to be his dead body was found in his
cell as soon as the officers remember
ed their responsibility. Yet tradi-
ton has always prevailed that the
fire was a part of a conspiracy by
means of which Colt could escape and
a substituted body be placed in his
cell.
A case of comparatively recent
date. the scene Of which was within a
stones throw Of where the Sigel girls
body was found. was the murder of
Rev. Father Kaspar, the Armenian
priest whose body was found in a
trunk in West Thirty-seventh street
tenement house on May rs, 1907.
The crime was at first attributed to
members of the Alfarist section of
the Hentchakists, an Armenian po-
litical organization. But later 1t was
pretty we'll established that robbery
was the motive for the murder. The
room in which the priest was slain
had been occupied by several Armen-
ians who disappeared before the
trunk and its CHASTITY contents we're
discovered. No trace Of the suspects
were ever discovered.

MANY NOTED TRUNK
MYSTERIES

New York, June 28.-When Leon
Loo Linn, after his butchery of Miss
Elsie Sigel, sought to hide his crime
by packing her mutilated remains in
a trunk, he but followed a precedent
established by numerous murierers
whose crimes are famous in the po-
lice annals of America. The famous
Maxwell-Preller case still lives in the
public mind, though more than TWEEN
ty years have elapsed since the crime
was committed. Preller, an English
man, murdered his travelling compan-
ion and left his remains in a trunk
in a st. Louis hotel. The murderer
was captured and after a trial that
attracted International attention he
was convicted and executed.
Probably the most sensational of
the so-called trunk murders with
which the New York police have ever
had to deal was the case of John c.
Colt, who murdered a man to whom
he owed money. Having attacked
his creditor with weapon which was
at hand and killed him, Colt put the
body in a trunk and shipped it to
New Orleans.
All of the wealth of Mr.. Colts
brother who was the inventor OF the
revolver and who made a great for
tune in manufacturing that and other
arms, was at the disposal of the coun-
sci retained for Mr.. Colts defense
These chief counsel retained many of
the small political lawyers. They
reached out all over the city, both
for general and probably for specific
defense, hoping possibly that some
friend of some one of these lawyers
might be found upon the jury.
But Colt was convicted and was
presumed to have committed suicide
an hour or two before execution. At
the hour set for execution in the
Tombs fire broke out in the upper
part of the Tombs and in the con-
fusion, Colt was for few moments
forgotten What was said to be, and
In fact what was generally believed
