Is about ninety miles away. He ex-
poets to pass over Binghamton about

AS soon as Ward got his machine
tied up for the night he hurried to
the railroad station to inquire about
Fowler. He seemed surprised when
told the latter had not left Colfax.
Ward started from Patterson, N J.,
and was in the air only a minute

of engine trouble. At 9:20 ha took to
the air again, and flew twenty miles

NEW TWIST GIVEN
MURDER MYSTERY
Man Seen Flashing Roll of Bills on
Street Car and Identified as
westgate Turns UP.

Another twist was given that High
land Park murder mystery, Tuesday.
when Donald Munro turned up alive
and apparently contented with life. and
announced that he Is the person seen
on the back platform OF Jefferson
car, with a large roll of money, which
he was treating In a most reckless
manner.
Munro was seen by the bartender OF
Jefferson-ave. saloon, Tuesday
morning. The bartender told Munro
how his name had been connected
with the mystery and Munro walked
over TO the sheriff's office TO confer
with the sleuths at work on the case.
Munro's name was brought into the
case, because he left some laundry In
Ga Jefferson-ave. barber shop with his
name on II.
He was identified by Undertaken
Francis j. McCabe and several others
as the man whose dismembered body
was found In Highland Park. The
turning up OF Munro knocks endwise
the theory that the man on the back
OF the car was w. M. Westgate, who
was finally identified after fashion,
as the murdered man.
Munro's appearance does not serve
to help the case along any. 1t simply
proves that Westgate was not the
man on the back of the car. and, also,
that the man on the pack of the car
was not the man murdered.
Munro Is an oiler, and had just fin
ished season on the lakes when he
came TO Detroit. He had considerable
money, he says, but nothing like ST.
200.

SAYS ANOTHER MAN
STOLE W|FE's LOVE
J. F. Hammond Says That After "a
Years Happiness Home Was
Broken Up By Geo. Smile.

Mrs. Inez Hammond, goodlooking
and well-preserved woman OF As, was
an Interested spectator, Tuesday
morning, in Judge Donovan's court,
where her husband. John F. Ham
mond, brought suit against George
Smile, All employe of the Michigan
Central railroad, charging him with
the alienation OF Mrs. Hammonds af-
fections.
Mrs. Hammond only smiled some
what sarcastically when Mrs. Edith
Bissell took the stand and told how
Smile and Mrs. Hammond had rent
ed rooms from her and lived there
together, getting their own meals.
The Hammonds lived In st. Thomas,
Ont, where they were married in 1883.
They lived happily for q years, the
husband states, until his wife made
the acquaintance of Smile. Then he
noticed growing GOODNESS, and be-
came convinced that his wife was
paying more attention TO Smile than
she should. To avoid the breaking
up OF his home, Hammond says, he
resigned his position In st. Thomas
and moved to Cleveland, but charges
that he soon learned that his wife
was corresponding with Smile. and
he says he will produce some letters
at the hearing. About a year ago,
Hammond alleges, his wife left her
home, deserving him and their ten
year-old child.
Mrs. Bissell said that she had fire.
quently seen Smile come from his
work. and testified that Mrs. Ham
mond would meet him at the door
and they would kiss and embrace.
Hammond asks for $4,000.
