NEW CLUES FtUND IN THE
HALL-MILLs SHOOTING


New Brunswick, n T., Sept. 25. -
Several clues were found today by de-
tectives investigating the double-shoot-
ing Of the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall,
rector Of the church of ST. John, the
Evangelist, and Mrs. James Mills wife
of the sexton to support the new theory
that the couple intended to elope to the
Orient
The fate which the rector and the lead
er of his choir shared, prosecutors point
ed out, might have been hastened by
rumors which seemed to have been cir
cdisted freely among certain members
of the congregation, that the plans of
the two TO leave View Brunswick had
reached a stage Of action
All his papers and effects had been
placed in such order. by the slain rector,
detectives said they learned, that the
work of the pastorate could be under
taken by a successoc' with the least pos
sible difficulty. The books of the church
and all funds, mission and charitable
work were left in condition, itswas said,
that would have enabled a successor to
/ easily proceed with the rectors duties
+ The first inkling received by the auth
critics of an intended elopment came
when Prosecutor Stricken. of Middlesex
was informed that a relative Of Mrs
Mills udu d IelI6T IIOI1 MS IN HnIcn Sne

elope to Japan with Mr.. Hall.
Mr.. Mills, who has been frequently
questioned by the detectives of both Mid
dlesex and Somerset counties regarding
all details of the case, threw added light
on the theory of .elopernent when the re-
counted the conversation which he nov
| says took place between himself and Mrs
4 Hall on Friday morning, September Is

say they had spent the night looking fol-

night"
Neither has my wife,

Mills asked.
