Ground for Suspicion.

Mrs. Anna Bartholin, who mysteriously
| disappeared three weeks before the Mitch
ell girl went away with the young man.
The body of the girl was beyond iden
tification, but her sister, Lille Mitchell,
tonight positively identified the dress
the petticoat of lavender silk and the hat
worn by her sister at the time OF her dis
appearance and there is no doubt in the
minds OF the police that the body is that
of Minnie Mitchell.
Miss Mitchell was last seen by the
members of her family on the night OF
July 3Oth, when she left her fathers house
ir company with Bartholin the couple
saying that they intended to take walk.
She did not return to the house that night
and nothing was heard of her or Rartholin
until two days later, when the girls IA
ther received a note from Bartholin say
ing that he and the girl had eloped and
had started for California to spend their
honeymoon.
Mrs. Anna Bartholin, the mother, whom
her son, disappeared from her home at
No. 431 Calumet Avenue, a month ago.
Her son made no report of her disappear
ance to the police. and a man who had
boarded with her for years. reported the
matter, saying that he was confident that
she had met with foul play, for the rea-
son that She had said nothing about being
away and had disappeared on a washing
day SO suddenly as to leave the clothes

her apartment, but found no trace Of her.

time to think she had oeen murdered,
the matter was allowed TO drop.

and has been employed as a mechanic IN
a wagon shop at Auburn Park He has
not been seen by his employers for more
than two weeks, and they have received
no word from him.
There is no known motive for the. mur-

render it out of the question that she
could have inflicted it herself, and there
