W F1IKB
Woman Is Hinrged With
Poisoning Husband.
MAN MAY BE AN ACCESSORY
Coroner Detective Says Druggist Ad
mits Selling Arsenic to Mrs. Frieda
Trost of Philadelphia Her Bar
tender Also Held Promises
to Be Sensational Case.
Philadelphia, Aug. 13. Formally ac
cused of instigating a conspiracy to
cause the death of her husband by
poison, but In reality charged with hav
ing given him arsenic, thus bringing
about his death on Tuesday lust, Mrs.
Frieda Trost, who keeps a saloon, was
arraigned before Coroner Knight In the
city hall. She was committed to prison,
the coroner sitting as a committing
magistrate, for a further hearing.
Edward Guenkel, a married man,
was arraigned with Mrs. Trost, whose
bartender he is. lie was also commit
ted for the further hearing, but as a
material witness in the case. Frank
Paul, a coroner's detective and the nutn
who arrested the two, said after the
hearing that the case ngalust Guenkle
will probably be changed to Include
him "as an accessory before the death
of Trost."
This, in brief, is the tato of what
promises to bo one of the most sensa
tional cases here In years. The de
tectives say that Mrs. Trost bought ar
senic, and a druggist admits he sold
her a quantity of the poison. There is a
witness, the polieo sny, who will swear
the woman gave some of the drug to
her husband, and the coroner's physi
cian, after an autopsy, places the cause
of Trost's death as from arsenical poi
soning. Woman Got Arsenic.
The proceedings before Coroner
Knight were brief. Paul, tho detective,
was compelled by William A. Gray, a
former assistant district attorney and
who, with C. M. Bowman, is counsel
for Mrs. Trost, to divulge some of the
evidence he had gathered against her.
Paul said that Mrs. Trost purchased
10 cents' worth of arsenic on Aug. f,
the day before her husband died, at the
drug store of Emll Gover, German
town. Dr. Wadsworth, a coroner's physi
cian, who performed the autopsy on the
body of Trost, ascertained, Paul says,
that he died of arsenical poisoning.
The poison was sealed in an euvel
oi by the druggist and was labeled
properly. It was also marked "Pol
son." "We have a complete case of circum
stantial evidence against Mrs. Trost,"
said Puul after the hearing. "There is
no doubt in my mind that she mur
dered her husband. I believe she was
actuated by two reasons first, she
wanted his estate, vnlned at about
58,000, and, second, she was intimate,
too much so, with Gucnklo.
"I am satisfied to rest the case as it
now stands, and I am willing to di
vulge almost everything Mehrlng, my
fellow detective, and I Imvo learned.
The chain of circumstances connecting
Mrs. Trost with tho death of her hus
band is complete, and I do not be
lieve It will be broken."

baby, for he drinks his milk as eager
ly ns any other Infant In the hospital.
His mother is sixteen years old and
weighs less than a hundred pounds.

of wlldness In Its wake, and whero

their knife-handed brethren who
use the slippery elm.
Ilube Marquade, for instance, has
walked fifty-one In twenty-six games
while Hendrlx, of Pittsburg, a right
hander spltter, has passed seventy
two In twenty-three conflicts. Still
Alexander, the Dooln star, has pass
ed as many ns Hendrlx, and ho does
not fool with the damp flag to any
extent, hut Alexender has worked in
twenty-eight games.
Of course, these figures Include
games In which pitchers appeared for
only a few Innings at a time, but
they give a protty fair general line
on tho proposition of control.
Coombs In twenty-four games
passed more men than the side
wheeler, Eddie Plank, In twenty
two. Against Jack's sixty-five
walks, the Gettysburg Catling lot
but forty-seven batters go free.
Vean Gregg, the Cleveland Kok-1-noor
left-hander, walked no more

O'Brien, the Boston Blazer right
hander, did In the same number of
times out.
Of course you are coming to the
