nounced and fled from Mormonism, de-
clares Mrs. Pulitzer was Mormon who
deserted the church and was murdered
by Young in accordance with the ''blood
atonement" doctrine. She knew Mrs. Pull
itzer az Annie Nelson.
NEW. YORK September 2O.-The ener-
gies of the whole detective force of New
York are now concentrated on the task
of running down Hooper, Young, the
grandson Of the great Mormon prophet
Brigham Young, who is believed to be
the murderer Of Mrs. Annie Pulitzer,
whose body was found on Thursday morn
ing in the Morris canal, near Jersey City.
After a thorough search during the past
twenty-four hours, it Is considered hard-
ly likely that he is still in the city, but
a relentless vigil is kept on all tratns
and ferries and bridges, and on all yes
sells leaving the port to guard against
the possibility of his escape, assuming
that he is still in hiding here.
The contingency that Young may have
adopted an avenue of escape against
which his pursuers have been powerless
to provide, was suggested by note re-
ceived by mail late to-day, addressed to
