SEEK MORE LIGHT
Savanna Authorities Determined
to Investigate Berry
Murder.
SOME CLEWS TO WORK ON
Indications a Third Party May Have
Had Hand in the
Crime.

Savanna, Ill, May 26.-It has devel-
oped that the friends of Rothwell Pull
ford have kept a close watch on the
man ever since Monday. fearing that
the end which came yesterday would
be the logical result of the tragedy on
Monday. They believed that. guilty or
guiltless. the dread of public suspicion
would drive him to suicide
There are citizens who believe Pull
ford's suicide solves the Berry murder
There are others who hold that it does
not. and that instead of answering the
puzzl'ng question it but gives a glimpse
into one human heart
May Have Been Insane.
Did the suicide come from the
knowledge of guilt and the fear of de-
lection, or did it result from an unbal
anced mind. brought on by financial
and domestic worry? Did Pulford fear
the investigation into the murder of
Daniel Berry, which If it were search
ing. might reveal the tragedy OF his
domestic life, or was he merely tired
Of existence?
The town authorities are inclined to
probe the murder of Berry regardless
of the suicide of PulfoTd. Indeed. since
the death of the druggist the desire
To clear up the mystery apparently has
increased.
A reward for the detection of the
murderer of Berry may be offered by
the board of supervisors.
Val Boerner. one of the county su-
pervisors, was seen and asked if he
would request the chairman of the
board to call a special meeting for the
advisability of contributing toward the
reward He replied that if the Pulford
inquest did not furnish evidence clear
ing up the murder case he would take
such action.
Mayor w H Griffith declared that
The investigation into the cause of
Berry's death will be continued. I'VE

possible" he said.
