It was first thought the two wo- men and a man died of asphy- xiation in a fire in their home. The inquest was ordered by coroner Dr. I. Joyal at North Bay. who said Saturday an au- topsy reveaied that both women tiled of suffocation. but also suf- fered fractured skulls.

He said the man. Allen W. Doushlv. (7. had a deep stab wound in the neck. but it was not known if he died of suffoca- tion or because of the stab wound.

Dr. Joyal said the presence of "black soot" in their lungs in- dicated they -were breathing some time after fire broke out. and yet they had made no attempt to get out.

The woman were Doughty'a wife. Muriel. 39. and her mother. Mrs. George Barker. 73.

The scantialy-clad bodies of the trio were found in the frame home after clouds of oily smoke were seen pouring from it Friday morning.

LONDON. iRelll.lI'll - Prima' .Ministcr Sir Anthony Eden warn- .94 Britons Sunday night that crliv pling rail and dock strikes threat- en to "mash up our hard-earned prosperity” and throw Britain into economic chaos.

''I am not going to leave you in any doubt about the deadly seri- ousness oi what is happening to our country." the prime minister said in a country-wide radio broad- cast from his country home. Clie- quera.

He warned that the rail strike. now in its second week. is going to bring unemplo men: since "you cannot stop most of the trains in a land like ours without soon bring- ing some factories to a halt."

Eden said the strike will inter- fere with attempts to build up coal supplies for the winter. forcinx Britain to import coal if it con- tinues. The twin stoppages were also crippling the vital export trade on which British economY depends to pay its mammoth im- port bill.

"if we go on like this we shall smash up our hard-earned prol- perlty." the prime minister said

bitterly.
