Deadlocked today by apparently ir-
reconcilable differences, the A. b. c.
mediators who are attempting here to
settle Mexican troubles expect to
know on Friday whether their at
tempt is to end In futility or to con-
tinue with hope. On Friday, the next
full conference of the mediators with

will be held Then Il was expected
today. either some agreement as to a

winter death AN
UNSOLVED MYSTERY

Theory
NO POISON
IN THE BODY
BY The United Press.

| BY The United Press.
BALTIMORE, Md, June 1.-THE
mystery of the death Of Miss Ella G..
Winter will probably never be solved.
Officials today are resting on their oars.
d. Meredith Reese, Jr., the manufae-
turer's agent, who was the last person
TO see the girl alive, has declared that
he believes she ended her life by
drowning. States Attorney Green. who
yesterday had a long talk with Reese,
, apparently accepts that explanation.
The only other step in the inquiry is
the chemists report of his examination.
This, it is declared will say that no poi
son was found in Miss Winters body.
And so the investigation will end.
Since the girl disappeared Thursday
night, June A. no fact has come TO light
that definitely shows how she came to
be found dead in Curtis bay the follow
ing Monday. Her body was in the
water near the anchorage of Reese's
houseboat, where she often was a guest.
II has been proven that she was not
aboard the houseboat that evening. She
and Reese went for a ride in his motor
boat. They landed at Riehls Shore, had
drink and then, by Reese's account.
went to the landing at Floods Park.
There he put her aboard the landing
stage. He turned his boat had trouble
with his engine, and heard only three
Good -byes." He did not look toward
"a al I.FN Ii ..It
That was the end.
On Saturday, when, as Reese
says, the girl was to have come to
the houseboat as a weekend guest,
there was a hue and cry. Miss VIM
ter's brother started an investigation
Reese expected Miss Winter to bring
some food. He told the brother of
her visit Thursday. The brother told
the police.
Early Monday morning the body
was found. The first autopsy was so
inefficient that the lungs were not
examined to see II they contained wa
ter, proving death by drowning. A
second autopsy was ordered and then
talk of murder began. The second
autopsy did show water, but the doc
tors declare this was natural II the
body had been in the water several
days.
Miss Winters hat was found Tues
day and did not seem to have been
long IN the water. 1t was far from
the finding place of the body.
Many clues, based on the idea that
someone around Floods resort might
have killed the girl, were run down
The inquiry was in the hands of the
Anne Arundel police. States Attor-
ney Green and Sheriff Potee did mol
ask for city detectives. They made
no progress. Now the case seems sure
to 80 down as an unsolved mystery
The authorities base their inactivity
on the fact that Mrs. Herald and Oth-
er women friends of the victim say
she was morose. She was not en-
gagged TO Reese. and he says there was
an understanding that they were not
to marry. That, according to the
women friends, was the reason for
/ Miss Winters melancholy.
AS the case stands today, the police
are doing nothing. They are willing
I to accent Reeses suicide theory,
