ton. There is no doubt but that the

stances administered TO suggest that
possibly another administered the fatal
dose. However, these were set in an
other light after the investigation, but
the inquest viii be held for the purpose
of bringing out all the facts and set
ting doubts at rest.
An attempt has been made to at
tach suspicion TO Mr.. Anderson be-
cause he went about two blocks
to the place of Mr.. Ziegenhart,
done, and was very deliberate about
telling of the affair. II was also shown
that the couple had quarreled. Mr.. An
derson stated that he went to Mr..
Ziegenhart because he wanted him to
reason with his wife and quiet her an
ger, Ziegenhart having some influence
with her. He did not believe his wife
had taken the poison when she told
him she had. Neighbors understand
ing the slow, phlegmatic disposition of
Mr.. Anderson and his advanced age,
thought his actions quite characteristic
and do not believe he is guilty of ad-
miniStering the drug. The police evil
