DR. MOM FEARED HE
WOULD BE MURDERED
Employes Tell of Alleged
Threats Against His Life
Made by Hostler
PROVIDENCE. R. I., Sept. 9.-In view
of tho revelations from employes at Dr.
C. Franklin Mohr's Newport estate,
Montpeller, of alleged threats mado by
Victor Brown, discharged negro hostler,
against Doctor Mohr and the employes
there, tho police felt today that their case
against Mrs. Elizabeth T. Mohr, widow of
the slain physician and the three negroes
bring held, was greatly strengthened.
JohnMcAndrews, superintendent of the
Newport estate, Is'allegefr tb have Btated
that Doctor Mohr told him, Martha Wil
son, thu housekeeper, and Julia Duffy, a
servant, tho day before he was shot to
death, of his fears that he would bo the
victim of a murder plot by his wife.
According to McAndrews, Doctor Mohr
talked over threats made by Brown and
his fears concerning his wife for nearly
an hour, showing much concern for his
life. It also was developed from em
ptoyes that Brown was ordered dismissed
by the doctor, following the discovery
that the hostler was in conversation with
Mrs. Mohr In the stable, three weeks prior
to the killing of Doctor Mohr and tho
wounding of Emily Burger.
While employes of her former husband
were relating these damaging points,
which piobably will be used in the State's
case against her, Mrs. Mohr stood weep
Ing bitterly over the neck of a favorite
saddio horse In a nearby pasture. This
was her first visit to tho Newport estate
since tho tragic death of her husband.

action against tho Filbert Paving and
Construction Company, according to the
article. This suit. It Is pointed put, re
sulted In the setting aside of a contract
between the McNIchol concern and the
city for repairs to asphalt streets occu
pied by street railways for the year 1910.
The courts found that a conspiracy ex
isted between the officials of the city and
tho company, and, charging the contract
ing firm nnd these officials with fraud,
enjoined the payment of further sums to
the company and ordered the repayment
of a largo amount to the City Treasury.
The caso was appealed and came before
tho Bupreme Court In 1912, when the
former decision was sustained, the court
asserting that "the bid was manipulated
with a skill and In a manner that would
do credit to thoso who were "trained In
such matters." Both courts found that
"tho officers of tho city gave orders for
work In amounts exceeding 100 yards and
not exceeding BOO yards, with Intent to
favor tho contractor."
Tho rest of the article shows how the
city officials took advantage of the op
portunity to add to the amount of work
to be done at a high price and to lessen
the work to bo done at a lower price,
thus favoring the contractor to the extent,
of many thousands ot dollars, and Inci
dentally relieving him from a flve-ycax
guarantee contract.
