Arrest.

The mystery which envelops the finding
of the body of a baby in a sem-mummi-
fled condition in a satchel in the garnet
of house at Takoma Park, Md, may
be cleared this afternoon by an arrest
according to Sheriff William E. Welt OF
Montgomery county.
The gruesome find was made by Mrs
Henry Scherger Wednesday morning. The
Schergers purchased the house and
moved into it recently. Mrs. Schergel
was attracted to the garnet by an odoI
which she traced to An old-fashioneG

first glance to be nothing but bundle OF
dirty rags, and it was not until an at
tempt was made to burn them that it was
discovered that the numerous pieces OF
