tinue to visit police headquarters and

said today that his brother had about $50
in bills in his pocket When he boarded the

he had not been able to ascertain. Investi
CATION was made by the police, and 1t was
recalled that at the time DIR. Harris body
was recovered his watch and chain, dia-
mind ring and the small change he had
were found intact.
The police feel certain that DR.. Harris
was not robbed II such had been the
case, they think, the watch and chain or
the diamond ring would have been taken.
1t Is possible. it Is added. that the money
dropped from the pocket of the physician
and that 1t may have been burned with
the debris.
Roy E. Latherman, residing at 1888 @
street. called upon the police to learn II
anything had been seen of hand bag lost
by his sister. Mrs. Mamie Proctor. The
satchel, he stated, contained a watch.
