FIND DRIVER IN
ELWELL CASE
Chauffeur's Story May Show
That Turfman Went
Straight Home

NEW YORK, June 24.--A new
figure Of mystery appeared in the
Elwell murder mystery yesterday
with the brief announcement that
George H. Walters, negro taxicab
driver, of 210 West 18th street,
drove Joseph Bovine Elwell home
about 2:30 o'clock on the morning
Of Friday, June II.
Assistant District Attorneys Talley
and Dooling said last night they had
no official information Of this de-
velopment, which. II true, places the
murdered turfman in his home six
hours before he was discovered,
fatally shot. in the reception room.
WENT STRAIGHT HOME.
According to the Story, the negro
chauffeur was driving his 'fndepend-
ent" taxi along Forty-second street
about 2 o'clock on the morning Of
the murder and was hailed by a man
in evening clothes whose description
answers that of Elwell. Walters,
according to the story, said he rec
oshIzcu ClWell from photographs
published recently.
He drove the whist wizard from the
New Amsterday fheater building to
Sixty-sixth street and Broadway,
where his fare stopped him to pur-
chase a copy Of a sporting newspaper.
He then drove to No. 244 West Sew
entieth street. arriving there about
$3.50 a. m.
This story would mean that Elwell,
after parting from the Lewisohn din
ner and roof garden party at about
1:40 a. m. on the Forty-second street
curb. went Immediately home. Ac-
cording to the story, Walters was
positive in his Identification of q
photograph of ElweI1 which was
shown to him, and his description of
his fare before seeing the photograph,
was complete. He said Elwell paid
him rs cents for the ride.
