FIND MOTIVE FOR
DOUBLE MURDER
Aged Mrs. James Abused by
Fiend Before or

PHILADELPHIA Jan. 2s.-All Ches-

der OF Henry James, a farmer, almost 60
years old. and his wife. whose dead bod
les were found with the heads crushed
IN lying near the barn on the James
farm near Newfown Square. Chester
county. yesterday shortly before noon.
The couple had been felled with an axe
and after they lay unconscious and dy-
Ing on tho ground the murderer beat
their heads almost into unrecognizable
masses with a heavy stone. Then. as
tho cap stone Of his fendishness, he at

feet away.
His awful work completed. the muir
derer took the axe and stone he had used
70 slap the old couple and washing both
carefully. hid them IN a wood pile near.
By Then he vanished as completely az

leaving the slightest clue 70 his iden.

For hours after the bodies had beer
found and the authorities notified, there
seemed TO be no motive for the murder
omcers worked entirely in the dark. The
home Of the aged couple, though the real
door facing tho stable stood invitlngls
open, had not been disturbed IN any
way. There was almost no evidence Of
struggle about the place and the husband
had some $50 In his pocket, WI e the
wife's gold watch and a small sum OF
money IN the pocket OF her dress had
not been disturbed.
This condition disposed OF robbery
