prosecutors wanted to know particularly
whether William was with her all the
time, returning to the house with her
and entering 1t at che same time.
The reason lies in marked discrop-
ancy between the stories told by Mrs.
Hail and Samuel Phillips, watchman
at the New Jersey State College for
Women. just across the road from the
Han home. PHILLIP has asserted time
and again that he saw woman cross
ter the house lcng after ? o'clock, but
he has likewise stuck TO it that no man
was with her. According to Mrs. Hall.
her brother was with her. She stuck
to that story to-day in her brief ex-
animation. In fact all the evidence she
gave agreed with her former story.
1t was the brother. William. who
faced the real ordeal to-day. 1t has
been ascertained by the Prosecutors
that O.. tho day after the murder .sil-
liam Stevens had a new suit delivered
al the house and gave TO the lad max
ing the delivery two suits TO be cleaned.

Stevens was examined for long pc
riod, about an hour and a half. In his
former examination he answered ques-
| tons in a parrotlike fashion as though
he had been coached. and one of the
purposes in calling him again was 10

answers and whether he could be per-
suaded to change any part of his story.

faction.
On his way out Stevens made ii clear
tha. he does not like the way in which
he has heen treated in the newspapers.
He has always talked rather freely with
the newspaper men and to-day he called
them over and said he desired to be
referred TO hereafter either as Mr. Ste
vens or William. lie added:

The local authorities are now fort-

the mystery by other than detective

Near ny on Night OF Murder.

Within the last two days Stricker has
examined William ORourke, who has
stated that il was his practice to drive
through Buccdeugh Park every evening
and that he took his accustomed drive
with his wife on the night OF September
a. when the murder was committed.
He saw something on his drive that he
and the Prosecutor believe may have
been significant, but what II was neither
will disclose. He saw several cars
parked in the park that evening and
some persons sitting on the benches, but
whether hel saw Hall and Mrs. Mills is
not known.
Tonight 1t appears that the Prose
cutor's Office is getting ready to question
further young Raymond Schneider. who,
with Pearl BANNER, found the bodies of
the murdered pair on the morning OF
Saturday September 16. Schneider. IL

That the two should have stayed out
so late on that particular night may be
d mere coincidence. 1t appears. however.
that Schneider is vel. acquainted with
the Philips farm, and often went in that
direction on rambles with the BANNER
girl.
There are several stories as to there
having been motor cars parked in the
neighborhood of the farm and De
Russys lane on the night of the MUIR

was found to-day in Jack White Of High

not been examined as yet.
To-day a somewhat similar appeal Is
made through an editorial on the front
page of the local paper. This carries
u severe criticism OF some OF New
Brunswiclss citizens, though who the
writer had in mind Is not clear. The
editorial:
"'The precpitate flight OF persons who
may know something Of the Hall-Mills
case is disgrace to New Brunswick.
They are slackers just as truly as those
escaping war service. Public opinion
should take a hand. Those persons may
not be amenable TO law, but their neigh

such affair may induce another. 1t is
time for the people of the city to give
more careful thought to the general
safety than TO their own convenience.
Joseph L. Stricken, Prosecutor. has
issued a public appeal for information.
He has promised immunity from pub
licity. Protection viii be accorded to
all that come forward. There Is no
reason for hesitancy and every reason
for action.
"Middlesex county cannot afford to
leave this crime unsolved. The safety
