HALF DOZEN THEORIES
FOR MURDER SLEUTHS
No Tangible Clue Develops in
Mystery of Miss crispeIrs
Death at Wifkesbarre.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, July 9-The
police and county authorities who are
trying TO solve the mystery surround
ing the death of Miss Alice Crispell,
the eighteen -year-old daughter of a
farmer. whose body was found floating
in Harvey's lake Monday, are today
working on a half dozen theories, none
Of which has as yet given a tangible
clue.
Herbert Johns. the mine worker, who
was the last person seen with the girl
last Friday night. and who is in Jail
on suspicion in connection with the
case, maintains his calm demeanor. and.
despite the efforts Of the police and
county authorities to get from him a
different version. he sticks to the de-
tails of the story he has told about
the last night he was with the girl.
One Of the theories the authorities
are working on is that Johns may
have had rival for the hand of Miss
Crispell.
In the letter Johns wrote to the girl
Sunday. after she had been missing
two days. and which was made public
YESTERDAY. he mentioned a man named
"Canney.' This turned out to be Har-
rison Cam of Wilkesbarre, who, when
questioned by the police, said he knew
nothing about the circumstances of the
death of the girl, and, further, express
ed the belief that Johns was also inno-
cent.
Police Investigating Report.
The police are investigating the re-
port that the girl was to favor the
one who first swan across the widest
part of the lake, a distance of about
two and a half miles.
Search is being made for a third
man who was said to be interested in
Miss Crispell to learn If he can throw
any light on the. death of the girl.
Friends of the Crispell family are
not so sure that she was murdered,
some of them advancing the theory
that she may have fallen into the lake
accidentally.

Committee Gives Hearing.

The District committee heard arguments
At length today both for and against the
nomination of Mr.. Newman. His oppo-
nents charged that under the law he was
not qualified as resident OF the District
10 serve as District Commissioner. They
presented claims that during the last
three years. the period specified in the
law for actual residence in the District,
Mr. Newman had registered at Baltimore
and Chicago hotels as coming from New
York and Chicago. They referred to his
own statement regarding his leaving
Washington In 1871, and claimed that ac-
tual residence as interpreted by the franz
ers OF the law governing the District
meant physical inhabitation- They pre-
sented affidavits showing that Mr.. New,
man had registered in a Baltimore hotel
as representing the United Press Asso-
citation. with office in New York.
Mr.. Newman himself appeared before
the committee and declared that when
he came to Washington in 1910 1t had
been his firm intention to become res
ident of the District of Columbia. and
that he had been firm in his intention
ever since. He said that the character
OF his work-newspaper work-had
caused him to move to Chicago and
other places. He said that when he
made his contract with the press asso-
citation by which he has been employ ed
and went to Chicago 1t was with the
understanding that after the campaign
he should be returned to Washington
Mr. Newman declared that I'm register
Ing at Baltimore and New York hotels
he had given his business address for
business purposes and had no intention
OF claiming residence at either Chi
cago or New York. He wound up with
the statement that the best evidence o1
his intentions to return to Washington
was the fact that he had returned

also appeared before the committee and
spoke strongly in favor of his confirma

Opponents First to Appear.

The committee first heard the oppo-
nents Of Mr.. Newman. W. j. Neale,
chairman of the home rule committee
introduced 10 the District committee F.
Edward Mitchell. an attorney, who spoke
for the opponents of Mr.. Newman Mr.
Mitchell declared that he and his friends
raised no objection to Mr.. Newman on
grounds of his character-that they had
the highest regard for him personally
Mr.. Mitchell said that their objection to
Mr.. Newman was that he was not a bona
fde resident OF the District as demanded
by the law relating to the appointment
OF Commissioners.
At his request c. C. Lancaster stated
that he had examined the lease made by
Mr.. Newman Of an apartment April last
and that Mr.. Newman had given no resi-
dence. in fact. had told the real estate
agent that residence was of no material
interest Mr. Newman later denied any
recollection OF such a statement on his
part
Mr. Mitchell declared the records did
not show that Mr.. Newman had ever paid
property In the District. or that he had
ever owned any property here He also
offered an affidavit, signed by w. ]. Neale
and Charles 5. Eisinger, to the effect that
a Baltimore hotel register signed by Mr.
Newman June. 1912. gave the information
that Mr.. Newman hailed from New York
and that he was registered as a repre-
sentative of the United Press Association
with an office In the World building New
York. Mr.. Mitchell also said that he un-
derstood Mr.. Newman had registered In
New York at the Hotel Judson IN No
yember. 1912. as coming from Chicago
The witness testified that letters sent
to Mr.. Newmans address here after he
left in 1911 had been returned and thar
a summons in suit in the MunicfnaI !
Court could not be served. He declared
that the Chicago directory of 1912 gave
Oliver r. Newman a resident OF tha I
city. Mr.. Newman later declared that If
his name was put in the Chicago directory
il was without his knowledge.
Mr.. Mitchell was questioned by a num-
Der of Senators. Senator Kern OF Indiana
pointed out that he himself was not in
Indiana the greater part of the time but
that he was still a resident OF Indianapo
lis. Senator James made the point that
actual residence in the law did not mean
inhabitation. With this statement of Sem
ator James Mr.. Mitchell did not agree
lie declared that actual residence meant
physical presence. but he admitted that
a resident might go away for short
vacation. Mr.. Mitchell declared that Mr.
Newman had become identified with the
city Of Chicago. as shown by his name
appearing in the city directory. Mr.. New
man In reply said that while he had his
newspaper headquarters in Chicago. ne

ALMOST EQUAL TO CHICKEN
Salad Made From Leftover Portions
55.4s Of Veal Joint VIII Be Found
Most Acceptable.

After all available slices have
been cut from the cold roast veal, and
Just before the remaining bone goes
into the stew or soup pot, there Will
be usually few choice bits OF white
meat to be cut from portions here
and there which will make a perfect
substitute for chicken salad On days
when poultry is cooked little OF the
fat can be skinned from the richest
stock or saved from the roast or
fricassee. This, favored with little
of the juice Of chicken meat and
thoroughly cooked can be put away
IN a sealed jar or jelly glass for
havoring purposes. Chop the veal
Into small bits, mix with the favored
chicken fat in quantity sufficient to
flavor the veal, and add to this an
equal amount OF chopped celery. pre-
pared carefully by removing the
stringy portion and leaving only the
tender. Juicy interior. Where the
meat portion Is deficient a little crisp
lettuce broken into bits ls sometimes
an addition, saving some Of the per-
feet leaves In which to place the
filling. Make a mayonnaise dressing
I by using the yolks Of one or two
eggs. according to quantity desired.
and beating In, drop by, drop, SUM-
Client olive oil to thicken to the con-
sistency OF heavy cream. Any hard
boiled eggs left can be utilized to
|; improve the salad, the white cut into
lstrips for the filling and the yolks
rubbed to a paste and added to the
mayonnaise. Season dressing with
salt. lemon juice. cayenne. few
drops onion juice, celery salt and
some OF the chicken flavoring.
Mix some OF the mayonnatse with
the meat filling, pour into the Care
fully arranged lettuce leaves that
line the salad dish; put some extra
nayonnafse on top or reserve to
serve with each portion, chill and
garnish with the white tips of celery.
This makes a delicious. dainty and In
expensive salad; perfect substitute
for chicken filling. and can be pre-
pared entirely from leftovers II the
precaution is taken to save the
small amount Of chicken, fat and
davoring required. Z

BEST WAY TO MEND GLOVES
Neat and Durable Method Outlined
Here, IL Worth Most carsful
Consideration.

A neat and durable method OF mend
ing kid gloves Is to buttonhole around
the edges OF the tear or hole in the
glove before drawing the sides Of the
worn place together. The mending
stitches will not then be SO likely to
tear out.
1 When cleaning white kid gloves. put
one Of the gloves upon the hand (the
other hand must be left free to do the
work. and immense In basin Of gaso-
line. Wet a small soft brush with the
liquid and rub upon it good white
soap. Scrub the glove gently with the
soap and gasoline, rinse In clean gaso-
line and hang In the shade to dry.
Treat the other glove In the same man.
ner.i The rinsing gasoline may be re-
turned to a separate bottle for future
use in washing, but not rinsing gloves.
The soapy gasoline is, of course,
thrown away. Gently pull and stretch
tine s.ssa,, after they are dry, before
attempting to put them on the hands.
