WAS COUNTY
MAN POISON
VICTIM?
Analyses Of Vital Organs Of
Body of Theodore RyersOn Of
New Brunswick May Lead to
Sensation.
BIZ Staff Correspondent.

BIZ Staff Correspondent.
NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. 20-The
possibility that the analysis of the
vital organs which were removed
from the body of Theodore Ryerson,
Jr., of this city, when his body was
exhumed yesterday morning, would
show that his death was caused by
poison and not by heart trouble, as
was supposed to have caused his
death, has awakened a great amount
of interest in this city and vicinity.
Owing to the fact that Ryerson was
employed as a chief salesman for the
York Safe & Lock Company, of So
Maiden Lane, New York City, the
case is drawing considerable attention
in New York.
1t is the belief of the father OF
Ryerson that foul play was RESPONSE
bic for the mans death. The wife of
the deceased, who is about thirty
years old, was the sole administrators
of the estate and her father-in-law
has said that she has already disposed
of large part of it.
According to the father the estate
left bys his son amounted to about
$4,000 which, owing to the absence
of a will, went to the pretty young
widow, Ora May Starr Ryerson. The
couple were married six years ago.
The father is said to have in his
possession anonymous letters which
We're sent to him In which assertions
are made that poisoned whiskey had
caused the death of his son. No
direct charge against any individual
is made in connection with the death.
- According to statement made by
Mrs. Ryerson, Jr., she and her
terms. Il am glad there is to be an
inquiry, but 1 did not know such a
thing was intended" she said dis
cussng the case.
Prior to the exhuming of the body
of Ryerson everything had not gone
along smoothly. Following his death
on April IA last, at his home here,
his entertaining several friends at his
home. burial was made without the
necessary permit. In order to comply
with the law the body was disinterred
three days later. Opening the grave
and coffin, County Physician Suydam
certified that death was due to heart
disease brought on by indigestion.
The evening before his death Ry-
erson was in the best of health, ap-
parently, he and his wife entertaining
friends. After the guests left he was
taken suddenly i'll with what appeared
to be acute Indigestion.
He died before the arrival Of ply
sician. The father claimed that on
the following morning he learned of
his sons death, but through indirect
channels, whereas Mrs. Ryerson said
the father was informed Immediately
but failed to arrive at the home Of
the dead man until 9 o'clock Sunday
morning.
Negligence was shown, the father
claims, in sending for DIR. Hults who
lives some distance away, when DR..
Rice has an office within forty feet Of
the Ryerson home. If DIR. Rice had
been summoned, the father points out,
saved
According to the story told by Mrs.
Ryerson her husband often~ came
home intoxicated on Saturday after
noon or evening. He had been drink
ing rather heavily on the night be-
fore his death, she said.

Fastening Of Negotiations in
Paris Likely TO Result, Which
viii Cause Resumption Of
Trade, Etc., With Enemy

BU The Associated Press.
PARIS, Nov. 20-The adjournment
of the United States Senate for the
session without ratification of the
peace treaty created much surprise in
conference circles, as dispatches from
Washington had suggested that some
compromise would be possible. Henry
White. of the American delegation,
received the news from the Associated
Press while he was attending the su-
preme council session this morning.
The members of the council after ad-
journment withheld comment on TIE
situation.
No formal meeting has yet been
held between the German delegates
who arrived yesterday morning and
representatives of the allied powers
concerning the proposed protocol TO
the German peace treaty. 1t now
seems unlikely that the protocol VIII
be signed before the end of Novem-
Der, as the Germans have shown q
disposition to resist the provision re-
curing them to replace the warships
sunk when their fleet was scuttled at
Scapa Flow, and they have manifest
ed a desire TO argue the question:
Failure of the Allied and Associated
powers to reach an agreement on

their position.
AS the protocol must be arranged
before the formal announcement OF
ratification of the treaty by the three
bowers, required to make it effective,
the date of putting the treaty INTO
effect seems uncertain.
In French official circles, however.
although there was disappointment
over the senate's adjustment with the
treaty situation still unsettled, no
surprise was expressed and it even
seems that the event had been eX-
pected. Apparently the situation had
been discussed and measures taken

prevailed, the council expressing the
opinion that II would be desirable TO
put the treaty into effect on Decem-
ber i. In this position it may be
noted that the French foreign once
was aware of the probability that the
American senate would not meet
again before the first week in Decen-

Harris was burned about the face

burns on the neck. The fact that Har-

vitality important work, and
trust you will give me the pleas

members.
Guided by the experience of
the last conference / have
thought IL advisable that in this
new body there should be no
recognition OF distinctive group,
but that ali OF the new repre-
scntatives should have concern
that our industries may be con-
Quoted with such regard for JUS
ticc and fair dealing that the
workman will feel himself In
duced to put forth his best efforts
that the employers will have an
encouraging profit and that the
public will not suffer at the hands
of either class. 1t is my hope that
this conference may lay the foun-
dation for the development OF
standards and machinery within
our industries by which these re-
suits may be obtained.

that you may be fortunate enough

Hand Grenade ExpIOdes
Breaking Boys Fingers

Michael Dunick, fifteen years old of
Ogden Place, while xorking in a pile
of junk at the yards of Herman Ellis
in Second street yesterday, dropped
what proved to be hand grenade
which exploded, breaking three fin
gers on one Of the mans hands. How
the grenade came to be in the junk
heap is not known as it was said at
the Ellis yard today that no grenades
were being stored there.
Dunick had worked at the Ellis
junk yard for four weeks. He was
picking up pieces of iron yesterday
when he dropped an odd shaped OBJ
ject. Just as he leaned over to pick
it up again it exploded. The man
had three fingers broken and a piece
of wire was blown into his hand. He
went to the office of DIR. Frank c..
Henry where he was attended.
