known that Miss Florence Vain

Offices late Friday night. had met her

Fadden Dick had said she died OF
heart trouble II was known the
doctor had said privately that she
had probably come TO her death from
taking pills which we're marked
"qulnine.' but which we're purchased
for another purpose than that for
which qulnine is prescribed.
Harry Dennis. foreman Of the Cor
oner's jury conducting the investiga-
evidence and expects to have It COM
plete when the jury convenes again
Friday. II is said the name OF the
person who purchased the pills is
known and that this person probably
win be arrested before Friday.
The investigation is being conduct
ed so quietly, Il is impossible to guess
safely who the guilty party is. but IL
is stated by one on the inside there
will be a big sensation when all the
facts become known.
II was learned yesterday that Miss
Wainwright had said to a dressmak-
er several weeks ago, when getting a
dress fitted. that she wished she were
dead, and that no one knew the
trouble she was in. From this state
ment some arc inclined to believe the
pills we're taken with the intention Of
suicide. Il was also learned that an
operation had been performed re-
Gently.
Miss Wainwright had a weak heart,
and It is thought an overdose of
the pills brought about her death.
Despite orders that jurors and wit
nesses before the inquest give out
no information OF the line of inquiry,
IL is persisltently rumored that the
vital organs Of the young woman
will be sent 10 Johns Hopkins Hos
pital, in Baltimore, for analysis, and
that the result Of the probe will be
made known Friday at the inquest.

a divorce from her husband, AL

leges they were married June IA,
1893, and that a son, now Is
years old, and a daughter, 13
years old, were born as the issue
of said marriage; that by reason
of his idleness and dissipation he
has wilfully neglected her and
the children and spends his earn
ings for drink. She also asks
that he be enjoined from dispos-
ing of a valuable set of carpenter
tools she purchased for him at
one time, and from interfering
with the household. The other
suit was brought by John H.
Broderick, asking to be divorced
from his wife, Cora L. Broder-

He charges her with having COM

and at one time was an inmate
of a house of ill-fame at Tittin, U.

Lightsville, O., in January, 1872,
and has since remained away.

alley to Water street, then to the
D. & U. railroad track, north on
this track to the C. N. crossing
and on to the Ft. Recovery pike,
where the trail was lost. At this
latter point there was evidence
of an automobile having stood
and it is supposed they made
their getaway in a machine. The

of the approach of a train, and
it was evident that he saw the

to the track, he thought he could
get across ahead of the train, or
in the excitement of the moment,
