Inquire at this CRIME OR ACCIDENT? The Poisoning at Kodter's Rarch Still a Mystery. Ay Inquest Afforcs 2 S21, Tusstble Hore of @ Solution. PREIS OM ay Yesterday’s Investigation by the Officers Throws Very Little Light on the Unfortunate Affair. It is certain that George Kohler and August Amberg died from the effects of poison, and that Sol Amberg and Messrs. Wrisley, Davis and Gillett ean charge their sickness up to, the same cause. There is no telling as yet, however, whether they were the victims of uccidental poisoning, or of some coldblooded villain who wanted to put old man Kohler out of the way and to that and surreptitiously dosed some of the food or drink at his cabin. County Coroner Hocking and Sheriff Getchell who went up to the Kohler Ranch yesterday noon did not get back till after the Transonier had gene to press last evening. They had spent the whole afternoon in interviewing the people of that section, inspecting every nook and cranny of the premises and tracing as far as they had time todo every clue and hint that might point to the poisoning baving been accidental or intentional. They did not begin with a prejudice in favor of either theory, and when they quit they had no substantial evidence either way. They failed to learn, however, that Kobler had been other troubles very recently. So far as they could ascertain the last man he had a controversy over titles with was no longer in that section. In searching the cabin they found that the victims had apparently eaten bread, canned sardines, peaches preserved in alcohol and some pears and apples revently sent to his friend Kohler by Wyatt Huffman of this city as a present, and that they had drank coffee, alcohol and well water. Charles Stewig and B. Lutz had gone up from here when they heard of Kohler’s death, and had eaten and-drank at the place without feeling any bad effeots. This fact simply tends to complicate the mystery. Moreover, while the officers were there yesterday they fed a can of the sardines to the house cat which not ‘only relished the greasy mess but seemed to continue to enjoy its usual health after lapping up the last drop of oil and mewed for more. They found in the cabin an empty demijohn, that is known to have recently contained a quantity of alcohol, but at least a portion of the men did not drink enough of the liquor to produce the suffering they experienced, hencé the theory of ‘alcoholic poisoning receives somewhat of a set-back. They also unearthed a box of arsenic, which they were told had been purchased by Kohler some time ago to he used in poisoning gophers, So Sheriff. Getchell and Coroner Hocking did the only thing they couid at present. They obtained samples of all the eatables and drinkables for analysis. It is the present intention to’ hold an inquest on Monday, and every effort will be made to then get at the true facts of the case. Some of those who have the run of-the case Say they would not be at all surprised if ‘. fects of the poison. I found navigation involved with neighbors in any land or . siaciienaieeinienieeaninnimeneais = Then my. sight began to fail me and sharp pains of a spasmodic character attacked my abdomen. The blindness iucreased and the pains increased in intensity till they became so excruciating that I almost felt as though death would be preferable to enduring them longer. I began to pump emetics into myself. After awhile they were taking effect, and then I thought I would turn inside out. I had a notion that by walking around and keeping up the circulation I could help stave off: the efpretty difficult, indeed next to impossible.I staggered like a very drunk man, and could see scarcely anything. As I realized that I was not drank I tell you I thought my time had come. As soon as I got a little better I struck out for Nevada City as fast as I could come. I wouldn’t go through such an experience again for all the wealth of California.” ~ A Superb Work.

As far asthe Sheriff is concerned, he said last night: . “I have nothing to keep back from the . public in relation to this sad affair. I believe the men were stricken down by partaking of poisoned victuals or drink. Whether that poison was in the well water, the alcohol, the preserved peaches, the sardines or something else, I cannot say, no more than I can whether the poisoning was accidental or intentional. I can so far find no probable motive for the commission of so dastardly a crime, and again it is strange that if the poisoning was alcoholic or say from the tin in‘ which the sardines were enclosed, that it should have so suddenly and so generally become manifest when there had been no injury inflicted before when the alcoholic and the canned goods from the same lot were. freely partaken of. I am non-plussed.” As far as the officer could learn those men who ate of the pears were sick, while those who took none of that fruit escaped. The Coroner inclines to the Opinion, according to a telephone message received today from Grass Valley, that itis simply a case of alcohol poisoning —that-the men drank to excess of the liquor which was of a vile quality. As the sufferers were not known as heavy the Coroner may be mistaken in his theory. . One of the men who was made sick after eating gives a graphic description of the effects he experienced: “I never suffered anything ng. ; like it rede i he said.

Inquire at this CRIME OR ACCIDENT? The Poisoning at Kodter's Rarch Still a Mystery. Ay Inquest Afforcs 2 S21, Tusstble Hore of @ Solution. PREIS OM ay Yesterday’s Investigation by the Officers Throws Very Little Light on the Unfortunate Affair. It is certain that George Kohler and August Amberg died from the effects of poison, and that Sol Amberg and Messrs. Wrisley, Davis and Gillett ean charge their sickness up to, the same cause. There is no telling as yet, however, whether they were the victims of uccidental poisoning, or of some coldblooded villain who wanted to put old man Kohler out of the way and to that and surreptitiously dosed some of the food or drink at his cabin. County Coroner Hocking and Sheriff Getchell who went up to the Kohler Ranch yesterday noon did not get back till after the Transonier had gene to press last evening. They had spent the whole afternoon in interviewing the people of that section, inspecting every nook and cranny of the premises and tracing as far as they had time todo every clue and hint that might point to the poisoning baving been accidental or intentional. They did not begin with a prejudice in favor of either theory, and when they quit they had no substantial evidence either way. They failed to learn, however, that Kobler had been other troubles very recently. So far as they could ascertain the last man he had a controversy over titles with was no longer in that section. In searching the cabin they found that the victims had apparently eaten bread, canned sardines, peaches preserved in alcohol and some pears and apples revently sent to his friend Kohler by Wyatt Huffman of this city as a present, and that they had drank coffee, alcohol and well water. Charles Stewig and B. Lutz had gone up from here when they heard of Kohler’s death, and had eaten and-drank at the place without feeling any bad effeots. This fact simply tends to complicate the mystery. Moreover, while the officers were there yesterday they fed a can of the sardines to the house cat which not ‘only relished the greasy mess but seemed to continue to enjoy its usual health after lapping up the last drop of oil and mewed for more. They found in the cabin an empty demijohn, that is known to have recently contained a quantity of alcohol, but at least a portion of the men did not drink enough of the liquor to produce the suffering they experienced, hencé the theory of ‘alcoholic poisoning receives somewhat of a set-back. They also unearthed a box of arsenic, which they were told had been purchased by Kohler some time ago to he used in poisoning gophers, So Sheriff. Getchell and Coroner Hocking did the only thing they couid at present. They obtained samples of all the eatables and drinkables for analysis. It is the present intention to’ hold an inquest on Monday, and every effort will be made to then get at the true facts of the case. Some of those who have the run of-the case Say they would not be at all surprised if ‘. fects of the poison.

The blindness iucreased and the pains increased in intensity till they became so excruciating that I almost felt as though death would be preferable to enduring them longer. I began to pump emetics into myself. After awhile they were taking effect, and then I thought I would turn inside out. I had a notion that by walking around and keeping up the circulation I could help stave off: the efpretty difficult, indeed next to impossible.I staggered like a very drunk man, and could see scarcely anything. As I realized that I was not drank I tell you I thought my time had come. As soon as I got a little better I struck out for Nevada City as fast as I could come. I wouldn’t go through such an experience again for all the wealth of California.” ~ A Superb Work.

As far asthe Sheriff is concerned, he said last night: . “I have nothing to keep back from the . public in relation to this sad affair. I believe the men were stricken down by partaking of poisoned victuals or drink. Whether that poison was in the well water, the alcohol, the preserved peaches, the sardines or something else, I cannot say, no more than I can whether the poisoning was accidental or intentional. I can so far find no probable motive for the commission of so dastardly a crime, and again it is strange that if the poisoning was alcoholic or say from the tin in‘ which the sardines were enclosed, that it should have so suddenly and so generally become manifest when there had been no injury inflicted before when the alcoholic and the canned goods from the same lot were. freely partaken of. I am non-plussed.” As far as the officer could learn those men who ate of the pears were sick, while those who took none of that fruit escaped. The Coroner inclines to the Opinion, according to a telephone message received today from Grass Valley, that itis simply a case of alcohol poisoning —that-the men drank to excess of the liquor which was of a vile quality. As the sufferers were not known as heavy the Coroner may be mistaken in his theory. . One of the men who was made sick after eating gives a graphic description of the effects he experienced: “I never suffered anything ng. ; like it rede i he said.
