WOMAN SAYS SHE HAS KILLED HER SISTER AND
 WILL KILL HER BROTHER.
CAUSES A PANIC OF FEAR
Mysterious Movement of TWO Very Wealthy Girls and Queer Messaue Sent to Their Mother Exercises the Police of Three Cities.

Atlanta, Ga. July 9.-Mystery to- night still surrounded the sending of a letter sent here from San Fran cisco signed with name of Mrs. Eloise Nelms Dennis, which said that she had killed her sister in New Or, leans and was preparing to murder her brother in San Francisco.
 Investigation by the police authori- ties in New Orleans has failed to re- veal any trace of the alleged crime. Neither has any clue been found to the whereabouts of Mrs. Dennis, who supposedly was in San Francisco when the letter received here by her mother Mrs. John w. Nelms, was written.
 Mrs. Nelms said tonight that the letter was in the handwriting of her daughter. She expressed the belief that it had not been written volun- tarily, however, and that her daugh- ter had been forced by other persons for some unknown reason to send the letter.
 Mrs. Dennis left here om June 10 for San Antonio, Texas She stopped in New orleans and was joined there on June 13 by her sister, Beatrice Nelms, who had not been able to leave here at the time Mrs. Dennis left. The following day, it was learned here tonight, Mrs. Dennis cashed a draft for $1,600 at a New Orleans bank.
 1t was explained tonight by Mrs. Nelms that the money was for the purpose of finally closing up some in vestments Mrs. Dennis had been making in Mexico. A telegram re- ceived from the two daughters at New Orleans on June IA said they were leaving for Houston, Texas, on their journey to San Antonio to close up the investments.
 A week later Mrs. Nelms received another telegram from Houston signed "E and B." which stated that they planned to stay in Houston lew udNS iOuStls MI Ss ANHiiio N@N lplained that the initials stood for "Eloise and Beatrice" her daughters Christian names.
 The last telegram received from the tive young women was on June 2S. It was dated New Orleans and signed by both. It read:
 Back in New Orleans. Am going further west"
 No further information as to the whereabouts of the two young women was received until their mother re- ceived the letter Tuesday, which was postmarked July in San Francisco, and which purported to tell of the killing of one of her daughters
 A telegram was received late today from Marshall Nelms, the son and brother, in San Francisco, by his mother. which said that he was mak- ing every effort to locate his sister

ATTORNEYS FOR MRS. CARAVAN PLAN THE DEFENSE THEY
 WILL MAKE IN COURT.
ONE WITNESS INDICTED
Man Who Informed Officers of Fur nishlng Gun to Woman Who Shot Is indicted by the Grand Jury-Gun Found in His Pocket.

Mineola, N. Y, July 9.-The battle to free Mrs. Florence Conklin Car man, prisoner iG the Nassau county jail here accused of the murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey, was started to- day by George Levy her attorney Levy began by informing District At torney Smith that he had an affi- davit from George Colder in which he repudiated a part of his testimony at the inquest. Then he attacked Ell wood T. Bardes, the insurance agent whose story of seeing outside of Dr. Carman's office window tall woman dressed in a dark skirt and white shirt waist was directly responsible for Mrs. Carman's arrest
 Both these efforts were antici- pated by the district attorney, who tonight issued the following state ment:
 "I heard the story of Colder be- fore he appeared on the stand. He told me the same story he told at the inquest, which was that when he called at the Carman home the night of the murder he saw woman dressed, in white sitting on the porch | and that he later saw this same wo- man in Dr. Carman's office. He told me he was sure he knew Mrs. Car man when he saw her.
 '1 told Colder he was mistaken. |tknew he was then and I know he is now. It was Mrs. Powell, Mrs. Car mans sister, who was on the porch and in the office
 ''As for Bardes, his story stands up well. believe he is telling the truth"
 Mrs. Carman broke down today. The jail physician prescribed nerve sedative and by the time her husband arrived to assist the physician she was calm once more.
 The grand jury, after meeting to- day, adjourned until Tuesday to give the district attorney more time to prepare his case. But before 1t ad- journed it indicted Meyer D. New man for carrying a revolver. New man, who says he is a leader of a band of New York gunmen, is the man who told District Attorney Smith that George Anderson, mem Der of his band, carried a revolver from New York to Freeport and back again after Mrs. Carman had used it to shoot Mrs. Bailey
 A revolver was found in Newman's pocket today. He was arrested, pleaded guilty and was remanded for sentence. He may be given the maximum sentence-seven years in jail.
 Unless other arrangements are made, Mrs. Carman will be taken to Freeport Monday for a hearing be- fore a justice of the peace.
 District Attorney Smith tonight de- clared he was not sure he would allow Mrs. Carman to tell her story before the grand jury. If he does, she will be forced to sign waiver of immunity, he said.
 Bardes was arraigned today before a justice of the peace and held in S2 ,000 bail as a material witness. Frank J. Farrell, alias Callen, also was held under $1.000 ball. Farrell is tramp who said he was at the Carman garage the night of the mur- | der. He told the authorities he heard a crash of glass and saw a woman walk rapidly from the west side of 1 the house, where Dr. Carman's office is located, around and back and then toward the front on the east side.
