The bodies were discovered by fire.
men, who responded to an alarm sent
in by boy who saw smoke coming
from the junk shop. The flames had
been kindled in a rubbish heap in one
corner of the place, evidently by the
murdered with intent to conceal his
crime. The police Of the Adams street
station say that the two men must have
been killed at least forty-eight hours
ago. The police theory is that the muir
derer returned to the junk shop to-day
and set fire to it.
Two men have been held for examina-
tion and as witnesses in connection
with the crime, Charles v, Johnson, an
.employe of the junk dealer, and Oscar
Dahlgren. 1t is said that Abbott had
auarrelled with a former employe who
had threatened to get even with him.
The murderer is thought to have placed
the pistol in Van Hasker's hand.

very quietly.
Mrs. Maybrick, accompanied by one
Of the prison matrons, entered closed

where she took a train for London.
She drove to Fusion station and from
there went to private house not fan
from the metropolis. She will remain
there for short period in order to re.
