FOUND MAY
 CLEAR UP MURDER
Police Discover New Clues in
 Hall-MillS Mystery

New Brunswick, N. J., Sept. 2o--In- quiry into the killing last week of the Rev Edward Wheeler Hall, rector of the church of St John the Evangelist, and his choir leader, Mrs. Eleanor Renhardt Mills, wife of the church sexton was centered today in the theory that an abandoned farm house near the spot where the bodies were found Saturday night have been used by the slain couple as a trysting place. Officers of Somerset and Middlesex counties whose grand juries yester- day began a formal inquiry into the tragedy were expected to cause the arrest of one person on warrant charging suspicion of murder,
 Home Was Furnished.
 Authorities were reticent to discuss their theories about the house known for some time as the house of mys- tery" and which has been found to be completely furnished, although no tenant has occupied it for some time. It was known however, that it's pres ent ownership was being investigated and that detectives have searched it ully.
 The farm house is a weather beaten two story frame structure nearly 100 years old, standing in the midst of pine trees that almost conceal it from passersby The grounds are run down but the interior is well furnish. ed The absence of dust on the fur. niture suggests that it was recently occupied.
 Pistol Is Found.
 Discovery of a pistol was the out standing accomplishment yesterday. It was not disclosed whether the author. ities believe they have found the wea- pon with which the two were slain.
 Mrs. Hall, widow of the clergyman, and her brother, William Stevens, were to be questioned further today as to their movements Thursday night and early Friday.

 Consul Gen Horton explained that his official position prevented his commenting on the incidents in Smyr- na but said 1t was his duty to speak of the splendid heroism and self sac rifice Of the American colonists in Smyrna
 situation Dangerous
 When the situation became dan gerous I in collaboration with Cap tain Arthur J, Hepburn, chief of staff to Admiral Bristol, arranged for the took over the theater in Smyrna and had 1t guarded by marines. l told the members of the colony to come 10 the theater twice daily to receive the lat est bulletins on the situation l sum moned the principal members of the colony to discuss the general situa ton.
 Thousands of refugees in the de- spairing city were absolutely hungry and destitute. Refus Lane, an Am erican engaged in smyrna, spoke up on one occasion and said that they had not come to the meeting to look out for their own safety, but to look out for those of the starving people. Francis W. Blackley. another Ameri- can. agreed in this and gave 200 Turk ish pounds to start subscription list tor the refugees. Stanley w. Smith of the Standard Oil So., in smyrna. gave 800 Turkish pounds.

 we started the work of relief i'm nediately The American firms con tributed the use of their automobiles and trucks. They never saw them again because they were completely Turned up. Representative Ameri- cans, members of the Y. VI. c. A. and professors of the American college, organ nized a central committee. With in an hour, while the automobiles were still in their possession and with the stars and stripes flying on their machines, they were all over the city administering relief. Their first ef fort was made amongst Americans. Their conduct was generous and hero ic even under the greatest difficulties. We urged the American women teach CTS in the girls school of the Y. w. C. A. to leave Smyrna. but they re- fused until driven by the flames. These brave women labored un- cea singly without food and sleep. Some are still there.'
 The consul general and his wife em mbarked on the |. S. S. Simpson with 65 other Americans and came to Athens Vice Counsel Maynard B, Barnes remained in the devastated city with 12 other Americans who were chiefly engaged in relief work.
