PHILADELPHIA. Pa. Nov. "A
startling development early today IN
the case OF Mrs. Margaretta Todd
strange death was the admission by
detectives that they are looking for a
cabman who has been missing from the
accustomed stand in front Of the Read
ing Terminal station since the evening
when the aged woman came here TO her
doom
The Importance which the police at
tach 20 this mans disappearance IS evil
denced by their unwillingness to discuss
the matter of his description or place of
residence. That a cab figures promi-
neatly in every official theory as TO the
supposed crime IS admitted.
Theory OF Death.
The detectives believe that Mrs. Todd
was met upon her arrival here by two
men, who lured her into a waiting hack,
killed her in the vehicle by crushing her
ribs and breastbone while struggling to
force knockout drops past her lips.
and dumped her body upon the railroad
tracks in the park.
James 1 license. night carriage agent
for the UnlCn Transfer Company, at the
Reading Terminal. said today that he IS
positive that Mrs. Todd passed him be
tween two men shortly after o'clock
/ last Friday evening. He says his atten-
I ton was attracted to an old woman as
she was emerging from the terminal

was rather astonished at so careless q
display of so many stones of evident
