lice, specially deputized by Governor
Edwards, added to their force, the
combined detective staffs of Aliddlesex
and Somerset counties Saturday con-
tinued their investigation into theslav-
ing of Mrs. James Mills and the Rev.
Edward Wheeler Hill, rector of the
Protestant Episcopal church of St
John the Evangelist, by ordering pre-
pared an authentic medical account of
the conditions of the two bodies when
found.
County physicians we're called upon
in the preparation of this account,
which, it was reported, might result
in a complete reconstruction of sew
eral of the main lines of investiga-
ton being pursued by the police. 1t
developed during the questioning of the
medical authorities that only super
ficial examination had beeL made of
the rector's body, which will be ex-
humed Monday. Attempts to corre-
late reports found in disagreement
among the authorities on many impor
tant details in regard to the actual
condition of both bodies, will be made.
The arrival here of the three detec-
tives of the state police, who were
assigned on the special plea of the
slain woman's 18-yearold daughter,
Charlotte, saw redoubling of activ-
tiles employed in the investigation.
A short time after the three detec-
tives reported to Prosecutor Beckman
and were assigned to plain clothes

and startling clue touching the case
had been found They declined to
discuss it's nature, but intimated that

Athens, Sept. 30.-According to the

was not desirable for him to take
refuge on British soil. 1t was sug-

in Greece with the new king has Great

terry.
+ After Sullies had gone, police and
other authorities who were among the
first to reach the scene after the dis
covery of the crime, were summoned
in an effort to gain additional infor
nation. DR.. William II. Long, Som
erset county physician, stated at this
conference that a New Brunswick po-
liceman was responsible for scattering
of the letters about the bodies.
DIR. Long said that the policeman
had pulled the letters from the rector's s
pocket in an effort to identify the body
and had not returned them.
Eight letters in all were found, il
was stated. All were in an amorous
vein unaddressed and unsigned. They
were in the inside coat pocket, DIR.
Long said, when the body was discov-
cred.
He expressed the opinion that
marks found on Mr.. Halls body sub
stantiated the theory that the murders
we're committed by an extraordinarily
strong person.
After Mrs. Mills was shot" he
said, the assassin knelt upon her and
drew the knife across her throat, al
most decapitating her..
All efforts to learn through the
prosecutors office the exact bearing
which the eight letters found on Mr.
Hall had on the case, were in vain.
The prosecutor, Mr.. Beckman de-
clined to discuss their contents be-
yond saying they would make excel
lent newspaper copy, and adding that
they contained matter derogatory to
members of Mr.. Halls congregation.
