SEEK TWO Men
WITH A WAGON
Authorities Trying to Solve
the Camden Murder.

Camden, n. j., June 30.-In the las,
gasps of life her murderers had left
her Mrs. Mary Green, thirty years old,
struggled so that she heaved her body
from the rails of the Reading railroad
near Wllliamstown Junction and es-
capped the mutilation which 1t Is evil
dent her slayers intended. The body
still was warm when the crew of a
freight train went to the oma lying
beside the track.
The county authorities are working
on the theory that the woman was
choked by two men, who, believing
cast her upon the tracks.
An autopsy disclosed that Mrs.
Green had been engaged In a frightful
struggle with powerful opponents. All
Of her clothing was torn, and her en-
tire body was cut, scratched and bruis-
ed. There is a depression in her skull
at the right temple, which seems to
have been made by the stone of a I'm
ger ring. Her bruised knuckles and
her finger nails show that she fought
long and desperately against her as.
sailants.
Coroner Jaggard's Investigations Of
the antecedents of Mrs. Green show
that she left her home, FIVE miles from
Williamstown Junction, last week to
visit friends in Philadelphia.
Two men with a woman were seen
by several persons In WilliamstowE
Junction about midnight in a car
riage, which was being driven toward
the place where the woman's body
was found FIVE hours later. Soon aft
ar the carriage passed shots were
heard coming from the direction In
'hich 1t had disappeared.
