PRObERS BAFFLED
BY FURNACE DEATH
Prosecutor to Await Further
Examination of Mrs.
SheatsIey's Organs.
By the Associated Press.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 22-
Admission that the death of Mrs. Ad-
die Sheatsley, so years old. whose
body. virtually cremated, was found
by her husband, Rev. c. v. Sheatsley,
in the furnace OF their home in the
exclusive Bexley district Monday, still
presents a battling mystery, was made
today by County Prosecutor John r..
King.
He expressed confidence, however.
that the case eventually will be
solved.
The admission was made following
a conference at which Mr. King re-
viewed the case with those who are
working with him in the attempt to
esta blish definitely how Mrs. Sheats-
ley came TO her death. and how her
body came TO be in the furnace Dr.
r. G. Tarbell, an alienist, was present
at the conference. 1t was the first
time Mr. King had consulted an allen
list in connection with the case.
Awaits Chemists Report.
The investigation dragged TODAY.
and Mr.. King declared he was await
ing the complete report OF Chemist
c. F. Long, who last midnight, re-
ported to the prosecutor that his
analysis Of blood taken from the
lungs of the victim. proved to him
conclusively, that she was dead when
her body entered the fire bowl. No
trace OF carbon monoxide poisoning
was found in the blood, he said, ex-
planning that had Mrs. Sheatsley
breathed after she entered the frebox
her lungs would have become filed
with the poisonous fumes and the
blood would have quickly absorbed It.
Intense congestion found in the
lungs, he said, points either to
strangulation or suffocation.
4 Rev. Mr.. Sheatsley Wednesday noon
told Prosecutor King that he had
come to the conclusion that his wife
committed suicide by casting herself
into the furnace after becoming vio-
lently insane.
Says Story Was Changed.
Tuesday he told officials, according
to the prosecutor, that he believed
his wife had been murdered.
Mr.. King also is awaiting a patho-
logical report on the condition of
the lungs and sections of the esopho-
gus, thorax and stomach wall, which
is being made by DR.. H. NJ. Brundage.
This report may not be completed
for week or more, the prosecutor
said. At the conference today Dr.
Brundage said his preliminary work
had borne out the findings Of Chemis;
Long.
Detectives assigned to the case
spent today checking minor points
having some bearing on it, but to-
night said their efforts had not been
fruitful.
Re-examination of Rev. Mr.. Sheats-
ley and his four children-Milton, 90:
Clarence, Is; Elizabeth, IA, and Alice

KAISER DEMANDS
HUGE SUMS FROM
GERMAN PEOPLE
By CARL d. GROAT
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

| BERLIN, Oct. 17.-Prussian Fin
ance Minister Won Richter IS not-
j tied with the business methods of
; former Kaiser Wilhelm II.
He has discovered that the Kaiser
is Unsuitable in mis- demands upon
! the German republic, in connection
with the settlement of his estates
/ in Prussia.
Won Richter claims that N the
course of negotiations covering
five years the Kaiser has raised
the ante on the Prussian govern
ment. Thu Kaiser S representa-
tives, Excellenz Won Berg, SAYS the
Hohenzollern house, including 40
members needs 1,125,000 marks
yearly income to keep the wolf
from the door.
Won Richter responds that he in
no wise desires to put the former
Lord of Prussia on starvation ra-
tions, but he estimates that $4,000
acres of valuabla farm and forest
land in Germany. plus few castles,
running into millions of marks in
value, will yield several times the
minimum requirements set by the
Kaiser.
On the other hand, Won Berg
! reached the conclusion that the
Kaiser needed at least 100000 acres
and that the settlement proffered
| by the Prussian state would bring
the royal family not over 100000
marks a year.
All of which led Won Richter
somewhat testify to announce that
he thought it just as well to have
! a showdown in the, courts with
/ the Hohenzollern house. Whether
1 this showdown will come is uncer-
tain.
WOrkingmen existing on Il small
wage, or perhaps eking out a meagre
existence with unemployment dOles,
say that there is nothing to prevent
the Kaiser S sons from going TO
work. They are all able-bodied. As
for the Kaiser himself, they are
willing no should have some of his
private property back, but deem it
rather absurd that there should be
an argument for five years as to
his 'rights, - after his vanity
brought Il catastrophe to Germany
and after hc had fled in terror to
/ Holland.
