BAFFLED By MURDER.
Nep-HaUen Tragedy StIta Mystery
to authorities.
by Telegraph to The Tribune. ]


New-Haven, Conn. Jan. 7.-Coronef Mix held
several sessions the Edwards murder case
to-day, but new developments were re-
ported. The only important new move was the
renewed interest taken in Charles A. Hitler by
the Coroner's Office. He has had full liberty
since Thursday but to-day he was accompa-
MED by a detective and. though free to leave
his house. was never alone
Coroner Mix spent an hour at the College-st
Hitler house this afternoon, and this evening
was again with Charles Hitler at his office
Coroner Mix said tonight that his report
would probably be ready tomorrow. 1t is be-
neved this report will say that Charles Edwards
came to his death at the hands of a person I'M
known
While the Coronerss office has been exceeding
~ silent some of those the inside say that
all of the evidence thus far obtained has peen
along parallel lines that have never met one OF
these is the evidence Of trouble in the Hitler
family over the settlement of the estate and
includes the had relations reported between A.
afaxcy Hitler and Charles Edwards. the threats
alleged TO have been made against both Mr.. and
Mrs Edwards by Hitler. and the report that
yapers damaging TO the case of A MaXcy Hitler
were In the possession Of Mr.. Edwards.
The other line concerns itself with the actual
murder. the Cdot of blood the dead mans
fsnstep the tobacco in a bowl near the bed, ana
other details. 1t is understood that the Soro-
nsr's office up to tonight had been unable TO
connect these two lines. and that no conclusive
evidence exists as to the actual identity OF the
murderer.
regarding the case. but none of them could pc
officially corroborated. It was stated that q pc
Siestrian has come forward with the information
that he saw a man walking hurrfedly aWsy
from the Hitler house on College-st- at 80
e m the morning Of the murder. IN the olreeo
zion of Grove toward Ternple-st.. and that he
was slight of frame and excited NO ofncleI
confirmation of this could be obtained
Renorts of the finding Of morphine IN the
BODY Of Mr. Edwards are denied by physicians
who have been the case. The case was
again tonight practically at standstlll, and II
ss regarded by all the officials concerned as the
most perplexing mystery that has ever come 10
the knowledge of the New-HaTen authorities.
The police regard the motive as possibly
found but say that absolutely nothing has yet
been discovered that could connect any one with
the crime. The belief of the detective depart
.3nent tonight was that in day or two the
evidence would be all in and no decision reached.

A VERY SAD DEATH.

Miss Ruth Hood, daughter of
Mrs A. Ferguson of this city and
Luke Hood of Kiowa, whose criti-
cal illness was told in the Index,
died at 3 o'clock, A. NJ, Wednesday,
December 12th. The cause of death
was peritonitis caused by a cold
contracted by being exposed to the
snow while playing with her
schoolmates. From the first in
ception of her sickness her case was
pronounced serious and as time
went on her suffering became more
intense and for a week prior to her
death it was evident that recovery
was almost impossible.
Owing TO the illness of the moth
er, only a short service was held at
the home in this city, and the father
took the body to Kiowe. for inter
ment. The funeral was conducted
at that place by Rev c. A. Kitch.
AS mark of respect her school
mates escorted the body to the de-
pot, the room of which she was a
member being dismissed by her
teacher, Miss Smart.
Ruth was one of the bright Miss
es of Medicine Lodge. She was
just passing the age of childhood
into a sphere Of usefulness when
that monster who lies in wait for
us all took her away from her par
ents, sisters, brothers and school
mates who loved her because of
the love she bore to others and be-
cause of her ever cheerful DISPOSE
ton, her faithfulness in the home
and her ever ready response to the
call of duty.
Our hearts go out to those who
mourn the sudden departure of this
precious gem from their home.
The following lines were con-
tributed by a friend:
Ruth Hood, daughter of Mrs. A.
Ferguson, was born in Schuyler
county, Illinois, July 2, 1892, and
died in Medicine Lodge, Kansas,
Dec. II, 1906, aged ID years, S
months, 10 days.
Blessed are the pure in heart for
they shall see God.
darling one from US is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
place is vacant In our home,
That never can be filed.

A.FINE FARM AND HOME.

Contractor F. R. Hayes complet
ed big contract at D. w. Stones
farm in Mingona township last
week. The contract consisted OF
remodeling the house, building a
barn 32x6o, three poultry houses
and other convenient out buildings.
These Improvements are all first
class. The barn is equipped with
cement floor, hay fork and other
modern conveniences that the
farmer of today needs. Besides re-
modelling the entire house, two fine
Porches have been added and allthe
buildings have been artistically
painted, making the entire far m
an ideal one.
Mr.. Stones ranch comprises. 1900
acres. His Improvements have cost
him over $4,000, but they will bring
good returns on the money invest
ed. He bought this farm about
three or four years ago and could
more than double the cost of land
and Improvements any time he de-
sires, Dan can easily lay claim to
one of the best and most substanti-
ally improved farms in the county.

their praise of theatrical companies
on account of courtesies usually
extended to the press, but too much
could not be said for the Metropol-

ed here last week, regardless of
what the personal feelings of the
publishers might be. Their fea-
ture bill, Camille" played on
Friday night was a presentation
that rarely is equaled in small
towns. The scenery and costumes
displayed were equal to many and
superior to some seen in the theaters
OF such cities as Kansas City and
St. Louis and with a stage of bet
ter facilities and dimensions, the
play would have compared very
favorable with the best in the large
cities. It will probably be some
time before this city is favored
with another company with so
many finished artists and such
elaborate stage material

A. S. Gulley, who until recently
owned the Stewart ranch east of
this city, is preparing to move
with his family to Phoenix, Arizo-
ma. He has purchased a small al
falfa farm in the irrigation belt
there, of sixty-two acres, paying
SIG per acre. This year the farm
yielded 5000 tons of alfalfa and it
sells there for $Io per ton, thus it
will be seen that while land there
is high the returns are in proper
ton and the investment is not bad.
Mr.. Gulley says he would not have
decided to leave here but for the
poor health of one of his boys. His
son is troubled with weak lungs
and the physicians advise lighter
climate. Mr.. Gulley made money
in Barber county and we would
have liked to have seen him remain
but after all health is always the
first consideration.
