parent-Body Will Be Brought to
This City This Evening.

The exact cause OF the death OF JOS
eph Eich, the well known hotel cook,
OF this city. who died suddenly at
Grinnell, Thursday, at about noon, may
never be known. jury, empaneled by
Coroner Talbot, held an inquest
Thursday afternoon, and returned a
verdict to the effect that the cause of
death was unknown. A post mortem
examination revealed the fact that the
mans liver was abnor1nally large, but
the other organs were apparently in a
normal condition. There were no in
dications, as far as could be observed
without an analysis, that the man had
died from either alcoholic or other poi
soning.
In Grinnell rumor became apparent
that Eich had suicided by taking chlor-
cform, but those conversant with the
facts do not believe such was the case
A small bottle containing chloroform
was found In Eich's room, but cham
hermaid in the hotel states that there
was as much in the bottle Thursday
after the body was found. as there had
been on the previous day, when she
looked after the mans room. 1t is
possible, OF course. that Mr.. Eichs
death was duo to some organic trouble,
and yet II was the opinion OF the phys
lcians conducting the post mortem, that
apoplexy, surmised as possible cause
was not responsible. Eich Is known to
have taken a quart bottle OF whisky
with him to Grinnell. but he had not
been drinking up to between and 10
o'clock the night before he died. a
search has been made for the bottle,
but 1t can not be found. IT 1t can be
located. and any of the contents have
been used, an analysis of the liquor will
be made, to ascertain IL it could. in
some way, have been drugged

man, went to Grinnell this morning and
