Chester, Pa.-Placing a ladder
against the side of the residence Of
James Carr, a Norwood policeman
thieves entered the house by a sec
ond story window, and ransacked
Carr's bedroom, where he was sleep
ing. The burglars took Carr's trous-
ers. in the pockets OF which was HIS
gold watch and wallet containing
$25. They also gathered other booty
before they were interrupted by the
barking of a dog. This awakened
Carr, but the men escaped.

The captive manifested relief at my

their order. Elsie, sharing with Dutch
the honors of the night, lay on a dav-

ages, and turned to me laughingly.
"Elsie's injuries are not serious;
only disagreeable bruises in the face.
There will be no scars, I'm sure.
Wen keep her at the house for few
days until she's quite fit again. Sure
ly any one who has questioned Elsie's
loyalty ought to be satisfied now"
"YOu certainly managed it very
cleverly, Elsie. We're all very CRATE
full"
Elsie, her face covered with band
ages, acknowledged my thanks by
weighing her foot.
Mrs. FarnswOrth said she would put
Elsie to bed. Now, l thought, Alice
would make some sign If she knew
anything that would explain Montani
and the prisoner in the Toulouse. But
the whole affair only moved her to
laughter and she seemed less a grown
woman than ever in her white robe.
My efforts to impress her with the
seriousness of the attempt to secure
the fan only added to her delight.

"Well. you've got to-"
Geissler has Iashed himself into a
frenzy, according to other chauneurs'
by continually enyying the wealth
and position OF his employers and the
other guests at the Hotel Griswoid
While he usually contrived TO put
on a docile and respectful manner In
their presence. he frequently came
into the chauffeurs' quarters In

to Fenton, when a men accidently

made a scene, charging the guest
with jostling him purposely.
"He had a brainstorm," said Fenton.

Geissler habitually gIoried in
fancied tributes to himself when he
was not engaged in magnifying
Sights, according to Fenton. He
would come in on some occasions
bursting with conceit because Mrs.
de Cordova had ridden in the front seat
OF the machine when she was the only
passenger. In these exalted moods,
after something had occurred to
fiatter his vanity he would call Mrs.
de Cordova his wonderful madame"
Fenton said. /
Another important development in
the investigation of sensational trag-
edy, was the admission by Mrs. Geiss-
ler that the quarrels which led to her
husband leaving her last month were
over Mrs. de Cordova. These quar-
rels, she said, began last October,

Mrs. Gelssler. who arrived here at

parted with the body OF her chauf-
feur husband on the 4;62. O'Clock
train, admitted frankly that she had
had several. disputes With, her hus'
band over Mrs de Cordoya.
Last October. Mrs. Geissler told
the reporters. she found two photo
graphs of Mrs. de Cordoya In her
husbands pocket. together with an
envelope containing a lock or chest-
nut brown hair. Her own hair ~
nearly black. She said:

time when called Mrs. de Cordova
on the telephone and asked her II she
would not try to bring about recon
ciliation between me and my hus-
band. 1 thought she would have
great influence with him"
SHE QUOTES PROVERBS. -
Mrs. GeissIer was asked what reply
Mrs. de CordoNa made to her plea.
"She as much as told me to do
whatever / thought best was the
reply.
At this point she quoted two
proverbs: "A guilty conscience needs
no accuser." Still water runs deep"
"Silence gives consent The widow
refused to say how she intended
these words to apply to the stu
