WOMAN AND NIECE.

ginia Wardlav, one of the mysterious
sisters under indictment for the mlrr-
der of Mrs. Ocey W. M. Snead, the
East Orange bath tub victim, died in
the house of detention here yesterday
afternoon. Death was due, in the
opinion of physicians, to starvation.
The fate of the aged woman in this
respect PARALLEL that Of her alleged
victim, for doctors who examined Ocey
Snead before her death said her all
ments were all due to lack of nourish-
ing food.
In the opinion of Jail attendants Miss
Wardlaw deliberately starved herself
to death. This has revived rumors
circulated at the time of Ccey Snead' S
death, when the history of the mys-
terious household was under investi-
CATION, that a suicide pact existed be-
tween Miss Wardlaw and her niece.
For several weeks the woman's con-
dition had been growing worse and

cell she had occupied was found a
quantity of stale food which the priso-
ner had concealed
What effect Virginia Wardlaw's
death will have on the fate Of her sis
ters is still to be determined. She
was the dominating influence of the
strange household and predictions are
made that Mrs. Caroline B. Martin and
Mrs. Mary w. Snead may never be
brought to trial. The sisters were in
