Man island controversy has taken an
other turn. Theodore Ludgate the Chi

burning brush and clearing sites for a

go up, the federal department of militia
has granted Ludgate lease and yes
terday sent him telegram which told
him practically to go ahead and the

him more like a practical joke than

within three days announced that the
dead body of a man had been found
shot through the heart at the corner
of the Rue de Lille and the Rue st.
Max. They added that he was poor
man Of respectable life and regular
habits, and no possible motive could
be assigned for his murder. On the
day following the murder Matthias re-
ceived another letter which said:
Your victim has fallen. Forty min
uteS ago a man, apparently of the
working class, was killed by a bullet
through his body in the Rue st. Max.
This is simply to show you that we
are in no fear of sacrificing human
life" The dead man was a gardener
named Letellier. The police have been
able to discover 10 motive for his muir
der and no clew to the identity of his
murdererS. The spot where he was
murdered is surrounded entirely by
business buildings in which there is
ordinarily not a single human being
at late hour of the evening. AS soon
as he read of the murder Matthias
showed his own threatening letter to
the police. Naturally he believes that
the murderers who would kill a man
merely as an example would have no
hesitation in killing him. He is guard
ed night and day by the police. He is
utterly Frustrated by fear, and unless
the police discover the author or the
authors of the crime he will pay the
$4,000 francs rather than die of fright.
The fact that the day fixed for his
death iC como time ahead only adds
to his terror. 1t is only so much more
time in which to worry himself to
death. He now feels that it would
have been cheaper to pay the $4,000
francs than to suffer so much.

A girl named Marguerite Sylvan was
