony. the jury
returned verdict in accordance with
the result of the autopsy, which gave
catarrhal pneumonia as the cause of
death.
