she has made no mistake. She will

II It IL that Of kilbre, steps will be
taken to notify a sister Of the dead
man, Mrs. Katherine Driver. who
lives al la Russell street, Baltimore.
Nd.
Bit by bit the mystery surrounding
the mans death II being cleared. A
new phase In the case was made
known this morning. however. when
Policeman G. p. Smith announced
that he had clue to the identity OF
n man wearing q StFeW HAl. VINO WA
seen running away from the doorway
In which the body Of the suicide was
found. This man and the dead man
were seen walking UP Seventeenth
street less than an hour before kilhre
ended his life. Later the man In the
straw hat was seen standing in a
doorway. He fed when a policeman
approached. and the latter going TO
the doorway. stumbled over the body
OF Kilbre.
Coroner Taylor declared Friday
morning that the suicide purchased
his carbolic acid at Bodeker's drug
store on Main street. He told the
druggist that he wanted the poison
for his mother and made several
Take" inquiries as to how to use it.
He rendered 81 bill In payment for
an ounce OF the acid and received 30
cents in change. No money was
found in his pockets when his body
was picked UP. and It ID believed by
the police that he spent this change
in company with the man In the straw
hat.
The police are convinced that this
mysterious latter person saw the sui
eide drink the poison. They also think
that he may be able to account for a
fresh stab wound In the left hand OF
the dead man.
