JACK PICKFORD FLEES FOLLOWING WIFE’S DEATH

t Jack Pickford, husband of Oliva Thomas, moving picture actress who died from poisoning Saturday, has fled Paris by aeroplane according to reports received by Universal News Service. The sudden departure of Pickford has added strength to the belief that the poipon was not self administered, and the suicide verdict will not doubt be repealed. Pickford left Paris by aeroplane for London, leaving no address. With his departure all the members of the party which proved fatal to the picture star faded hastily. from the scene. Now no one in Paris can be found who ever knew or heard of Pickford or Olive. Pickford’s sudden departure while his wife’s body remains in Paris has aroused comment, especially in view of the fact that the autopsy will be. held today.
