FOUL PLAY IN CHRISTCHURCH
A WOMAN'S BODY FOUND. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Christchurch, Last Night. The dead body of a woman about thir-ty-three years of age was discovered in a right-of-way off Cashel street shortly after seven o'clock this morning. The clothing was disarranged, and abrasions on the body pointed to foul play. It is understood that the post mortem will reveal that poison was administered to the woman, and was taken by her. The contents of the stomach are to be analysed. The police state that the body was certainly not in the right-of-way at 2 a.m. to-day, and that it was probably placed there, after life was extinct, after 4 a.m.
