The little poodle dog was the pet of Mrs. Kate Barry, a widow, living at No. 409 Kast Bev- enteenth Street, and when she disap- peared on May 12 he was left to guard the place, A few days after Mrs. Barry disap- peared neighbors heard a dog whin- ing. The door was locked, but the crying of the dog prompted a woman to break a glass panel in the door. Lean from days of fasting the dog nevertheless set up a deflant barking when an effort was made to enter. Through the broken panel food was thrown to “Toodles,” and for a month he has waited expectantly at the door for his mistress to return, Finally Mri see her cousin, Mrs. Barry, and when she learned of her disappearance she notified the police. At the Bureau for the Identification of the Unidentified Dead sho learned from Lieut. Grant Williams that the body of a woman answering the description of Mrs, Barry had been picked up in the lower bay. The body was held at the Morgue for ten days and then buried in Pot- ter's Field. The only article found on the woman which had been kept for identification was a buh of keys. To make certain of the identity, Detective Kenny went to the house this morning, One of the keys was for the door which “Toodles” stood guarding and he growled fiercely as the detectives entered, but when con- vinced of tbe friendly intentions of the detective he capitulated and went away with Mrs, Collins. Mrs, Barry's erlatives will have the body removed from Potter's Field. ——_. CHICAGO WHEAT AND CORN MARKET, WHBAT, Wriday Net clone, Open.
