Body of Helen Brown Discovered in
Carriage Yard.

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 1.-THE
discovery of the body of Helen
Brown 13 years of age. under truck
in the yards of the Whitman Car
rage company today reveals one of
the most horrible crimes in the his
tory Of the city. The horrible reye-
lations have aroused the citizens of
that section Of the city to a high
pitch of excitement and they would
undoubtedly take the law in their
own hands and make short work of
the wretch If apprehended and his
guilty established. Black finger
marks on her neck show that the
girl had been strangied and an exam
ination OF her person showed that
she had been horribly abused and
her person outraged by the iend who
assaulted her. 1t is most brutal
case Of murder and the officers are
making every effort to find some clue
to the perpetrator or persons who
committed the crime.
