Death sol Three Women Shrouded In Mystery. Lancaster, 0., Oct. 1.-r-Neighbors of Agnes and Alice Smetters, maiden sisters aged 48 and 50 years, respectively, seeing no activity about the home of the two women today, entered the house tonight and found the twertt'omen and Miss Mary Stretton, 30, a visitor, sitting erect in rocking chairs and all three dead. There was no sign of violence or poisoning, and an examination of the gas pipes revealed no leaks. Medical attention revealed no cause for the deaths and the bodies have been taken charge of by the coroner, who is attempting to solve the mystery of the deaths. That death had come quietly was evidenced by the fact that one of the sisters had her glasses on and was holding a newspaper. There was no food in the house except half of an apple pie, and this showed no sign of poison. The stomachs of the three women will be sent to Columbus Monday for analysis to see if any poison is to be found in them.
