CLAIMS SON WAS MURDERED

Mother of Robert Murray Will Have Thorough Examination Made as to Cause of
His Death

Bath, N. Y., April 2 - Robert MURRAY's grave was opened here Monday, the body
disinterred and a post-mortem examination was made, the result of which will
be published later. MURRAY died last October, after being committed to the
county jail here for alleged vagrancy. At the time of his death alcoholism
was ascribed as the cause. Now his family alleges that his death resulted
from injuries sustained when a D. L. & W. railroad detective arrested MURRAY
and in so doing beat him over the head with a club. It is to decide this that
the post mortem will be made. Dr. LUNDBLATZ of Corning, the county
bacteriologist, made the examination, assisted by Coroner John E. HASSON,
Drs. BURLESON, WYNKOOP, SMITH, MATTHEWSON and ALDRICH of this village. If it
is found that MURRAY did die from the assault, then the district attorney
will present the case to the grand jury at the present term of Supreme Court
to Corning and will endeavor to indict the party guilty of the assault upon
MURRAY for first degree murder. MURRAY's mother has come from Scranton, Pa.,
and retained W. K. and R. R. LYON as attorneys. She has filed a claim for
$10,000 damages for her son's death against the railroad company.
