Pearl H. Smith Loses Action
Against State Auditor Iver-
son for Iron Ore Land.

Washington, Dec. 1S.-In the case Of
Pearl H. Smith vs.. Auditor Iverson Of
the state of Minnesota, which was dis
missed by the supreme court of the
united States today, there was charge
Of fraud and conspiracy against some
of the minor officials Of the state.
The object Of controversy was a
small tract Of land in ST.. Louis county,
which is owned by the state, on which
is located the valuable iron mine
known as the Iron Silver. -s-.
Smith instituted the suit to secure
possession of the lease on the property,
which now stands in the name of Ma
bel Evans. He charged that the lease
to Evans had been made Immediately
after it was denied to him; that. the
lease was really in the interest Of
George A. Flynn and E. o. Patterson,
both clerks in the office of the state
auditor, and that Flynn is the clerk,
who after rejecting his lease, accepted
the application Of Evans.
The dismissal was announced by
Chief Justice Fuller and was based on
lack of jurisdiction. Tho effect is to
leave standing the decision of the
United States circuit court for the dis
trict of Minnesota, which was unfavor-
able to Smith,. \ = - - -

POISON IN BODIES /,
OF VzRAL CHILDREN
Arsenic Caused Death of Members
of Chicago Family-Seer
Under Arrest.

Chicago, Dec. 1S.-Poison was respon-
sible for the death of at least two OF
the Vrzal family, six of whom died
within few months of each other in
the past year. Herman Billik, a for
tune teller, is now in Jail on charge
of having administered poison to the
family so that the mother Of the dead
children could collect the insurance
money.
Mrs. Vrzal was found dead in her
an investigation into the cause of the
death of the other members Of the fam
lily was begun. At first it was believed
she committed suicide, but the police
are of the opinion that the same agency
that caused the death of the children
was also responsible for her death.
Arsenic in Bodies.
Positive evidence of the presence of
poison in the internal organs of Ella
and Mary, two of the daughters of Mrs.
Vrzal, whose bodies were exhumed last
week, has been discovered by Professor
Walter M. Haines of the Rush Medical
college and Dr.. Lewke of the coroner s
staff.
Arsenic was found in the liver and
stomach of both victims and it was
there in sufficient quantities to cause
death, according to the information
given Coroner Hoffman by the physi-
clans.
Coroner Hoffman says that the bodies
of the remainder Of the family will be
exhumed and an examination made fol-
traces of poison.

The trouble with most tonics and med
