New York, June 24.-Rumors and
conjectures as to the whereabouts Of
Leon Ling, the young Chinaman who
Is sought by the detectives on charge
of having killed Elsie Sigel, continu-
ed in abundance today. There was
also fresh crop Of theories as to the
motives which had prompted the
crime and as to the exact manner of
its commission, but in spite of almost
hourly rumors of the capture of the
missing Chinaman, in almost every
quarter Of the United States, there
was nothing tangible upon which to
base clue of any use in tracing
down the murderer.
The advanced state of decomposi-
tion of the body when found preclud-
ed any autopsy or examination to
show what the cause of death had
been. The theory of Quon Yick that
the girl had died from an overdose of
chloroform administered by Leon
cannot be confirmed, as the handker-
chief which his roommate, Chung Sin,
declared he saw over her mouth, has
disappeared.
The finding of two letters written
by Leon to Chu Cain, whom he re-
garded as his rival in the affections of
the Sigel girl, in which Leon threat
ems the life of both Chu Cain and the
young woman, is the first evidence OBJ
tanned as yet to show the motive OF
the tragedy. Both these letters
which are in Chinese and signed
"The Chief" were today shown to
Chung Min and readily identified by
him as having beeh written by the
fugitive. The text of these letters has
not been revealed but 1t is known
that in them Chu Cain is threatened
with violent death unless he discon-
tinues his attentions to Miss Sigel.

and ill-usage for years.
Visited by Son and Brother.
A son and brother of the condemn
ed man arrived in the city and paid a
visit to the penitentiary. The meeting
was cool one and there was little
emotion shown by the visitors who
have decided to stay in the city till
the end If the condemned man so
wishes. The son, who is about 35
years old, with a wife and six chill
dren and the brother, both came from
Butte. Montana. and are deeply mov-

have become connected.

verse to having the hanging take
place at the penitentiary and is en-
deavoring to have it transferred to
the r. N. w. NJ. T. barracks at Fort
Saskatchewan. A hanging in peni-
tentiary is said to be without a pre-
cedent in Canada, and the matter will
be taken up with Hon. Chas. Murphy,
acting minister of justice. and @. W.
Dawson, inspector OF penitentiaries.
on the occasion of their visit to the
city. In the meantime Sheriff Robert
son, to whom the duty of the execu-

cure his services. Radcliffe was in
Edmonton at the time of the hanging
of King, the Peace river murderer. in

Brakeman Ashton ran ahead during
