MURDER HiNTfD IN
BUlF|NCH MYSTERY
Husband of Missing Woman
Suggests Her Body Will
Be Discovered
Second Marriage on Tenth An.
niversary Attributed to the
Strength of Affection

OAKLAND. Oct. s0.-No light has
yet been thrown upon the mysterious
disappearance of Mrs Annie Bulfnch,
wife OF A. s. BuIdnch, OF 699 Forty
sixth street, who has not been seen by
her husband since she accompanied his
brother, who was on HIS way to Reno.
New. to the train at Point Richmond
last Monday morning.
Bulfinch's first report to the police
was based on the suspicion that his
wife had been persuaded to elope with
his brother, but he has discarded that
theory and is convinced that Mrs. Bull
finch has either been murdered OF has
died from exposure. Early this morn
ing he called up Captain of Police
his wife's body would be found on the
shores of the bay near Point Rich
mond.
She was in such a highly nervous
condition for several days before she
left home that / feel certain she must
have wandered away from the depot
after leaving my brother, and I am
morally certain that she was either
murdered or came to her death from
exposure" declared Bulhnch at police
headquarters today. He was also in a
highly nervous condition and showed
the effect of constant worry since his
wife left him.
My home life always has been ey-
tremely happy" said the distracted
husband, "and l am conscience strick-
Ell for having even intimated that my
wife had been untrue to me. Now |
am convinced that I was wrong, and
that she has met with some terrible
fate.
Just to illustrate how happy our
home life has been, on the tenth ami
versary of. our wedding. the first of
last July, we went to San Jose and
were remarked merely to Illustrate
the strength of our affection
When pressed for a reason for the
extraordinary remarriage ceremony.
Bulfnch persisted that IL was merely
designed to emphasize their love. De-
tectives are still at work in an effort
TO trace the movements Of the missing
woman.
