YERY UNSATISFACTORY. An Inquest Held on the Body of Alice Montgomery. 1t Is Fot Discovered Who Was the Author of Her Ruin, Sor How the Strychnine Got into the Dottle of Medicine, . At Rogerson’s undertaking establishment on wWest Madison street crday afterncon, Coroner Matson and six_jurymen examined into {he case of Alice Montromery, the young woman who dicd at tho Sheldon Court "Hotel under such mysterious circumstances on the gt of Suturday, April9. As will be remem- Bered, she was emplosed as a_ dining-room girl st the Ere and Far Infirmary, corner of Peoria_and Adams streets. She went to tho Sheldon Court hotel on the night in question, 2nd, shortly after belng shown to her room, was found in the hall suffering terribly from spasms, i which shedied. In her rocom were found medicines which she had evidently procured to produce un thortion, and the post-mortem ex- P mination showed ber to bave been preznant. But it alsoshowed that ber death was caused by strscbnine. This deadly drug was found fnlarge quantities in the bottle of medicine which she Fept in her room, and_which was supposed to contain only Huid extract of eryot and water. The problen to solve. therefore, was this: How ¢id the stryehnine get nto that bottle? The first witness examined wus Sophia Carl- som, JEE YOUNG WOMAN WHO ROOMED WITH ALICE st the Exe and Ear Infirmary, but her testimony #id not tbrow any new lixht on the matier. Sho Said Alice left the institution about 3 o'clock in tho afternoon of April 9 without saying whero ghe was FOIDK. CXCCPL Lhat it was o visit & ludy {riend on Luke sirect. She took with her a tmall satchel filied with underclothing and pleces of cloth, and also borrowed 315 from an- of the place, so that- in all she or $30. , Decensed bud never told < 0 Wwas it any trouble, and notning ould ever make witness believe that her room- mate had intended to commit sufeide. Deceased ped bevn keeping company with a' young maa pamed George Giddings. Russell Burber, the drug-clerk who prepared {me medicines found among the etlects of the dead girl, testitied_that the preseription was Lrougat to t K 's drug-store by a youn womun (Alice Montzomery, of coursel, bout 3% o'clock that. Saturday nfternoon, and that She claimed to bave cupicd the prescription her- self frem one written by Dr. Donald Fraser. The prescripioncalled for (o ounces of the fluid extract of ergot, with fourouncesof water, and for fiftecn grains of santonine in a capsule. Witness thouht flfteen grains of santonincalto- rether too much for onc dose, 5o he put up only fhree grains made up into three capsules. Tho young woman had appeared perfectly composed. ‘Ssmuel Sharp propristor of the Sheldon House, testified that Alice came _to his place about 9 o'clock Saturday night, and, without giving her pame, engaged a room from him for the might. Betore reuring toher room she asked for 1 glassof water and a_tablespoon, which were piventoher. Witness did not see ber arain alive, but heard her screams in the hall wacn she was dyins. 5 DE. JONN A. ROBINSON testified that he chanced to be in the Sheldon House on the night inquestion. and sbortly after o 9 oclock was atracted by screams 1o the spot where the _young woman wes Iving in spasms. He asked her 1f she bnd swallowed unything. and she answered yes,but when he asked ber what It was she shovk her bead and smd nothing. Witness sent tothe young womun's room _and had the medi- cines already mentioned brought to him. He waa satisied that there was strychniz in the erzot mixture, and, after consulting with Dr, Knox, be administered cther and bromide of potush o the patient. She died, however,1ina tew minutes. Dr. J. M. Hutchings, who, with Dr. Tucker, ‘made the pust-mortem eXamination, testified as twofts results, what these results were having already been stated. CORONER 3fATSON now gave in some evidence, which, though it did not tend te sbow where the strychnine came from, was at least new and very interesting. The Coroner sald that some four or five days =fter the death of Atice Montgomery be re- ceived an envelope containing two letters and 1wo photographs. The euvelope was received by him at bis office, the name and address bemg K:Iu(ed with pen and ink in large and ndsome [etters. One of the photographs was that of Alice Montgomery. and the other had been identified as that of George Giddings, the young man spoken of Ly Soplia Carlson. The Coroner showed the letters ena photos, One of the letters read as follows, being written in 8 hand evideutly disguised: OrriCER RixGrose: luclosed isafetter written by Atice Montgomery to the xuthor of her trou- bles fur Van dinchen, 5#) West Madison street. 1t is written by Alice herself, and was found in her trunk ot the Eye and Ear Intirmary, coroer of Adsms_and Peoria strects, where Alice worked. Her writing can be identified by her mother, and will throw some light on the mys- tery of ber death. Yours truly, MARY BROWN. 1t would appear that the writer had at tirst in- tended eending the letter to Officer Ringrose, but had changed her (or his) mind. The other letter ran thus: ALICE MONTGOMERY’S LETTER. CHICAGO, April 2,1881.—Dear Joe: I called on Dr. Fraser this afterncon. He says 1 am four months gone. He performed an operation on me and {s golng to pertorm another opera- tion on me next Sunday. And then, he says, I will be all right. I pave him the §75 dollars. He eays I must bring him the other $25 before he operates again., Will you please send me tho rest of the money 50 as I can give it to him on Sunday. Yours atfection~ ately. ALICE MONTGOXERT. The Coroner said he had turned the letters over to Lieut. Keating, who was present at the nquest to tell what his investigation had shown. LIEUT. KEATING e#aid there was 8 woman named Brown at the Eyeand Ear Infirmary, but she was a Swede and unable to write. She knew mnothing about the letters, mor did any ono elsc in the institution. The Van "Minchen referred to in such a singular way was a diamond broker who had boarded with his wife ut No. 840 West Madison street. and had doneé business at 106 ‘Washington street. But some two weeks before « the death of Alice Montgomery he left this city for the East. ~Georre Giddings, though, left this city only three days after the zirl's death. and ghdcpurture had been very sudden. For sixyenrs e had worked at & wagon-shop corner of Mon- roe and Clinton streets, where he was well liked, buthe bad all_at once conceived the idea of olng 1o New York, where be went, bag and bag- 2, & Eoroner Matson said he aid not know how tho dead girl's trunk bad been opened. for he had posscssed hiuiself of the key soon after she died. ¢ letter with her name sigucd to it, though, was surelyin her handwriting, forit carrespond- ed exactly with the handwriting of the prescrip- tion taken to Kraft's drug-store. DR. FRASER was also present at the inquest and was labor- ing under tho greatest excitement and merv- ousness. He declared positively that he bad “never gcen Alico Montgomery and that e knew nothing whatever about the case lurther than what he had beard and rend. The jury simply tound that the girl had come tober ‘death by means of strychoine, tuken by .Berself from a bottle supposed Lo have con- 1ained ergot, which medicine she had procured 8t Kraft’s druz-store. They furtber found that the druggist was fn no way accountaole for tho Preseuce of the strychnine in the ergot. £0 the mystery of Alice Moutgomery's aeath 182 mystery still. ————— FACTS ABOUT FURS. .
