Cumberland. Md, January An.
parently as far as ever from solution
is the mystery surrounding the deaths
last saturday of Charles II. Twigg, Of

Elosser, the dead bodies of whom were
round that afternoon by the mother
Of the girl. seated on a sofa in the
parlor of the Elosscr home Very
shortly after the tragedy it was es-
tablished that the two had died OF
cyanide OF potassium poisoning. This
is really the sum total Of what is
known about the case at this time.
This evening some interest was ex-
cited by the publication in Balti-
more evening paper of a story that told
circumstantially of what had been seen
in the Elosscr homo by a hoy imrne-
diately after the girl and her lover
she and Twigg were to have been mar
ried next day-had been discovered
dead. According 10 this story, the boy.

heard screams and ran to the Glosser
home, where, ho is said to have de-
clarcd, he saw Miss Elosscr. apparent

motionless on the sofa. The alleged
interview tended TO show that the two
had committed suicide together by
agreement, and that tho poison had
been in bottle which the boy said
was on the floor.
States Attorney David a. Robb to-
night questioned the boy closely. how
ever and afterward declared that he
placed no value whatever upon his
story, which tho states attorney said
was, as told him. contradictory in i'm
portant particulars. The story the
boy is alleged to have told also loses
value In view OF the statements of
of the Elosser family; for help.
Summed up, the evidence at hand
throws not the slightest light upon the
mysterious case. Theories are plenty;
