Assassin of Skinner
 May Have Been One
 Who Knew His Habits

Detectives are still working day and night in an effort to locate the man who killed Louis 4. Skinner, aged 6S' of 167 Black Rock avenue, Saturday night on Couse street, near Garden.
 The police are working on the the orv that the man who killed MT skinner was someone who knew his habits. and was watching for him to come from the store.
 This theory was further strength ene,1 through an interview with the clerk who waited on MT. Skinner at the store of the Atlantic and Pacific Tea company, South Park avenue. This man stated that there was no one in the store at the time the nlur- dered man was there, and that he paid for his purchase with a S2 bill. and received his change for it. He showed no other money in the store.
 The clerk stated that he went to the sidewalk to bring some goods into the store. and that he was sure that there was no one anywhere on the street at the time MT. Skinner left the store, This leads the police to believe that the man responsible for his death was waiting for him behind the billboard.
