New Evidence Against Collins,

Laurel, Del, April 19.-The two
State detectives intimate strongly
to-day that much of the evidence
against Elmer Collins, accused of the
murder Of his wife, Aida, was with
held at the habeas corpus hearing
yesterday. lThey say they have proof
that Mrs. Collins was not killed in the
barn, where she was found, but was
killed IN a corn crib nearby.
1t is also said that Detective Rat
ledge has blood d.colored tufts of Mrs.
Collins hair, found in the corn crib.
Rumor has it that recent discoveries
implicate others besides Collins. q
When he returned here last night
the accused man declared he wonld
leave no stone unturned to clear his
good name and ayenge the murder of
his wife. Plnkerton detcctiucs have
been retained by the family and Ithey
are making every effort to solve 1.-The
mystery.
