Immediately, and remained until 3
o'clock in the evening. DR.. II. A.
Fink was called and diagnosed the
case as acute cholera mOrbus. This
diagnosis, according 10 other physic-
ians. is a natural one as symptoms in
arsenic poisoning and cholera morbus
are practically the same.
The doctor it is claimed left in
structions and medicine. Neighbors
who were at the residence claim that
Suhl took very little OF the medicine.
Also, against the physicians order

il is charged. He soon went into con-
vulsions and died at o'clock IN the
morning.
DR.. Fink was not called again until
after Suhl had died.
Motive Not Clear.
A clear motive has not yet been de-
fined by the prosecution. Mrs Suhl
owns several pieces Of property on
the east side of the river. She is

time after their marriage the prop

wife is said 10 have been named sole
owner IN recent papers filed with the
county recorder. Mrs. Suhl is said 70
have expressed a desire 10 keep her
property intact, in that she wished II

Mrs. Suhl when arrested Wednes-

ARREST MRS. AUGUSTA SUHL;
CHARGE POISONING HUSBAND
Analysis Shows Arsenic in Stomach of South
Bend Man Who Died Suddenly Aug.
l9 = Find Druggist Who
Sold Her Poison

Mrs. Augusta Suhl, 613 St. Vincent
st, was arrested before noon Wednes-
day morning charged with the mur-
der OF her husband. Carl Suhl, by
poison on the morning of Wednesday
Aug 19. She is being held at the
county Jail, pending trial in circuit
court for murder in the first degree,
without bail.
The arrest of Mrs. Suhl is a sem
sational climax to an affair which
stirred the east side of the city more,
probably, than any other event in re-
cent years. The woman is charged
with administering large doses of
arsenic to her husband. The method
of giving the deadly poison has been
disclosed by evidence turned up IN
investigations conducted by Pros.
Montgomery and by Chief Kuespert
of the city detectives, the latter au-
thorities declare.
Evidence Il CircumStantial.
The case against Mrs. Suhl will be
based largely upon circumStantial eV-
| idence. but according TO the author
tiles the evidence will weave a net
from which il will be difficult TO es-
cape. Mrs. Suhl has been under sus-
since she evinced alarm when the
| body OF her husband was exhumed at
the request of Corner T. J. Swantz and
| the stomach removed and sent for
examination by the state board OF
! health.
The police department was advised
Tuesday by the state health Office
| that the stomach showed signs of eX-
| cessive administrations OF arsenic.
That report coming after Montgom-
cry and Kuespert had located an east
side druggist who admitted that ne
had sold Mrs. Suhl an ounce of ar
senic for other purposes. was the di-
rect cause Of the Womans arrest
Bought Poison For Rats.
She told me she wanted the poison
TO kill rats and mice," said the drug
gist in response to queries by detec-
tives. she was calm and cool when
she asked for the POISON and we had
no reason TO think that she wanted
, the drug for any other purposes.
IL is thought that the poison was
in SuhFs food at breakfast upon the

boys he would say TO his little group.
sAA-tA-tl--st--fesetfec soon
THE petty officer organized another
little colony of wounded and like the
lieutenant kept his men together.
Time and again he pulled back many,
who through exhaustion released their
holds on the wreckage. He tried to
get the men TO sing a Tipperary song.
A few Joined in the first few lines of
the chorus, but they became silent very
soon. Their wounds and their suffer
ings from the cold water caused them
too much agony.
ReScuerS i'm Sight.
For an hour or more the petty
officer kept his colony afioat, but then
one of the men let go and went down.
A little later three others slipped
away and sank before the petty Off
Ger could reach them.
After what seemed an eternity we
saw smoke on the horizon. We lived
in an agony Of suspense until the out
line of the ship showed il was a
torpedo boat.
THE petty officer cheered his little
flock anew a. the sight of the torpedo
boat. singing and urging them to hold
on a little while longer. 1t was not
until we were taken aboard that we
learned that the petty officer had been
wounded in the explosion. He was so
exhausted when the rescue boat drew
alongside that it was with difficulty
that he was lifted aboard

Survivor of British Cruiser
Pathfinder, Blown up in North
Sea, Describes HeroiSm
Which Kept Down Death List
BY LAWRENCE ELSTON.

LONDON. Sept But for the
heroism displayed by officers Of the
British cruiser Pathfinder when that
North sea, the loss of life would have
been much heavier. This was reveal
ed today when the story OF the disas-
ter was told by one of the survivors.
The sailors were busy about their
ordinary duties when the crash came"
he said. 1T was terribly sudden. The
vessel shuddered from end to end. 1t
was like the CULVER of some mammoth
creature in agony. Those in the fore
part Of the vessel where she was
struck, had no chance Others were
knocked down by the force OF the
explosion. Then came the moment of
horror.
Il was knocked down by the explo-
sion. but struggled TO my knees. Above
US and all around there was the black
ness of night. Wreckage Of all kinds
came down upon US out of the smoke
and darkness. 1 got up and ran aft
where the men were frantically work
ing. carrying out the orders of the Of
ficers.
Vessel Starts to Sink.
The Pathfinder. or what was left
of ii. was going down. Ii was settling
gradually into the water. The situa
tian was desperate. but we made the
most OF the short time We had by
throwing overheard everything that
might help in saving our lives. Our
small boats had been smashed, so We
pitched overheard bOoms, wooden
gratings and anything we could lay
our hands on that would float. We
even tried 10 wrench doors of their
hinges but this was too much OF a
task for us.
In the meantime the smoke cloud
had cleared somewhat and we then
saw that only the stern of the Path
finder was above water and that the
heavy sea was strewn with wreckage.
There was no panic among US. The
officers were splendid in their cool
ness. Soon the stern began TO tilt up
ward more and more. We had done
everything that could no done and
were awaiting final orders. Quickly.
dramatically. they came.
Overheard, boys, and every man
for himself. shouted the officer. and
as the order ended every man aboard
leaped into the stormy sea When We
came 10 the surface We grabbed hold OF
anything that fioated and clung TO II
in the hope that soon some rescue
ship would come and take Us aboard.
Heroic Officers Rescue Many.
The wonderful heroism of a lieu
tenant and petty officer kept the
death list down. Many OF our men
were dazed and wounded when they
jumped overheard They seemed un-
able 10 swim 10 pieces of wreckage
that would keep them afoat. Then it
was that the two officers. both power
ful swimmers. swan around in the
sea dragging pieces OF wood TO the
dazed men and getting them TO hang
TO IL. The lieutenant alone saved Il
m n this way.
The lieutenant then watched over
the pitiful little colony. When he saw
that one or another was losing his
grip he swan over quickly, placed the
arm or the sailor around the wreck
age again, made him take "A tight hold
and told him that help soon would
come.
Hang on Just little while longer
