MRS. MILLS KILLED
 BY THREE BULLETS
Body Is Exhumed to Clear Up
 Points in Doubt

NeW pTuusW1Ck, IN. Jr Sepl. oU.-At 2 o'clock yesterday morning a squad of grave triggers with picks and lan- terms trooped into Van Liew ceme- tery and dug up the body of Mrs Eleanor Mills, choir leader of tre Church of St. John the Evangelist and wife of the sexton, who, with Dr. Edward w. Hall, the rector, was killed more than two weeks ago. The exhumation was upon orders of A. M. Beekman, Somerset county prosecu- tor, and was followed by an autopsy that settled a controversy concerning exactly how Mrs. Mills came to her death.
 That, and the fact that Gov. Ed wards has instructed the state police to assist the authorities of Somerset and Middlesex counties in finding the murderer or murderers, were the out standing features of the 18th day of the investigation.
 The autopsy, while settling the con- troversy. threw no additional light as Prosecutor Beekman has been able to indicate The order of the gov ernor sending state troopers here merely has the effect of putting them back on a job upon which apparently they were called off ten days or more ago.
 Troops Back on Job.
 A number of troopers were here for two or three days after the dis covery of the bodies of Mrs. Mills and Dr. Hall They assnted the local authorities during that time, but have not since been seen.
 The autopsy upon the body of Mrs. Mills was performed by Dr. Runkle F. Hageman of Somerville. Dr. A. L. H. Long, Somerset county physician, and Dr. F. I. Cronk, health officers of New Brunswick. The examination was made in the presence of Prosecu- tor Beekman and detectives of Som erset and Middlesex counties.
 The findings are at almost complete variance with the report made by Dr, Iong to Prosecutor Beekman at the time the bodies were discovered. but bear out fully the report of Dr. Cronk who at the request of the Hall fami- y, examined both bodies before they were buried
 Autopsy 15 Days Late.
 The autopsy, revealing information vital to the solution of the murder was made just Is days aft er the bodies of the couple were found. If showed that there were three bullet wounds in the head caused by .32 caubre bullets of a .ype used in automatic pistols; that he woman's throat had been cut ap- by knife and that no bones were broken in the womans ankles or legs. These points had been in virtually ever since Mrs. Mills body was buried two weeks ago.
 The question of the bullets was inn oortant because it appears to estab- ish conclusively that they were not fred from any of the several weapons n possession of the prosecutor. In he fortnight since the staying no step vas taken to clear that point definite y.
 The startling point established by he autopsy leaves the investigators two weeks behind the search. l Io one connected with the prosecu- ors office, however, appears to be leeply upset over the circumstance.
 Dr. Long, in answer to questions egarding discrepancies between the findings of today and his original re- port on the condition of Mrs. Mil's
