Prosecutor Drops
From Public View
Are Keeping Mum on Developments
In New Jersey Case-Publicity
Spoils Plans-Attorney
Located in Sommerbile

New Brunswick, n. j., Oct. IS
Prosecutor Beekman dropped out Of
sight during the night and it is re-
/ ported he is questioning a suspect
secretly, in connection with the mur-
der of the Rev. Edward w Hall and
Mrs. Eleanor Mills.
This is understood to have follow
ed disclosures that the rector and
( his choir singer sweetheart were
slain in cold blood behind a school
house on the Red Bank road. four
miles from the abandoned Phillips
farm where their bodies were found.
If the prrson under suspicion
proves an alibi, Beekman will reap
pear and nothing more will be heard
of the matter.
These new secret tactics of the
proecution were adopted beCaue the
attorney said newspaper reporters
interferred with their invetigation.
A number of detective who have
been working on the case, as well as
several state policemen, disappeared
the same time as Beekman.
Two men witnesSes-the owner of
a busline and an employe of Rutgers
College-have come forward with
testimony that they heard woman
screaming for mercy behind the
school house on the Red Bank roac
about 10:30 p. m, September IA.
They heard the woman cry, HELD
Police" and don't murder me-"
A Zig automobile was discerneG
standing in the darkness beside the
road, near the school house.
A few minutes later this automo-
bile passed them at terrific speed.
1t is the theory Of the authorities
that at that time, the big car was
being used to carry the bodies of the
claim couple to the Phillips farm.
About twenty minutes later the
man testified. the same car whisked
by them again-this time returning
towards New Brunswick from the
direction of the Philips farm where
the corpses were laid out.
They said man crouched over the
wheel. One report was that they
said there was woman sitting be-
side the driver, but this could not be
confirmed.
Search behind the school revealed
an outhouse. in notwithstanding to
this latest theiry-the murders prob
ably occurred a pair of side combs
were found on the ground nearby
Two handkerchiefS also were
found-one a mans with an initial in
the corner, the other a woman's.
Charlotte Mills, daughter of the
slain woman, is said to have identi-
fled the latter one as her mothers. 1t
is a small filmy affair. Both hand,
l,erch;efs were blood-stained.
When this new information came
70 the authorities several days ago
they summoned Mrs. Hall and her
brothers, Henry and William, for
questioning. All were interrogated
and Mrs. Hall was confronted with
a mystery woman"-n reality
Hungarian farmers wife-simply to
distract her attention while the two
new witnesses viewed her from the
side The only result was that the
widow and her brothers left the
court house and returned to their
home.
However. Beekman's disappearance
last night caused the report that he
had a new clew which he was fol-
lowing in secret. Beekman was loca-
ted this morning at Somerville. He
refused to discuss the events OF the
night. The new investigation IS still
in progress.

/ London, Oct l9.-Several hundred
of Lloyd Georges political foes
lhooted and ieered on the sidewalk as
/ Austen Chamberlain'S hand picked
unionist caucus met inside the ex-
elusive Carlton Club at II a. m. 20
! day.

uorters of the Prime Minister, when
they entered.
Judas was the cry that went up
as Lord Birkenhead alighted from
his car and hurried to the shelter
of the club.
Today's meeting of the unioniSt,
or conservative party was brought
about as the result of the political
crisis caused by the policies of the
/ Georgian government both at home
and in the near east.
Presumably it was called for the
purpose of deciding whether or not
the Unionist party would continue to
cooperate with the liberals Of which
the Premier is leader, in support Of
the coalition
! However. it was taken as fore
zone conclusion that the caucus would
/ 90 on record as favOring Lloyd
/ Georges ministry because there were
| eew invited to the meeting by Cham
berlaiu who are opposed to the Prime
Minister.
Chamberlain, the opposition press
! and die hards" charged, picked only
those who would vote in favor of the
/ fiery Welshman.
Bonar-Law. one of the "die hards"
delivered unfavorable to continued
support of Lloyd George but who has
made no statement to that effect was
, cheered as he was recognized at the
door of the club.
Only members of parliament who

Servative cabinet members were IN

Precautions were taken TO prevent
any disorders at the Citadel of Cham

ed open declarations of J. NJ. Eraskine
and Admiral Sueter, conservative
members of parliament who did not
receive bid to the meeting, that they
would fight their way in, if not re-
| cOgnize6 at the door.
The stewards of the club were
puzzled on what to say to conserva-
, tive leaders like the Duke of North
umberland and the Marquis of Sails

but were unlimited to attend the meet
ing if they insisted on being admitted.
Scores of newspaper men from all
over the world were excluded from
the club and busted themselves button
holing unionistS on their way to the
meeting.
In event that the unionist caucus
obeys the wishes of the leader, Cham
/ berlain, Lloyd George will be endorS-
cd.
I Several of the unlimited "die hards"

The vote carried with it the party S

is considered a liberal.

Republicans Likely to Lose FOrtyThree Seats in House
Although Facts Point Toward Slight Gain in
Senate-Are Secure in the West
HOT CONTESTS WAGED IN MANY STATES
Washington Correspondent Makes Exhaustive Review Of
Political Situation Chic is Scene of Most
Interesting and Uncertain Campaign
(By Isaac Gregg

Washington, Oct. l9.-The Gazette's
Washington correspondent presents
to its readers. today a forecast on the
probable results of the elections in
November. He has talked to both
Democratic and Republican campaign
managers who have been in daily
touch with the conditions throughout
each State in the Union and from
these sources, he is able to give to
those interested in the outcome an inn
partial view of the situation.
In the Middle Western States east
of the Mississippi. including Virginia,
West Virginia, Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kentucky
and Tennessee, reports received at
the headquarters Of the Republican
and Democratic parties in the last few
days indicate that while The Repub-
licans may have gain Of one Senate
in these States, they viii lose pos
sbly as many as twenty-five seats in
the House.
Loss of these seats in the House
added TO the loss Of twenty-one seats
indicated in the East means total
loss of forty-three seats east OF the
Mississippi, which is g large number,
but still no, cnoUlh to indicate Demo-

in the nation, It being not even worse
than New York where the election Of
seven Democrats IN the place Of Re-

Despite the issue Of Newberryism
and despite .he fact that former Gov.
Woodbridge y. Ferris, Democrat, has
never yet lost a political campaign
in his state, Republicans are claim
ing an easy Senate victory in Michi-
gan. Senator Townsend, they declare,
