Tnf+i—frT*ti"r * -* CHARGES BODY WAS MUTILATED Allegheny Sheriff Intimates Wound Was Made After Official Autopsy Pittsburgh, Oct 17.—-Sheriff Wil liam S. Haddock, of Allegheny coun ty, yesterday sent to Chairman Ken yon, of the Senate committee investi gating the steel strike, a letter in which he practically charges that the body of Fannie Sellens, an or ganizer for the United Mine Work ers, who was shot and killed August 26 at West Natrona, where there was a strike of miners, had been delib reately mutilated after the official autopsy to make It appear she was shot in the back. The death of the woman has at tracted much attention because of charges made by labor union mon that she was murdered by deputy sheriffs. The coroner's verdict de clared she was killed during a riot. The miners charge she was shot to death while protecting children from the sheriff's deputies. The body was exhumed last Monday at the in stance of a relative and yesterday labor men sent to Chairman Kenyon an affidavit signed by two physicians averring that there was a gunshot wound in the back. The coroner's finding made no mention of such a wound. Some labor leaders have referred to the Sellens case as an example of the alleged methods used by certain corporations to defeat workers who strike for higher wages and better working conditions.
