Wife MURDER TRIAL
TO Be BEGUN TO-DAY
Cyrus NJ. Todd, Of Boone County
Accused of Killing His Wife
on Dec. 81 Last.
STORY OF THE TRAGEDY

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LEBANON, Ind, March 1.-The trial Of
Cyrus NJ. Todd, on the charge of murder
ing his nineteen-year-old wife. will begin
tomorrow morning. A special venire Of
forty jurors has been drawn. Todd has
been i'm Jail for several weeks and has
just recovered from a severe attack of
the measles, which he contracted on the
day of his arrest
The trial will attract much attention
owing to the prominence of the families,
and the circumstances surrounding the
death of Mrs. Todd. The tragedy occurred
on the afternoon Of Dec. 81. 1903, at the res
idence in Jackson township. According to
the story told by Todd. who was the only
witness of the shooting, he had been suf
fering with headache and concluding that
open air exercise might relieve him, took
his gun and went hunting. He returned
home about o'clock in the afternoon, hav-
ing obtained relief from the headache.
He placed the gun on the bed and sat
down on the edge of the bed with his face
In his hands. Mrs. Todd, he says, picked
up the gun. which was discharged and the
entire load entered her breast, causing al
most instant death.
There were certain circumstances which
aroused the suspicion of relatives of the
dead woman, who was a daughter of ex
County Commissioner James II. Mclean.
The weapon was of the safety kind, which
seemed TO preclude the idea of accidental
discharge 1t also developed that Todd's
wife had told her mother that threats had
been made against her by Todd. The cor
oner investigated, and while stating that
there were evidences of foul play. he de-
cided to give Todd the benefit of the doubt
and accordingly found that Mrs. Todds
death was accidental. The grand jury took
up the case and after a thorough examina-
tion returned an indictment, charging Todd
with murder in the first degree.
