Painter commit suicide 1 That is the question everybody here is asking. Painter carried $1,178,000—perhaps more—on his life, most of which was taken out in the past four months. His death was unexpected and mysterious. One more mys tery has been added to it by the disappearance of the dead man’s heart, stomach and kidneys, forwarded from this city to the Johns Hopkins University for analysis. Painter’s death, so the life insurance companies suspect, was produced by an overdose of chloral, which overwhelmed him when he toppled over from a ferryboat ostensibly on the way to his factory. i Those most free to talk of his death seem inclined to one of two theories, suicide or insanity, and the suicide theorists seem to be in the majority. But there are many who scout at either of these opinions and steadfastly maintain that his death was purely accidental. Inquest Awaits Analysis tn the meantime expert physicians and chemists in Baltimore are ready to analyze the brain, heart, liver, lungs, stomach, and other organs of the dead man to determine whether they contain evidence of poison or disclose any other condition to explain his death. Coroner C. D. Abbott, of Duval County, is holding in abeyance an inquest over the dead man. A jury has been impaneled, but has gone no further than to view Painter’s body. An autopsy was performed by four physicians, two of whom were acting at the instance of the Painter family, one for the State and the fourth called in by the others. But the body was dissected before the Coroner had seen it and had an opportunity to subpena a jury. Painter met his death in the river at 9:30 o’clock in the morning. His body was recovered and in an undertaker’s morgue by 1 o’clock that afternoon and the autopsy was performed. The removed organs were sealed in a conveyor in the express office and billed to Baltimore before night. The two physicians repre senting the family, Drs. P. C. Perry and John Cay Boyd, went to Baltimore at the same time to be present at the analysis. The shipment was made to Dr. Charles Simon, of Baltimore, but he is in Nova Scotia, and his assistant, Dr. C. E. Haas, notified the Jacksonville authorities that he was instructed to turn the ihipment over to Dr. Charles Glazer, of Johns Hopkins Hospital, who refused to undertake the analysis until Coroner Abbott had i representative present. The Coroner designated a Baltimore at torney to represent him. The beneficiaries named in the policies were either some mem- Continued on Page 2, Column 1. AT LOUISVILLE.

June 3.—Policeman William A vent Jumped off a street car last night during a downpour and started on a run toward his home a block away- Just as he reached his front gate he fell dead of heart fail ure. Attorney Boldly Declares That Police Are Protecting ‘Houses in Our Midst.’ B.L. Bond New Head Of Cotton Crushers Accusations that Atlanta is honey combed with vice and that the police and detective departments deliberate ly protect and encourage these con ditions were made before the Grand Jury of Fulton County by Colonel Thomas B. Felder and Carl Hutche son Wednesday morning. Both men declared they had con clusive proof to establish the truth of their charges, and that they had submitted suf icient evidence to the Grand Jury to indict every one of the 30 or more proprietors of disorderly houses whose names and addresses they had left with the members of the Grand Jury. Felder Boldly Charges Graft. Colonel Felder came out boldly and charged graft of the worst sort and he asserted that he had given the Grand Jury affidavits showing the al leged connections between the police department and the houses of disre pute sworn to by the keepers of the houses themselves, as well as by reputable citizens who were aware of the conditions. It was announced at the outset of the Grand Jury probe that the vice conditions of the city would be the only matter taken up at this time. Foreman Beck said that the jury wap following the charge delivered by Judge W. D. Ellis, who urged the Grand Jury, in view of the Mary Phagan tragedy, thoroughly to Inves tigate the reported spread of vice in the city since the wiping out of the restricted district. Jury After the Real Truth. “We have resolved ourselves into i committee of the whole to follow the instructions of Judge Ellis,” said Mr. Beck. “We propose to sift the mass’ of charges and counter-charges that have been made and get at the real truth, if it is possible. We want to know if vice is protected and if we find that it is. we propose to indict those involved in the disgrace.” Besides Colonel Felder and Mr. Hutcheson, Mayor Woodward, who long has disagreed with Chief Bea vers’ vice policy, and C. C. Jones, owner of the Rex Saloon, .were called before the Grand Jury. The Mayor and Mr. Hutcheson were before the jur> r about an hour each. The Mayor is said to have given the Grand Jury a great amount of information in his possession, much of which has been published in connection with his con troversy with Chief Beavers. Mayor Believes Informants. He told the jurors, however, that practically all of his information was hearsay, and that although he was confident in his own mind of its truth, he was without absolute proof in re spect to the greater part of it. An opportunity to answer the star tling accusations probably will be given Chief Beavers and Chief Lan- ford at the session Wednesday, which will sif at 10 o’clock in the forenoon. Both .were present Tuesday, but there was not lime to take their testimony. Detective John Black, G. C. Febru ary, secretary' to Chief Lanford, and Harry Scott, Pinkerton detective, also were on hand to give testimony in the event they were called upon. The Mayor was questioned closely as to his knowledge of existing vice conditions. He is said to have in formed the grand Jurors that his in formation wag only hearsay. How ever, he gave out what he had heard in full. The Mayor also pointed out to the jurymen possibilities for the existence of such practices. The ex amination of Mr. Woodward contin ued for more than an hour. Colonel Felder was before the Grand Jury for ten minutes. The attorney was not subpenaed to appear at the hearing, but presented himself volun- larily. He is said to have outlined Ms own position in reference to the brib ery charges and also the wholesale Continued on Page 6, Column 4. ATLANTIC BEACH. FLA..
