body is being examined by Professor john
H Larkin for traces of poison, and made
the Identification Before going there he
had described Callers teeth to the police.
saving that two of the back teeth had
platinum filings, and on reaching the col
lege he pointed out the filings to the police,
who had previously overlooked them
There was the Identification also of a
scapular found in the trunk with the body
which had been given to the dead man by
Mrs. Kenny, with whom he boarded Mrs
Kenny said that Caller was Roman
Catholic, but that he had not been a regu-
lar attendant at mass for some time when
he came 10 live with her, in 1900 She said
that she persuaded him to go to church
again and gave him the scapular.
In telling about his relations with Caller
the doctor said he had known and treated
him for several years, and had frequent
letters from him. The last letter, he said,
was dated May Z, 1902, and said that CAL
uer was living at No. 140 West SD street
with his friend, William Lewis. The
Frenchman told the doctor that he was not
well and expected TO have more treatment
soon.
4 short time afterward, the doctor said.
Lewis came to see him, and said Caller
had gone back 10 France. Caller had left
TWO pictures with the doctor to be taken
care of, and Lewis said that Caller had
asked him to get the pictures and send
them to him in France. The doctor gave
the pictures TO Lewis and. as he was to
start on his round OF visits asked Lewis
to go with him in mis- carriage and talk
about Caller.
7ad he 50
he missed his pocketbook, containing sew
eraI dollars and check for a small
amount. The check was returned later by
mail. and the doctor said he had always
thought Lewis had picked his pocket
Commissioner Flynn believes that Caller
was poisoned by Lewis. He said yesterday
that Professor Larkin and Coroner's Physi-
clan Leblanc had found no marks or scars
of any kind on the bones to indicate that
Caller had been killed by bullet or a
knife He thought poison had been used,
and that Caller was suffering from the
effects of the poison when he wrote to the
doctor in May. 1902. He said that the re-
suits of the chemical examination for
poison would not be known for about two
weeks. but the police were assuming that
poison caused death.
From Mr. Rogers the motive for the crime
was definitely established as robbery. Mr..
Rogers had thought a good deal of Caller
and had looked after the young Frenchman's
affairs. His records showed that about the
time Caller left the employ Of Mr.. Rogers
he had received from France a sum ap-
proximating $1,000 francs, which was the
last instalment of Callers Inheritance
from his fathers estate
From Callers relatives in Dampierre, in
the Department of Jura, France. it was
learned that he had inherited about 100, 900
francs before he came to this country, and
that this m oney had been lost in a busi-
ness venture il Manchester. England.
Callers aunt said the dead man was born
in Ranchot, in the Department of Jura, in
1861 His father was a wealthy manufact-
,1rer. and Caller had several brothers and
sisters. Callers father and mother died
in the ea-ly COS and Caller then received
10000 francs of his Inheritance. 1t was
after the final sum of 60.Go0 francs was
paid that Caller was murdered by Lewis,
as the police now think.
The identity of the dead man having been
established and the police being satisfied
that the murder was committed by Lewis.
the District Attorneys Office will now pro-
coed to the indictment of the missing
waiter There are between fifty and sixty
witnesses TO be examined in the prepara-
ton OF the case, and Assistant District At
torney Rubin was busy yesterday examin-
ing some Of the police witnesses. Acting
Captain Clark and Detective Lieutenant
Mckinney were with Mr.. Rubin for nearly
three hours yesterday afternoon
The preparation of the case will probably
take q week and when that is done the
corouer'c inquest and the indictment OF
Lewis will probably take place on the same
day.
