MRS. DOXEY DENIES
THE KILLING OF ERDER
Woman Accused of Bigamy and
Murder in St. Louis Jail

ST. LOUIS, Dec. with Mrs. Dora
E. Doxey in the St Louis city jail under
the care of the Jail physician. .announce-
ment was made by the coroner late to-
day that the inquest into the death of
William ]. Erder will begin Monday.
The woman is accused of having
killed Erder by administering arsenic
in his food. Miss Kate Erder, sister of
the dead man, who collected the evi-
dence that moved the authorities TO
action, will be called to testify.
Mrs. DoXeys defense to the charges
of bigamy and murder was indicated
today It will be urged that the real
animus of the prosecution is the desire
of Miss Erder to recover $4,000 insur-
ance collected on Erders policies and
on the life of his sister, Elizabeth. who
died the day he became i'll last July;
that Mrs. Doxey was not married to
Erder, but only nursed him; that there
is no evidence that Mrs. DoXey OBJ
tanned arsenic while she was in St.
Louis or gave it to Erder, and that
scientists have said that a certain
amount of arsenic is found in every
corpse.
The states case as thus far revealed
is that Mrs. Doxey married Erder under
an assumed name; that she was at that
time in communication with Doctor
Doxey, of whom she spoke as her
cousin; that soon after marriage she
persuaded Erder to make her the bene-
ficiary of his insurance policies; that
Erder, until then in good health, went
into decline soon after the insurance
money was transferred and died after a
short Illness; that four days later Mrs.
DoXey collected the insurance and went
to Columbus, where she joined Doctor
Doxey; that a chemical analysis of
Erder's corpse revealed the presence of
large quantities of arsenic.
