Few Now Believe That the
Iowa Mans Wound Was
Self Inflicted
HIS WIFE HAS NOT BEEN FOUND
Dana is Improving Daily but Still Re-
fuses to Make Statement-interest-
ing Developments Are Likely to Fol-
Iow-Wife's First Husband is Sass
pected.

New York, Aug. 5.-A new feature
of the Central Park shooting mystery
that has been kept secret by young
Samuel L. Dana, of Fairfield, Iowa, and
the disappearance of his wife, Mrs.
Dignon-Dana, who proves to be the
divorced wife OF Seattle man. is what
happened in a cab ride that Dana and
his wife took on the night before the
man and q woman in another cab,
after Dana and his wife had q quar-
rel at her hotel about the attentions
she was receiving from an elderly man.
1t developed yesterday that one OF
Danas rivals wrote to the woman's
first husband that his wife was mar
ried again, and that the shooting oc-
CURED right after Dana had received
a letter from the Seattle husband, stat
ing that he was coming east. Dana is
now rapidly recovering.
That Dana shot himself, few now
believe. That in proclaiming his wound
self-inf1icted he acted to prevent the
dragging Of certain young woman's
name before the public in q police in
vestigation Is now the generally ac-
cepted view, but beyond that the most
searching inquiry has failed to pene-
trate.
What hope the police had OF obtain
ing the solution OF the mystery thru
pretty Mrs. Beatrice W. Dignon. the
young Philadelphia widow, who is now
known to be Dana's wife. has been de-
stroyed by her complete disappearance.
Behind the known facts. there un-
doubtedly is romance, the details OF
which, it is believed, are SO sacred to
Dana, that he prefers TO bear the ig-
nominy of attempted self destruction,
IL he lives, or to carry his secret with
him to the grave, IL his wound proves
fatal, rather than expose to pun
inshment the mysterious companion
whose bullet laid him low.
That Mrs. Dignon not only did not
want to be annoyed by the case, but
acted SO that she would be certain to
avoid annoyance. is shown by by the
fact that she did not call on her hus-
band at the hospital. although she
knew he was probably mortally wound
ed. but, instead. left the Martha Wash
ington hotel, where she had been living
on Sunday, without leaving any adj
dress.
A sidelight on the peculiar situation
Is contained in the fact that box of
flowers was left at the Martha Wash
ing hotel for Mrs. Dana on Monday
night.
Lawyer Cunningham said yesterday:
Il have only to say that do not be-
lieve that Mr.. Dana shot himself.
He refused to give any reasons for
his statement or to make any further
comment on the case.

BAD FOR. WHEELER
Evidence Against the Suspect in tho
Acid Throwing Case at cIarksviIle is
Very Damasins-sensationai De~el-
opments Are Promised by the Police.

Special to Times Republican.
Allison, Aug. 5.-Hugh Wheeler, ac-
cused Of having throw the I've in the
face of Mrs. Parnie Ramsey near
Clarksville last Saturday night. was
aggaigned before Justice Ilgenfritz and
a continuance in the case taken until
next Tuesday.
Wheeler's bonds were placed at
$1,000, and as yet he has been unable to
secure his liberty.
The county authorities are more
than confident that Wheeler is their
man and for the first time since his
arrest as a suspect have consented
to give out some authentic information.
The evidence collected thus far is dam
aging to Wheeler in the extreme.
The officers first made thorough
examination of the scene of the das-
tardly assault near Clarksville. There
a piece of cloth was found, which when
matched with n shirt worn by Wheel
er fitted a hole perfectly and was OF
the same pattern. The cloth was dis
colored and wrapped to be used as a
stopper for the milk bottle In which
the assailant carried the I've.
In wheeler's room the officers dis
covered a can OF lye and a discolored
stick, which bore evidence of having
been used to stir the liquid before
employing a portion into the milk bot
tie.
Shoes Fit in Tracks.
A pair OF shoes bearing spots OF
discoloration, as tho caused by
contact with I've, were also discovered
in the room, and when tried In tracks
in a potato patch near the Ramsey
home fitted perfectly. A coat which
was torn with fine holes in several
places was found. and as Mrs. Ram
sey's assailant was known to have
crawled thru a barbed wire fence in
reaching her home, the coat gives evil
dence of having been worn by the same
person.
On the coat we're a number OF white
horsehairs, and the statement OF a
neighbor that white horse, attached
to a single buggy was seen near the
Ramsey home on the night of the as
sault strengthens the theory that 1t
was Wheeler.
Other Arrests to be Made.
with this evidence in their possess
sion the authorities are reasonably
confident that they have secured the
right trail. They stated today that
the affair will shortly develop into
a big sensation, as other arrests are
to be made In connection with Wheel
er's incarceration. The identity OF
these suspects is unknown outside OF
official circles.
Best Legal Talent.
