HOLDS TO SUICIDE,
Coroner Mix Reports Officially on O. A. Edwards Death.
BRAIN, HEART AND KIDNEYS DISEASEG
Autopsy Disclosed Wound Not Neces- sarily Fatal and Not Immediately
 isablfng-Dr. Metcalf Said

Apoplexy.
 NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. 1S-Coro, ner Eli Mix has filed with the state at' torney a vOluminous report on the death of Charles A. Edwards. The cor, oner reaffirms his previously expressed opinion that Edwards committed sui eide.
 Coroner Mix says that from examina. ton of the interior of the house, the width of the stairway, which is mar. row, and the blood stains also found thereupon and considering all the tes- tlmony taken at the inquest, together with the report of the autopsy and of the chemical analysis, he is of the Spin- ion that Edwards committed spicide. He says:
 "Mr. Edwards stayed at the Hitler house that evening and was in the com pany of Charles X. Hitler. He com plained of being very tired and not feeling at all well and that he had rheumatic pains in his legs and that the pain was very severe and that his rheumatism made him quite lame; that he had pain in his chest about the re. zion of his heart; that he was afraid he would die of apoplexy; that he was afraid he had kidney trouble, and that he feared he might have Bright's dis ease or diabetes.
 ''The autopsy disclosed that there was a bullet wound in the left ear that the bullet had not entered the brain; that the skull was not fractur ed; that the brain indicated diseased condition of the blood vessels at the base of the brain; that the heart indi cated one form of disease of the heart that the kidneys indicated chronic kid ney disease; that the bullet wound could have been self inflicted that such a wound would not bleed very freely and not necessarily more blood would flow from such a wound than the amount of blood found on the handkerchief, towel, body, stairs and clothing; that with such a wound il was quite possible for person tt walk the distance from the back base ment stairs to Mir. Edwards room where his body was found"
 Coroner Mix also reported the threats made by A. Maxcy Hitler against Ed | wards and his own sister.
 1 The coroner said that Charles Hillel thought from his first observance o1 Edwards, who at that time was no dead. that he had had a stroke of apo plexy. Dr. Metcalf found traces o blood, but judged the cause of deatf was apoplexy. Coroner Mix completely exonerate' A. Maxcy Hitler and his brother | Charles A. Hitler from having any con nection with the death of Mir. Edwards the testimony of Mrs. Maxcy lille proving beyond question that her bus band was not out of the house on tn ] night of Edwards death, af; .srl, ;.5 !, | As State Attorney Williams accept and fully agrees with the coroner finding, it is believed that this mos interesting case is now closed.

NOW FOR HOME RULE
Irish Nationalists Rejoice Over
 British Elections.
LEADERS MESSAGE TO AMERICA.
John E. Redmond, Chief of Parlia- mentary Party. Cables That Re- suits Are Full of Hope
 For Erin.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-John E. Red mond, leader of the Irish Parliamen- tary party in the British house of com mons, and T. P. O'Connor. NJ. F., ca .bled for their views on the prospects of home rule, judging from the results of the British elections to date, have sent the following replies. John E. Redmond cabled:
 "The result of the elections so far Is full of hope for Ireland. All the lead ing antihome rulers and coercionists are defeated. The overwhelming ma jority of the Liberals returned are friends of Ireland. The great increase of labor members is most valuable to us. All of them are stanch home rul- CTS and have been returned by the Irish vote in Great Britain. Irish votes also defeated Balfour and Long. We are most grateful for the sympathy and aid of all our friends in America" :"
 MT. O'Connor's reply said:
 We have profound belief and hope that the results of the elections mean the beginning of the end of the Irish struggle for liberty. A good adminis- tration can without legislation restore 4,000 evicted tenants to their homes and farms, and with noncontentiOus legislation it can solve the congested districts problem in two or three years. The big Liberal majority can give Ire land good measure of self govern ment in spite of the house of lords"

 After sn engagement of reasonable length Marshall Field came to Mount Vernon Furnace to claim his bride. He arrived the day before that set for the wedding.
