What Ills Hi other Has to Suy.
Simon Itclles, a brother of the dead
man, wus Interviewed yesterday after
noon by a Tribune reporter and he
made the following statements: Silas
licllcs, his brother, had often said that
he did not like to drink beverages thut
were set before him by his wife, afraid
that he might be poisoned. And he
warned him to make sure and have u
post-mortem examination held upon
him when he died. He further stated
that the deceased confided to him that
his wife had taken out Insurance on his
life ugalnst his will. The policies were
In the Metropolitan Life Insurance
company and nmounted to $400. On ac
count of this Insurance the deceased
had fears for his safety. The first policy
was taken out about thirteen years
ngo.
The brother then went on and told
the following story:
On Tuesday, Eeb. 20, when the de
censed came home In the evening he
found his vvif missing und her clothes
and the Insurance policies gone too.
Edward, the son, went to Levi llelles'
house in Mooslc to board and the de
ceased came to board with him. He
was in good health, and remarked that
he never felt better In his life. Last
Tuesday he went to Mooslc to see his
wife and ask her to return to live with
him. She was stopping with her step
father, Hugh Sheridan. She did not
come back with him, but Wednesday
morning, when he went to his house,
he found her present. He went away
and had his dinner at Simon's house,
and left before supper time to go back
to his wife.
He Was Praying.
She greeted him pleasantly and pre
pared his supper, after which he went
to Mooslc to get his son, Edward, to
return to live home again. The boy re

started home. It was about 7 o'clock
and he was seen on the streets of
Mooslc In apparently sound and
healthy condition, die trot home ut
