MYSTERIOUS MURDER
PUZZLING THE POLICE
Jealous Man Of Dead Woman Thought to

as Yet-On the Lookout for a Ger
tain Livery Rig, Which Has Been
Missing for Several Days.
Inv ASSOCIATED PRESS I

New York, Sept. Io.-Detectives Of
New York, New Jersey and other nearby
cities in New Jersey are working together
10 unravel the mystery Of the death OF
Mrs. Joseph Pulitzer, whose nude body
was found yesterday in the Morris canal,
in the outskirts OF Jersey City, under cir
cumstances indicating murder.
The husband OF the woman, tailor of
this city, was brought to police headquar-
ters in this city early this morning and
closely questioned. Sergeant Phaer, in
charge of the detective bureau. last night
said that Pulitzer told the police that he
was out at the primary elections on Tues
day night, and when he got home he decd-
ed to have light repast and asked his
wife to prepare some cocoa.
There was none in the house and she
went to get some and also some bread and
fruit According to the police Pulitzer
learned later that his wife had been to
bakery for the bread and there he lost
trace of her.
Police Believe Husbands Story.
Sergeant Phaler added that Pulitzer had
made statement to the New York detec-
tives, which was considered so important
that it would not be made public. The
dead woman was Dane.
Captain Titus said today he believed
Puitzer's statement was the truth
The theory of Chief of Police Murphy of
Jersey City is that the woman was killed in
New York and that the body was taken
across the river OH a ferryboat in wagon.
The chief thinks that someone admired the
woman and killed her in fit Of jealousy.
At the detective bureau this morning it
was said the central office had been notified
by the Newark police to be on the lookout
for black runabout with solid rubber tires
and also for small bay horse, both of
which have been missing from the livery
stable of man named Mullins since yes
terday morning.

cans of Bingham county in convention as
sembed have nominated a full ticket
which stands every show in the world of
winning at the polls this fall. One of the
important questions before the delegates
was the proposed division of Bingham

question. Blackfoot is the present county
seat and in the event that Bingham should
be cut in two, Idaho Falls will be the
county seat of the new division. The pco-
pie of Idaho Falls and the northern part
of the county are advocating the cut.
