Other developments included the fact
that the supreme council of the Loyal

cation and the causes of death of Kenny

John Abbott said, regarding the cor
oners position: "Of course, we are ready
for anything that Mr.. Spain will do.
have been consulting with Solicitor Hef-
lin and Judge Greene and both have ad-
vised me that they cannot see how any
criminal proceedings can be instituted
against any of the officers of the local
Moose lodge. | have nothing to say re-
garding civil suits.
Mr.. Williams, Mr.. Vanlandingham and
myself are leaving for Cincinnati in time
to be there Sunday night to meet the
officers of the supreme council at the Sin

and explain this situation to them.

the supreme council for permission to

first witnesses called, according to the
coroner. John Abbott has given to Coro-
ner Spain the names of the members of
the degree team that initiated the new
members Thursday night, Coroner Spain
stated yesterday.
Interesting developments yesterday
were the rapid fire accusations between
the embalmers and Coroner Spain.
2 On the one side yesterday the en-
balmers of Shaw's and Johns openly
defed Coroner Spain and stated that
they would embalm the remains of any
person that were brought to their
morgues despite the coroners orders
to the contrary. Frank Noon of the
John Undertaking company said:
"It was by my orders that the re-
mains of Gustin were embalmed and
this was done as soon as the body ar
rived al our morgue. Whether Coroner
Spain objects to the embalming is no
concern of ours; we owe a duty to
the body and We are going to perform
it to the best of our ability despite the
edicts of Mr.. Spain"

Shaw's, was equally as emphatic in his
