TYLER CASE
A SENSATION
Daushter-in-law and Grandson In.
dieted for Staying Mrs. Allen.
Aged Eighty Years.
MONEY ALLEGED TO
HAVE BEEN MOTIVE
Victim Was Found on Floor Of Home
With Indications Of Effort to
Hide Crime.

Special Dispatch to the Intelligencer
MlDDLEBOURNE. w. Va. July 2f.
One of the biggest sensations of the
Tyler county grand jury came today
when indictments were returned ac.
cusing Mrs. Rachel Allen and her son
Claude Allen. of Shirley. of the mur.
der of Mrs. Elizabeth Allen, aged so.
The woman is the daughter-in-law or
the victim OF the crime and who lived
in an adjoining house TO where the
murder occurred. The trial will not
occur until the November term or
court.
Money Is supposed to have been the
motive of the murder. The crime oc-
CURED a little over year ago. The
aged woman lived in a house Just ad-
Joining the home OF her daughter-in-
law. On the night before the murder
IL was rumored she had a sum or
money in the house. The aged wo-
man refused to have anyone remain
with her al night. The daughter-in-
law helped care for her. On the MORN
ing the body was found the daughter.
in-law declined to go TO the house. but
sent one OF her children. The fact OF
the murder was thus communicated
to the daughter-in-law. who gave the
alarm. The body was found on the
floor. Pools OF blood had been
wiped up and cotton had been placed
in the nostrils to prevent more blood
flowing from them The money vas
gone from its hiding place. but later
mysteriously reappeared on a table a
day later.
The body was found on the floor.
There was every indication that IL
had been dragged from one end of the
house TO the other before finally dc.
posted. The daughter-in-law declared
she knew nothing OF the murder. and
at the time her husband, the son OF
the murdered woman, was dying of.tu.
berculosis. The case was allowed "a
drag Tor a time and the husband or
the accused woman died. Following
his death Prosecuting Attorney Moore
presented the facts to the grand turv.
and the result was the double indict.
ment yesterday.

Special Dispatch to the Intslligencer.
HUNTINGTON. W. Va. July 27.-
Elbert Artis will try to establish an
alibi TO save himself from the gallows
for the murder of Mrs. Elizabeth Hail.
imediatcly the defense began the in
PRODUCTION OF testimony that indicated
that they would base their case on an
alibi. Artis' young wife was one Of
the first witnesses called and she swore
that while her husband was not at
home when she retired on the night
that Mrs. Hall was murdered. that she
was awakened when he came home In
what she believed was the fore part
OF the night. Several other witnesses
were called to establish an alibi for
Artis. but none was POSITIVE in their
testimony that they saw him on the
same night the murder was committed
and the efforts of the defense today
ended in "A dismal railurc as far as
establishing an alibi was concerned.
Whether or not Artis will take the
stand in his own defense IS as yet
doubtful. but IL is not considered prob
able that he will. Step by step the
state has shown that Arts was the last
man seen with Mrs. Hall when she
was alive and that upon the eve Of
the tragedy that he held in his pos
session by his own admission, the
money that she carried with her when
she left home.
The surprise OF the day IN the case
was the direct reversal OF the testi-
mony OF Charles II. Lee, a negro con-
Wet. regarding the letter that ne had
previously admitted on the stand that
ne wrote at the dictation OF Artis 10
one OF the attorneys for Arts. In the
letter Artis appealed to his attorney
to try To yet two Of the witnesses for
the prose cution away and the defense
objected 10 the Introduction Of the let
