CAMDEN, N. j., Oct. 13.-After their day Of
~exertion the Camden police have about arrived
at tho conclusion that the killing Of Mrs. Shaw
and her mother is another murder mystery.
The two men arrested at Heffners Hotel. In
Stockton township. Today. with q revolver in
their possession. were intoxicated when brought
to the City Hall. When they sobered up they
both accounted for their movements early yes
terday morning. and they will be discharged to-
morrow. They are Harry iieesey and John Doc

The box containing the will OF Mrs. Emma
Zane was removed to the City Hall to-day and
opened. The will was sealed in q plain white
envelope, apparently new. After q consultation
witt Mayor Westcott 1t was decided to place
the will In the hands Of Surrogate West. where
under the law 1t will have to remain q period Of
ten days unopened.
1t has been currently reported that Edward
Zane, a son OF the elder victim, was made an
heir under the provisions of tho will. share and
share with Mrs. shaw, the murdered daughter.
Mrs. Zane Is said TO have ment oned the fact
that her daughter was the only heir TO her
estate. Edward Zane is IS years old, and rarely
visited the Camden abode. He is a stationary
engineer in Philadelphia He WAS closeted
with Prosecutor Jenkins for a long time to-day.
1t is believed that the police endeavored to as
certain from him all the facts he could give
them regarding a relative who Is one of the OBJ
5ects of suspicion.
To every appearance the surveillance kept
over Eli Shaw, the grandson. has been relaxed
