NEW YORK, TUESDAY, “OCTOBER | 27, 1903 ARTIST'S MODEL WAS PERHAPS POISONED Coroner Jackson and His Physician, Dr. O'Hanlon, Conducting a Searching Scrutiny Into the Strange Death of Maude Blanche Hayes. Mother of the Young Woman Declares That Her Daughter Had Been in IIl Health Ever Since Attack By Brew- er’s Son, Said to Be Her Husband. From the mysterious actions of Coroner Jackson and his physician, O'Hanlon, it is inferred that they have discovered evidence of a crime in| the death of Maude Blanche Hayes. A physician who was called in after her death at No. 273 West Thirty-sixth street last Sunday night said that the cause of death was heart disease, but it is plain that the Coroner does not adhere to this theory. Dr. O'Hanlon has received strict orders to keep what information he possesses to kimself, consequently he is silent about the result of an au- topsy he performed this afternoon. But, if there had been nothing dis- covered to controvert the theory that the girl died a natural death, he would have said so. The autopsy was performed ‘at Ahearn’s undertaking establishment at No, 355 West Thirty-eighth street, and the time consumed in it was two hours. Dr. O’Hanlon took away part of the brain and several of | tle vital jprgans when he left. He went with them direct to Prof. Witthaus to have them chemically ‘examined, which indicates that he found traces of poison. These is.4ittle reason to. believe that the girl. killed herself. Her _ mother says that there was no poison in the room and Maude had not been out of the house ‘for nearly a week. Coroner Jackson is convinced | that there are features connected with the death of the girl that hava been kept secret. ‘ The police and Coroner to-day are seeking the son of a wealthy brewer, who 1s said to have been engaged to the young woman, and who Is alleged by the mother of the girl to have beaten her while under the influence of liquor several weeks ago. Mhe mother, Mrs. Margaret Hayes, delieves her daughter's death was in- irectly duo to this beating. “My was under his care for two weeks. I belleve the reason for his attack was because my daughter had threatened to sue him for breach of promise,” Mrs. Hayes said to-day that unless some one came to her ald her daughter would have to be buried in Potter's Field, She is practically penniless, and every appeal she has made to her rela- Ulves and friends has met with refusal, daughter never been well a single} The girl's body is now in an under- Gay since; said Mrs. Hayes, “and she|taker’s shop in West ‘hirty-elghth complained constantly of pains in the| street, where it will remain until the back of her head, where she had re- ceived a heavy blow. “This young man, who is the son of a qillionaire brewer, called wt our lodgings, then at No. 304 West Thirty- fourth street, one morning when I was out. When I returned I found my daughter lying on a couch and almost unconscious.

Bpeck, the music publisher, had felt the mag- netism of the healer’s touch, and he told him in al} serlousness that if he demonstrated his talents generally as he did specifically in his own cage, why then he—the healer—might call upon him—the music pudlisher—for any old thing he had to give.
