Thomas r. Boyle. of Sharon. Pa, a

arrived in Cleveland today. He asked
permission to see the woman detained
at the central police station, and said
he might be able to throw some light
on her identity.

Strong Evidence.
So strong is the chain Of evidence
about the man and woman that the pO-

II was learned today that Marie Del
mer, the woman who died last evening
on the way to hospital, had been ar
rested during the afternoon in connec-
tion with the kidnapping case. Her
death was due to morphine poisoning
and the police believe she committed
suicide in fear of the disgrace They
say they only wanted her as witness,
since she had been seen talking with
Boyle and his wife in saloon they
had frequented for several days. The
Dener woman was about fifty years
old.

ments against James Boyle and wife.

this on the extradition movement is

MADE A FINE RECORD
Action Taken by the Police
Board Last Evening Was a
Distinct Surprise-No 9th

When the new board of police com.
was in session last even
ing, it failed to reappoint William
Yingling as member of the force His
resignation was accepted and Frank
Remmert was appointed to the posi-
tion. This action on the part of the
board was a distinct surprise. All
other members of the force were given
their old positions back. The board
had no explanation to make for its
action, saying only it felt justified.
William Lammert was named as spe-
cial officer. He will be used as util-
ity man to take the place of men alb
sent from duty for any cause.
Made Good Record.
Yingling had been on the force for
about two years. During that time
he had made good record and gener-
ally was considered a. very efficient Of
ficer. He has been patro,ing the
sou.h side Of Main street under the
competent. The commissioners claim
to have made an Investigation Of each
man, and as the result of It, 1t was de-
cided to drop Yingling.
Rernmert is twenty-seven years old
and formerly was employed as . black
smith. He has been trying to get or
