Prevalent Opinion Regarding theKcninore Hotel Tragedy

lit Conclusion o ii T-

incut irovolicj uritleijni xvricuimIn the Comlnct of tlie CJINC Sirsiloninc lrovl c With Counsel

Today appears to have been one f ret-rospect in the Ayersfionine tragedywhich for over a has held the constant attention of the entire communityThe d te tives are resting apparentlyawaiting a second breath as it werepreiwuratory to again taking up the workof unraveling tire mystery which according to District Attorney Gould is onlydeepened by the statement that was madeby Mrs Bonine It is confidently assertedby those who have carefully followed thecase that it would have been an impossi-bility for the shooting to have occurred-in tile manner described in Mrs Boninesconfession Whether she is trying toshield some one else or has some otherreason for withholding the true story ofthe affair is not at present known but itcan be confidently asserted that the mat-ter will not be dropped at the presenttime and that every aspect of the casewill be thoroughly considered and inves-tigated

In response to a telegram Major Syl-

vester this morning received a messagefrom the authorities at Strasburg Vastating that on Tuesday night last

Bonine stopped in that town at theChalybeate Hotel in company with D KSmith and sold a bill of goods to N BSchmitt Smith registered at thebut Bonine did not Mr Bonines nameIs Joel and the message gives Robert asthe name of the one who stopped at thehotel in Strasburg but the police considerthat this is only an error and that ilrBonines alibi Is thoroughly established

MUCH CRITICISM HEARDConsiderable criticism is heard regard

ing the abrupt manner in which the inadjourned without hearing sev-

eral witnesses whose testimony woudhave shed considerable additional light onthe case

Oce of these is the colored boyWalter to whom Sirs Bonine says she

gave the revolver Walter has turnedout to be Walter Hammond formerly awaiter and general houseman in the hotelwho lives at 22 McCullough Street Thisboy was the mysterious stranger whomthe police spirited away from police headquarters Sunday afternoon He not onlydenied that he had been given a pistolby Mrs Bonine but so thoroughly described the weapon which he had seen inher room and which he had asked her togive him as to leave little doubt in the

the detectives that the weaponAyers was killed was the one

had formerly been seen in Mrspossession So important was

this witness considered that extreme pre-

cautions were taken to prevent him talkingto reporters and for a time advisa-bility cZ him up as a Governmentwitness he will play-a most important part trial whenthe case reaches the there can be-

little doubtThe police are exerting every endeavor-

to positively establish the ownership ofthe revolver but are meeting with smallsuccess as but Utile care is exercised bydealers in keeping the records of the lessexpensive grade of weapons sold Detec-tive Sergeant Weedoh discovered yester-day that while the barrel and cylinder-of the pistol was of 32 calibre the stockand handle had been made for a SScalibre weapon On removing the rubbergrip he fouad the number 25 H instead ofthe number 5ffl which was stamjjed onthe other portions of the pistol

Following up this discovery a telegramwas sent to the Harrington Richardsonfactory at Worcester Mass The fellowIng reply was received

We cannot to whom the revolverwas sold

The Hammond boy is but one of the sev-

eral witnesses that have been consideredImportant by the police who were not

an opportunity to appear before thejury The Coroner seems to

have taken the position that antSevidence was before the

to warrant Mrs Bonine being held and evidenced more or less In-

difference as to the other points in thevase The greater of the exami-nation of witnesses j y other persons than the Coroner and DeputyCoroner Glazebrook appeared to haveusurped the duties of the presiding officerat the hearing or Coroner Nevitt had in-

structed Dr Gfatrebrook to relieve him ofthe tedious nature of the

FRICTION IXThere appears to been consider-

able friction in the handling of the caseand jealousies were evident on sideto detriment of theIt is that there was a of

the part of Drwho as Deputy believed that aslur was being upon his ability inengaging Dr Schaeffer to perform thework which he considered himself thor-oughly capable of performing The policehave also severely arraigned the Coroners Office for the haste that was evi-denced in moving the body before anyof the detectives had had an opportunity-to make a survey of the conditions

The detectives assert that they weregreatly handicapped in their1 work by thisaction and are loud in their ofcondemnation

Late this afternoon Attorneys DouglasDouglas were engaged as counsel in

the case by Mr Bonine and the entirematter he announced was placed in theirhands Mr Bonine said that he would notinterfere in their conduct of the case andthat4je would be guided entirely by theirjudgment They immediately went to the

where they consulted with Mrs Bon
