TYPHOID BACILLI FOR MURDER.
Suspected Man is Known to Have
Bought Germs

So firmly convinced are the relatives
Of Thomas II. Swope of Kansas City,
hat the deaths of the multi-million-
aire philanthropist and his nephew.
Cnrisman Swope, did not occur from
natural causes that they have placed
The investigation into the cause of the
deaths in the hands of law firm with
instructions that all the millions of
The dead philanthropist be used If
necessary to get at the truth.
The assertion is made that both
Thomas Swope and his nephew were
poisoned and that the author of the
crime also inoculated the entire Swope
family, consisting of eight people, with
nate them. The bodies of the two
dead Swopes have been exhUmed and
their organs are being analysed. The
death of both Thomas and Chrisman
Swope by commissions after being TAX
ing a capsule and the subsequent Sc
rious illness of the entire Swope fam
lily with typhoid led to the investiSa-
ton.
Shortly before Chrisman Swopes
death, the man TO whom suspicion
points visited the Office of a we'll
known bacteriologist of Kansas City
and obtained some typhoid germs.
With these deadly bacilli those push
ing the matter believe he hoped to
inoculate the members of the Swope
family.
Il am buying these merely to do
some experimenting, he is said to
have told the bacteriologist. Chrisman
Swope became seriously i'll with ty-
phoid. When it was found he would
likely recover, and that the inocula-
ton of the typhus bacilli did not take
as was expected, he was given strych-
nine to make sure of death, accord
ing to the theory of those conducting
the investigation Since that time the
other seven members of the Swope
family have been taken down with ty-
Dhoid.
