BUCKLEY. NOT MURDERED
Authorities Hold to First Theory that
Death Was Result OF
Accident

Although sensational newspaper az
counts which seem to have only facl-
full theories behind them, have endea-
vored to work the public up to tie be-
lief that murder had been committed
when young Patrick Buckley was kill
ed in the Braddock House on Sunday
morning, the Alexandria authorities,
while willing to listen to al! the sug-
gestions of the amateur detectives
positively state that no evidence has
as yet been brought to light to show
that crime was committed.
There is no doubt but that
Buckley came 10 his death fro'H
an accidental fall and there is no sus-
picion of foul play" wa: the state
made by Commonwealth Attorney
Samuel G. Brent, yesterday Afternoon
after he and Chief Goods had agar
visited the Braddock House and had
spent several hours in closely quest
ioninc the inmates. Mr.. Brent VINO
was on the scene of the accident
shortly after Buckley's body WIS
found, on Sunday morning, Weni nj
all the facts surrounding the liz ST
movements of the boy at that tlr4c
and was convinced that the death W.:
a result of an accidental fall. WitEh
the last fory- ght hours, however
some of Buckley= relatives and trlenns
who are convinced that he met ri:
death as a result of foul play CLAIM
to have found some suspicious 1act'
which would tend 10 prove that thcii
theory was correct and as result n
Brent again took up the matter WI
the result that he has been unable T.
find any confirmation of the iumots
and is more convinced than ever tina;
there are no indications OF a murder
The police department holds the saE'c
view and Chief Goods has run doN1
every theory that ha: been advanced
but without securing the slightest -
idence Of foul play.
Coroner Samuel 4. Moore stated
this morning that he saw no reason /:
change his opinion and chat no il,
quest would be ordered. He is co.,
WINGED that Buckley's death was ~

C0L0R[D WOMAN CUT
victim Refnsesto Give Name of Her
Assai!aat to the Police
Court.

Early last night Officer Roland, VINO
was on duty in the northeastern sec
ton of the city, ascertained that a
colored woman named Ellen Barbour,
had been slashed on the left arm by
negro named Lawrence Baker. The
officer arrested Baker and summoned
woman together with several witness
es, to appear at Police Court at 3
o'clock this morning.
One of the witnesses told Officer ko-
land That the Barbour woman had told
her that Baker had cut her. When
physician appeared for the purpose
Of rendering her surgical assistance
the victim Of the assault said she did
not know vino cut her.
There was every reason to believe
Baker welded the knife and his vic
tim vas disposed to exonerate him.
Upon being araigned in the Police
Court this morning she refused to di-
culge the name of her assailant, and
persisted in saying that the man who
made the attack, was unknown TO her,
although according to hei' statement.
she had been in his company and had
had a disagreement with him.
1t being impossible to obtain any
positive evidence against Baker, he
was released.
This was the only case before the
court this morning.
The above is one Of the many SINH
lar cases the police have to deal with.
It is extremely difficult to get ne
groes to testify against each other
even in cases OF serious assault.
