It is confidently believed that
Frank H. Smiley, who today made
a confession of his connection with
the death of Marie Diefenbach, at
Chicago. was in Rossland for a
period of three’ months this year.
As the dispatches yesterday showed,
the victiny was one of the confeder-
ates,. who, after securing heavy life
insurance in Canadian and other
companies, feigned death, the inten-
tention, being to replace her sup-
posedly lifeless body with another
cor; She was to have shared in
the proceeds of the policy, but the
plotters wanted it all, Tha meang
of death was effective instead of be>
ing a sham.
Registered at a Rossland hotel in
the early part of the year was a
man by the name of F. H,.Smiley.
He was here nearly three months
and nobody knew his business,
