EXHUMED THE BODY
OF MRS. SLINKEY
THOROUGH CHEMICAL ANALY-

The General Opinion Is That Mrs.
Slinkey Ended Her Own Life
by Hanging.

body of Mrs. James E. Slinkey, found last

coroner Edmund e. Hill, acting on the
anonymous letter which he received last
Sunday, and In which the writer. who
signs him or herself, "A Friend" claims
that Mrs. Slinkey met her death by foul
means, headed the corps of physicians
who We're present and directed the oper-
atoms. Besides DR.. Hill there were DR..
Aabala. autopsy physician; Dr. E. S.
howard, professor of anatomy at the Col
lege OF Physicians; ex-Coroner Hughes.
DR.. .Torney; James E. Slinkey, the hus-
band of the deceased; T. ]. Crowley, his
attorney, and Detective Dillon, who is
working on the case.
The body was exhumed and removed to
the receiving vault, where the physicians
collected for the dissection Mr. Slinkey
looked upon the remains of his wife Just
before the autopsy and seemed much af
fected. The heart, stomach and bladder
We're removed from the body; pieces of
one lung, the liver, spleen and intestines
were also taken. a chemical analysis
will be made by l.. S. Crackbon at once
for the purpose of discovering any
traces of poisoning, should they exist. In
this he will be assisted by DR. Hill, who
is much interested in the outcome of the
examination.
All the physicians who were present at
the autopsy yesterday are unanimous in
the opinion that Mrs. Slinkey met her
death from strangulation. All the exter-
nal indications, they claim, point to this
mode of lifes exit. According to their
examination yesterday afternoon, there
are no external indications of poisoning.
Until chemical analysis of the detached
organs is made nothing positive can be
determined as to the internal indications

will not be known until Friday.
The husband Of the dead woman called
on the Coroner again this morning and
he courts the fullest investigation of the
death of his wife. He said she had been
suffering from melancholia and mental
depression for some time prior TO her
death A few days before her body was
found she asked her physician If death
from strangulation was attended with
great physical suffering.
The Coroner and assisting physicians
are prone to believe that the anonymous
writer has played them joke. yet they
will investigate the matter fully,

Fortunes Made During the War.

A great number of people have made
fortunes during the war by investing
in securities. In making these invest
ments it required large capital. But
fortunes were also obtained by the fol-
lowing parties in return for investments
of sums of money so small they were
never missed. F. Vette, grocer, north

San Francisco, Cal, purchased a 81

Not long ago Mr.. Hale, who has ell
along professed to be heartily tired of
the onerous duties devolving upon the
warden of a State Prison, learned to- his
surprise and extreme displeasure that
Governor Gage had virtually selected
his successor in the person of Martin
Acquire of Los Angeles, former
Sheriff Of that city. Ever since then
his friends have been at work trying
to change the tide of affairs, but with
little apparent success. So now Mr..
Eale goes to Sacramento to see what
the effect of his personal magnetism

The real reason why Warden Hale
is said to be in disfavor with the lead
ing political lights is that when asked
to make a subscription to the State
Central Committee he sent check for
only $50. A member advised that this
be returned, but it was not, and now
the warden has dose Of medicine not
to his liking prepared.

Kearney-Byington Contest.

The recount in the contest brought by
DR.. Peter A. Kearney against Lewis f.
Byington is going steadily on and each
day sees Kearney falling behind. Owing
to the rulings of the court both have been
losing. but Byingtons lead over his OPP
ponent gained steadily. Yesterday the
first gain was noted. The official returns
from the Thirteenth Precinct of the
Forty-fourth District gave Byington
sixty-two. These figures were clearly
wrong. The recount, after six votes had
been ruled out by Judge Belcher. gave
Byington sixty-five votes. a gain of three
clear, which, added to the six ruled out
gives Byington gain of nine votes. At
the close of the days count Byington had
lost fourteen votes and Kearney sixty,
giving Byington a gain of forty-six.

AN UNKNOWN SUICIDE.
Believed to Be Mrs. Kaelber of Mar
tinez, Contra Costa County.

A woman about 80 years old, supposed
to be Mrs. Kaelber, committed suicide
last Tuesday night by taking half the
contents of a six-ounce bottle of carboic
acid. She engaged a room last Monday
in the Carroll House, 124 Sixth street. She
represented that she was a stranger and
that she wanted employment. Mrs. Shee-
han, the landlady. got her some washing
to do for yesterday, but when the ledger
was called she failed to respond. The
door of her room was tightly locked, and
the windows and the transom over the
door We're shut. The door was broken in
and the dead body of the unfortunate
woman was seen living on the bed. The
half-empty bottle of carbolic acid lying
on the bureau at the head Of the bed told
the rest OF the story.
Among her effects was found the fol-
lowing letter addressed 10 Mrs. Kaelber
at Martinez:
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 20, 1898.
Dear Friend Mrs. Kaelber: I will drop you
few lines To let you know that l saw Mrs
Cunningham on Sixth street last night, and
she told me TO write to you and tell you that
the baby is very sick just now, and she wishes
you would come down to the city as soon as
you can. Yours respectfully, HENRY.
