Allison Bowen, United States Deputy Conaul-General at Paris, was a passenger on board the American liner Bt. Louts that arrived at her pler from Southampton and Cherbourg to-day. Mr. Bowen was in Paris when Mrs. Helen Gore, the American, was shot dead in the apartments of Rydzewsks, the Russian musician, who was infatu- ated with her, H Whether Mrs, Gore was murdered or whether she was shot acoldentally is still a mystery that the Paris police ani al-General In Paris When questioned about the Mr. | Bowen sald: “At the time of the tragedy I was !!l in bed, otherwise I would have had full charge of tho investigation. Ae it was I kkopt myself informed as to the develop- ments. From what 1 could learn the general impression among the American colony 1s that Mrs, Gore met with foul play. Of course my Information came tn al rounfabout way while I was in my sick-)| room. \ “It stands to reason, however, that! Mrs, Gore could hardly have received the wound that Killed her in the manner described by the Russian musician, who says that Mrs, Gore was on a couch, | that the revolver was on a table on top, of a newspaper and that as he drew the newspaper toward hiin the revolver fell off, made @ loop as it dropped, the trig- ger hitting the floor and discharging the bullet that killed Mrs, Gore. “That hardly seems credible, although it Is a possible explanation of the trag- edy. The Americans in Paris and Mrs. friends do not accept the Rus- 's story as the true explanation to case ‘! the tragedy.” (Mr. Bowen was forced to return to this country because of his ill-health, He !s to go immediately under the care of rhedical specialists, and hopes to re- turn to Paris in a few months. An expert in iuternational law, accompanied Mr. Bowen, sald: “In the absence of other witnesses the story, of the Russian moat be be- feved. ‘Ther 18 none to contradict.
