Letters to SLAIN Girl Furnish a
Cleo to a Mysterious Strange

a tear was brushed away, and as the train
moved slowly out of the station the little
band turned and walked away.
NOT AN ELKHART BOY.
The two young men named Church and
Thomas. of Elkhart, were in Bedford dur
ing the past two weeks and Miss Schafer
the murdered girl. had once or twice spoken
to Mrs. Smith her landlady, of the two.
Neither Church nor Thomas is suspected
by the police or citizens of being connected
with the crime, but it is believed that some
one not residing in Bedford, committed the
murder. One of Elkhart's young men took
Miss Schafer to the theater while in the
city.
Milton Schafer, 4 brother OF the dead girl,
made the following statement to the Jour
nal correspondent: 1T is absolutely alb
surd that the names of F1lkhart boys should
be connected with the mystery. They were
nothing but friends. They would no more
have killed her than l."
Prosecutor Miller, of the judicial circuit of
Monroe and Lawrence counties, will come
from Bloomington to Bedford tomorrow to
conduct the inquiry.
Additional evidence was found to-day to
show that there was desperate struggle in
the shed between Miss Schafer and her as
sailant The police pointed to the fact that
the gloves worn by the murdered girl had
been torn from her hands. One was lying
under the cab and the other just outside the
shed door.
There is an unusually large crowd on
Bedford streets tonight. Many quarry
men are among the crowds, and If ar
rest had been made to-day there would
have been an attempted lynching tonight
beyond a doubt. All discussing the
murder. Attra ctiOns at the theaters are
not patrOniZed and business is almost at
a Standstill. JOSEPH WIENER.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Jan. 23.-The
stories from Bedford that Miss Schafer
had been receiving anonymous letters or
had any secret correspondence is incompre-
hensible to those who knew her at the
Indiana Normal. 1t was said to-day that
no one here believes it possible that a love
affair could have had any part in the trag-
edy. A large reception of the Women's
League of the Normal set for tonight,

schoolhouse just south of town and arrest
ed after long chase. One, man with
red hair and mustache resisted and drew
a Colt revolver on the police, saying he
would not be taken alive. When cOrnered
he attempted to escape and was captured.
The fact that Miss Schafer, murdered at
Bedford, just south of here, had red hair
in her hands when found, and that the
man resisted so desperately aroused the
suspicion of officers and he is being held
on a trespass charge until the circum-
stances can be investigated further. He
gives no name and came from the direc-
ton of Bedford.
