Investigators, 1t Is Be-
lieved, to Depend Upon
Members of st. Johns.
MRS. MILLS is MISSED
Choir Singer Had Trimmed
Church Tree and Arranged
Christmas Celebration.

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., Dec. 10
Several witnesses who until this time
had no connection with the Hall
Mills murder investigation have been
unearthed by the new investigators
working here. and their evidence will
be presented before the new Somerset
county Grand Jury, which will con-
vene in Somerville on Tuesday. This
fact became known to-day when the
identity of one new worker was
learned.
"You would be surprised il you
knew the direction our efforts have
taken' this investigator said tonight.
1--WE hope to have our request granted
to place the new evidence before the
Grand Jury, and we feel that we have
developed a case far stronger than the
one that collapsed three weeks ago.
Some of the previous witnesses will
be called, although they will be ques-
toned along entirely different lines"
he added.
There IS strong reason for the BELIEF
that the new witnesses are members Of
the congregation of the Church of st.
John the Evangelist. The investigators
have been working among members or
the church, but have covered their moves
so closely that none of the persons ques-
toned knows of any one else who has
been interviewed. Several members of
the church and choir denied that they
had been questioned or that they knew
of any one who had.
Another situation to be met in Somer-
VILE. however. may nullify the work
done by the new investigators. The
feeling in Somerset county. especially
since the Middlesex Board of FreNhold-
ers made it clear that they would not
share the expense bill. is that the county
Is through with the case. There is
strong sentiment against presenting the
matter to the Grand Jury. The opinion
in Somerset is that the case is finished.
and has been expensive enough as 1t
stands. and that there is no reason to
bring 1t up again. Despite this senti-
ment the investigators will make de-
tcrmined effort to have the case reopened
and the new evidence presented. IN
this they will be supported by the private
investigators who have been working
for many weeks in the interest OF persons
specially interested in the case
Many members of st. Johns congre-'
cation are wondering who will take Mrs.
