Assistant District Attorney Osborne Is authority for the statement that he knew where Patrick purchased the drugs said by Jones to have been ad ministered. After he consulted with Captain McCluskey, detectives were sent to follow up this seeming clue, which It Is believed was furnished by Jones in the cross examination of Wed nesday, which was supplemental to the confession. From the fact that Dr. Curry, Rice's physician, noticed no odor In the death chamber upon hi arrival there on the night of Rice's death, it Is surmised that neither ether nor chloroform was used by Patrick, as the odor of both these drugs la very pungent and re main for a long time after adminis tration.

Efforts were being made this even ing to determine the exact condition of the lungs of the murdered man. At torney Osborne declared that the autopsy had revealed a state of affairs con sistent with smothering. RAILROAD OFFER3 PENSIONS.
