.DON|[ HELD |O JURY
Overseer of Zion Must Answer
for the Death Of Mrs.
Judd.
Two Zion Nurses Also Charged
With Responsibility for
Her Death.
Officer. Failed to Find Dowie,
But Will Prosecute the
Search.

Chicago. May 24-The coroners' Jury
which has for two days been listening
to the evidence in the case of Mrs En-
ma Lucy Judd, wife of one of the Off
Gals of John Alexander Dowes Zion
last night returned verdict holding
Dowie, II. w. Judd, husband of the
woman, and Mrs. sprecher and Mrs.
Bratsch to await the action of the
grand jury.
The two women named in the verdict
were in attendance upon Mrs Judd
prior to her death. The charge against
them is criminal responsibility for
the death of Mrs. Judd The evidence
given at the inquest by some Of the
leading physicians of the city, who had
examined Mr.. Judd's body after it had
been eXhumed, was to the effect that
the most simple surgical care would
have prevented the woman's death.
They testified that she was allowed to
die when the slightest attempt to save
her life would have been successful.
This evidence induced the jury to de-
clare that the people named were re-
sponsible for the woman's death.
Papers We're at once made out and
officers sent to arrest Dowie. Judd and
the two women. When the officers ar
rived at Zion. Dowie was not TO be
| found. Mrs. Bratsch vas arrested in
the building and was promptly sent to
the county jail. but II. w. judd and
Mrs. Sprecher were no more in evidence
THAN was Dowie
1t was announced by the police that
4 the search would be kept up until the
missing people were taken into custody.
1t was the opinion of the officers that
Dowiehad gone into hiding for the
night, knowing tina. he would hardly be

Washington, May 24.-An attempt to

large as the states of Rhode Island and

sensation at Nlothcrs' Congress.

Columbus. o., May 24.-There was an
incident in the National Mothers Con-
Igress yesterday which caused decided
sensation and which was only ended by
the delegates INDUCING in a silent pray
ier. followed by the recitation of the
Lords Prayer in concert. The affair
arose during the effort to organize an
Ohio branch of the congress.
Mrs. Theo Briney, president of the
national congress, delivered her annual
address. speaking on The Duty of
Mother to the Child
Nrs. Cora Stanton Brown made an
address.
When the nominations We're called for
in the organization of the Ohio branch,
Mrs. E. NJ. Hatton, Mrs. Lydia Coon
Brown. Mrs. John milford. Mrs. James
X. Hopley. Mrs. Charles G.. Pavey and
Mrs. Stephen II. Clark were named. but
each declined. with the exception of
Mrs. Hatton. and 1t soon appeared that
there was opposition to Mrs. Hatton
which was of personal nature. Con-
fusion reigned and there was much ex-
element in the auditorium. Mrs.
iSchaeffer of Pennsylvania arose and
said she was ashamed of Ohio, and 9th
sers followed in the same line. The Ohio
women promptly defended themselves.
and Mrs. Hatton. whose position Was
unhappy to degree. suggested three
minutes Of silent prayer. which was fol-
lowed by the recitation of the Lord s
Prayer In concert. Mrs Hatton re-
signed from the contest, and truce was
declared by the calling of an Ohio meet
ing to be held at the close of the ses-
sion.
