JURY'S
VERDICT AS
SUICIDE

lle cor0nerss jury IN the case OF
the death of Clara Bigelow, who
was found with bullet wound in her
left breast at her home in Broad
Oaks about 1-o'clock Monday morn
ing, came to the conclusion after
examining several witnesses that the
wound was self-inficted.
The only witnesses that could
throw any light on the tragedy were
the husband and the despoiler Of the
home, Steve Matthews. The latter
was examined first and told Of how
he was sitting in a chair when a
knock came at the door and how
Mrs. Bigelow jumped up and turn
ed out the gas fire, the oil lamp
having been extinguished for some
time.
She opened the door and her hus-
banw, striking a match, entered. He
said $50 I've caught you, you dirty
sneaking wench." Witness stated
that the husband turned to him and
said, Il don't blame you, Steve, for
you couldn't, have got in here un-
less she let YOU" Then he turned
to his wife and struck her twice, say
ing. "This ends it between you and
me-" She then said, 'I'll end it,
and passing behind the witness, went
in the direction of the bed. Wit
ness heard a shot and turning, saw
her fall on the bed and the revolver
on the floor.
Tteve then related how he picked
up the revolver and laid 1t on a
chair. When asked by Foreman
Boughner who fired the shot in his
opinion he said he could not say.
The wonged husband was the
most interesting witness. He said
he and the deceased woman we're
married at Danville, Va, in Novem-
ber. 1908, and that he had been in
Clarksburg about one year. On a
previous Sunday night friend had
come to him and informed him that
his wife was keeping company with
a man late on Sunday nights when
he was at his work. He got man
10 work in his place Sunday night
and listening heard sounds that
seemed like a bed rattIing. Then
he knocked few times on the door.
His wife finally opened the door and
he struck a match and saw Matthews
lstanding there.
His evidence here slightly differ
ed from that given by Matthews. He
told that lie saw Matthews standing
on the floor with his coat, top shirt
land shoes off, while his wife had a
nightgown on. After calling her
attention to the fact that he had
caught her he asked, Sought to kill
you?" He says that she replied, II
wish YOU would She then walked
past him and 10 the bed where she
reached under the pillow for the re-
1yolver. Before he{could get to her
she had grasped the weapon with
both hands and fired the fatal shot.
Witness said he turned to Matthews
with the words, "Now, Steve, YOU
see it; you're the cause of it all.
You are responsible for it, now take
care Of her"
He then came to town and awak-
cned his wife's employer and inform
ed him of the affair: He accomp-
anied this gentleman and the officers
back to the scene. The Jury did mot
deliberate a moment after the evil
dence was all in and returned YER
dict of suicide.

NEW THIEVING

COUPLE OF KOREANS AND PORTO
RICAN JAILBIRDS THOUGHT TO
BE COMMITTING ROBBERIES.

A new combination in the thieving
line is at work about the city. With
in the last few weeks a much larger
number of thefts than usual has been
reported to the police. 1t was at first
supposed that there We're a number Of
robbers at work but the police are now
satisfied that the thefts, many of them
burglaries, were committed by two men
Porto Rican and a Korean.
Both of the suspected men are we'll
known to the authorities. In fact
both have served terms in Jail and
were released only recently. The rob-
berry of the Japanese consulate the
other day is charged to them. Two men
answering the description of the two
suspected men were seen coming from
the rear of the consulate residence dur
ing the afternoon before the robbery.
The consul supposed them to be milk
men or some other persons who had
had occasion to deliver goods to the
consulate.
