A Pot Mortem Examination, tbe Coronrr's Inquest and Even a Spe rial Inqu'ry Fail to Coiit'ik Tlx hi OtluTwfc There Is Prevetleat for Believing He Might Have Volun tarily Taken IIU Own Lift- Ingeni ous TlH-ury Advanced by Dan P. Siuyibe. Notwithstanding the fact that a coroner's Jury, a physician and two attorneys have all examined the body, taken the testimony of several witnesses, and declared that David Wolf, an allottee on the Umatilla reservation, took his own life, many Indiana are dissatisfied and believe the man was murdered. The Indian was found dead Sunday morning in a cell at the government school, his body hanging by the neck, suspended by means of a large silk handkerchief from a grating. The coroner's In quest was held in the afternoon, and a verdict of death by suicide returned. Upon request of the Indians. Sup erintendent J. J. McKoin aiul County Coroner T. M. Henderson. Dr. R. E. Rlngo held a post mortem examina tion the duy following and pronounc ed the case one of suicide by strangu lation. But the murmur of dissatis faction continued to spread, and yes terday afternoon Former District At torney T. G. Halley and Attorney Dan P. Smythe visited the tepee of Wolf and made further Investigation. "There Is not the least question in my mind." said Mr. Halley. "but that the Indian committed suicide by hanging. Such a deed Is not without precedent on the reservation. About 10 years ago a squaw killed herself in almost the same manner iu which Wolf met his death. She went to a barn and with u, piece of rope for a noose hanged herself from a harness peg. She placed her head through the noose, and then catching her unkles with her hands held her feet t.oai the floor until unconscious from strangulation. In' the county Jail a few years ago. an aged German far mer under arrest for attempting to kill his wife, strangled himself to death by means of a pair of Buspend ers tied tn the bars of his cell. "It is not uncommon for Indians to suicide. Last summer Jim Joshua shot himself." Wolf was taken In a drunken con dition before the superintendent lute Saturday night, by Joe Parr and Frank Mclntyre. two mixed bloods. j Wolf was bound and one hand was ! bleeding from a small cut. Parr and I Mclntyre testified that the Indian j came to Parr's house and broke out I a window light with his fist, cutting his hand, and that they caught him. i There is said to be bad blood existing between Parr and some of sthe In dians, and the tribesmen suspect him of being responsible in some manner for the death of Wolf. Mr. Smythe has an explanation as to the probable cause of Wolf com mitting suicide. "Wolf was drunk when locked up at the schnoL" said Smythe. "When he awoke and found himself In confinement with blood on his hand. I believe he thought he had killed some one while In a drunken freniy. aod filled with re morse and fear of the law took his own life." IX 1 M'MMliaaTT8 2 I!'
