 Will Make Explanation.
 Father Philips friends expect to make a lengthy explanation of the priests acts up to May 9, the day on which he Is supposed to have met his death. The po- lice theory so far is that the priest died in Stanley's room either after having been drugged for robbery or simply as result of intoxication and excitement, and that Stanley was afraid to notify the authorities putting it off from day to day. The body was found In such po- sition, they say, as to make 1t look as if 1t had been carried into the room where it was found from the larger ad- joining room, and there laid out. Detec- tive Sergeant Kirnan, who investigated the case, said Stanley admitted he used morphine. He told Kirnan that he him. self put the bed clothing from the window of the room in which the priest was found dead before he went away Thursday morning. There is a gas jet in the large room adjoining the one in which the body was found. Kirnan says that the light from this shines directly Into the small CT room, and that 1t would be impossible for any person to have goneinto the room even at night without discovering the body. The doctor said that he went there a number of times, but never saw the body. The odor from the body was noticed by the neighbors for several days. When the detectives asked Stanley If he had not detected it he said he had, and had made inquiries about 1t but thought 1t came from a fish market next door.
 The detectives are in possession of photograph of the young women Stanley identified as his wife. Kirnan says that last Thursday she went to Stanley house and tried to get in, but finding II locked went down to the rooms of Mrs. Higgins, the janitress. Mrs. Higgins sug- gested that she could take the duplicate keys and go up into the rooms. Accord ing to Mrs. Higgins the young woman threw up her hands and exclaimed, 'Oh, I could not do that; l would not think or going up into that place alone"
 She then left the place hurrfedly.
 The picture of the young woman shows her to be rather pretty Jewess. Stanley eHlSeQ to tell WnO Sli6 iiC Suy iAS A' married, but declares that his wife Is living in California
 pr. A s. Dougherty of Ashly, Pa, a nephew of the priest said in speaking of the tragedy
 For some time past probably two years, Father Philips had suffered from muscular rheumatism and for the past six months his heart had given him con- siderable trouble. My theory Is that the strain resulted from those labor problems in which he had entered so actively, brought on a condition of nervous pros- tration and in this condition he weakened and thought that stimulants would hell him along. I suppose he met this mar Stanley and in the course of conversa dor mentioned that he was subject to rheu- matism. Stanley having an apparatus which he claimed would cure rheumatism, inducning Father Philips to submit to the treatment. Father Philips having very fatty heart, the treatment proved too se- were. I believe a physician in this con- dtion this treatment was enough to cause death, as I understand that the tempera- ture to which the patient was subjected was some times as high as four hundred degrees.
