fore IL o'clock, Otto Schillinger q
watchman at the Hampton colliery
which abutS ON the field where the
crime took place, halted Il negro who
was heading down the Sloan switch and
asked him where he was going. At
sight of the watchman's star the negro
turned and ran.
This. briefly stated, is what has turn
ed suspicion from everyone else and
fastened IL on the unknown negro.
Yesterday Captain Thomas Williams,
| City Detective Robert Deter and Pa
trolman James Hart worked assiduous-
ly at unravelling the mystery with this
| theory of the crime in mind. Their de-
ductions form a plausible story.
Mary Quinn left Miss Herdie's home
| shortly after 10 o'clock. without getting
| the yeast for which she had gone out
from her own home less than an hour
| before, She went around by way of
| l-uZernc street and the lane rather than
down the railroad and diagonally
through the pasture field. There is an
| electric light ut the intersection of Lu-
Zerne street and the railroad and an
other where LuZerne street and the
lane to continental patch" intersect.
Anyone loaling about the railroad could
discern for II considerable distance
whether or not person passing along
l.uzerne street was Il man or woman.
HEAVY STICKS USED.
ON the side of the railroad track, 100
yards south of the crossing and lust
opposite the rude gateway opening on
the diagonal path across the pasture
field is recently unlOaded pile of iron
pipe. In unloading this pipe, heavy
sticks are used such as that which the
murderer welded. One of them was
lying around, supposedly, and was en-
countered by the murderer.
The murderer came into that locality
by way of The railroad and upon reach

massive club he had accidentally pick

As the idea Was revolving in his
mind, Il lone woman is seen passing

LIFTED HER OVER FENCE.


LIFTED HER OVER FENCE.
The assailant picked her UP, lifted
her over the fence and dropped her to
the ground. with her head close to the
fence post, where the first traces of
blood were discovered on the ground.
The first blow probably landed on the
right side of the forehead and produced
the lesser wound. though it was a
wound which would have of itself
caused death.
Picking her up again he carried her
behind the second of two thornapple
bushes standing one directly after the
other at equal distances from the fence,
the farthest about ten yards from the
fence. Here he dropped her to the
ground and the blood-matted switch Of
her hair caught in one of the thorns.
AT this point, it is supposed he COM
mitted the outrage Semi-conscious-
ness began to return and with it came
meanings. Fearful, that she might have
recognized him or that her meanings
would attract attention before he could
get safely away, he dragged her farth-
er in towards the centre of the field
about five yards. left her lying whence
the first big pool of blood was discov
cred. and returned to the fence for his
club, intent upon slencing her forever.
After returning with the club he
believed it safer to enact the ghOulish
climax to his brutality at Il greater
distance from the lane and once more
the almost lifeless form was dragged or
carried farther in field this time, about
ten yards being added to the distance,
and still in a line direct with the point
of the first assault. the thornapple
bushes and the spot where the first
big pool Of blood was.
CLUB AGAIN USED.
Her head was deposited on "A little
grassy hummock and the club was
brought down with awful force against
the right side of the head, crushing the
skull as if it was an egg shell and
knocking the head from the hummock
to Il point two feet distant, as the
blood on the grass would seem to plain
ly tell.
At right angles with the line of blood
from the fence to the hummock. and
about twenty feet from the fence in
northerly direction about 125 feet from
the point at which the body was drop
paper wrapping stained with blood was
found standing on the ground Oh end
in the thickly knotted lower branches
of ii large thornapple bush. Why the
murderer selected this place to hide the
bottle and why he tarred at all to hide
the bottle is not easy of explanation.
Possibly it was that he saw it lying on
the road when he returned to the fence
for his club and remembering it when
the first thoughts of covering up his
crime came to him, returned to the
lane picked it up and selected distant
bush for hiding it in preference to one
of the four nearer to the spot where the
body Law.
In retreating he followed the dag
onal path back across the pasture field
towards the railroad, When midway
through the field he pitched his club
from him to the right, as far as he
could throw it, about forty feet from
the path. Continuing TO the railroad
he concluded not to go down or up the
track as each route led through a
breaker, the Hampton to the south and
the Hyde Park to the north, while the
