MRS. CONRAD
AGAIN SUES
SALOON man

Laura Conrad of Seattle, who says
she is still the legal wife of Gus Con-
rad has once more taken up the
fight against the we'll known saloon
man.
Mrs. Conrad has brought an action
fora divorce and asks for a judgment
of the court declaring a certain al
legged decree obtained by Gus Con-
rad against her in September, 1902,
be set aside.
The parties to the action were
married in 1893 and removed to
Washington four years later and
finally settled in Seattle. While liv-
ing there. Mrs. Conrad claims her
husband deserted her
The records show that Conrad has
obtained a divorce. Mrs. Conrad says
she never had notice OF the suit and
that the affidavit showing service is
false.
Besides asking to cancel the old
decree Mrs. Conrad wants an abso-
lutte divorce with $500 attorneys fees
and $50 a month permanent alimony.
A restraining order enjoining Con-
rad from disposing or in any way
interfering with his property was
granted pending the trial of the case
which will come on to be heard
March 10.
Conrad was formerly one of the
proprietors of the Hub saloon on
Sprague avenue and has recently
opened the Pearl on Mill street.

HONOLULU. March 2.-The report
of the chemist removes the last doubt
of the cause of the death of Mrs.
Stanford. The analysis Of the con-
tents of a bottle Of carbonic soda
disclosed the presence Of a large
quantity of strychnine.
Acting upon the statement of Miss
Berner, her secretary, and May Hunt,
her maid, the bottle was brought
from her medicine chest in San Fran
cisco and remained unopened until
Tuesday night, when the fatal dose
was taken. This proves conclusively
that death was the result of a plot
formed in California over a month
ago.
The fact that poison was in the
soda which Mrs. Stanford was ac-
customed to take indicates that it
was put there by someone familiar
with her habits.
There is some talk Of suicide. It
deal since Christmas and poison was
ever in her mind. 1t is thought by
some that she wished to hasten the
end. She yearned. it is said. to leave
this life Of loneliness and Join her
husband and son, and talked much
Of spirit visitations. The suicide the
DRY, however, is utterly discredited
by friends.
A death mask was taken last night
and the body embalmed for shipment
to San Francisco.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-03-02

Is plain he is wrought up by the in
formation received last night of the
discovery of poison in the bicarbon-
ate of soda and of the fact that the
lungs of the dead woman betrayed
symptoms of death due to poisoning.
I'VE have formed no definite idea
in the matter at ALL said Mr.. Will
son, and 1t is plain we would not
be warranted in so doing until the
chemists report is filed. 1t is we'll
nigh unbelievable that anyone would
seek to injure Mrs. Stanford. We are
in momentary expectation of further
and more definite news and until 1t
arrives we have nothing to say"
The public opinion here Is inclined
to the theory of methodical poison
ing by Mrs. Stanfords attendants,
who are being investigated. That
Mrs. Stanford administered the poi
son herself is secuted by the police,
who point out that, while she was
woman of advanced years and lone
some, she was well and at all times
well balanced and not Of a tempera-
ment that would permit the contem-
plation of suicide.
When the reports of the Honolulu
chemists are received it is not I'M
likely the local authorities will order
certain arrests made or that various
persons be detained at least until the
present investigation is concluded.
Early this afternoon Wilson receiv-
ed a telegram from Honolulu stating
| that the chemists report on the ex-
I animation of the contents of the
stomach would not be ready until to-
morrow. The cablegram contained
no intimation of what the nature of
the report would be. Beyond this
brief message no word on the case
has been received from Honolulu.
