/ say they have description of the

The coupling pin found in the
vacant lot was submitted to County
Physician johnson for examination. He
| reported that 1t was matted with blood
and human hair.
! DIR. johnson then made a careful ex-
| animation of the body. He said that
the young woman must have had a
desperate struggle with her murderer,
as her hands We're covered with bruises
which, he says she must have received
in trying to ward off the blows of her
assailant. DR. johnson is of the oDin-
ion that robbery was the motive for
the crime
Miss Sullivan wore small gold
watch last evening This was missing
from the body. the police say. and they
think that the murderer took 1t. The
young woman did not have any money
