THE IRON HILL MURDER.
A Mysterious Young Lady who Thinks
the Victim Is Her Brother, and Is From
Wflmington

A Mysterious Young Lady who Thinks
the Victim Is Her Brother, and Is From
Wilmington.
A special sent from Elkton Nd, to
the Baltimore Sun, Monday night, said I:
Coroner Perry Lltzenberg of Elkton,
this morning, received letter from
John L. Steel of Head Of Christiana,
Del, in which he states that a bundle
of clothing had been found in barn on
the farm Of Pierce Whiicraft, near
Kembleville, Chester county, Pa. The
bundle was discovered by one of the
farm hands stuffed down between the
hay and weather boarding. The bundle
was not examined very closely, but the
person who found 1t says it contains an
entire suit of clothes. Having seen in
the papers that the murdered man was
found near Iron Hill, Cecil county, and
was perfectly nude, Mr.. Whitcraft
thought that the clothing might perhaps
belong to the unknown man and Mt once
notified Coroner Litzenberg, who will
probably look into the matter.
A lady, who refused to give her name
and address, arrived in Elkton this
afternoon and had an interview with
Coroner Gutenberg, DIR. Howard
Bratton and the Sun correspondent
about the description of the man found
near Iron Hill. She stated that the
description published in the papers an
swered that of her brother, who was a
resident of Wilmington, but who had
been missing for several weeks. She
left on train for Wilmington with a
picture of the murdered man to show to
her mother. Later in the day she again
passed through Elkton on a south bound
train, leaving the picture and a note for
the coroner, which read as follows: 81

brother; you will hear from some mem
Der of the family tomorrow, possibly"
The note was signed. "One Who

The letter which fell into the hands of

hension is voluninous affair. Its writer
alleges that he is IL reformer who has been
delegated by God to run an independent
ticket for the presidency of the United
States; that it has been delegated to him
that he is the only man living who can
safely guide the government through the
present crisis. He thinks that il will be
necessary to kill Senator Mitchell, who, he
says, is working against the interests of

Have Determined to have One.
At the meeting of the Board of Street
and Sewer Directors, last Tuesday, con-
siderable time was spent in discussing
the advisability of purchasing street
sweeper. The directors seemed to think
sweeper is necessary, but the board
will practice economy until long
towards spring, when they will prob
ably obtain a sweeper. An agent was
present at the meeting Tuesday point
ing out the advantages of a particular
kind of sweeper. Mr.. Gawthrop faceti-
ousiy remarked that it might be tried
over in the Cherry Island Marsh. The
agent declared IL would carry 6 inches
of mud and dirt without dropping it.
The matter went over.
The board directed the engineers to
make q survey of B street, so that it
might be opened from Buttonwood
street to the New Castle causeway. In
reply to a communication from the
owners of the Tenth street sewer which
is for sale, the board stated that they did
not desire to purchase 1t at this time.
The contract for printing the annual re-
port of the department was awarded to
the Diamond State Printing Company,
