English Order to Baldwin
Is For Big Locomotives

Philadelphia, Jan. 10. Another big
foreign order was received by the Bald
win Locomotive Works yesterday when
the British War Office ordered 125 To-
comotives to be built and delivered dur
ing the present year. The order aggre-
gates an expenditure on the part of the
British Government of nearly $4,000, 600.
All of the new locomotives will be
used for freight service. seventy ve
of them will have six driving wheels on
each side, while the remaining fifty will
have four driving wheels. In connec-
tion with Yesterdays order, it was
learned that the British Government is
in the market for additional railroad
equipment, and it was declared prob
able that the local locomotive works
would share in contracts still to be let
Only a few weeks ago, Baldwin's
closed contracts with the Russian Gov
ernlnent for the construction of 100 To-
comotives. and with the Paris-Lyons &
Mediterranean Railway for l4O locomo-
tives. These contracts amounted to ap-
proximately S7,000,000. year ago the
Russian Government purchased from
Baldwin's $50 gasoline locomotives to
be used in the trenches.

tives to learn whether anyone outside
the Colbert rooms could have heard
quarreling.
Witnesses to Murder
Detectives working to clear up the
mystery surrounding the murder, ad-
vanced the theory that one person and
possibly two, besides the girl and her
slayer, were in the room when the
crime was committed.
While they still adhere to their be-
lief that Bernard w. Lewis, of Pitts
burgh, who committed suicide in At
lantic City last Thursday night beat
Miss Colbert and afterward strangled
her to death with Il silk stocking, the
police say that discrepancies as to the
time the model was last known to be
alive and the time Lewis was seen in
u Market street haberdashery has led
to the supposition that there was at
least one eyewitness to the murder
No explanation, however, as to how
these discrepancies in time figure in
the theory that others were present
was Forthcoming.
1t was also stated that the latest
evidence obtained by the detective
leads them to believe that the crime
was committed several hours earlier
than heretofore supposed. The girls
body was discovered late on the night
of December 80 and the suppositlon
was that she had been killed the night
before. The detectives now believe
she met her death around noon or
possibly earlier on December 20.
Blackmail Motive
Another theory that is again engag-
ing the attention of the detectives is
that blackmail was the motive for the
crime. Captain Tate declared that he
had learned the details of n black
mailing plot carried out in this city
year ago by men acquainted with
Miss Colbert. He and District Attor-
ney Rotan, Captain Tate said, were in
vestigating the alleged plot to see if it
had any connection with the Colbert
mystery. The victim of the plot, add
ed, lives in a town up State and has
been summoned to City Hall. 1t is the
theory of some. the authorities say,
that Lewis and Miss Colbert were
alone in her apartments when another
person entered and attempted to ex-
tort money from the Pittsburgher
under the threat of exposure or arrest
Lewis, becoming enraged, according to
this theory, and believing that he was
the victim of plot, attacked the girl

ell, said he expected startling develop.

four wealthy and prominent business

of the alleged police graft ring" led
to the taking into custody early to-day

Chief Healey who was arrested Mon
day night, charged with extortion.
bribery and conspiracy, is free on
bonds of $4,000.
Mr.. Hoyne promised he would make
public the details of the two confess
ions to-day. He asserted that Lieut..
White, who recently has commanded
the Lake street police precinct i'm
plicated Costello, alleged to be the
connecting link between the police
and hundreds of vicious resorts in the
city, and that Costello in turn involved
Chief Healey in his confession.
While the States attorney withheld
the details of the two confessions he
charged that he had learned that for
at least six months Costello had
visited Chief Healeys home on an
average of three times weekly and
that on one occasion he was accom-
panied by Michael Heitler, a police
character known as Mike De Pike"
now under arrest in connection with
the investigation. He charged also
that Costello held daily telephone con-
versations with the police head and
that Chief Healey had visited the
alleged graft pay off, office said to
have been maintained by Costello.
