Saunders, whose work as sec ond assistant physician at the state hosiptal for the insane was the sub ject of a legislative investigation, was exonerated of every charge in ths re port of the committee made to the legislature today. The committee reports that they went fully and minutely into the com plaints, insinuations, innuendoes and charges against Dr. Saunders and found no evidence to sustain any of them. The report continues: "There is no breath of even a sus picion as to her moral character none against her professional reputa tion and conduct and career in her ethical department and in al! of her conduct in or out of the institution. The few and insignificant acts on which complaints were based were the direct results of requests from the su perintendent, her superior officer, and were executed in the discharg "of duty to suffering humanity and are to be commended and praised rather than condemned. "Her work and labors in the state hospital bears eloquent tribute to the remarkable initiative, aided by tire less energy and dominated bv the wo- fl owing love for unfortunate humanity which love, en ergy and tireless devotion is manifest ed by her every movement." The committee condemns the meth: od of trial of Dr. Saunders, adopted at the meeting of the board of regents of the hospital December 12, 1913, and hopes that the records of the state will never show a repetition of such procedure." ine siana oi ur. w. j. tsaocock, su perintendent, who championed the cause of Dr. Saunders, is. commended by the committee. The administration of Jthe colored wards is declared inefficient and the work of staff officers in these wards "only perfunctory." " i The committee recommends that a rigid system of rules be adopted by the board of regents and that the State park property, purchased for hospital use, be developed as rapidly as the state can afford to do to relieve congestion now existing at the present quarters. P. LYEfiLY Special to The News. Barbers Junction, Feb. 21 -A char- red body, believed to-be that of Clerk Preston Lyerly, and the statements of citizens who were attracted to Smithdeal's store here by a pistol shot at 8 o'clock, go to indicate that a safe was robbed, murder prob ably committed and the store fired by the robbers at that place last night. The first to arrive on the scene say that two boxes were against the front door of the building, the safe door was open and a lamp turned low gleaming feebly on the- floor beside it, while flames were spreading from the rear of the building all over the store. No attempt was made to see if the contents of the safe had been tampered with, but in the limited time a hurried search was made for Lyerly, who was supposed to be in the store. He could not be found, but by the light of the embers when the building was in ashes a body was found in what had been the back part of the building. This is supposed to be that of Lyerly, as it is practi cally certain that he wras in the store at 8 o'clock. No examination was made of the safe. Sheriff McKenzie with depu ties from Salisbury are searching for a clue to the robbers, if such there were, but the affair is a seem ingly impenetrable mystery.
