ton Of Accident or Design.
Chicago, July 3O.-The coroner's
jury impanelled to inquire into the
death of Ira G. Rawn, late president
of the Monon railroad, returned an
open verdict, but found that he died
from a shot fired from his ownweapon
by his own hand. The verdict is as
follows: .
"We, the jurors sworn on oath to
inquire into the death of Ira G.. Rawn
at his home in Winnetka on July 20,
find that he came to his death at 1:2O
o'clock on the morning of July 20
from shock and hemorrhage caused
by bullet from his own revolver,
fired by his own hand, but whether
this was accidental or with suicidal
intent this jury cannot determine, ex-
cept that the location of the wound
and the type of revolver render the
accident theory less probable"
The verdict was so Worded as to
show that Mr.. Rawn was believed by
the jurors to have been responsible
for his own death, but the question of
suicide or accident was left to be
fought out by the family and the in
surance companies. It took several
hours elaboration to reach a finding.
One of the chief points involved in
the long discussion was how to word
the document in such manner as not
to deprive Rawn's family of any legal
| rights the members might have under
the $4,000 of accident insurance poll.
| cies left by him. ..-.-
Representatives of the Illinois Cen.
trail road declined to testify and put
the refusal on the ground that to give
information would imperil pending
litigation. -
