Wheeling, W. Va, Jan. 13.-Miss Alma Evans, professional nurse, who attended John 0. Schenk, wealthy hacker. was the first witness called by the state on the fourth day of Mrs. Schenk's trial on a charge of giving him poison.
 Miss Evans said she was called to tho shenk home october Is. Mrs. scheul was in bed.
 "DiI Mrs. Schenk aid you in any way that first night?" the prosecutor asked.
 Consuts a Fortune Teller.
 "sh8 did not" was the prompt an- swer. The next five days, witness said, the sick packers condition showed no decided change. On the evening of the fourth day, Miss Evans said, Mrs. schenk told her she had visited a fortune teller on Belle Isle.
 "Had they fixed any limit for John?7 the prosecutor asked.
 "Sbe said they told her he couldn't las, until Christmas" witness said.
 Don't that make you feel terrible ?' witness said she asked Mrs. Sehenk, who replied. No; would rather know"

 Mrs. Schenk carried an armful of law books and clutched her notebook when she stepped into the room. The rain had kept away many fashionably gowned women, but the court room was filled to it's capacity neverthe- less
 Witness a Mystery.
 Ever since her name first became public the mystery about Miss Evans has deepened. No one save the pros ecutor, apparently. knew where she came from, what her first name is, and whether her real name Is Evans. That she nursed MT. Schenk and that she knew sensational developments of the alleged attempt at murder was all that has been allowed to reach the public concerning her. For this reason she became known as "the woman of mystery" and the crowd in the court room was more attentive than usual when she took the stand.

PRoPRIETOR'S THROAT CUT, FOL. LOWING ARGUMENT WITH
 FOUR MALE VISITORS.
MYSTERIOUS BABY IN CASE
woman Boomer Hears Talk About Adoption Papers and Then Finds Body-Cripple's Wife Went
 Away Unexpectedly.

Hartford, Conn.,, Jan. 13.-Strange and mysterious circumstances surround the finding of the body of Robert Wesley, middle-aged,. proprietor of a small hotel here, in one of the rooms of the hotel, with his throat cut
 A two-months-old baby-a girl suddenly appeared in the hotel a month ago. No account of it's coming was given to the twelve or fourteen lodgers in the place, near the busi- ness center of the city, known as the Wesley house.
 Neither the one-armed and one legged proprietor nor his pretty and much younger French-Canadian wife ever explained anything in connec- ton with the coming of the baby, al- though some of the lodgers thought it had been legally adopted.
 Young Wife Goes Away.
 Next the pretty young wife of Wes- ley disappeared. It was thought that she had gone to some part of the province of Quebec. Within the last day or two Wesley had seemed to be intensely nervous, says Mrs. Arthur Sisson, who, with her husband, clerk, lives in the hotel
 Mrs, Sisson has an impression that Wesley had trouble with his wife be- fore she left, about two weeks ago. Mrs. Sisson told the police that Wes- ley had telegraphed she thought to his wife to several points in Quebec in the last two days. And when he got no reply he seemed intensely de- pressed.
 Wesley was alone in his little of fee on the second floor of he three story building, the ground floor of which is devoted to stores, when four men came to see him. Mrs. Sisson, from her room on the same floor, caught glimpses of them. She told the police later that Wesley seemed startled at their coming, and yet not surprised He led them to his own bedroom at the end of a long hall way on the second floor, stumping along to it on his crutch.
 Mrs. Sisson could distinguish noth- ing except when one of the men raised his voice But from what she heard she made out that one of the men was named Du Pris. She also thought that he was the father of the baby, which was in a room next to that of the hotel proprietor
 Woman Hears Quarrel.
 Suddenly as she listened, she heard one mans voice upraised.
 You must give up that baby 1t said.
 Then there was more talking about a paper and the words adoption and adoption papers were used, Mrs. Sisson gathered that they were looking at some papers that had to do with an adoption.
 Then the voices subsided and then died away altogether. After an in terval Mrs. Sisson heard the men go away.
 Mrs. Sisson entered the room and fled screaming. When the police and Medical Examiner Knight came they found Wesley lying beside the bed, a razor at his side. In the throat
