VERDlCi 0f DROWNING
Coroner Phelan Inquires Into Mys-
terious, Death of Oystenaan
u
insisting that her husband must
have met with foul play and protest-
ing that he had every reason in the
world for wishing to avoid suicide,
Mrs. Louisa W. Ehlert, wife of the
man who was found dangling in the
water from a rope tied to the sloop,
Democrat, emphatically asserted yes-
terday her belief that Ehlert was a vic-_
tim of an enemy or enemies.
Coroner J. J. Phelan began his in-
vestlgation yesterday, into the myste
ed on the body. The autopsy was made
in August G. Baker's undertaking es-
tablishment, in Bridgeport, under the
direction .of Medical Examiner Samuel
M. Garllck. assisted by Drs. Edward M.
Fitzgerald, J. H. Finnegan, E. B. Wel-
don and George Garlick, disclosed that
Ehlert was in good physical condition
prior to his death, which was due to
drowning: Such external marks as
were displayed upon the body are de-
clared to have been produced through
action of the water.
' At her home on Smith street, Bridge-
port. Mrs. Ehlcrt declared, “i believe
that my husband met with foul play
for he was happy when he left homo.
had arranged for a prosperous sum-l
mer season and above all, held thatfi‘
“Life is too short," when it came to;
matters of clnm_ce."‘inder this belief :
he had for many years refused to run.
his 50-foot sloop in the winter-time. (
She. said. inrihen' “My husband
would nevcr have committed suicide
on his boat unless he had first drowned
his dog. That dog was loved by his.
inastcr as he would have loved his own
child. lie had been brought up from a
thrcc‘day old puppy by my husband;
who has now had him nine years. i
cannot conceive of suicide with thei
dog still alive." ,
The last. seen of Captain Ehleri at
his home was Monday night which cor-
responds with the statements of Man-
, dus Peterson. made yesterday in full
detail to the police. Peterson never-
the less was bold under $500 bonds in
the city court upon teclmicai charges
of breach of the peace, that the police
might investigate further.
Detective George Felt, who with'
(.ltarlos Clark. the man who had first
made a trip to the sloop with Coroner:
John J, Phelan. It was found that the.
victim's body had been tied to the.
loose end of a painter-rope which had
been carried from the_dory alongside:
to the sloop, rigging and thence aft
and was looped over the after rail of
the boat. At the foot of this Captain,
Ehlert’s body was discovered in aboutl
22 feet of water. .
Clark. with E. F. Brown, watchmani
at .the power-house, were positive yes-i
terday that death was probably due to}
suicide in view of the fact that such _
means would be sought by a person
who did not want his body to wash.
away. 'Brown stated that the mast-i
head light of the Democrat was not
lighted'Tuesday night, and that in his'
position on the powerhouse dock he
would have seen anybody rowinglto
the boat during the daytime. §
This theory: is also home out by
‘thefact’that Ehlert had not loaded hiss
boat ri‘nesday morningas had been eu-E .
“pected. though at .his home it was said
the captain was not sure of having a;
cargo when he left heme Monday
night. . . . . .1
Mandus Peterson yesterday, made a
, complete statement of his movements
during the course of the week. Pter-
son said that he got up Tuesday morn-
ing and went to Casper Schick's aa-
loon in Southport and later to Harry.
Barker's saloon in Fairfield, in com
pany with a' negro, Albert Smith. They
got back before dark and went toI
Bierbaum's saloon on Water street.‘
where they stayed until that place 1
closed. He went to the houseboat and.
stayed there until noon-time yestery}
defy. He thougt the had missed the;
sailing of the Democrat and went to?

got 10 cents from Bierbaum, according ,
to his statement and went to see'if tho I

boat and knew that the captain must
be on board.~
“When he got to the power-house
creek he found a number of men gath-
ered about and learned of the captain's
death, He said he had never had hit
trouble with the captain. The only
trouble the captain recently had in ' ‘
Bridgeport was with someone whm
the captain accused of cutting his
lines. Peterson had told him the man's .
name and the captain is alleged in
have met this man a few days later
and to have had an argument with .
him. - ~' I
“I do not know how this happened ‘
