Last evening county physician Dr. A. A. Robleson reported to the sheriff that a chemical test of A. E. Ashby’s stomach showed a large quantity of chloral hydrate. The poisoning appears voluntary or by others to cause murder or suicide. The body was found in a small pond on Fortieth Street near Washington Avenue. Identity with Ashby is likely, though questions remain about the death and possible collaborators. Deputy Sheriff J. J. Hobson expects a letter from Ashby’s brother T. G. Ashby with more details. County commissioners approved the test but noted an outlay of $25 for analysis when called.
