Position OF Bodies stilI Mystery.
Every scrap of evidence about the
manner in which the bodies lay seems
to bear out the detectives and throw
the McCabe evidence somewhat into
question. AS has been told, the bodies
lay in orderly fashion. not as II the two
had fallen where they were shot. The
mans coat was buttoned, the woman's
dress was lying about her quite neatly.
The mans hat was over his face and
beneath his hat his srectacles we're in
place. The woman's scarf was over her
face.
1t was quite clear tliRt no two persons
shot to death could have fallen in any
such fashion. Care had been shown In
their laying out. This would, perhaps,
lend color to the contention OF Mrs.
McCabe that there was two women at
the scene.
