The fact 4 Mrs, Fox and Mrs. 8, A. Eery, who was with the child shortly before it was attacked with convulsion absent. from the city, left the detectives little to work upon. They did find, however, that several stories are told of what was going just prior to ite fatal illness. These stories are being run down to learn the truth The Fox girl, « beautiful, bright, attractive ebild, was playing about the } ¢ at 1504 Rainier av. lang y afternoon, Mrs 8. A, Thursé Esry, who lives in an adjotuing flat, entered the Fox apartments and was with Dellroy for about 20 mine utes, when she returned the child to its parents. Child Seemed Nervous. Mrs. Esry remarked that the child seemed nervous. Mrs. Fox replied that she believed Dellroy to be han- ary and sleepy. She placed the baby in a high chair and prepared for It a bowl of milk and crackers, The child had been cating but a few minutes when it screamed for its mother. in less than two hours the child was dead autopsy performed by Drs, 8. F. Wiltsie and C. E. Hoye showed traces of potson in the stom- ach, and a subsequent examination ld dered by Coroner F. M. Carroll, was made by Osseward & Rubenstein. Unmistakable tra of arsenic were present, The milk and crackers, of which the child had been eating, revealed no traces of poison Following the autopsy Mr. and Mrs. Fox took the body to Zillah, Wash. near North Yakima, where it was buried. The parents of the dead child are now at North Yaki- ma. It is not known when they will return to Seattle. Mrs. Esry Departs. Mrs. 8S. A. Esry and her 4-year-old son left for Waitsburg, in Walla Walla county, Monday night. It is not known when they will return to Seattle. Detectives. Clark and Adama found L. F. Pridemore, a brother of Mrs. Fox, at the home last night. Pridemore was present when Dell- roy died and subsequently made an investigation himself, He stated last night he was much mystified. Pridemore told the detectives he could think of no possible place where the child could secure the deadly drug. Mrs, Esry is certain that Dellroy could secure no poison in her apart- ments,” said be. “When the child was seized by convulsions, M Esry rushed back into her apart- nts to see if Deliroy bad gotten id of some pills or tablets. Mrs. Esrv said the child got none of her pills. Mrs. Esry Excit In the excitement, while Dellroy was in convulsions, Mrs. Esry, was somewhat excited. She said she had not let the baby from her arms. I guess she did not mean that, as Dellroy had been to the grocery with her. The child ate a sweet- cake in the grocery, but that must have been all right, because Mra, Psry ate half of it.” On the day of its death Mrs. Bery took the child to show to Dr. A. D. Wilson, who had just moved into the building. Detective Clark talked with Dr. Wilson last night, who. stated that the child had been play- n the halls near his ofifee.
