MONTGOMERY CASE
STILL A MYSTERY.
JuryHas Adjourned
Its Sessions Until
Monday
DOCTORS OPINIONS CONFLICT
Postoffice Authorities at
Washington Order Deli
very of Dead Girls Mail

After hearing evidence all day Fri
day the coroner's jury adjourned until
Monday Part of the dead girls wear
ing apparel was turned over to DR..
j. A. Massie who will make mlcros-
,copic examination seeking to estab-
lish new evidence that will tend to
clear up matters The portion OF
the girls neck which was pierced by
the bullet was produced in court and
carefully examined through a strong
lense. No powder marks are discern
able but the two physicians present
widely disagree as to whether or not
Q shot could have been fired by the
girl herself without inficting powder
burns. 1t is the intention of the jury
TO call in other doctors and secure
their opinions. The jury so far has
taken up every point with extreme
care and will continue to do so until
everything has been gone over thor
oughly Time appears to be no OBJ
iect to the members of the jury who
a"e displaying remarkable civic pride
by sacrificing their own interests in
order to do what they consider to be
their duty. That the case will be
carefully and properly handled is no
longer doubted by any one.
Still Very Mysterious.
With all the evidence so far pro-
duced, taken into consideration, the
public is widely divided as to a solu-
ton of the matter. The tragic act
seems as great mystery to many as
ever. The hot blood that was evident
at times during the week, between
some of the adherents of the suicide
theory and those who advocated the
murder theory appears to have cool
ed off and every one is content
to await the decision of the coroner's
jury.
