RIVAL TO BuRDIck CASE
Murder Of Young johnson in Baltimore
an Unsolvabie Mystery.

Baltimore, July S.-The case of ].
Mortimer johnson, said to have been
murdered Few nights ago, bids fair to
Vie with the Burdick case, among the
long list of rnsolved mysteries.
If the young mans father Joseph G..
Johnson, or Charles Sheeler, the man
of-all-Worli, or Mrs. Susie Suter knows
anything of the actual manner Of the
young mans death, each has been able
to secret 1t, despite the most searching
third degree methods of the detectives
and the extended inquest of the coroner.
There was abundant evidence before
the CorOner's jury to show that the
young man had certainly not contem-
plated suicide. So far as known only
the young man, his father and Sheeler
We're in the house on the night of the
tragedy. Two pistol shots were fired
and if the theory of Mrs. Lady Durette
the dead mans sister, is we'll founded
there was a scuffle in which the young
man was badly scratched. Then after
the shooting the young mans body was
carried up two flights of stairs to his
room, Immediately above that of his
father. Yet the other two occupants Of
the house declare they heard no noise in
the night.
Mrs. Suffers frequent visits to, and
nearly constant companionship with.
the elder Johnson, and the bitterness of
the son toward her, were the common
knowledge of the neighborhood, and yet
Mrs. Suter sought at first to deny them.
There had been Quarrels between the
father and son on account of Mrs. Suter
and the young man had ordered the
woman from the house, but she paid no
attention to his wishes.

While the members. of the Sports

they have thought of other things than
the mere pleasure and joy of life, for
their thoughts have turned to those OF
the sadnesses which come in the course

During the greater part of the day,
Tuesday, and this forenoon, coterle
of men, who are more or less prom1-
nent in the affairs of Maine, held
central place in the wide veranda of
the hotel and talked. Central in this
party was Governor I.leWellyn Powers
of Houlton. 1t would be more proper,
perhaps, to say Congressman, but the
other comes easiest. In the circle
around was Hon. w. c. Cobb of Rock
land, who has aspirations which most
people of the State are acquainted
with. A. II. Day of Bangor, collector
of customs of that port and who has
been accused of knowing more than the
first three letters of the alphabet of
politics, and Hon. VIM. Engel, ex-may-
or of Bangor, was also in the group.
