Skipper Killed When He Fell Into Hold—Tale of Battle With Gale Is Har- rowing One. Philadelphia, Nov. 24.—Eight sur- vivors of the wrecked feur-masted | schooner Perry Setzer, rescued off | Cape Hatteras, were brought to this city today with a tale of hardships and torms in one of which thelr' captain, Arthur-J, Wilson, of Fair | Haven, Mass,, was killed. The report that he lost his life as a result of a collision with an un- Identified steamer was untrue, mem- bers of the crew safd. He was killed they sald, when he fell into a hola and was crushed by railroad tles that shifted as the water-logged schooner rolled in the heavy sea. The collislon with the steamer oc- | curred, members of the %erew sald, after they had been taken off by the tanker Solana, which brought them | to this port.

King and assistants investigating the mys- terious death of Mrs. Addle Sheats- ley, 60. Her body, nearly cremated, | was found in the furnace of the housa a week ago by her husband, | the Rev. C. V. Sheatsley. They also | discovered & number of finger- | marks, This afternoon experiments, by which authorities expect to show | that carbon-monoxide gas would kill | a breathing animal within the fur- nace, will be conducted, Mr. King | sald. Guinea pigs will be placed in | the firebox, The guinea pig experiment is ex- pected to bear out the report of | Chemist C. F. Long, that Mrs, Sheatsley did not breathe after her hody entered the furnace, Mr. | Long came to this conclusion after | examination of blood taken from the victim's lungs fafled to reveal | trace of carbon-monoxide polsoning. Had she breathed, he contended, her | blood would have become saturated | with the poison. | The bit of tissue was found on a | step leading to the cellar, and the | supposed hlood stains were noted on | the ashestos wrapping of a heat conduit just above the furnace | door, Mr. King said. Both speci- mens will be examined by Chemist Long and Dr. H. M. Brundage, a pathologist, in an effort to deter- | mine if they cawe from a human dy. Dr. King sald this morning he | was more firmly convinced than ever that Mrs. Sheatsley did not en- ter the furnace voluntarily, Devel- opments have proved to him con- clusively, he said, that she did not commit sutelde, after becoming vio- lently insane, which is the expressed conviction of the Rev. Mr, Sheatsley. The prosecutor, however, said he| was encouraged by developments, A resolution adopted yesterday by members of the Rev. Mr. Sheatsley's congregation contained n prayer for divine guidance, “that the real cul- prit in the baffling case will be dis- covered and brought to justice." A declaration of unqualified con- fidence In the integrity and nobility of character of the Rev. Mr, Sheat- | sley also was contained in the reso- | lution, as well as an expression of | aympathy for the minister and his| family. | The Rev. Mr. Sheatsley last Wed- nesday told Mr. King he was of the conviction that his wife committed sujcide by casting herself into the gurnace after becoming violently in- sane. He has not admitted to au-| thorities a reversal of his conviction, | although Prosecutor King and others working on the case declare they are | confident she did not commit suicide. | The prosecutor has as a basis for his | conviction the report of Chemist C. F. Long, which shows she did not breathe after her body entered the firehox. Ald of the Sheatsley family fnelud- | ing the minister and his four ¢ dren will not bs availabie 1o the| Jprosecutor in his investigation until Wednesday. The Rev. Sheatsley in a telephone conversation from Paris, Ohlo, said they will not return here until then, Previously they had | planned to come today. | Among those expected to be ex- amined today by the prosecutor is| Simon A.
