MISS HICKMAN'S DEATH
Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, October 20. (Received Oct. 21, at 8.40 a.m.) Miss Hickman's head was found a short distance from hei' body. It is believed that the severance was partly due to decomposition and partly to rate. Although a bottle supposed to contain opium was found near the body, some of the facts are against the theory of suicide. A stocking on the body bore Miss Hickman's initials. Tho idea of murder is discredited. The inquest will be opened to-morrow.
