MYSTERIOUS CRIME
Prominent Buffalo IN. w Man Nun.
dered At His Residence In
That City.
POLICE HAVE SEVERAL cLews
But a. Vet They Have Made No Ar.
rests in Connection With
the Affair.

Buffalo, N. Y, Feb. 2S.-Edwin l..
Burdick, president Of E. L. Burdick &
Co., and Of the Buffalo Envelope com.
pany. was killed early in the day at
his home on Ashland avenue. The
theory at first advanced that the crime
was the work of a burglar wal aban-
doned as the police probed deeper in
to the case, and while they claim to
have several important clews, no ar
rest has been made.
Mr.. Burdick was last seen alive the
previous night at 1O:30, when he babe
the other members Of the household
goodnight and started for his room,
apparently with the intention of re-
firing for the night. In the morning
his body, clad In an undershirt, was
found lying on q couch in a small
room of the lower hall, used by Mr..
Burdick % q smoking room. The
body was covered with a rug and q
number Of sofa pillows. The couch
was saturated with blood and the
walls and floor Of the little den were
eespattsred With Brains and Blood.
The head had been crushed with some
blunt instrument.
A thorough examination of the house
and its occupants was made. Meth
ing of value was missing. The out
side door was locked, and the spring
lock was in its place when the SER
wants got up In the morning. The
inner door was ajar. A kitchen win.
dow was partly raised, but there were
no marks OF the snow outside or up
on the window sill to indicate that
anyone had entered there. All the
other windows and doors Of the house
were securely fastened. That shat
tered the theory Of an unknown in
truder.
The bed had not been occupied.
On the table in the smoking room the
detectives found a bottle partly filed
with whiskey and the remains of a
light lunch. Members Of the family
declared that Mr.. Burdick never par
took of the food Of which the lunch
was composed and never drank liquor
while eating.
The police have found q hackman
who carried q man to the first corner
east Of the Burdick home about u
o'clock at night. After leaving the
carriage the man. of whom the police
have a good description. walked up
the street toward Burdick's house.
