Shooting Done by Someone
Deeply Interested In Slain
Couple, Officials Believe.
By UnIvsrs.l service.


NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., Oct.
1.-THE bold and aggressive move
Of Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall,
widow Of the Rev. Edward w. Hall,
who was found slain with Mrs.
Eleanor Mills, his pretty choir
leader, in demanding that Governor
Edwards appoint a new directing
head in the mystery investigations
brought an immediate retort today
from Detective George Totten.
Detective Is Hot. ...
.'of course Mrs. Hall Is suspected
of knowing who committed the
murder" he said, and then In the
heat Of anger over the unexpected
move Of the widow. he added:
"The shooting was done by some
one who was deeply interested in
DR.. Hall and Mrs. Mills"
Then Totten went on to say that
when the bodies OF the murdered
couple were found the eyelids Of
the rector were carefully closed
while those Of Mrs. Mills were
open in a wild stare.
New Probe Likely.
Indications are that an entirely
new and independent investigation
will be instituted by the attorney
general, who will appoint the best
criminal lawyer in New Jersey al
his deputy.
Joseph e. Striker. prosecutor Of
Middlesex county. said:
AT the request Of Prosecutor
Bekman, I accompanied him to the
office of Charles w. Parker, supreme
court justice. Here we Joined in

the attorney general into the Hail.

. "Of course, It would be unethical
for me to reveal what took place at
the conference or to express an opin.
ion as to what action think Judge
Parker will take"
Mr.. Strikers statement was gener.
ally accepted to mean. however, that
he and Mr.. 'Beekman intended to
step aside and permit Attorney Gen.
eral McCran to start the murder In.
vestigation all over again. From
now on. State troopers, who have
been on the scene for some time. viii.

the probe.
Hayes vindicated.
Clifford Hayes. who was charged
with the murders and. freed, was
thoroughly vindicated by the towns
people today. A tag day benefit was
held in his honor. It netted thou.
sands Of dollars. Even the city police
men wore Hayes justice fund" tags.
Hayes has announced. that , the
money, over the amount needed to
pay for his legal aid. will be given
to charity. ....
Florence North, the voluntary at.
torney for Charlotte Mills, daughter
Of the slain singer, reported today
that Mrs. Hall had known for long
time Of the relations between her
husband and Mrs. Mills. She quoted
Mrs. Hall as telling her husband on
the night Of the murders:
''If you 60 out tonight, I feel that
you won't come back"
Mrs. Halls attorney denied this
without qualification.
James Mills. husband Of the sing.

Read Lloyd Georges speech
delivered yesterday. Those that
would put him out Of office will
have . fight. For himself
he would be willing to 60, saying
truly; II have had q long spell
and . very hard one. I love free
DOM But he doesn't intend to
have anybody put him out.
Lloyd George won England's
war. He Strengthened out the
@muddlers.' He supplied the
money, q chancellor Of the ex-
chequer; supplied fighting mate

Then, as prime minister, he d.
rected policy. Now he writes .

least $500, 900, and gives that
money to public charities, al
though he has no private for

book would have given him.

Of that kind. .
Another "great banker" says
we must cancel England's debt.
Before you make up your mind,
consider again the facts. Eng
land owes five thousand millions
to citizens Of this country. II
she doesn't pay, Americans must
pay In taxes. England. owes
thousands Of millions to British
subjects. She has paid their in
terest regularly and would not
dare suggest cancelling debts
due her own people. Why is
there talk Of cancelling the debt
owed TO American citizens?
Lord Rosebery, the Duke of
Westminster, the Astor family
IN England, Lord Rothschild Of
the many millions, and others
In the British empire could as
well afford cancellation Of
their debt as the citizens of
this country. ;
Mayor Thompson, Of Chi
eago, orsanises dog show,
admitting only mongrels, not .
thoroughbred In the lot. The
mayor says It win be the most
intelligent dog show ever, and
he ID right.
II the mayer should organise
. show Of human beings, In
cluding the best Of all races,
he would also find his collec-
tion made up Of mongrels. E"
The five greatest nations Of
Europe-Greece, Rome, France,
England, Germany-wsre built
up Of all kinds Of breeds. The
same is true Of Japan, ablest
people of Asia. t-'s..
When people Of different
races marry, their enthusiasm
for each other causes them to
keep their weaknesses in the
background and bring forward
their strength. Hence the
mongrel wins.
