INQUEST FAILS TO
CLEAR MYSTERY
IN MURDER CASE
Jury in Christine Anderson
Staying Finds Aged Victim
Met Death at Hands of Un-
known Person.

The testimony adduced at the in
quest before the jury summoned by
County Attorney Magney failed to
throw any light on the mystery sur
rounding the murder sof Mrs. Chris
tine Anderson, aged rs years, in her
home, 1896 Corby street, Saturday
night. w.,
The verdict fails to inplicate any
person in the commission OF the
crime. The finding was that the vic
tim came to her death at the hand OF
some person unknown. .,
The inquest was conducted by
Deputy County Attorney Piatti and
was he'd at the undertaking rooms OF
Cole & Mckay. The Jurors were
Adolph Harm, Peter .Ault, W. F.
Dinney, Captain MalIiason, Fred
Drumming and John c. Wizard.
HEAD PARTIALLY SEVERED.
DR.. Samuel McCleneghan, physician
for the county attorney testified to
the examination of the body of Mrs.
Anderson. He found a confusion
over the left cheek, two deep cuts
along the left jaw, each about two
inches long, and ragged cut from
slightly below the left ear, extending
across the throat, seyering the jugu-
lar vein and the windpipe. T.
This was about one and one-halt
inches deep, and, in his opinion, pro-
duced almost instant death. He also
found a confusion on the right jaw,
several on the hands and on the
breast. ~ ..
The physician testified that Mrs.
Anderson's throat was cut with a
knife and the contusions we're the
result Of blows struck with some
blunt instrument.
John Stemle, All Corby street, 600
feet west of the Anderson home, had
known Mrs. Anderson ten or eleven
years and was certain that she did not
have ap enemy. Last Satu<day even

Mrs. Lena LeVan, Mrs Anderson's
daughter, leave the house and walk
