Not Seeking Third Suspect.

by the police that they are not look
ing for a third person as suspect in
the case. They are most ANXIOUS to
md half a dozen persons, one of
whom Is q white girl. to question as
witnesses. The girl in question is
known to have been a close friend of
hen Sen WI. the youngest victim. and

lice believe she could furnish them

Wu's habits and friends She is said
10 be a professional dancer and is be-
ing sought in New York She is not
believed to have been in Washington
for several weeks.
Aside from the lines upon which
they are working the police have fol-
lowed numerous others sug gested. by
individuals who offered various
theories or what they believed to be
tips One of the former was the
possibility of a double murder and
suicide as the solution of the mystery.
but no credence is placed in this. IL
is clearly disproved by facts in the
hands of the police. Another is that
the assassin Was professional gun
man hired for the occasion by those
who planned the robbery and mur-
deTs.
