Mrs. Radovich’s body was found hanging from a beam in her home Near Silverdale, on Monday, There ‘were no outward appearances of sui- cide. The coroner's jury took the view at first that Radovich had killed his wife, then’ strung her up. He admitted they had had a quarrel in which she sustained a blackened eye.

Gage, of Sil- werdale, after funeral services had wen held for Mrs. Radovich and the ody was about to be buried, to ascertain what other evidence an ~ autopsy might disclose. They found the woman's neck broken, and de- Clared that death was due to self- _ destruction.
