ACCUSES HIS WIFE.
DIR. IL. H.. Patton, Dying, Declares
He Was Poisoned.

Terrc Hautc, Ind, April 25.-Dr. b.
l.. Patton, a physician VINO is well
known throughout three states as n
| specialist in the cure of cancer, and
who is the proprietor Of a large sani-
tarium in this city, is lying ut the
point Of death from the effects of
arsenic and chloroform poison, which
he claims was administered by his
wife. For some months past the ply
sician has been materially losing
strength, until a few days ago he was
unable to attend his practice. He was
compelled to seek his bed and now lies
under the care of three doctors, who
state that his chances for recovery are
very slight. Since his illness forced
him to take to his bed the physician
has reiterated time and again i'll the
hearing of his brother doctors that his
wife was the cause of his condition..
The attending physicians were in
clincd at first to think that their pa
tent wa mildly insane on the subject,
but were at last led to believe that
there might be some truth in his state
ments. Late last night the invalid
asked that the prosecutor and coroner
be summoned, and this was done. n
sworn statement was made by the dy-
ing man and taken down by both the
coroner and prosecutor. In addition
DR.. Patton requested that a post-mor-
tenn examination Of his body be made
i'm order that the true cause of his
death might be ascertained.
A representative of the Associated
Press was present when the ante-mor-
TEN statements were made and the
doctor said:
II know that | have been poisoned,
and | also realize that | have but a
short time to live. made my will last
Monday, and have also asked that n
post-mortem examination he held. If
| should chance to recover ! intend TO
prosecute my wife, but if ! should die
| have so arranged that the law may
take its course
Mrs. Julia Patton, the accused
woman, has filed proceedings for a di-
vorce and is now at one of her farms
near New Market, Ind. She has been
married four times and is worth some
thing over $100,000 in her own right.
No steps have yet been taken to appre-
bend her.
