I THREE STRANGERS IN NCE AT
 SlEM0N HEARING

Interest at the coroner.s hearing in the iernon-DeAlartino case at the court house yesterday was divided Between testimony of three witnesses that they saw the body of the de- ceased barbers' supply man hurtling through the air into the shadow Of the trees, and the presence at the hear ing or three strangers whose identity or purpose has not as yet been learned.
 The presence of. three strangers was noted from the fact that one of them simi larly resembles Carl F. Sienaon in face and contour of body They have been constant attendants at the hear ing, and are apparently greatly in- terested in the testimony given. Though they have excited the interest of reporters and detectives. they have been able to make good their exit from the chambers before they could
 It was whispered about the corri- dors yesterday that one Of the men might be a relative of Siemon, but this fact is discredited by the author ities as well as by those who know Sienon's family. They insist that the resemblance is. merely coincidence.
 Miss Alice T. Peterson, who with her father and mother were walking near the scene of the tragedy on the night of October 29, 1910, testified that she heard the noise of the body strik- ing the car, and saw the shadow of the dead man pass from the side of the car to the sidewalk, while the car sped on at a high speed past them. She tried to ascertain the number on the rear of the car, but was unable to do so for the tail-light was either out or indistinct Mrs Peterson saw the body Of Deldartino strike the ground and she, as well as Gustave A.
