SUITS TO SOON Be FILED
Hard Fight to Start For $17,5oo Ac-
cident Insurance Carried by Dead
Man, Which Insurance Companies
Refuse to Pay.

Whether or not the attorneys rep
resenting the insurance companies in
the b, e. Jacobs case will charge
that he was Intentionally poisoned is
not known, but, Judging from the re-
port of DR.. j. +. Harris, who examined
the body of the deceased, a copy of
which was received yesterday by At
torney II. e. Dart, representing Mrs.
Jacobs, it is claimed that his death
was due to strychinine.
DIR. Harris says IN the report that
organs OF the body contained this
drug and th-. a prominent chemist in
Atlanta, who was called in to make an
examination gave the same opinion.
The only point uncertain, the report
continues, was the amount of strych-
nlne that the body contained and
this can only De calculated by an
examination Of the entire body.
Suits Will at once be filed by Mr..
Dart against the three accident insur-
ance COMPANIES for policies aggrega-
ting $4,000 and the case will develop
an interesting fight among physicians.
The attorney for Mrs. Jacobs will con-
tend that her husbands death was

lock-jaw set in after the accident and
caused his death. The principal wit
ness will be Dr. j. A. Butts, the at
tending physician, who will no doubt
testify that the death of Mr.. Jacobs
was, due to lock-iaw. The attorneys
VIII contend that If strychnine was
given 1t was done only to stimulate
the heart action from the shock OF
the accident.
The case is likely to assume grave
| proportions, and 1t is intimated that
attorneys representing the insurance
companies will make some very Sc
rious charges, and may charge that
the death of Mr.. Jacobs was due en-
t'rely to strychnine
Attorney Dart will probably file
