DOUBLE MURDE R
Tiny Smudges on Bosom of
Shirt Worn by the Rev.
Edward Hall May Lead
to SIayer'S Arrest.

New Brunswick, n. J.. Nov. g.
Finger prints found on the bosom
of the shirt worn by the Rev.
Edward Hall may picture to eH-
perts one of the principals in the
murder of the rector and his choir
singer, Mrs. Eleanor. Mills, it be-
came known through an authori-
tative source today.
The authorities, some Of whom
were in conference today with
Albert Gibb. grand jury foreman,
while they did not make known
the details of the discovery of
faint smudges on the shirt, ad-
mitted that report by experts
on the finger prints IS expected
tomorrow. 1t is possible that the
tiny prints left by fingers may be
one of the most powerful bits of
evidence to be presented before
the grand jury.
After the conference with Mr..
Gibbs, Special Deputy Attorney
General Mott announced that the
case would not go before the
grand jury until next week. De-
tectives working on the case are
again turning their attention to
Charlotte Mills, daughter OF the
slain choir singer, who has an
nouneed her intention of calling
again upon Governor Edwards.
Several of the detectives are of
the opinion that the girl is in
possession of information which
she has not yet divulged.

FRANCE DECIDES TO
ACT ALONE AGAINST
HUNS, IF NECESSARY

Paris. nov. Q tby the Associated
Press) Premier Poincare told
the senate this evening that the
French government had decided to
act alone with respect to Ger
many if the Brussels conference
failed to give France satisfaction
He expressed the opinion that no
general settlement of the repara-
lions problem was possible unless
the question Of inter-allied debts
was solved at the same time,
France is not imperialistic,' he
declared "I can say that she is
the least imperialistic OF the ma
tons. but she has right TO defend.
We do not contemplate any per-
sonal action before the Brussels
conference, but If &c do NOT OBJ
tain satisfaction there is nothing
in the world that can prevent us
from acting alone in the fullness
Of our rights
