MiLZer-HaU Murder Before
 Grand Jury Next Monday

New Brunswick, N. J.. Oct. 2S
 Deputy Attorney General Will
 bur \. Mott, generaliSSimo in
 charge of the investigation of the
 mysterious murder of Rev. pr.
 Edward W. Hall, rector of the
 Protestant Episcopal Church of
 St. John the Evangelist, and the
 beautiful choir singer. Mrs. James
 Mills, today began to sort and as-
 sembIe the mass of testimony for
 presentation to the Grand Jury.
 probably on Monday.
 In addition to the evidence collect ed by Mott himself, a vast amount of testimony has been turned over to him by the prosecuting attorneys and county detectives of Somerset and Nfiddlesex counties and by the state police.
 The d,eputy attorney general said he would be at his office in Newark k all day and in the meantime. the in vestigation here practically marked time except for minor activities of state policemen and county detectives who were checking up loose ends' Of the various stories told by vari- ous people
 The statement of Mrs. Jane GIb- son, eye witness of the double mur- der on the night of September 14 is expected to play an important part in the testimony that Is given to the Grand Jury. Photographs have been taken of the spot on the old Phillips farm, where the bodies were found on September 14, for the guidance ~ +fe Grand Jury.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-10-28
No More Arrests Expected.

It was generally believed that the detectives would await one or more indictment before making any ar rests, although it was admitted that an unforeseen development might make it possible and expedient to make arrests before the Grand Jury acts.
 The tnvt stigation of this baffHng murder mystery. which Is now in it's seventh week without a. single arrest being made on the direct charge of murder, appeared today to be nearing a dramatic climax. But even now 1t is impossible to predict just when the denouement will come. Mott said that he himself could not make a de- cisiVe prediction.
 Reports that Mrs. Gibson had gone to ernsylvania. giving the Impression that she had fled was untrue. Mrs Gibson was at her home today on her farm. not for from the Phillips place where the murders were committed
 Further details by Mrs. Gibson, who undoubtedly will prove the star" witness before the grand jury and the trial that may follow, and further in- vestigation ar the home of Henry Stevens. brother of Mra. Hall. at Lavaliette, N. IT., apparently put Mir Stevens out of the case entirely There are from eight to ten persons Tt Lavahette who are prepared to swear that Stevens was on a fishing expedition on the night of the mur- der. many miles away from the scene of tk& Ratodrannatic.

SEEK CLUE FOR
 CLERGYMAN AND
 WOMAN MURDER

Havre, Mont, Oct. 28-Town folks today were reviewing incidents in the lives here of the principals of the dou- ble~ tragedy which stalked through Havre and left dead in it's wake the Reverend Leonard J. EhristIer, Bishop of All Outdoors and Mrs. Margaret Carleton, known as "tke most beautiful woman in Montana" to provide motive for the murder and suicide. Police and county off, cials said that they were convinced the pastor was slain by Mrs Carlton, who then ended her life.
 Little incidents which at the time passed almost unnoticed were recalled today as every effort was made to piece together the story that was back of the tragedy.
 Frequently of late. it was recalled the Bishop of All Outdoors" a term of affection given the rector of St. Marks Episcopal church because of the wide field of his missionary efforts, and Mrs. Carlton walked together on the streets, but few thought anything of it.
 There had been talk months ago about the clergyman and Mrs. Carle- ton. Charges were made orally to the bishop of the district and testimony submitted but no official action was ever taken and the matter was dropped to still gossiping.

IT, BURNSDEAD AS RESULT OF
 HIS HER0ISM
Brother of Head of Edu- eaton Board Left Sick Bed to Answer Fire Alarm and Never Re- covered

Lieut. Thomas F. Burns of the Bridgeport Fire Department, a broth CT of President Owen Burns of the Board Of Education. died early this morning in St. Vincent's hospital. His death is the price he paid for devo- tion to duty.
 Last May, when the Republic res- taurant on Fairfield avenue, burned. Lieut.. Burns was home, sick in bed. When a second alarm was turned in for that roaring blaze, however, he got up and dressed, despite the pro tests of those about him, and hur- ried to the fire, fighting which he was gassed.
 Lieut. Burns, who entered the fire department in 1912, and has served AS driver for Chief Daniel E. Johnson, has not been well since and today his friends in the department directly contributed his death to his heroic response to duty while i'll last May.
 He was A years old and personally popular with all who knew him. He was unmarried and is survived by only his brother Owen. Funeral services will be held from his late residence at 137 Caroline street at 8:3o o'clock next Tuesday morning and from St. Charles church at o'clock, with a solemn high mass. Internent will be in St. MichaePs cemetery
