Be Sent to Asylum.

Prosecutor John NJ. Mills OF Morris

had abandoned all idea that Frank Ruke.
who was caught by Newark detectives
near Madison. N. j.. late Wednesday,
had anything TO do with the murder Of
~'-"@ . wears ol in the
0luxen woods at Madison on October g.
".i. Dc helu. however, until every
possible clue which relates to him has
been investigated, ard then an effort will
be made to send him to an asylum, as
the Prosecutor believes the man is in
sane and that IT would be dangerous to
permit him to be at liberty.
The handkerchief which was found In
Ruke's pocket and which bore the letter
IL" embroidered In blue in a corner was
shown TO members OF the Lawrence fam
lily yesterday by County Detective Ed
ward l.. Brennan. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Lawrence. the parents Of the dead girl
said the handkerchief had not belonged
to their daughter and that they had never
seen it before. Ruke has not been able
to make a satisfactory explanation OF
how II came into his possession.
Neither of the knives found on him
was large enough to have inflicted the
wounds found on the body of the dead
girl.

Kluxen Woods" said Mr.. Mills. "and
we intend to leave nothing undone to
discover it,
Many of the detectives attached to
the Prosecutors staff and many OF
those who are working for the city

found so far is the hemp rope used to

dered to Force Wine
Upon Her.

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 13.--Mrs Eliza
beth Adams. who was employed for two
weeks as maid to Mrs. Alice Gerry Girls
void in the Griswold cottage at North
neld. was one of the principal witnesses
to-day in Orphans Court before Judge
Ingersoll In the contest to break Mrs
Griswolds will, which has been iiled by
her daughter, the Countess Claire Di
Contuhia Of Milan, Italy. The Countess
was cut off with $500, while the bulk OF
the estate, worth at one time $500. 600
but now believed to be worth less than
100000. went to Mrs. Mary III. Drisch-
man. wife of butcher and trustee of
Mrs. Griswold's property.
Mrs. Adams's testimony tended to sup
port the allegations OF the Countess that
Mrs. Griswold was addicted to the ex-
cessive use Of drugs and liquor. and was
introduced with view to supporting the
contentious OF the Countess that her
mother was cruelty treated by Mrs.
Drischman, and that the butchers wife
eNerted undue Influence in the making
Of the will. The period that Mrs. Adams
worked for Mrs. Griswold was in 1918.
and she was hired by Charles Miller. at
one time a butcher In the Drischman
shop. but lattes'ly an attendant ar the
GriSwOld cottage
She testified also that she was in
structed by Miller to give Mrs. Girls
void q white tablet every day after
luncheon, and that as soon as she had
swallowed this tablet Mrs. Grlswold
would fall asleep. and awaken in about
two hours stupid and thirsty"
'On one occasion" Mrs. Adams said,
Mrs. GriswoId complained because
Mrs. Drischman would not let her come
into room where Mrs. Drischman and
myself were sitting. Mrs. Drischman
shouted to her:
"Tf you don't shut up. I'll put you in
an asylum
This threat subdued Mrs. Griswold
and she begged of Mrs. Drischman
Please don't put me away"
Mrs. Adams said that Miller had told
her that Mrs. Griswold was not to use
the telephone. and that on one occasion

youth who spurned q $1,000.000 in
heritance from his father. James A.
Garland, has been practising ideals OF
her own in giving financial backing to
the Farmer-Labor Party in this State.
The party has failed to make good
in its financial promises, it is alleged.
and yesterday Mrs. Hale started an
action In the Supreme Court TO recover
$4,000 on a note given to her by the
party in August 1920. She also Is
suing Dudley Field Malone. lawyer
and last years Farmer-Labor can
didate for Governor, on a personal
note for $4,000.
The papers tell little about the Ma
lone note, other than that service on
him was effected while he was In the
Waldorf Astoria. In the other action,
it Is recited that Mrs. Hale was TO get
her money back in instaiments-one-
third on or before September Is, 1920
one-third on or before october l5
1920, and the remaining third on oil
before November 1, 1920.
The object of the loan, according 10
Mrs. Hale's information. was to give
the party capital to enable 1t to enter
on its work of organization and in prepa-
ration for its political activities" Will
lam John, business agent or the Up
holsterers Union. signed the note az
chairman of the party in this State. and
other signers were Nathan Fine, secre
tary Albert Hrsch. treasurer. and Mary
Gertrude Fendall assistant treasurer.
A novel way was propounded to meet
payments on the loan as they fell due

the party was to pay an initiation fee Of
fifty cents and minimum monthly dues oi
twenty-five cents. The party leaders be

did not accumulate as expected. ant

were made no part of the loan has beer
