Story of Robbers Killing
Miss Reed Was a Fable.
HER SWEETHEART SHOT GIRL.
Story of Threatening Letter and
Poisoned Candy Now Believed
to Have Been Part Of
Murder Plot.

Baltimore, March 1O.-Under search
Ing questioning by the police John j.
Mueller confessed that 1t was he who
shot and killed his sweetheart, Miss
Regina Reed, and that there was no
truth In the story he told Immediately
after the shooting, to the effect that
he and Miss Reed were held up at a
lonely spot near Mount Washington by
highwaymen, who, after securing
Mueller's money, demanded necklace
worn by Miss Reed.
In his first story Mueller stated that
in response to this demand Miss Reed
slapped the face Of one of the high
waymen and that thereupon the fatal
shot was fired.
Following the investigation Of the
coroner, Mueller made and signed a
statement in which he said that when
the electric car upon which he and
Miss Reed were riding reached Mount
Washington Miss Reed, whose mar
riage to him was set for April Ia,
said she must leave the car.
They did so. and after they had
walked short distance, the girl pre-
ceding him, he thought he saw man
emerging from behind tree and, be-
lieving himself to be in danger, fired,
but owing to the unsteadiness of his
aim the bullet struck and killed Miss
Reed.
Mueller's story is not accepted by
the xDplice, who say that the killing
waS Spremeditated. They believe that
Mueller wished to break on his en-
|gaeepaept to Miss Reed, but had not
|;tlle e0gIR sell heE aQi ~ 40 e
Detectives say that the place where
the shooting took place was dark and
that highwayman could not have
seen the necklace worn by the girl
and that for the same reason Mueller
could not have seen the alleged high
wayman's pistol glisten, as he claimed
Further, as against details Of Muel
ler's confession, there are no trees al
nor near the scene large enough tC
conceal man. Miss Reed was shot
twice, and three witnesses testified
that there was an interval of at least
two minutes between the shots.
Mueller and Miss Reed figured re
Gently in an episode in which an anon
ymous threatening letter and boz
of poisoned candy were incidents.
A letter which Mueller said he re
ceived threatened him with harm II
he did not cease his attentions to Miss
Reed. He also claimed to have beer
made Ill by eating portion Of the
candy, likewise received by hin
through the mail, which was found t.
have been poisoned.
The police believe that Mueller SEN
both the letter and the candy to him
self and that even at that time he was
planning to get rid of Miss Reed.
