MRS. HALL ID SAIL {
 FOR FAR EAST SOON
Wife of Slain Pastor May Decide
 to Live Abroad

New Brunswick, N. J.. Dec. 29.- Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall, widow of the murdered rector of the Church of St. John the Evangelist. will sail for Italy and the Far East on January 20, accompanied by her close friend. Miss Sally Peters. Her stay abroad will be indefinite and Mrs. Hall may decide to make her home somewhere in southern Europe. Preparations are being made to close the Hall home on Nichol avenue and servants received notice yesterday that they would not be needed after the twentieth.
 Apparently the authorities will make no attempt to prevent Mrs. Hall from starting on her trin. end the only comment on the announcement was made by Detective Fred David who said, T did not think that she would % so soon." Timothy N. Pfeiffer, the Hall attorney, was not in New Bruns- wick today, and no one at the Hal, home would make any statement.
 Among the servants to be dropped are Barbara Tough, the seamstress, and Louise Geist, a maid both of whom were staunch friends of Mrs. Hall during the murder investigation, and who have been in the Hall family for several years. It was on testimony given by them before the grand jury that Mrs. Halls statements as to her movements on the night of the mur- ders were corroborated. The only employee who is retained is Peter Tumulty. the Hall chauffeur, who will be left as watchman of the property.
 Willie Going Away
 Willie Stevens, Mrs. Halls brother, will go to Florida, where he will make his home until Mrs. Hall decides either to return to this country or remain abroad indefinitely. Recently the restrictions placed on Willie by tho family were removed and he is now seen daily in the streets of Ne~ Brunswick, usually in company witt. some of the firemen or street cleaner friends. Occasionally he takes a ride on the big ash carts. He rarely makes any reference to the murders or to his recent exile in the Hail backyard and garden, but has talked considerably of the money left to him by relatives, which is still in trust for him.
 Henry Stevens Mrs. Halls other brother. visited New Brunswick yes terday and had conference with William E. Florance, the attorney engaged by Mrs Hall at the beginning of the case. It is understood that Stevens made arrangements to place Mrs Halls affairs in Florance's charge while the former is away in Europe. Stevens will leave for South America within the next few weeks to be gone indefinitely. He will close his home at Lavalette, N. J.
 Detectives from Somerville and New Brunswick held another secret conference here yesterday and visited sevral witnesses living near Mrs. Gib- sons farm, but did not stop at her home. They also admitted that they have several new witnesses who may be called before the grand Jury which convenes in Somerville next Wednes- day

SUSPECT ARSON ATTEMPT
St. Patrick's Church at Quebec Under Close Guard-Benzine Odors Per- meate Edifce.

Quebec, Dec. 29.--Interest in the inquiry into the cause of the Basilica fire was increased yesterday when the pastor of St. Patrick's church stated that last evening there was persist ent odor of benzine throughout the edifice. No work was beeing carried out in the church and the Redemp- torist Fathers in charge cannot ac- count for thesstrange happening. The church, one of the oldest in the city, was closely guarded all night, and to- day special police were put in charge. In view of the burning of other churches it is generally believed an- other attempt at arson was made.
 The possibility of startling de- velopments within twenty-four hours was stated to newspapermen today by Mgr. La Flamme, parish priest of the destroyed Basilica. He would not in- dicate the clues being followed, but said he was still of the opinion the fire could not have originated from natural causes.
