REVOLVING Crime
BROUGHT TO Light
BRAKE NEAR LAUREl-MUR-
DER is THEORY.
(From Laurel Argus. }

After having been in continuous SEES
sion examining witnesses for two days,
the jury of inquest into the death of
the infant found in Reddock's field,
have succeeded in uncovering nearly
all the details of the revolving story of
the crime which was suspected when
the body of this infant was found.
The mother of the child, Minnie
Moseley, is woman thirty years of
age, with three children, the oldest a
girl of twelve years. She had been
for about a year, at intervals, an en-
ployee of the Laurel Cotton Mill, hav-
ing an aunt who resided in West End.
About year ago she came here and
secured work, bringing the three chill
dren with her Later, she left. going
to her old home in Alabama, and re-
turned without her children, saying
she had left them with a relative. After
while, the finger of suspicion was
pointed upon her, as her condition be-
come apparent, and this information
came to the authorities of the mill
On September 81, she was discharged
from the mill, on this account.
The child was born the last Sunday
in September. at night or late in the
evening, in a canebrake near the field
where the infant was found, and near
the place she boarded. No one was
present with her, from the information
at hand, although she was seen, and
excited notice after the birth of the
child.
The details of the horrible conclu-
sion of the sordid story are not all
known, but sufficient has been uncov-
cred to believe that the infant was
killed by man who was an intimate
of this woman, by striking it in the
back Of the head with some blunt IN

the waiting-room of Sixth avenue
department store, Daniel Sager was
sentenced to twenty days in the work
house by Magistrate House Tuesday.
Two of ten other young men arrested
by detectives at the same time on the
charge of flirting were sentenced TO
thirty days each. The other eight
prisoners will be tried today after
spending the night in jail in default of

Police Commissioner Waldo that while
on a shopping tour recently she had
been insulted while resting in the

The detectives were assisted by sew

places in the waiting-rooms frequented

it was said, will be extended to other
