Heller. KY, July 9.-(SpeciaD- The
most VIVID and the most startling muir
der suspect that ever confronted the
public is battling the Elkhorn City po-
lice. A man came running out OF the
house calling upon the police exclam-
ing that he had sat down on bed in
a pool of hot blood. The guilt of the
murder, apparently seems to rest up
on an Italian who had small store ad
joining the house in that city He and
a dozen others were arrested and taken
into custody by the police and removed
to the Pikeyille Jail.
AS each day passes the murder mys-
terry grows deeper, more mysterious
and cannot be solved. The Big Sandy
river is being dragged and dynamited
in hopes of discovering a body. 1t is
generally believed that the victim was
thrown into the river. Great excite
ment prevailed IL Elkhorn City when
a thousand or more people arrived III
connection with the probe of the muir
der suspect.
1t is reported that 1890 was found
on a woman in the house where the
blood soaked garments were sound,and
this is adding to the suspicion that a
horrible murder was committed. 1t Is
thought the victim is travelling man,
as one was seen at the house at a late
hour and he has not been accounted
for yet
The mystery that is shrouding the
multitudes is, Who is HR rdered, ana
where is the body" and Ia there any
travelling man missing.
