MYSTERY DEEPENS
REGARDING CAUSES
Of JERSEY DEATHS
Relieve Minister and Woman
Not Shot Where Found;
But Where Then?

New Brunswick. n. j., Sept; 1S.--
(Rv The Associated Press) .-Unsuc--
cessful search among many clues and
conflicting details was made Monday
bv the detective staffs of two coun-
t;es tbe local police and seven state
poIice to establish definitely the scene
of the shooting to death last thursday
night Of the Rev. Edward Hall, rector
of the Protestant Episcopal church OF
St. John the Evangelist, and Mrs.
James Mills, wife of the sexton and
choir leader in the church. :,
The bodies of the two, bearing bullet
wounds. were found side by side on
Saturday. in an old orchard in Somer-
set county. Authorities of Somerset
have expressed the belief that the two
had been shot elsewhere, and the
bodies brought to the orchard and
laid out under the apple tree IN an
effort to draw closer the veil OF mys-
terv which nantes the double shoot
ing. e
fonr witnesses. residing in the vicinity
of the field. who reported hearing
screams and gunshots on Thursday
night, has strengthened the belief that
the two shooting occurred in the rustic
setting where the bodies were found.
Eyes on mystery House"
With this new testimony fixing to a
certain extent the sceen of the crime,
attention was drawn to vacant house
on tract of land adjoining the
orchard. This house has been known
for some time as the mystery house.
1t is said to be rented is fully fur
nished, and yet is untenanted. All
efforts TO trace through real estate
agents those renting the house are
said. to have failed. A superficial
examination is said to reveal that the
house may have been recently oc-
cupied, though no one has been known
to have made his residence there for
some time.
No new figures were brought into
the investigation Monday of the double
shooting. Detectives were assigned to
investigate certain remarks of William
Stevens, brother of the rector's wild
ow. Stevens has admitted, according
to the police. that he remarked few
days before the shooting of his broth
er-in-law that something big is going
TO happen soon.
Mills Home Is Searched
a thorough search was made by de-
tectives of the Mills home, When
they arrived they found written on
the front door in round hand, which
the police said might have been done
by a woman. the quotation:
BLESSED are the departed. No.
1871"
The inscription was not on the door
on Saturday, said the investigators,
who expressed the belief that it re-
fers to a hymn and may have some
bearing on the case.
The Right Rev. Albion V. Knight.
Protestant Episcopal bishop of New
Jersey, aided by more than a score
of clergymen. conducted the funeral
services for Hall in the church which
he served as rector. A vested choir
assisted in the regular episcopal sery-
Ace. Services will be held Tuesday

STEEL MERGER CALLED.
OFF BY HOSTILITY
Independents Abandon Three-company
Consolidation as Trade Commission
Doubts Legality

New York.-Announcement was
made here that the proposed merger
of the Inland Steel company, the Mid
vale Steel and Ordnance company and
the Republic Iron and Steel company
will not take place. The decision was
due, 1t was said, to the action of the
federal trade commission in holding
that such q merger would be Illegal.
A statement setting forth the rea-
SONS for the decision was issued by
W. Fl. Corey, chairman of the board
of the Midvale Steel and Ordnance
company, John A. Topping, chairman
of the board OF the Republic Iron and
Steel company, and L. e. Block, chair
man of the Republic Iron and Steel
company.
The decision to abandon the three
company consolidation. which was to
have been known as the North Ameri-
can Steel company, raj strengthened,
it was said, by the unwillingness of
bankers to finance the merger in the
face of the federal trade comissiou's
ruling.

GEORGIA SOLON IS
CALLED BY DEATH
Senator Watson Dies Suddenly at
Washington From Attack Of
Asthma

Observation-Disclosures States Senator
Thomas Z. Watson of Georgia, died
suddenly at his home here. Death was
said to be due to an u attack of
asthma, from which Senator Watson
had suffered recurrently for some years.
Although failing health had inter-
rupted Senator Watson's attendance at
ena sessions frequently in the last
few months, he was In his seat when
the senate adjourned. He vas sc years
of age.
Although having served only a short
time In the senate, Senator Watson's
orntory and fiery attacks on legisla-
ton he opposed added to his national
prominence gained in his home state.
He was a strong advocate of a bonus
for former service men and another
of his strong policies was advocacy of
release of men convicted during the
war under the espionage act. He
wrote President Harding and made
many speeches favoring a general am
nesty for such prisoners.

Athens.-King Constantine, bowling

abdicated ard Crown Prince George,
who married Princess Elizabeth, of
Rumania, becomes king of Greece.
"Until the people say they wan me

cepts this swift revolution as the
voice Of the people.
Oddly enough, II was the former
American battleship Idaho, now tho
Greek Lemnos, that started the revolu-
ton. In 1913, Greece bought the Idaho
and the Mississippi. The Idaho was
named Lemnos. The Mississippi was
named the Kilkos after a famous battle
against the Bulgarians.
The revolutionists announce that
they will proclaim their choice, Of a

The revolutionary movement, which
is said to be led by General Gonatas,

The instruction which, while not
altogether unlocked for, broke out in
formidable force with unexpected sud
denness, had its inception among the
vanquished troops brought rom
Smyrna to the island of Mytilene and
Chios, and among the soldiers Mt Sa-
loniki. Strangely enough, however,
these two reyolts seem to have had
different objects. the former aimed at
the overthrow of the government and
King Constantine, and the latter at the
defense of Thrace against the Turks.
