HUSBANDS DEATH DUE TO WIFE.
Mrs. Jennie May Eaton to Face Trial
For Death of Admiral.

Plymouth, Mass, Oct. 12.-Mrs.
Jennie May Eaton will be put on
trial Tuesday, charged with the mur-
der OF her husband, Rear Admiral
Jos. G. Eaton. The prosecution con-
tends that Mrs. Eaton gave the admi-
raj poison with his meals at their
home in Assinippi. The defense
claims that he died Of self-adminis-
tered drugs.
So far as known tonight the gov
ernment officials have been. unsuc-
cessful in their huntFfor the original
container of the poison, the place
where it was bought and the pur-
chaser.
Last March, three weeks after the
death Of the admiral, the district at
torney intimated that Mrs. Eaton's
mental condition would be the sub
ject of inquiry, but so far as known
no move in that direction has been
made
The prisoner formerly was the wife
Of d. H. Aainsworth, once clerk in
the United States Senate While ADJ,
miral Eaton and his first wife were
living in Washing MRS. AAinsz
worth was called las nurse TO care
for the admiral. Acquaintance grew
the nurse, Mrs. Eaton bequeathed tho
admiral to her care with the words:
Marry Joe, my dear, and make him
good"
In 1906 Cat Chicago) Mrs. Aains
worth divorced her husband, and six
months later she married the admiral
in Washington The bride brought
to the household her two daughters,
June and Dorothy.
In 1907 the admiral bought a little
farm in Assinippi. Two years later
he adopted a child that lived but a
short time. Mrs. Eaton publicly
charged her husband with having
poisoned the child. Investigation
failed to substantiate this.
A year or two later Mrs. Eaton
complained to friends that the admi-
raj Kept all sorts of queer East In
dian poisons about the place. She
wrote to friend that he was Sub
tie, dangerous maniac" and that Sic
was in fear Of her life.
Mrs. Eaton is As years Of age. Her
early life, as the daughter OF a prom
inent Virginia family-the Harri-
sons-and in Washington will be de-
scribed at the trial by witnesses sum-
mOned from both places

bullet missing, but the shell still re-
mained in the chamber The pistol
was so covered&wit blood that It
ran out Of the barrel when taken up.

Carey Barron, the young Henry coun-
ty physician in Jail here on a warrant
charging him with having poisoned

this afternoon that at the time he
was arrested he was on his way to
Miner to eXhume the body of the
dead woman and have the stomach
and internal organs tested.
DR.. Barron said he had heard Of
the rumors which charged him with

proposed to set them at rest by ex-
huming the body and having an anal
ysis made Of the internal organs.
The imprisoned physician is anx-
iously awaiting the examination of
his Wife's stomach by DR.. Edgard Ev-
erhardt, an Atlanta chemist. He says
he will be released as soon as this
examination is completed. None Of
