LYNN MURDER MYSTERY.
Californian to Be Tried For Murder OF
George e. Marsh.

Salem, Mass, Nov. 2S.--With the
conclusion of the Ettor -Glovannitti
trial the Essex county authorities are
preparing for another trial that pro-
misses to attract wide attention The
case TO be tried Is that of William A
Dorr of Stockton, Cal. who is TO an
swer for the alleged murder of George
t. Marsh. an aged and wealthy resi-
dent of Lynn. '''' o. .- 60.
ON the morning of April IL last the
dead body of Mr.. Marsh was found
by the roadside in the section known
as the Lynn marshes, larger part of
which Is swept by the sea at high tide
The evidence showed that the man
had been shot To death and his body
probably conveyed by automobile to
the spot where IL was found.
A search of the personal papers Of
the dead man furnished information
that led to DORIS arrest in Stockton
about two weeks after the murder The
papers showed that Mr.. Marsh was
the executor Of an estate OF which
a woman relative In Stockton was
the chief beneficiary. Dorr the sus-
pected murderer, was the woman's
prospective heir. In the ordinary
course of events the estate would have
been finally settled within four years.
The police theory is that Dorr COM
mitted the murder in the belief that
the death Of Mr.. Marsh would result
in an immediate settlement.

three parties at that time as the Ma
tional Progressive leaders are organiz-
ing political clubs and talking of can

That Ferris will lead the Democratic
party two years hence, If he wants

the leading gubernatorial possibility az
the present time.
