Al though tho pollco still hold to the theory that tho body found In tho basement of tho Eureka-street house Is that of Eva Swan, former school teacher at Paso Robles and recently employed as stenographer In San Francisco, tho Identification was shaken this afternoon by Mrs. Har ry Weir. Mrs. Weir who Reopa the roomlng-houso nt which Eva Swan lived, believes that the detective? are mistaken. She bases hor belief on the clothing found In the trunk in the basement of the house whom the body was discovered. Tho wisps of hair found in the trunk bonoath tho concrete corres pond with the color of Miss Swan's hair, Mrs. Weir declares and the col or of tho hair on tho head of the girl, though stained from the ncld poured over it nfter death, is dissim ilar.
