.SEEKELWELL
LADY |NGRAY'
Married Woman Who Created
Scene at Florida Resort
Known to Police.

NEW YORK, June 21.-A ciga-
rette butt and a mysterious woman
in gray furnished clues today upon
which detectives worked feverishly
in their efforts to solve, the mystery
Of the murder of Joseph Bovine FL
well, turfman. international bridge
whist expert, and man-about-town.
The cigarette butt was found upon
the uantelpiece in the room of Ell
wells luxurious home at 244 West
Seventeen street, where the turfman
was shot.
1t is believed TO have been smoked
by the murderer, as IL was a cheap
American brand, whereas Elwell
smoked cigarettes of Turkish to-
bacco expressly made for him. The
butt was still moist when Elwelrs
body was found. II is being examined
under a magnifying glass for finger
prints.
The woman in gray is supposed to
be married. She is said to be the
same woman who created a scene at
Florida resort when she taxed
Elwell with trying to break of their
friendly relations. The district at
torneys stan has learned that Elwell
told the woman they would have to
separate because her husband was
becoming aware Of their intimacy.
ADMIT .sMOkE SCREEN" CLUES.
While the detectives admit them
selves absolutely in the dark. ii was
declared that some of the reports of
clues had been discussed for publica-
tion in newspapers for smoke screen"
purposes. They hoped thus to mis-
lead the murderer into the belief that
false leads were bein. .ollowed.
Joseph s. Elwell. aged father OF
the slain turfman. accompanied by
his attorney. visited the mystery
house today. and took an inventory Of
the contents. The lawyer carried
away with him two suit cases flled
with papers which. he said. might
throw some light upon the identity
of the murderer.

Of my life and every ceat I own to

One theory of the murder devel-
oped from the cigarette discovery is
that the murderer walked about the
