WHILE AT FIENDISH WORK

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
ERIE, Pa, Feb 9--Tho entire Erie
police force, aided by horde of pri-
yate detectives Is making "A house to
house search of Erie and the sur
rounding country to locate the ghoula
who have looted the magnificent Scott
mausoleum in the local cemetery. It
is now considered certain that the
body Of Mrs. McCullom, formerly a
Miss Tracy, member of a prominent
Philadelphia family and sister-in-
law Of the late William J.. Scott has
been carried away.
From what can be learned Mrs. Mo-
Culloms body was taken for ransom.
The interior OF the mausoloum was
wrecked, all Of the crypts having been
broken open and the lids OF three oe
the coffins smashed to see whose body
was within.
Door Fell IN With Crash.
The mausoloum was one of the fneet
IN the country. Il Is built of white
marble, with great bronze doors, and
heavy iron gates.
A woman visitor discovered one Of
the gates aiar. She touched The
bronze door and II fell inward with
a crash, having been lifted from ita
hinges The demolished collins were
then in plain view and tho cemetery
officials we're notified They sent for
Mrs Charles H. Strong. daughter OF
William l.. Scott, and the police Mrs.
Strong engaged private detectives at
once to work with the police.
Investigation showed that the rob-
bers had chiselled of the lock Of the
bronze doors and then forced an en-
trance. Mrs. McCullom's coffin was
gone
The Strong and Scott families ara
the wealthiest in this section of the
State. William l.. Scott camo hero

DELAY OVER
CHURCHMAN
Testimony in His Behalf to be
Held Next Tuesday
STATEMENT ISSUED BY
ONE OF THE WITNESSES

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL.
\ DOVER, Feb. 9.-The Senate this
morning in executive session set Tues
day next as the time for hearing tes-
timony of witnesses in behalf of the
confirmation of Philip O. Churchman
as Judge and to rebut testimony Civ
en- by witnesses called ON Tuesday by
the opponents of Churchman'S con-
firmation.
Herbert H. Ward. in behalf of the
Churchman advocates, explained to
the Senate that a copy of testimony
taken Tuesday was not received until
yesterday, and time was not available
to go over 1t and get witnesses here
today.
The testimony forwarded by the
Senate does not contain the names of
the persons giving the testimony. Mr..
Wards suggestion that Tuesday be set
for a final hearing was granted un-
animously.
The following statement explains
itself:
Il was a witness at the executive
session of the Senate on Tuesday Of
this week In compliance with a sum
mons served on me to appear at the
Senate Chamber in Dover on that
day.
There seems to be public impress
sion that I testified on that occasion
that Mr.. Churchman was not a fit per-
son to be a Judge and that I am op-
posed to the Senate confirming Mr..
Churchman as Judge.
This impression is erroneous, and
while cannot state my testimony as
given TO the Senate IN executive ses-
sion. I desire TO say that am
heartily in favor of the Senate con
firming the appointment. and that 7
know no reason why the Senate should
not confirm the appointment OF Mr..
Cburchmsn as Judge.
