alcoholic drink" said the doctor
Alcohol is being used but compara-

Beeler was also shot accidentally
by Mrs. tSroud.
The killing was one Of the most
sensational that ever occurred in this
part Of the South and was followed
by an attempt to lynch Mrs. Stroud
and Beeler. officers, by quick action,
got the pair away from Shreveport
and the woman has since been IN

Powerful Washington Friends Said
To Be Determined to Save
Her From Prison.

NEW YORK, June 21-Waiting in
her cell in the Tombs for the court to
fix her term of imprisonment for
thefts from society women in fash
ionable churches, Mrs Randolph
Fitzhugh" is a mystery that New
York students of criminology have
been unable to fathom.
When the woman was first arrested
on complaint Of Dorothy Fisk daugh-
ter Of Pliny Fisk, the banker, who
accused her of stealing a gold mesh
bag, she gave the name Of Mrs. Ran
dolph Fitzhugh."
Prominent Families Suggested.
Then the suggestion drifted out
that she was close relative Of for
mer Governor of Florida. Later the
word came that she had in her veins
the blood of the famous Randolph and
Fftzhugh families of Virginia She
neither confirmed nor denied the re-
ports.
After she had pleaded guilty to the
charges she declared that her real
name is Catherine Fennell, but no
word was spoken of her family con-
neCtions
This much the New York detectives
know: She is Of Southern birth and
raising and a Southerner of refined
and educated family. Her soft drawl-
ing voice her patrician features, her
calm and pose all tell this wildly.
Money had been spent literally in
her defense, though it was never dis
covered where this revenue came
from.
Her trial came to an abrupt end
when on its second day Abraham
Levy. chief counsel, refused to go on
with the proceedings and announced
his withdrawal.
: Before Judge Swami and the jury
could recover from their amazement
Mr.. Levy went on to say that he stood
ready to return the $4,000 cash re-
tainer given to him by relatives of
the defendant. The battery of COun-
sci associated with Mr.. Levy also
withdrew.
After a moments whispered con
versation with Assistant District At
torney Presiding Judge Swami re-
quested the jury to leave the room.
Hundreds Of fashiOnably dressed
women who crowded the court room
to capacity started a loud murmuring,
and with difficulty were Quoted by
court attendants.
Says She Dismissed" Them.
Judge Swami then asked why coun-
sci had withdrawn. Mrs. Fftzhugh
arose and in intensely dramatic fash
ion walked to the rail and said in a
loud voice
Il have personally dismissed my
