H0USEB0AT SUICIDE
THEORY STRONGER
Inquest in Death of Sylvia
Rochkin Is Set for
Monday.

Homicide squad detectives. under the
direction of Sergt H. K. Wilson, con-
tinued today their investigation into
the mysterious death of Sylvia Roch-
kin. 23-year-old artists model, found
strangled with a bathrobe cord early
yesterday on a houseboat docked in
Little River, near Rosslyn, Va.
Although the investigators had
reached no definite conclusion, pend
ing coroners inquest set for II O'Clock
Monday morning, they were inclined
to the theory the young woman hanged
herself from a ceiling rafter of the
boats gallery.
A coroner's jury was sworn in over
Miss Rochkins body in the District
Morgue this morning. The jury con-
sists of F. E. Huxley, William Fitzhugh,
Clifford Alder. George c. Dalglish,
Ernest Jasper and Andrew Peterman.
Typewriter Statement.
The suicide theory was strengthened,
according to Detective Sergt. John G.
Dalglish, by a four page typewriter
statement made at police headquarters
last night by George B. Speidel, 30
year old city postoffice clerk and anna
teur artist, who reported he found Miss
Rochkin hanging from nail driven
into the rafter.
Additional strength was given this
theory, it was pointed out, by state
ments of the dead woman's relatives
that her sister Beatrice hanged herself
in May, 1928, at the home of another
sister, Mrs. Mollie Goldsinger, in New
York City. Beatrice was 20 years old
at the time, it was said.
Speidel's statement was made during
three-hour grilling by Dalglish and
Capt. Bernard w. Thompson, acting
chief of detectives. In all essential par
ticulars the statement tailed with the
story told by Speidel at the time of his
arrest by seventh precinct police.

Rochkin, which began last May, when
he met her in the Corcoran Art Gal

OKLAHOMA CITY, September "a
The bitter legal fight between Lew H.
Wentz, Ponca City oil millionaire and
Gov. William H. Murray over the Re
publican seat on the Oklahoma High
way Commission has ended in favor of
Wentz.
Seven justices of the State Supreme
Court concurred late yesterday in hold
ing as invalid Murray's order ousting
Wentz and naming Miss Maude o.
Thomas to replace him.
The Supreme Court opinion, written
by Justice Robert Hefner, denied the
power of the Governor to remove a
member of the commission and upheld
the law of 1929 creating the present
three member commission.
The law provides for appointment of
commissioners by the Governor by and
with the consent of the Senate. Re-
moval is provided only for cause in
a court of competent Jurisdiction or by
the Legislature.
Wentz, Republican, appointed for
six-year term April l, 1929, by Gov.

even if the court held against Miss
Thomas, there was no way for it to put
