""H"'" "N""~
Left the Hospital-It Is Thought That
she Was Thrown Into the water-May
Have Been Temporarily Insane.
NEWARK, y. j., Jan. aO-One feature
Df the latest mystery was solved when tho
body Of the young girl which was found
floating in Morris canal, near the Summit
street bridge, was identified as Marie Santo
by her sister. just how the girl died has
not been learned.
Many persons called at Mullins morgue
TO look at the body, but IL was not until
last night that IL was identified Three
women went to the morgue. One of them
recognized the dead girl as her sister, Marie
Santo, % years old.
The Dead Girl Her Sister.
The sisters were born In Hungary and
came to America alone three years ago,
leaving their mother alone In the old coun-
try. Both obtained employment In New
ark as domestlcs, and seven weeks ago
Marie went TO work for Mrs. A. NJ Moses
OF "a Market street Marie frequently spoke
OF being despondent because OF the separa-
tion from her mother. Her sister visited
her, and Mrs. Moses often found them cry
ing bitterly together while locked In each
others arms and speaking Of their mother.
When alone, too, Marie spent much OF her
time In silent weeping. She had felons on
three Of her fingers, was troubled with cry
sipelas in the face and severe pains In tho
chest
She left Mrs. Moses three weeks ago and
went to a house in State street, where she
and her sister stopped when out Of work.
She returned TO Mrs. Moses week later
and nt her own request was sent TO the
German hospital. She remained there
until Saturday evening, when she was
much improved, and left TO go TO the home
OF Mrs katz at 20 Grant street, where her
sister is employed.
Her Death stiil a Mystery.
She never reached there, and when her
sister learned yesterday that she had left
the hospital she became alarmed. Then
the sister heard OF the mysterious drown
ing and went to the morgue, hardly ex-
pecting, however, 10 find the girl there.
There Is no doubt that the girl took a
straight line across the city from the hos
pital toward Grant street. This would
have taken her TO or near the Summit
street canal bridge. She probably reached
there late Saturday night, and whether
she fell into the water accidentally was
thrown into the canal or jumped In while
temporarily insane from illness and de-
spondency at not being able to bring her
mother from Hungary to this country Is
still mystery.
