Detectives Delve Into Social
Life of Helen Knabe and

INDIANAPOLIS. IND, Oct. 2s.-Detec-
tives to-day took TO police headquarters
for examination Augusta Knabe, cousin.
and Katherine Mcpherson, assistant. to
DIR. Helene knabe, former State bacteri-
ologist. who was found dead with her
throat slashed in her apartment early
yesterday.
Completely baffled in their efforts to
secure a clue In the death mystery Of
DIR. Helene Knabe. and n of the
best known women physicians of the
Middle West. the Indianapolis police
to-day worked on the theory OF revenge
as the only possible solution Of the
mystery.
Coroner Durham to-day announced.
after a complete examination that tho
body OF the dead physician showed no
evidence of criminal assault. lie couts
a suicide theory, and considers that the
evidence that DIR. Knabe was murdered
conclusive. None of the woman's jewels
or valuables are missing. according to
the police. With these theories made
untenable the police to-day are seeking
out the life history of the dead woman
In an effort TO ascertain any enemie
that she may have had.
No hint OF any love affair has yet been
secured by the police and. so far as they
have been able TO find, that any man
called upon her. Practically all Of her
male acquaintance we're among the
physicians of the city.
That the death wound was inflicted on
