yesterday noon, lay I'm a corner of
his fathers back yard for five
hours before IL was discovered by
his father, III. o. Burton, superin-

coma and did not learn of the ac-
cident until he returned home at
8 o'clock in the evening and found

could not be located, the care of
the body was left to Justice Magill

POLICE FAIL
TO GET CLUE
To MURDER

BALTIMORE, Md, June 10. -
Lured TO the lonely upper reaches
of a little creek, and there slain
under cover of a drizzling rain is
the weird and fascinating theory
of the prosecution I'm Baltimore's
girl murder mystery strange
and battling case that has stirred
the whole east with feverish In
terest.
The body of Ella G.. Winter, the
stenOgrapher who vanished after
meeting her sweetheart, Capt. ID.
Merideth Reese, jr., aboard his
houseboat, fails TO disclose the
slightest clue to the manner OF
her death. Her body was found
I'm the water, but the autopsy re-
vealed no water I'm the lungs.
Traces of poison, too, are absent.
Ella @. Winter is dead. How
did she die?
The best physicians in the east
cannot tell. She was not drown
ed, she was not strangled and fall
ing off a pier while experiencins
an attack of heart failure is out
Of the question. Reality defies fic-
tion to produce a stranger case.
The girl is dead, undoubtedly
murdered, but her Staying was &C
complished with such fiendish in
genuity that the best minds in
the medical profession are at a
loss to know how il was done.
Truly, it is a case for a Sherlock
Helmes.
Reese, the last person to see
her alive, has been released. John
Rice, a negro cook on Reese
houseboat, has been arrested, but
no evidence against him can be
found.
The girl went to spend the
weekend on the houseboat with
Reese. On the last evening of
her visit Reese, who is a we'll
known zach tsman and lawyer OF
this city, took her for a trip in
his motorboat before landing her
at the pier.
He was the last person to see
her alivei And he has been ex-
oneratedi

love with, but told her he would
never make her his wife. He as
serts that there NAV be soms
grounds for a suicide theory, but
declares he was not the cause.
A year ago there might have
been cause for jealousy" he said,
but not recently. There was no
other girl"
Reports say there was another
girl aboard the houseboat the
night Miss Winter disappeared.
Friends of the girl say they heard
her declare that she felt despond-
ent because she had no hope OF
becoming Capt. Reese's wife.
