RUMORs REGARDING THE DEATH OF

She VIII Refute by Ordering
an Autopsy on the Body.

LONDON. April 1.-The Echo says It I'M
derstands that. having heard certain un-
pleasant rumors. Lady Cook. widow Of Sir
Francis Cook formerly Tennessee Clafiin),
has applied to the home secretary to have

els Cook died Feb. II. Friends of Lady
Cook say that false stories have been circu-
lated by a person not related 10 Sir Fran
els. but who was disappointed at not be-
ing remembered in the will. Lady Cook de-
sires that the exact cause Of her husbands
death, which was senile decay Che was
eighty-four years old at the time OF his
death), shall be officially certified, so that
hereafter. in the event of her death. moth
ing can be alleged against her. The rela-

Lady Cook, who is living in Kensington.
London, made the following statement this
evening: Since the death of my husband
there has come TO my knowledge a very
thoroughly laid plan. concocted before his
death, TO attack his reputation for the
purpose of blackmail. 1t was about
to be put into execution when he
died. Some parties TO the cOnspir-
acy expected to secure large amounts
OF money during his life. His sudden end
prevented a fulhllment of these hopes. The
conspiracy reached a elimination by the
circulation of rumOrs that Sir Francis
died an unnatural death, and owed his de-
mise To me- the conspiratcrs hoping in this
fashion to blackmail me. Had not been
a woman of worldwide reputation l could
have afforded to let these calumnies die.
My own health is extremely poor. Should
A die now these lies might go on forever. /
have therefore resolved to refute them now.

autopsy, IL necessary, III order that the
world may know how baSelesS these stories
are. Narrowing as ii is, | shall not finch.
My husband was beloved by me, and l by
him; and these iniquitous ISLANDERS shall be
stamped out II IL costs me all the courage
and wealth / have in the world. In this L
