Woman Still unconcerned.

Mrs. Armentrout was just as uncon-
cerned today as she has been at any
time since the death of her nephew.
Despite the fact that she Is charged
with murder she is just as cool and
collected as if naught had happened
to mar her peace of mind. The attor-
ney in Louisiana, Mo-, whom Mrs.
Armentrout sought to engage to de
fend her, wired back that it would be
impossible for him to accept her case,
and she was accordingly obliged to
look elsewhere for an attorney. At
torney j. E. Craig, a Keokuk lawyer,
was engaged to defend her today. Mrs.
Armentrout was visited today by a
friend named Ingraham, of Bowling
Green, Mo.
There were no new developments in
the case today and preparations were
made for the continuation of the in
QUESTION. In addition to the number
of witnesses already examined. it is
understood that number more will
be examined before the jury will
bring in its report.
While there were no developments
today, interest in the case continues
to grow, and it is probable that others
heretofore unmentioned will be drawn
| in the case as witnesses, and it is
| equally as probable that others will
be recalled to give additional evidence,
1 but what this will be. or what bearing
~ will have on the case remains to be
learned.
Mrs. Gray corrects impression.
Mrs. Ella Gray, 4Os South First
street, who. with her daughter, Miss
Harriet Gray, was wttsess at the
inquest, called at The Gate City Of
fee this morning and explained her
position in the Armentrout case, also.
that of her daughter. Mrs. Gray. a
4 distant relative of Mrs. Armentrout,
said they met in Keokuk by accident,
and although there was the slight re-
ilationship between them, they visited
4 but little and said she knew little
about Mrs. Armentrout and her at
fairs here in Keokuk. Referring to a
statement in last evenings Gate
city, which had it that Miss Gray ap-
|peared to be on familiar terms with
young Keithley on account of the
Language he used in talking to her, the
mother Of the girl said that such was
not the case Mrs. Gray said her
daughter had attended the same school
that Keithley attended in Missouri
but that the daughter knew hut little
concerning Keithley and was not on
familiar terms with him. The remarks
of the daughter. she said, to young
Keithley one morning after he had
Eeen out all night, were said in a
manner intended to cause Keithley to
mend his ways, rather than anything
else, and that Keithley's reply was
anything but what it should of been.
DlsIIkes NotorIety.
Mrs. Gray appears to be a very mod
est and retiring woman and while feel
ling that it was her duty to tell all
she knew concerning the case, dis
likes the notoriety and feels, along
with her daughter, that the impression
that might be carried with the state

A little pill box, across. the top of

key to the solution of the death of
young William Keithley, who died at
the home of his aunt, Mrs. Belle Arm

evening after eating the evening meal,
and for which death the aunt was ar
rested and lodged in the city jail to
answer to a charge of murder.
Whether the box found in the cook

The secret which it holds is not much
Of a secret, yet 1t is just of sufficient
Importance to complete the chain
needed to perfect case of circum-
stantial evidence against Mrs Armen-
trout. If the police can locate where
the box containing the strychnine was
purchased, they feel that they would
have the solution of the death.
Persistent efforts on the part of the
police to locate the party who sold the
|strychnine have been unavailing. The
difficulty in locating the party prob
ably arises in the fact that the party

lated state law in its disposal The
name of the party selling it was not
on the box, and it is very probable
that the party who sold it did not keep

succeed in locating the party who sold
the strychnine. When this point is
established the authorities are Of the
opinion that the case will be cleared.

NOTICE EARTH SHOCKS

LAWRENCE. Kan, July 7-Heavy
earth shocks, seventy minutes In dura-

of the University of Kansas, beginning at
lie o'clock this morning. The center of
the disturbance was estimated at 2.sOo
miles distance.
The vibration marks Of the h,viest
part of the shocks were three and three
fourths inches across the instrument,
the most violent known since its install
iation five years ago. The waves were
heavier in the west than in the north
and south.
Prof. H. p Cady, In charge of the OBJ
servatory, said there wsaa two probable
centers-one to the northwest in Alaska
near the recent volcanic disturbances
and the other on the northwest coast of
South America in Colombia or Ecuador.
Since the seismograph does not record
the exact direction of the shocks it is
impossible further to identify their loea
