TWO MEN NOW SEEN IN MURDER MYSTERY
Latest Witnesses Corroborate
 Statements Of Mrs. Gibson

New Brunswick, N. J., Nov. S.--lBy Associated Press)-Spccial deputy at- torney Gen. Mott prosecuting the Rev Edward Wheeler Hall and Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills today announced two men hitherto unmentioned ip the case had some forward with testimony cor roborating the story of Mrs. Jane Gibson who claims to have witnessed the tragedy in De Bussy lane the night Of September 14.
 This statement by Mir Mott was coupled with an announcement of his determination to hold off presenting his evidence to the grand jury until next Monday to afford him oppor- tunity to grill the new witnesses and round out the evidence upon which he will seek indictments.
 Yesterday, before this latest devel- opment, 1t had been intended to con vene the grand jury on Thursday or Friday of this week.
 The authorities were frank to admit that the two men whose names they declined to divulge have thus far failed to indicate they saw the actual murders, They do, however claim to have seen the two automobiles de- scribed by Mrs. Gibson.
 According to Mir Mott the two men were standing in De Russy lane only about 20 feet from the Easton avenue entrance when MT. Hall and Mrs. Mills met death beneath the crabapple tree where their bodies were found.
 M x. Saw Strange Cars
 They saw the high bodied" car described by Mrs. Gibson, standing a short distance up the lane, with Its 'blinding headlights turned away from them say the authorities. They also tell of seeing the runabout dash mad ly up sEaston avenue slip into the lane and park near the touring car, its lights dimmed.
 They did not see the woman in gray" described by Mrs. Gibson, al- though they were somewhat nearer the scene than she astride her velvet footed mule claims to have been when she halted on the opposite side of the road silent witness to the murders.
 MT. Mott would not reveal how these two witnesses happened to be in Dc Pussy lane whether they saw Mrs. Gibson during her nocturnal peregrination; how much they saw or what occurred while the automobiles were parked only 20 feet from them l or what has kept them silent during these eight weeks of frenzied effort to dig away the mystery surrounding the | tragedy.

house refused today to attach to
the independent offices appro-
priation bill an amendment to pro-
hibit the shipping board from pro-
ceeding with the reconditioning of
the LeViathan without obtaining an
appropriation from congress for

ment which would have placed a
81 100000 limitation on the amount

out congressional authority.
Refitting of the Leviathan, 1t was
said, probably would cost at least
$S,O00,000.
The Graham proposal was re-
iected by a vive voce vote after the
house had adopted an amendment,
offered by Representative Balm
