NEW YORK, June 19.-That
Elsie Siegel, aged 20, grand

today. This belief is founded on
hundreds of letters located in the
Room OF Leon Ling, where the body
was secreted.
b The police think the Chinaman
committed the crime to free him.
self from the girl, as one letter
written by the girl under date of
June 9. reads:
You seem to be growing cold
towards me; just think of the sac
rifioe l made for you--family,
friends. everything; for Gods sake
don't forsake me now"
It is apparent that the body has
been in the trunk for over a week.
Deep marks on the throat indicate
that the girl was strangled to
death. Ling, the girls lover. is
missing. It ia thought the girl met
the Chinaman, who speaks English
finently, while engaged in slum
work.
The girl disappeared June 10,
and her .body was located by
means of an envelope addressed to
her from the room in which the
trunk containing her remains was
found. The room is over a Chinese
restaurant in the tenderloin dis
trict the keeper Of which, Sun
Leong. has disappeared.
The murdered girl was the
daughter of Paul Siegel. and be-
came interested in the Chinese
through a Celestial whom she met
q number of years ago while he
was managing q cane rack at an
amusement park near her fathers
house. This Celestial is believed
to be Leon Ling. and is said to
have afterward visited the girl at
her home. and through him the
young woman became interested in
slum work among the Chinese.
Three Chinese have been arrest.
ed as possible witnesses. They
gave the names of Yeo Kim. man

CALH0(JN'S
FATE WITH
THE JURY
Heney Closes in Plea That
Masonic Influence
be Withheld.
(By United Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, June 19.-For
the first time since his trial COM
menced five months ago. Calhoun
is nervous today as time for the
jury to retire draws near.
When Heney resumed his closing
argument today he appeared
stronger than on the two proceed
ing days. A small crowd was In
the court room today.
Heney, hoarse, but still fighting
with hs old spirit, wound up prob
ably the most effective and sincere
argument ever made before jury
in criminal case in this state. He
seldom turned his face from the
jury as he scored all the alleged
false charges made by the defense.
He appealed to the jurors not to
let any fraternal prejudice inter-
fere with them in finding q verdict.
In his argument he read q long
speech Of Charles A. Woodruff,
high Mason, made before the Gold
en- Gate Commandery' lodge last
Christmas, and told the Masons on
the Jury that If they did what the
defense wanted they would violate
the teachings Of their order. He
said the man who used the cover
of Masonry to corrupt a brother is
deserving Of the condemnation Of
every man. Heney then spoke
about the cruciflxion of Christ, and
said of Calhoun:
But this debaucher of our pub
lie officers. was not crucified. He
sits here defiant, clothed in wealth
of ill-gotten gains secured by brib-
cry of public officials. Helms was
Mason. If he perjured himself
would you have anything to do
with him? ! remember well that A..
A. Moore in his address said he
hoped Francis Heney would live a
long life. That, coming from
Moore, made me only more pre-
cautious to keep from being shot
in the back or dynamited while I
slept"
Referring to the supervisors, he
said:
These men are not all hardened
criminals, despite the fact that
they took money"
The case went to the jury at
11:49. Concluding his argument,
Heney said:
"You Jurors have but one con-
sideration before you when you re-
tire to deliberate. This is, that
you may leave there and go home
with full conscience that you per-
formed your duty to God and man.
! leave the case in your hands, con-
fidently expecting San Francisco
will have no reason to question the
conscientiousness of your verdict"
The jurors retired to an upstairs
room in Carpenters hall and the
court ordered the police to drive
people away from In front of the
building. The Jurors plunged into
the work, not taking time for
lunch. District Attorney I.angdon.
after court adjourned, warmly
thanked Heney for his services.
Heney went home to await the de-
cision.
