I'VE shall catch the murderer. De-
lay does not alter that, although II
chafes us. The whole country is one
vast rat trap, with every exit guard
ed.
THE girl was killed between 10
o'clock in the morning and noon of
July and we believe Leon Ling is
the man who did it, with Chung Sing,
his intimate, as a possible accom-
plice. We have Chung Sing. From
his room in Eighth avenue Leon Ling
went straight to Washington and
there sent the don't worry telegram
signed Elsie" received on the night
of the murder by the Sigel family.
From Washington he returned to
New York and somewhere about mid
night, June 8, took the body in a
trunk to Newark, arriving there about
2 a. m. on June 10. We don't know
how he took it. That leg of the
journey has not been accounted for.
All available records of the various
taxicab companies have been searched,
but there are many privately owned
machines which keep no records. A
chauffeur who had made such a trip
would be more than likely to have
taken hush money.
Unable to dispose OF his trunk,
Leon returned to New York with the
body on the afternoon of June 10 and
left it in his room. From that moment
we lose all trace of him. So far as
we know, he had no other possible
accomplice than Chung Sing. We do
not know what became of the clothes
not found on the body. There is no
evidence to show that they were ever
taken to HARLEM.
mo other murder that can remem-
Der has attracted such wide interest
or such enthusiastic cooperation on
the part of the police of other cities.
All the forces of the country are
working as one great machine. We
have fifty men of our own in the
cities of the east.
THE only possible ship on which
Leon could have left the country is
due at Yokohama on July 3. She will
be watched. The man cannot get out
of the country. II he is alive, we
shall catch him."
All the Chinese laundries in the
city, which are operated by four
companies in the name of individual
managers, received notices yesterday
in Chinese from the owners warning
employees that they must have moth
ing to do with white women, beyond
business over the counter, on pain of
dismissal.

UNCLE SAM DROPS

Removes Last Obstacle TO f.
nanCing Holding Company

Washington, June 25.-Attorney
dismissal of the government suit
against the New York. New Haven
and Hartford railroad for alleged vio-
lation of the first two sections Of the
Sherman antitrust law.
The passage of the Boston railroad
holding company bill by the Massa-
chusetts legislature is given by the at
torney general as the principal rea-
son for the dismissal of the suit. An
other reason is because the Massachu-
sets supreme court decided that the
New Haven road cannot legally have
trolley holdings in the state and had
removed that issue.

Clark, the 17-year-old leper who re-
gently escaped from the Camden, N.

Of correction of this city. The boys
crippled hands and his missing eye

Clark said that after escaping from
Camden he made his way to Paramount

out there. He was arrested by park
guard and sent to the house of cor

FOR IMPEDING JUSTICE
Jury ConVicts Arthur Heinze, One of
Copper Pool Leaders

New York, June 27.-Arthur P.
Heinze, one of the brothers whose
banking and copper operations have
been under investigation since the
collapse of their copper pool, was
found guilty last night by jury of
corruptly impeding the administration
of justice in Withholding the United
Copper company's books.
Sentence was suspended by Judge
Ray until Oct. IL, the court declaring
that by holding this sentence over
Heinze's head "as a prod" he might
be induced to bring about the restora-
ton of the missing books.
Judge Ray last night pronounced
sentence in the case of Robinson. The
lawyer escaped with a fine of $3.50,
added to which, however, was verbal
flashing from Judge Ray.

ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN.
Not a Blood Disease - Cured by

Oil of Wintergreen Compound.
For many years eczema was
supposed to be a blood disease
and was enormously treated as
such, but now the best authorities
agree that eczema is only a skin
disease and must be cured thru
the skin. The eminent skin spe-
cialist, DR.. ID. ID. Dennis, first dis
covered the eczema germ and his
discovery was quickly taken up in
both Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at
the same time heal the skin, DR..
Dennis compounded oil of winter
green, thymol, glycerine, etc. The
remedy is a liquid, not a mere
salve, hence il sinks right into the
pores of the skin. Washing with
this oil of wintergreen compound
seems to take the itch away at
once; soon the scales drop away
and the disease disappears. j. Nj.
Taylor. The prescription has now
been used so long as to have
proven its absolute merit and we
do not hesitate to express our
confidence in ID. ID. ID. Soap.

WILLIAMS WARNING
Aliens to Be Subjected to Close seru-
tiny at Port of New York

New York, June 29.-The commits
sioner of immigration for this port is
so dissatisfied with present conditions
that he issued a letter of warning to
all trans Atlantic steamship COM
panies. Mr.. Williams complains that
recently somtimes as high as 80 per-
cent of immigrants have been held for
special inquiry.
Too many aliens, he says, are
coming to this country with INSULT
cient funds. In the absence of statu-
tory provisions, the commissioner
thinks each individual should have at
least $25 cash, besides his ticket to
his destination. All persons in any
way likely to become charges of the
nation will be turned back, he says,
and official scrutiny of incomers is
to be made more and more searching.

Warm Welcome Extended Archbishop
O'Connel, on Return From Rome

Boston, June 29.-Most Rev. Will
liam H. O'Connell, archbishop of
Boston, returned home from his off,
cial visit to Pope Plus X yesterday af-
ternoon.
His Homecoming was the signal for
a marked show of affection on the
part of the clergy and laity, who ex-
tended him a welcome that was most
enthusiastic and at the same time
strongly tinged with the respect and
generation which the 1900, 900 Ro-
man Catholics of New England feel for
him as their spiritual leader.
For two hours before the arrival of
the Romantic the street leading to the
pier in Charlestown was crowded with
people, all eager to get glimpse of
the archbishop.
On the pier were the priests dele
gated by the committee of 100 clerics
to greet the archbishop, together with
the executive body of the laymen's
committee.
