HE TOOK 111S OWN' LIFE.
Tbut Wus the Verdict of Coroner's Jury
In New ton Case.
Coroner J. A. Kelley yesterday visited
the house at 219 North llromley uv
nue, West Side, where Danford II.
Newton committed suicide Thursday
and empaneled a" jury to .ake an
investigation.
The testimony of Ira D. Newton, a
son of the dead man; Mrs. Newton, the
widow, and A. W. Musgrave, of the
druif tlrm of Jenkins & Wusgrave, was
the most Important. The members of
the family told about the deceased's
visit to the house. He did not live with
his wife on account of his drinking
habits, but he resolved on Jan. 31 of the
present year to quit liquor and ar
rangements were being made for a
reconciliation. He came to the house
about 2 o'clock and spoke pleasantly
with Mrs. Newton nnd went to the
kitchen three times and took a drink"
of water each time. His wife heard
him take a bottle from his pocket and
place It on the Iron sink. She thought
he was taking liquor. The last time he
went for a drink he raised the bottle
to his lips and took a long draught. He
staggered to the front room after tak
ing the drug and expired In a half
hour. Dr. Llndaburg was sent for, but
Newton was beyond recovery. Mrs.
Newton prepared a cup of mustard
water as an emetic.
Ira I). Newton, the son, swore that his
father used aconite us a sedative for
his heart. He often heard him say he
would end his life If any serious matter
ever troubled him. Other witnesses tes
tilled to the same thing. The verdict of
the Jury was to the effect that New
ton's death was the result of drinking
aconite, a poison, In quuntlty sufficient
to produce death.
The funeral will be held Monday
afternoon nt 2 o'clock. Rurlal services
will be conducted at the house by Rev.
L. C. Floyd, pastor of the Simpson
Methodist Episcopal church. Inter
ment will be made In Washburn Street
cemetery.
