Ogden l.. Mills, treasurer OF the Repub-

Terence In Syracuse earl ythis week on
the same matter.

Mr.. Barnes In behalf Of MIR. Human" he
said. "overstate the strength Of the lat

ecker at 1879 Mott street Bits OF infor-
nation gathered at Garrison. where, It
was known from "A brass work check
found on the dead man. he had been EN-
ployed, made Inspector Faurot question
those at the stable.
Paul Szuckowitz was the first to recog-
nize photographs Of the dead man. He
said he had known the man both as
No. "10e" and as Martysewitsch.
Szuckowitz told Faurot he had last seen
the man on December Il. lie was In
good health then despite the fact that
the autopsy showed the man suffered
from pleurisy. Martysewitsch had $50.
Szuckowitz said he advised him to send
It to his father in Russia. that he might
come to this country. They went to-
gether 60 bank and the order was sent.
Then Martysewitsch left with him a
small boxlike valise. saying he was go

hcation.
An anonymous letter was received at
Police Headquarters saying tfat man
whose name was given and the writer OF
the letter killed the Russian because Of
something that happened a month before.
Inspector Faurot made II clear that In
his opinion no proof has been obtained
thus far that the man was murdered.
