CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-YesJerday after
noon while searching for fresh clews
to the Eva Mitchell mystery a weapon
was found that the police believed was
used by the murderer. 1t is a heavy iron
stove poker twenty-five inches in
length, three eighths of an inch thick
and weighs about three pounds. There
are three dark spots on the handle that
have the appearance of blood, bnt a
chemical examination will be necessary
to determine this. The greatest i'm
pOrtance attached to the finding of the
poker is that every f1agman's shanty
along the tracks of the road contains a
poker of precisely the same make and
design. Tom Masterson, the man sus-
pected of numbering the girl, who is
still locked up in Hyde Park police sta
ton had just such poker in his shanty
and it is there yet, but the poker be-
longing to shaDty at the next cross
ing is missing. The poker was found
in vacant lot not more than one hun
dred yards from where the murdered
girl was found
