March 5--coroner Eli Mix today began an inquiry into the circum- stances surrounding the suicide of Lillian May Cook, whose body was found in a this city yesterday after the police of three states had been searching for her for d week. The coroner spent the entire day in secretly examining several wit nesses and hearing the reports of phy- sicians he had assigned to perform an autopsy upon tue body of the woman.
 A detective who has been engaged upon the case announced late today yirginius J. Mayo, possessor of a dual personality, and employer of Miss Cook, had been served with subpoena requiring him to appear before the coronor on Monday and assist, if he could, in determining what prompted the young woman to take her life.

 After the examination the coroner said;
