Coroner Jury Returns Verdict Charging Carrie McXeely With As sisting la the) Killing of Lon Ty lor, Colored, at the Home of. the. Former Where She lived on Xortii College Strert Late Sunday Night Failg to Account Fog Two Hour of That Night to the Sati-rfaxUon of the Jury No Clue to ttao WUere aboot of the Mao. Where was Carrie McNeely. or Mc Neil, from 11:4 Sunday night until 1:49 Monday morning, ft period of two hour th 'period between her inferential arrival s at her home on North College atreet and the flrt alarm aha gave to the police, notify ing them of the murder of Lena Tay lor, colored? This la the burning aueetion which ah failed to answer to the satisfac tion of an experienced coroner' Jury yesterday afternoon, as a reault of whose verdict she Waa committed to Jail by Coroner W. A. .jresham on the charge of being an accessory to the crime. "The jury flnda from such evidence as has been submitted to it that Lena Taylor came to her death aa th result of a pistol shot wound Inflicted by Gilbert Taylor, aaslstod by Carrie McNeely." Thia la the verdict re turned after a hearing at 3:30 o'clock yeaterday afternoon at No. 7 South Church street by the Jury composed f Messrs. C. B. Flournoy, W. 1. Fri day. J. 8. Harlrey, B. F. Powell, J. H. Orr and' T. F. Orlbbl. . There I a rayetery about the mur der of Lena Tayljr which has not yet been cleared, 1 Th most damaging evidence tending to show that the MoNeely woman at least know much about the killing waa that given by Eveline Moore, colored, who Uvea near by. Th McNeely wo.nan lives in the last house on the, west on I North College Just where the con- j necttng street swings north to the Seaboard station. "I heard a pistol shot and a wom an scream twice about half-past eleven o dock, aald Eveline Moore. "I walked to my window and pulled down the shade. Carrie McNeely' house waa lighted In both rooma. Somebody was running about Some eemed to run out the front door and seme, behind. Then I saw Carrie Mc Meely walking up ana down with a lamp In her hand." She seemed to be scrubbing op the floor. Ten or fifteen minute later the house was dark." About 1139 Carrie McNeely gave the alarm. 8h went to her own door and called to Lena Taylor to open Getting no response she got Laura Bennett fromnet door. They had to enter at the rear, the front door being locked. Then the body, was found in the closet. ' ' THE AFTERNOON, FIGHT. Th McNeely female had been lock ed up Sunday afternoon for a furious light near her home with a woman whom she named at. the hearing as Ida Knox. Policemen who went back that night to geU the name of thia person reported it as Ida Cowan. At any rate she escaped. . When the of ficer went In the afternoon the wom an now dead was In the house. 60 was man, presumably Gilbert Taylor. His wife had not figured In the fight. Car lie's torn clothes and bloody waist were replaced with others' and she was locked up, under the influence of whiskey and breathing out threaten Ings and slaughter against her an tagonist who had said something derogatory to her personal honor,, she said. She was released at a little after T o'clock. Mere la th prisoner tale: She went from her home that night to service at "Big Zion" church .on Mint street, riding on a street car. She walked back, unescorted, but stop ped awhile at the home of a brother. Aa she was between Seventh and Eighth streets she heard the Seaboard train come in. This, It was establish ed, arrived about 11:3. Hence she reached home In a few minutes. Th prisoner says she left Gilbert Taylor at the house when he went to ohurch. He and his wife were not quarreling. She told of a quarrel at j me rront gate they had three weeki ago yesieraay, wnerem lealousv flsr- ured, as It generally does In negroes' quarrels, eh had accused him of unfaithfulness and threatened to "ao back to Monrae." He had ald, "If you do, I'll kill you." Thia is the substance of her lonr tale. If Carrie McNeely heard the Sea board train come in at 11:30. how waa It that she was trying to enter her own home at 1:40? She said she rooted about. There Is no clue to Taylor's where abouts.
