FRANK HANGED NEAR GRAVE OF ALLEGED VICTIM
OF EVERSOLE
Is DEMONSTRATED

Coroner Swantz demonstrated Tues
day morning TO newspaper men how
Silas B. Eversole could easily have
hung himself TO the bars of his cell. A
reporter played the part of EversOle
and suffered the following experiences:
First he was placed upon a steel
compartment, perhaps three feet high
at the rear of the cell and to one side
of the position in which Eversole was
discovered hanging. His hands and
feet were trussed with imaginary tow
els and blankets and the lead pipe
with which EVersOle strangled himself
was placed about his neck. Just as it
was when the dead man was drst dis
covered
Then Coroner Swantz attempted to
SHOVE him from the compartment
Just as the inquisitive reporter was be-
ginning TO believe that the end of
things earthly had come he was
caught by the coroner and Turnkey
Barkley Of the Jail. and asked If il
would be possible for a man to have
ended his life in that manner.
eS, indeed was the weak. but
nevertheless decisive answer.
1t is thought that the coroner will
render verdict of suicide either Tues
day evening or Wednesday, The in
quest is being conducted by the cor
oner with the assistance of the sheriff
and police.

Five Men Tell Deputy PrOSeCu-
tor Schwartz They Saw AL
legged Slayer of MaCkIin
Girl Here.
FATAL CALL SENT
FROM WOMAN'S HOME
New Angles Developed in Last
"a Hours Connect Two
Murders and Mans
Suicide.

Several startling angles from which
the police, detective and sherlttS de-
partments have obtained enough eVl-
dence to state that there is some con-
nection between the murder of Cora
Logan Brandon and the suicide at the
county jail of Silas b. EversOle, ac-
cused of the murder of Hazel Mack
lin. developed after a days investga-
ton by the three departments
The most significant and the one
upon which Deputy Pros. Samuel
Schwartz expects TO definitely settle
the question of EVersole's guilt in the
Macklin case, is the report that Ever
sole called over the telephone from
the Logan woman's place on Lincoln
way f. on the night of Aug. 3 and
made arrangements to meet Hazel
Macklin at SpringbrOOk park.
Another is the evidence of five men,
said to be in the hands of Schwartz,
that EversOle was positively identitied
in the barroom of the Oliver hotel
Wednesday night before his arrest at
Bristol Thursday. He was said to
have been in an intoxicated condition
at that time.
The third angle upon which the
deputy prosecutor is pushing a rigid
investigation, is the possibility that
the Logan woman might have been
murdered by EVersole Wednesday
night, and that Immediately after his
deed, he returned TO his home IN
Bristol.
Thinks Man Mistaken.
OF certain facts relating to the ac-
quaintance of the Logan woman with
Eversole the deputy prosecutor is 81
lent He declares. however, upon the
advice of Coroner T. J. Swantz, and
the statements of the woman's near
est neighbors at her home three miles
south of the city on the Olive st. road,
that little credit should be given 70
the testimony of Clarence Flack, taxi
cab driver who claims he drove the
woman from the office of the Ameri-
can Express Co. to the Melber meat
market, 3O7 y. limerick st. on
Thursday afternoon.
Coroner Swantz stated Tuesday
morning that the condition of the
woman's body at the time she was
discovered was in a sufficient state of
decomposition for her to have been
dead more than a week. Her scalp
was rapidly disintregating, and when
she was lifted from the floor, bits of
flesh and skin covered with coagu-
lated blood. dropped from her head
10 the floor.
"She looked like she might have
been in water for two weeks" said

was dead at least five days when she
was found Some bodies will decay
and disintregate more rapidly than
others, it is true. But the proportion
