Rice Death. Grows
More Mysterious,

Cleveland, Aug. ,10.-Every theory in re-
gard to the murder of william L.. Rice,
the millionaire attorney. whose body,
shot. dubbed and slashed, was found in
the. roadway near his home on Friday
night. has been upset by the testimony
offered today at the coroner's inquest.
The first sensation was when George
Freeman, a gun expert, testified that the
bullet taken from the dead mans head
did not come from a 32-calibre revolver,
as had been supposed. but belonged to
either Winchester rife or Russian
galley gun. The bullet weighed lis grains
and, according to Mr.. Freeman, could not
belong to a revolver of any make known
In this country.
A little later in his examination Mr..
Freeman said that Mr. Rice must have
been shot while the murderer was stand
Ing some distance from him. According
to the expert IL the bullet had been fired
at short range it could not fail to have
passed clear through the skull instead
of simply lodging in 1t as it did do. n
The testimony complicated still further
the my stery of Mr.. Rice's death.
