Timko's relatives are loath to believe that hec ommit- ted suicide and incline to the theory that he was the victim of foul play. Coroner Phelan is inclined to the be- lief that Timko committed suicide, al- though he has made no official ind ing At his instance William A. Thona- as, bal1istic engineer for the ReIning- ton Arrns-U. M. c.

There were two exploded cartridges but only one bull let wound in T1mko's head.
