belief of Chief of Detectives Henry Don
nelly of this city.
The chief received word from the New
York police giving an accurate descrip-
tion of the missing Costello woman. 1t
tallies almost perfectly with that of the
dead woman here.
Coroner Eli Mix yesterday declared his
belief that the woman. was murdered.
The dead woman, like Mrs. Costello,
was deaf mute, about 20 years of age,
with brown hair, five feet five inches in
height, wore long black coat and fur
collar, and brown hat with two plumes
in it, and black shoes.
Detective Sergeant futile was sent to
New York by Chief Donnelly to aid the
New York police in their investigation of

Hormidas Saulnier Retracted Former
Plea at Lawrence, Mass.

Lawrence, Mass, April 27.-Hormidas
Saulnier, on trial for the murder of
Henry Fl. Willis of Bradford in an Essex
street lodging house, yesterday retracted
his plea of not guilty of murder and
pleaded guilty to manslaughter This
action was taken following a. conference
between District Attorney Louis 5. Cox
and counsel for Saulnier, former District
Attorney Michael A. Sullivan, at Judge
Sisk's bench. Judge Sisk then announced
that he would pass sentence on Saulnier
on Friday.
Willis death was the result of as
phyxiation, and the prosecution attempt
ed to show that in an attempt to extort
a large sum of money from Willis, Saul
nier pried some soap out of an unused
gas jet and allowed the gas to flow into
the room occupied by Willis, thus caus-
ing his death.
Saulnier claimed that Willis was re-
sponsible for the flow of gas into his
room. Saulnier and his wife, when ar
rested in Boston, following the tragedy,
had the money taken from Willis. The
trial opened Tuesday.
