MAN ACCUSED
 OF } MURDERS
 HAS WIFE HERE
Robert Spaulding, Held in Illinois, for Triple Kil1in g, Abandoned Bridgeport Nurse He Married and Baby Daughter.

Formerly employed here a fore nan in the Union Metallic Cartridg ge Company, Robert Spaulding now ianguishes in a cell in the Peoria, H., prison charged with the murder of a constable, a marshal and a 14-year- old boy. His case was scheduled to be heard this week but when the time for trial came Spaulding asked for a change of jurynen alleging that a story printed in an afternoon news paper might influence the jury to re- turn verdict of guilty against him.
 Spaulding's wife, Lydia W, and his hve-year-old daughter now reside in this city at the furthermost edge of Beardsley park. Spaulding met his wife while he was a patient in Bridge port Hospital and she was in training. The romance culminated in the mar riage of the pair six weeks after the first meeting and after short stay in this city they moved to Detroit, where Mrs. Sapulding says her husband s true character first asserted itself
 He was arrested twice in Detroit once for bootlegging and another time for stealing automobiles. They re- turned to Bridgeport, she said, and shortly after he left her. Since that time she has not seen or heard from him and in 1921 filed suit for divorce charging fnf1delity and desertion
 Mrs Spaulding claims that her hus- band is mentally unbalanced, having threatened to shoot her on several occasions. and also threatening to slay the army officers if they attempted to draft him.

$10,OOO DRAWN
 BY RECTOR HALL DAY BEFORE CRIME

New Brunswick. N. J., Sept 27- Authorities investigating the slaying two weeks ago of the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall, rector of the Episcopal Church of St. John the Evangelist, and his choir leader, Mrs. James Mills sought today to run down rumors that the rector may have been car- ryfng securities valued in excess of $10,oo0 when he was shot Until this report became current investiga- tors had given little credence to sug- gestions that the double killing might have been the work of robbers or a olackmail gang,
 The bodies of the Rev. Mr Hall and Mrs. Mills were found in a de- serted field near New Brunswick, three days after they had disappear ed. Although the rector's watch was missing, investigators proceeded on the theory that jealousy and not robbery prompted the double kill ing.
 Information since obtained tends to strengthen the former belief but the investigators have been unable to pin the crime upon anyone known to have had cause for jealousy.
 Today's inquiry paid particular at tention to the rumor that securitie: inherited by the Rec. MT. Hall from the estate of his mother in-law were taken from his strong box prior tt the day he was killed.
