Mystery Surrounds Death Of Railroad
Conductor.
Easton, Pa. Dec. 2S.-CharleJ stan
ley, Lehigh Valley railroad conductor
residing at Jersey City. was killed and
his body was found on top of freight
car. He was last seen alive by rail-
road men when he made a report in the
company's Office in this city. N1en
his train reached Bethlehem, Stanley
could not be found and word was tele-
graphed back TO be on the lookout for
him, it being supposed that he either
fell from the train or missed 1t when
II pulled out from Easton.
At Packerton. the man who conduct
ed the train from Bethlehem went to
that point, stumbled over Stanley's
body on top OF one of the cars. Tie had
been dead several hours. There was
small hole in his head. believed TO
have been caused by the conductor
coming in contact with a bridge at
Glendon, forty miles east OF Packerton.
Railroad men who knew Stanley well
do not take much stock in the bridge
story. They contend that the conduc'
tor knew every inch Of the road and
that he was too careful to get caught
by bridge and that II he had been hit
by an overhead construction his head
would undoubtedly have been crushed.
An investigation has been started.

Police Believe She Met Her Death In
Newark and Her Body Was Carried
to Lonely Pond at HarrIson--Was
Either Dragged or Strangled.
Newark. N. j., Dec. 2s.-while the
mystery surrounding the circumstances
of the murder Of the unknown young
woman whose body was found nearly
submerged in a pond on the outskirts
of Harrison, n. j.. appears no nearer
solution than when the body was dis
covered, the theory which the detec-
tives are now working on IL that the
woman came to her death In Newark
and that her body was carried TO the
lonely pond so that the real scene OF
the crime and the identity OF the slayer
might be concealed. The Newark
police are searching for the slayer, who
is believed to have met the young
woman by appointment in Newark and
then lured her 10 her death Evidence
was had that the woman was seen In
Newark on Christmas eve by William
Snyder. a carpenter, who stated after
seeing the body, that the young woman
had spoken to him in Newark on the
night before Christmas and asked to be
directed to a restaurant. He said the
woman told him that she was a
stranger.
Chief Rogers, Of Harrison, and the
detectives working under his direction,
admit that they are unable to throw
any light on the case. County Physl-
clan Converse viewed the body OF the
woman but did not perform the au-
topsy which the police hoped would
determine whether the woman was
drugged or strangled. The body shows
no evidence of struggle. The police
assert that the murderer knew the
locality where he sought to conceal the
body, as the pond is extremely difficult
Of access In the day time and only one
who was well acquainted with the
neighborhood would attempt to reach
the place at night
The woman's skirt was found on the
north side Of the river by Waterman
on a barge. It is Of the same color as
the duh red Jacket. There was rip
Of about two feet down the back Of the
garment.
The color of the skirt bears out the
story that the woman was dressed en-
tirely in red.
Later more articles of clothing were
found. Half Of a woman's undershirt
was picked up near the corner OF First
street and Railroad avenue 1t had
been cut down the back much IN the
same way as the coat had been slashed.
The garment was made Of good mater
ial. A white silk waist was found on
the Harrison side Of the Passaic River.
1t had apparently been washed ashore.
There was a long cut in II like those In
the coat and undershirt
The police. after the finding OF the
different articles Of clothing, came to
the conclusion that the murderer made
q bundle of some Of the woman's gar
.ments and threw It into the river as he
crossed the bridge. 1t Is thought that
the bundle came apart when 1t was
thrown into the water.
