CAPITALIST IS FOUND SLAIN

Coroners Jury Unable to Solve Death of F. P. Graves of Chicago—Bullet Hole in Head. Chicago, July 9. —Lake Forest was shocked and baffled by the puzzle of the death of Frank P. Graves, lawyer, landowner and clubman, found, pa-jama-clad, in the garage behind his home in the northwestern village. A bullet had passed through the head from ear to ear. The revolver was on the floor. Graves was still breathing, but did not recover consciousness before he died. A coroner’s inquest failed to solve 'the riddle. This was the verdict: “We, the jury, find that Frank P. Graves came to his death from a gunshot wound in the right side of his head, and that shot was fired by a hand unknown.”
