WHO KNOWS MRS. MOORE?
The mystery of a woman who killed |
touches Honolulu. Mrs. Hammond
Moore is said to be her name. The
first known of Mrs. Moore's movements
is when she arrived at the Hotel Savoy
in this city on January 27. She said
that she had just come from Honolu-
lu, but she registered from New York.
On January 30 she sold trunk con-
tanning much rich wearing apparel to
a second hand dealer. She then went
to Stockton and there took poison and
died. The papers have made a great
sensation of the matter as the woman
""' 'ucHtiHeu DIS various people VINO |
afterwards turned up in the flesh. She
was woman about fifty years old,
and had evidently once been in supe-
FLOR circumstances. A jeweler here
says that she sold much of her jewelry
last September, when she was posses
sed OF number of valuable diamonds.
II is not believed that Mrs. Moore came
from Honolulu, although it IS barely
possible.
