-D|XLER MET DEATH
THROUGH ACCIDENT
Perry County Authorities Believe
He Fell Down Stairs With
Lighted Lamp
HOLD INQUEST TOMORROW
State Policeman Still at Scene
of the Tragedy to Com
plete Investigation
HOLD INQUEST TOMORROW
Special TO The Telegraph

New Bloomfield. Pa, March 24.-L
Curtin BlXler died after falling down
flight of stairs in his home near Blk
Ter Monday morning and his body was
charred when the lamp which he was
carrying set fire to the building is the
opinion of District Attorney Walter W.
Rice, of Perry county and State
Trooper Curtis e. Davies, who have
been investigating the case.
Trooper Davies. however, is still at
Bixler in an effort to clear up several
points which are not yet clear.
Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock
Squire Showers, of Sandy Hill, will
conduct an inquest at the BiXler home
merely in compliance with the law,
according to the district attorney, and
not in an effort to prove that the old
man was murdered or committed sui
eide. Witnesses, it is said, will show
that Bixler met his death through an
accident and not by foul play or by his
own hands.
Fell Down Stairs
From the position of the charred
remains the investigators have come
to the conclusion that Bixler. arising
shortly before o'clock Monday morn
ing. walked down the stairs to the first
floor, carrying a lighted lamp. The
supposition is that he tripped on one
of the steps and fell and that he be-
came unconscious. The lamp set fire
10 the house furnishings and the old
man is believed to have died without
regaining consciousness. When the
first floor of the house fell into the
cellar BiNler's body fell with it and it
was found at a point directly beneath
where the stairs 10 the second floor
had been.
Banked i'm Bloomfield
From authoritative sources to-day
1t was learned that Mr.. Bixler never
had very much money i'm his home at
any time. He is said to have dow his
banking at New Bloomfield and that
every few days he took money there.
According to the authorities. there
is one point which still leaves some in
5oubt as to whether the old man did
1T commit suicide. It has been
that BiXler had two wills and
that the second was made out no later
than month ago. Some persons who
Incline to the suicide theory believe
that BiXler made out the second will
intending to end his life soon after
Until the authorities obtain possession
of copies of the will this one point
cannot he cleared.
The remains of Bixler's body. a few
charred bones. all of which could
easily be placed in a two-quart lar.
were brought here yesterday and this
afternoon they will be examined by
physicians as a matter of form to
prove whether they are the bones of
man or q woman. No ARRANGEMENTS
nave yet been made for the funeral
