that the Senator had received his plea

from the Senator himself, setting forth
what he could do IN the matter, would
be received by Mills within a day or

Wagon Reported Pound
II vac reported to-day that the man
who drove the wagon which Mrs. Jane
Gibson says she was pursuing when
she camo on the scene Of the crime has
been found. The man who previously
was described as the wagon driver was
not produced before the grand Jury,
for the good reason that he satisfied
the authorities he was not the person
they were looking for. This newly dis
covered wagon driver, however, Is re-
ported 20 be the right man.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j. Dee. A.
Instead Of petsrins out, as vas pre-
Sleted vhen the grand Jury failed %
indict. the Hail-Mills murder invcstiga-
tion appears 20 be entering on another
phase with the conference IN Trenton
to-morrew Of Attorney General Thomas
}. McCran and Special Prosecutor VIII
bur A. Mott
Everything pointed IN this direction
to-day when Il became known that Mr.
McCrsn may name another prosecutor
and reopen the investigation. A fur
ther indication Of renewed activity was
the statement made at Someryille To-
day By George Z. Totten, chief detec-
tive OF Somerset County. that u IS not
unlikely that additional evidence would
bo presented 20 the grand jury In a
thort time. Inc new grand jury meets
on Tuesday. December ~. The third
indication that the case will not be al
lowed % lapse Is the letter received
this morning By James Mills from
Senator Walter Z. Edges secretary. Il
was in response 70 an appeal made on
Thanksgiving Day By the husband Of
the murdered choir leader, and prom
ised assistance.
New Prosecutor RumOred
The conferences scheduled FOR 20
morrow will AZ least clear up all doubt
as 10 who 10 officially In charge and
will facilitate the operations Of the de-
tectlves OF both counties. II Mr.. Mott
Vithdraws and a successor IL not sp-
pointed Prosecutors Beekman and
Strieker will automatically assume
charge. Mr. McCran declined 20 divulge
his plans to-day.
In spite Of his silence. the rumor per-
sisted that he intended % name a sue
eessor TO Mr.. Mott.
Public opinion in both counties Is so
strong that the investigation cannot be
dropped entirely without severe criti-
eism Of the acting officials. The towns
people Of New Brunswick fec that the
grand jury proceedings have neither
ended the case nor ouieted their sus-
picions. They will hardly be satisfied
unless the inquiry Is pushed further.
Detective Totten made IL clear to-
day that Somerset County had been
working on the case and had collected
fresh evidence since the grand jury ad-
journed.
"sir. Beekman Is charged with the
enforcement Of the law IN this county,
and even if everybody else quit the
investigation will be continued" he
said. "We have developed several i'm
portant facts since the grand jury ad-
iOurned last week and we expect TO
velop more. This case IS far from
closed. IL Is not unlikely that addi-
tional evidence will be presented TO
the grand jury in short time"
Both Prosecutors Active
The Attorney General was called in
originally because Of the criticism Of
Prosecutors Beekman and Stricker.
Nevertheless, Beekman remained almost
IN full charge. AZ tho grand jury
hearing II was said that he and not Mr..
Mott did most Of the questioning.
Stricker is also back In the case in a
nominal way. lie has announced sew
eral times in the last few days that he
Is anxious to help the authorities Of

The first sereeeh Yovler the BOD
Cat had given when he started after
Peter had frightened Peter so that
he almost fell heels over head. II
was a frightful sound for any one

screeched again at the very entrance
20 that hole and Peter had heard
Yowler's sharp claws tearing up the
earth In rage II had seemed 20 him
that his heart would thump its way
right through bis sides. He knew
that he was safe from Yowler so long
as he remained In that hole, but even
that knowledge didn't make those
screeches any less frightful.
Peter would shiver at the thought
Of what might have happened 10 him.
Then he would ehuckle at the thought
Of how he had saved Paddy the Bea-
yer from Yowler. Then he would
shiver again. So for a long time he
would shiver, then ehuckle, then
ahiver. then chueklo. Il was dread
fUl TO have such mixed feelings.
YoWler screeched only a couple Of
times at that hole and Il was only
for q moment or two that he tore Up
the ground. After that all was still.
