SUMEp TONIGHT.

HAMILTON, Ont. March 19.-(Spe-
cial.) George Lynch Staunton. X. c..
Hamilton's able criminal lawyer. who
has been engaged by the Kinrade FAM
lily to look after their interests at the
inquest tonight, has stated that he is
prepared to show that q man was seen
leaving the Kinrade home on the al
ternoon OF the murder Of Ethel Kin
rade. He Is positive that both Mrs.
Kinrade and Florence will be cleared
Of any suspicion In connection with
the affair. In doing this. Mr.. Staunton
has a gigantic task ahead OF him, es-
pecially as the police are Arm In their
statements that the members OF the
family are implicated. and public opiu-
ion Is all In that direction.
Both Mrs. Kinrade and Florence
will be recalled to the stand. and there
IL no doubt that the session tonight
will prove the most interesting OF any
yet. as Mr.. Blackstock Is loaded up
with evidence and data OF the doings
OF the Kfnrade family on the fateful
afternoon and his facts are entirely
different to the statements that the
two women have made In the witness
box.
The inquest tonight will last we'll
into morning, and the general opinion
is that unless something tangible rs
drawn out OF the witnesses the MUIR
der will remain an unsolved mystery.
The police have completed one Of their
Investigations and are right in line
for a thorough examination tonight.
The police have been swamped with
letters signed by people confessing to
the crime. but no stock is placed in
them.
No less than IL different ones hav-
ing been received.
The entire city Is patiently waiting
for the inquest to open. and the de-
mand for admission is even greater
than at the opening session, the IN
terest being greater than ever.

SENDS oELieERAroRs BACK TO
RECONSIDER cooPERs' FATE IN
cARMAck MURDER CASE.

NASHVILLE. Tenn. March Ia
After 40 hours elaboration the jury
In the Carmack case this afternoon ~
Ported TO the court that II had Ar
rived at verdict in the case of John
u. Sharp. acquitting him OF completely
in the murder OF ex-senator Carmack,
but that it was in disagreement In re-
gard to the Coopers. The court &C.
cepted the Sharp verdict and sent the
jury back for further elaboration over
the fate of Col Duncan b. Cooper and
his son Robin. Belief in the courtroom
was that there was slight chance for
agreement and the prediction was
freely made that the trial, one OF the
hardest and most bitterly fought In the
history OF Tennessee, would have to be
re-enacted. While the interests OF
Sharp were closely bound up In those
OF the Coopers. 1t was around the lat
ter that interest conferred.
Attention this afternoon was divert
ed almost entirely from Sharp BY
speculation as to whether 1t ever Will
be possible to get together Q Jury
which shall unite on q verdict for Col.
Dune" Cooper, representing. as he
does. interests which extend into and
are powerfully potent In every phase
OF Tennessee public life.
