testimony when sworn.
The furnace in PennelPs house is
being examined this afternoon, as it
is known he dismissed the furnace
man the morning of the murder, say
ing he would attend to the fire him
self that day.
The police are evidently working
on the theory that Pennell may have
committed the murder and destroyed
the goli stick or other weapon and
bloody garments in the fire.
This afternoon District Attorney
Coatsworth announced that a letter
had been found in the Burdick house
which was written to Mrs. Burdick
by Pennell, in which Pennell said:
II feel that I must kill Burdck."
Coatsworth added he has evidence
that Pennell went to Niagara Falls
the morning Burdick's body was
found and sent the instrument with
which the killing was done over the
cataract. 1t is generally believed the
case is near a solution.

District Attorney Causes Delay of Five
Days and Makes Statement That
y duplicates Pencil

BUFFALO, March 1s.-The Bur-
dick inquest continuance was post
poned until Monday afternoon, as the
district attorney is so hoarse from
the constant use OF his voice yester-
day that he is unable to speak today.
1t was reported at noon that the
district attorneys hoarseness is not
sufficient to incapacitate him for FIVE
days. hence there are other reasons
for the lengthy delay. When pressed
for statement the district attorney
practically admitted such was the
case.
He said: I'VE have CLEANED facts
we never knew before since the in
quest began" but what they are he
refuses to say. 1t is believed the
police will administer the third de-
gree to some witnesses between now
and Monday on the theory that facts
known to them were held back on
the stand.
