San Francisco, Sept. 24. 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. The report goes on to say that the
internal organs aro decayed. Both
legs aro sawed through near tho an
klo, the partial amputation was
probably performed after death, tho
physicians think.
Tho report does not give tho prob
able cause of death. Tho'ro is no
mention mado of any operation hav
ing been performed.
