DREW SUITCASE
 YIELDS NEW CLUE
tcontinued from First Page.)

when the girl checked the case, she was accompanied by male companion
 District Attorney OBrien believes that fl the girl was not murdered in Troy she was lured to Teal Pond by someone who took her from Troy in a buggy or an automobile and made an attack on the girl at the edge of the lake. There are many jagged rocks bordering ot the pond near where the body was found, and the district attor- ney thinks the girls head may have struck ono of these rocks while she was struggling with her assailant, anf that the blow either stunned or killef her.
 District Attorney O'Brien admits that the statements made by Frank Smith, tho young man who claims to have met Hazel on the Taberton road at 7;30 o'clock on the night of July r. are un, satisfactory. Smith lives on farm near that of William Taylor, Hazels uncle and he was one of those who as sisted fin taking the murdered girls body out of 'ho water. He told the district attorney that he had been pass ing along the road at the time and had been hailed and asked to assist At that time he made no suggestion that tho girl might be Hazel Drew. Neither did he tell the district attorney about meeting the girl on the road the Tues day night previous.

Sharkey proprietors of Squirrel Inn, would have been burned to death. The children were playing on the hay mow in barn In the rear of the Inn when a quantity of hay which blocked the door of the barn caught fire from sparks from nearby brush fire. The children Jumped from the mow onto the barn floor, but the fire in the door prevented their es- cape. Miss Nelson heard the chil- drens cries and grabbing a rake pulled the burning hay away just in time to prevent the hay in the mow from catching fire.

LOOS IS WILLING
Will Accept Nomination for Representative If Party
 Demands It.
SENATOR TWO YEARS HENCE
Does Not Believe That Voting Ma chimes Will Ever Re Introduced
 in This City.

Alderman Emil Loos of the Eighth ward stated last.night to the Journal Courier, that while he had given no positive answer to the approaches of his friends asking him to run for rep resentative on the republican ticket this fall, he would accept the nomina- ton If he saw that 1t was desire of the delegates to the city convention Mir. Loos said, however. that when he accepted the nomination it would be with the understanding that he should have the nomination for the senate from the Eighth district two years hence
 MT Loos has maintained all along that he would be candidate for sen ator should Frank S. Butterworth de- cline to run again. It Is generally be- lieved that Mir. Butterworth will run for another term at least, and MT. Loos Is willing to wait two years.
 Last night MT. Loos incidentally stated that he did not think that vot- ing machines would ever be installed in New Haven. He added that he thought that at the present time be- cause of the expense alone 1t was im- possible. Going on he said that the lnstallment of the machines would mean the disfranchisement of 20 per cent. of the voters. because of the lack of knowledge of many who go to the polls. Mir Loos said:
 The point may be brought up that those who are too ignorant to use a voting machine should not be allowed to vote, but I do not think that voters should be dlsfranchised in this indi- rect manner. I should be very glad to have a law passed making 1t neces- sary for a person to be a resident of this city ten years before he Is allow ed to vote, but I do not think that the right of voting should be taken away by the installation of voting machines"

SELL CUTLER BLOCK A Touch Of
Buyers Names Not Divulged in Deal Now in the
 Works.
BANK DID NOT WANT IT
County National Never Made Offcr for Property-Aiiss Phipps
 Away.

A very important real estate transfer Involving a building on the great cen tral corner of New Haven Is in pro- cess of completion and Is held up by the necessity of the approval of the superior court being given for the transfer, The property involved is the Cutler building, a lvestory brick block at the southeast corner of Church and Chapel streets. Application was made in the superior court yester- day by Miss Lima Phipps, who is trus- tee of the estate for permission to sell and a lis pendens has been recorded. The deal cannot be completed, how ever, until the trustee, Miss Phpps, has been granted permission by the court to sell and this will probably not come until the court comes in next September. Meanwhile the lis pendens gives formal notice of the deal which is in progress of completion.
 There is a good deal of mystery sur rounding the transfer Who the buyer or buyers are Is not made public and so far 1t has been impossible to find out who the parties are. Miss Phippt is out of town for the summer and ihe application was made through Talcot' II. Russell as attorney, but he is unable to divulge any information as his knowledge comes to him through hi; professional position and so becomes c secret with him. The lis pendens d. vulges nothing. The property is owned by Miss Lena Phipps of this city, Ed ward II. Phipps of New York and Eve lena T. Jones of St. Louis.
 | Although the statement was publish ed last night that the New HaveT County National bank has held an op ton of the property and was still con sidering the purchase of 1t, 1t was stat ed most emphatieally last night by th' president of the bank that the banl had never held any option on the prop | erty and was not considering its pur pose and that there was not particle of truth in the assertion, He said tha | last fall the property had been offered | to him and when he learned the pric' which was asked he had at once turn ed the offer down and 1t had never beer considered since.
 The price for which the property f to be sold Is likewise not known It i assessed at sl4o,oOO There is a frontag of IS on Chapel street and 60 on ChurcI street. The structure Is five stories higl with two stores on the ground foo and offices above.
