FAILURE TO IDENTIFY
GIRL ADDS TO MYSTERY
Suicide Theory About Aband-
oned by Officials in Crum
Greek Case

Chester, June 24.-If some person
would identify the body of the woman
found last Tuesday i'm Crum creek, near
Leiperville, the Delaware county au-
thorities believe they could make some
headway in clearing up the mystery
that surrounds her death. For, though
both County Detective Berry and Cor
oner Fry are inclined TO accept the
theory that the woman committed sui
eide, they admit that there is still
enough contradictory evidence to make
the case a possible murder.
When the body was found it was
thought that Identification would be
speedily made. The dead woman's fea-
lures We're I'm good condition and the
description of her apparel was COM
plete. 1t was reasonable to suppose
that her relatives and friends, missing
her, would make every effort to in
vestigate repore of unknown woman
found.
Though many persons have called at
the Chester morgue to see the body.
none could tell who the woman was.
With her identity a secret a hundred
and one aids to deduction are elimin-
ated. and the police are confronted with
the same difficulty they experienced in
the case of the charred skeleton found
in BucHey's meadow, near Essington,
about a month ago.
One possible clue to the identity of
the body, on which the police had
placed some hope was spoiled last
night by a despatch from Baltimore.
which stated that Mrs Annie Meekins.
JIG Kenwood street. that city, who dis
appeared in Philadelphia a week ago.
after a visit to Mrs. Sturgin. 1915 Co
lumbia avenue, had returned to her
home. Mrs. Sturgin read the descrip-
tion of the body found in Crum creek
and declared that in some respects it
tailed with that Of Mrs, Meekin's
Another jarring feature i'm the case
is that the womans features show al
most unquestionably that she was of
Irish descent. The note found on the
tree near which the body was discov-
cred was evidently written by some one
of German birth, as many of che char
acters are in German script. 1t is this
note which has supported the suicide
FL theory. Being written in ink il was
evidently penned at some other place
than the spot where it was found.
An examination was made today to
discover whether or not the woman's
stomach contained traces OF poisoning.
Even should this be found to be so. il
would not be of much help in deter
mining whether she had been muir
bered or had taken the poison herself.
A mans footprints were found yes
terday in the soft ground along the
bank of the creek, near where the body
was found. The marks lead to and
from the water and are sunk deep in
the mud, as If made by an unusually
heavy person or one carrying a heavy
burden.

Chicago. June "A. - United States
Senator Thomas c. Platt Of New York
ana J. Platt Underwood OF Chicago
have been made defendants in a 3d.
100000 damage suit filed here by
James Donovan, n Chicago attorney,
who is the surviving member of the
lumber firm of Donovan g. Co, cor
poratlon doing busiIWss in Wisconsin
and Michigan. Donovan asserts that
Plat and Underwood. who are officials

After the praecipe IN the case was

publican national convention was in

ator Plat. In the meantime Senator

and came back TO the Auditorium no
tel, where after a wait Of nearly an
hour they gained admittance TO Sena-
tor Platts room, and the summons was
served.
According 10 Donovan, Senator Plat
and Mr.. Underwood as officials Of tn,
Tioga company figured in the illega
cutting Of timber on tracts of land in
Lincoln, Langdale. Forest, Oscoda and
Newaygo counties. Mich. Donovan's

about ten years ago It was three ol
four years after Bakers death that the
alleged fraud by which Bakers widow
and children are declared to have suf
/ fered was discovered
When seen later Mr.. Underwood de
/ clared that Donovan's talk OF illegal
cutting of timber on his land by the
Tioga company was nonsense.
Il admit that Baker, whose partner
Donovan claims 10 have been" said
Mr. Underwood, chad a tract Of land

PREPARING ELEVATED
Trains Will Probably Run on Overhead
Road BY AUGUST.

Trains probably will be running over
the elevated railroad in this city be-
tween Fifth street and Todd's cut by
the first of August.
Work on the high bridge over the
Brandywine is being rushed and on
both sides of the stream swarms Of
workmen are getting the overhead
tracks completed so as to have them
finished by the time the bridge is ready
to run over.
AS soon as the new structure is ready
the old surface bridge will be removed.
When the draw of the new bridge is put
In place it will be impossible to turn
either of the bridges until one is re-
moved. When the surface bridge is
taken away freight handling about the
city yards will be seriously interfered
with. The only approaches to the ele-
waited are at Fifth street and Shellpot
bridge II will be necessary to go on
the overhead tracks to be able TO cross
the Brandywine and the handling Of
cars will be a much greater task
