Carriere, coroner's autopsy surgeon, was
tod about their suspicious. He laughed
when he heard the theory and frankly
TOLD them, in his opinion, there was
nothing to it. He could not conceive how
the Schneider girls remains could be
found in the Brenn garage.
at is too far fetched" he exclaimed,
but agreed to hurry over to the undertak
ing rooms to do what he could to clear up
the mystery. Even after his first view of
the body, which was frightfully mutilated
by the fire, Dr. Carriere freely expressed
some doubt. An incision into the flesh in
the abdomen was made. 1t let loose the
familiar odor of embalming fluid. Then
the doctor turned to the detectives, ex-
claiming:
81 believe you are on the right track.
/ am sure this body was prepared for
burial before it was burned"
Further dissection confirmed DR.. Car
riere's judgment.
"You are right" he exclaimed; "this is
not the body of man; it is that Of
woman-a young woman"
A positive identification was necessary.
The detectives sent for the embalmer who
prepared Miss Schneider's body for burial.
A peculiarity in this mans method Of en-
balming did much to clinch the identifica-
ton.
Standing over the body he quickly
pointed to a mark made in the stomach,
close to where DR.. Carriere had made
a new incision for his autopsy, and said
"There is the spot into which / injected
the embalming fluid"
"Most embalmers," he explained, "in-
ject the fluid into the side of the body,
but always work through the stomach" !"
He was unable to positively state that
the remains were Miss Schneider's, but
he was sure that it was some one upon
whom he had worked
Then the site of the ruined garage was
gone over again by the detectives, who
made an exhaustive study Of everything
thought helpful in bringing about the cor
rect Identification. The ashes of the ruins
were thoroughly gone over inch by inch.
In the debris a small piece of canton
crepe trimmed with silken cord was re-
covered, and this later was taken to the
undertakers who identified It as part of
the very robe in which they had laid out
the young Schneider girl.
A shovel was also found. It's handle
was burned, but the scoop was encrusted
with fre-baked red clay resembling the
earth in the grave from which Miss
Schneider's body was stolen. On the
whole, the police considered that their
evidence was pretty well established and

without trying to take his departure by
hiding his identity and substituting an
other body as his own. Wife abandon
ment is too common and too easily ac-
complished to resort to such an elaborate
crime as had been perpetrated.
The many perplexites in these theories
seem to make it necessary to find some
mind, are now working with an idea of
discovering If anything new has come into
Brenn's life lately which would cause him
to absolutely hide his identity.
VI course, in explaining the events that
happened on that fatal night, there exists
the possibility which has gained some
favor among Brenn's neighbors, that he
was afterward killed by the same men
whom he complained held him up. But
this does not account for the charred body
of the girl in the ruins of the garage.
This body was first seen in the flaming
automobile. II was the same automobile
in which Brenn drove to the Laclede ave-
nue. station, and the police are still con-
vinced that only through the discovery of
Brenn's whereabouts will its presence in
the garage be made plain. To him they
look for key to the mystery.
II bandits held up the garage owner
and killed him, no evidence has as yet
been presented which makes 1t reasonable
to suppose that they dug up another body
from the graveyard to conceal their crime.
They would then have two bodies on their
hands to dispose of. II would have been
far easier to have thrown, Brenn's body
into the flames in the first place. Notwith-
standing the conflicting clues which have
been developed and then cast aside, the
police still maintain that their investiga-
tions point to one man who dragged the
coffin from its shallow grave. And they
The Washington times., 1922-11-05

One-third of this price had been paid in
cash and two other monthly installments
were credited to him. This seemed to
dispose of the theory that he had for some
time been planning to flee the country,
and also that he was hard up for money
and was being pressed by creditors. His
chief creditor found to date is his land
lord, to whom he owed no great amount
of money.
II was also learned that the missing
man had purchased other equipment for
his filling station located directly across
the street from his garage; that he ex-
pected to enlarge his business, and was
even negotiating the purchase of a new
house to take the place of the diminutive
cottage in which the family lived.
Then the discovery that Brenn carried
only $1,000 life insurance became. very
disconcertng to the police. They learned
that his $4,000 Government policy, taken
out while in the army, had lapsed, and that
the additional $4,000 policy, for which he
demanded double compensation in case of
death by accident, had also been given up
when Brenn found that he would not be
allowed double compensation on account
of his business as an automobile repair
man.
These facts, so contradictory to the
earlier evidence, have by this time so con-
fused the police that they are about ready
to give up the idea that il was Brenn's in
tention to collect his insurance and sud-
denly run the country.
Then they set out to piece together the
idea that he wanted to deceive his wife
into the belief that he was dead and so to
get rid Of her. But Mrs. Brenn cannot
be induced to believe this Of her husband.
The Washington times., 1922-11-05

She maintains that
he was always kind
to her and greatly
loved his one-year-
old baby and would
ot b e likely to
leave the child for
any consideration.
1t is regarded as
inconceivable that a
man would go to
such extremes for
so comparatively
small an end. The
police agreed that if
Br enn desired to
leave the country
and a b a n d o n his
wife and baby it
would be very easy
for him to do so

purposes.
The idea of revenge was not helpful in
accounting for the ghouPs work. Miss
Schneider was only eighteen years of age,
had been a retiring little girl in life and
was not known to have an enemy.
Then the unusual occurrence of the
empty grave and the finding of the
charred body in the burned garage on the
very same night aroused the suspicious of
detectives, who decided to find out if two
such strangely peculiar events had any
bearing on each other. An autopsy soon
showed that the body found in the ruins
of the garage was not that of Harry R.
Brenn, it's proprietor, as was first sup
posed, but was Celestine Schneider's,
stolen from her grave. And no one who
knows Harry r. Breen, the garage pro-
prietor, has laid eyes on him since
that night, although the police of the
Southwest have been securing the country
for him.
From these two incidents the police
first developed the theory that Brenn had
stolen the body, placed it in the garage,
which was then set on fire and destroyed
with all its other contents, to give the
impression that he himself had perished
in the flames.
As motive for this unusual method
for concealing his identity, so the police
declared, he wanted to collect his life in
surance, which they estimated at 10000,
and leave the country with his German
war bride and little child.
To support this theory the police were
told that recently Brenn had increased his
insurance $4,000 and expressly stipulated
that he wanted double the amount paid in
case of death by accident. The police also
learned he was being pressed for money
owed; his wife was dissatisfied with living
in America, and her clothes were packed
and apparently ready for hasty move.
But the carefully developed theories of
the police were soon given more than one
rude jolt by the accumulation of other
evidence which added greatly to the
mystery.
A particular puzzling feature for which
the police have yet to find an answer is,
how was it possible for Mr.. Brenn, who
was known to be talking to the officers at
the Laclede avenue station at nine o'clock
in the evening, complaining that he had
been held up by six masked men on the
Telegraph road and robbed of $65, to
have taken the body of the Schneider girl
from her grave between eight and nine
o'clock that very same evening? II has
been generally agreed upon information
obtained near the cemetery that this was
the probable time the body was taken
from the grave Since the Laclede avenue
station is several miles distant from Mount
Hope, an apparently nsurmountable diff
Guilty presented itself in accounting for
Mr.. Brenn's appearance at such widely
diversified points at nearly the same
period Of time.
Other flaws disclosed the unlikihood of
the police theory on many points. After
Mr.. Brenn's mysterious disappearance the
police learned that, not long ago, he pur-
chased a gasolene pump from the Ideal
Pump Company, which cost nearly s400.
