Norfolk, Va, Sept. 10.-Joseph Archer a
negro. is under arrest here. charged with
the murder Of Mrs. Mary Lawless Rorsch-
ach, wife Of Lieut. Frank c. Rorschach.
who was shot and killed by burglar in
her home in Portsmouth early this morn
ing.
The police believe that the negro is
guilty Of the murder, and are weaving a
network of circumstantiaI evidence
against him. Two red marks on his hat
they declare 70 be blood splotches and not
paint. as alleged by Archer.
The prisoners shoe fits the track made
by the murderer. and still further eyiL
dence against him is given by Mrs Quin-
Tin Overman, who, sitting at the front
window of her home near the Rorschach
home at the time of the murder, saw a
man pause under an arclight. as II unde-
cided as to which way to go.
She described the clothing of the man
before being advised of the color or nst-
tern of tie clothing worn by Archer. and
her description eorresponded almost ex-
actly with that of Archer.
The prisoner was recently discharged
from the navy, and the police declare that
while in the navy he obtained knowledge
Of the life at the ROrschach home.
Taken late this afternoon TO the snat
where the murder was committed. the
police say that he first became nervous

derer is openly talked of. and there is an
element in the city worked up to a high
