LAWsoN's BODY
 FELL INTO CELLAR.
corcner's Theory That Weedstoek Man Was Killed at Head of Stairs.


 Coroner A. c. Bill, in connection with stock murder case, has sent to New Haven collection of articles that are to be subjected to tests to determine if certain stains that appear upon them are human blood. Some of these arti- cles are garments. Other things in cluded in the lot are pieces of wood, some of these taken from the cellar steps.
 The theory of the coroner is that Lawson was killed at the top of the cellar stairs and that his body fell from them into the cellar, from where it was taken out a cellar exit to the barn. This theory is substantiated in a measure by evidence that has been found
 There were no developments in the case Friday and it was said by an off, cial in touch with the case that it was not possible to state how much time would elapse before further action would be taken. Mrs. Lawson remains critically Ill, suffering from heart trou- ble in an aggravated ferm. It is ex- pected, however that she will recover from the shock of the tragedy within a short time.
 an extremely lively interest in the case and have evolved many theories of what occurred at the Lawson home at the time of the murder but as to the value of any or all of these theo- ries not much can be said until fur ther investigation has been made.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR.
The Municipal lee Question.

MT. Editor: One of the most inn portant meetings in the history of this city is called for next Tuesday evening 10 take action on the municipal ice question It is a matter that chaI- lenges the most serious thought of ev- cry thinking voter and should be op- , posed by every intelligent elector. First, because it was conceived in po- ldlcal sin. The whole scheme is a measure of Mayor Dunn and his city ring machine as a cheap play to the galleries to further his own selfish pontical ends. 1t was a departure in puDlc policy the aldermen a majority or whom are democrats. never ought to have voted without giving the cleo tors and taxpayers of this city a fair warning and hearing. The munich pal icehouse was erected contrary in spirit, II not in letter. to the pro- visions Of the city charter that provide that no public contract should be talk en by an official of the city Tha munlelpal 1cehouse was built by a son-in-l Jaw of Alderman at Large Mar tn, and City Clerk A. c.

Smith, who saved the city thls season from an ice famine has stated he will not. compete with the clty ID the ice business after this sea- son. The Dunn-Gates- Cummings star chamber dinner at the Hooker house so fully reported by your correspond ent at the time. shows the political compinatIon that seeks to dictate the public policy of this city for selfish political reasons.
