MYSTERY DFFPFNS
IN SIGEL MURDER
Investigation Indicates Girl
Slain Day Sooner Than
Date First Fixed
Thorough Search Through New
YOrk's Chinatown Fails to
Find Leon Ling

NEW YORK, June 27.-On the ninth
day after the discovery of Elsie Sigel's
body and presumably the eighteenth
day after the crime was committed, the
New York police are obliged to admit
that they are further than ever from
Ling, the Chinese who is thought to
have killed her.
The most significant fact of the case
is that there is absolutely nothing to
indicate when or how Leon Ling left
the city. However, every house in
Chinatown has been searched room by
room. and every wall and floor sound
ed. No isolated laundry or restaurant
has been overlooked.
The information coming from New
ark yesterday that Leon Ling left the
trunk in a restaurant there has been
substantially confirmed with slight
alterations in details and hours; but
it only makes the case more puzzIing
1t appears today from the books of the
Lawrence cab company that Lii Sing,
the restaurant keeper, did accept the
trunk, and that he kept ii In his place
for IL hours, although he has denied it
Police investigation shows that the
trunk was taken to Newark between
midnight June and a. m. of June 10,
and remained there until the afternoon
of June 10. This places the time of
the murder a day ahead of the time
previously fixed by the police and on
the same day that the girl disappeared
from home
