JERSEY CITY, n. j., Oct. 31.-The
Harding administration mas sought

Tests of this principle. Hughes

DELAYS HALL CASE
Authorities Also Unable

Mrs. Gibson Described.
EXPLAINS SHOOTING
Woman Says She Thought
Photographers Were Men
Who Threatened Her.

NEW BRUNSWICK. y. J.. Oct. 81 .
Mrs. Jane Gibson. who declares she
saw Mrs. Frames Stevens Hall at
the scene of her husbands murder
twice on the fatal night. is the most
impdvtant figure In the puzziins
case. to which authorities are seek
ing the key.
Despite attempts To hecloud the
Issue involving Mrs. Gibson's start
ling statement by attacks on her
reputation, Special Deputy Attor-
ney General Wilbur Mott said to-
day he has no reason to doubt her
story.
The sole reason for delaying
presentation of Mrs. GIoson's story
to the grand jury is that it has
been impossible to fin, the driver
of the wagon which Mrs. Gibson
says she followed Gown DeRussy's
lane on the night of the murder.
The authorities also have been un-
able to identify the driver of the
automobile which threw its light on
figures which Mrs. Gibson described
as Mrs. Hall and man with
bushy hair and a stubby black mus
tache," described by Mrs. Gibson.
Withholds Definite statement.
Mott refused to make any definite
statement regarding the proba BILE
action of the grand jury. except to
assure his questi6ners that there
would he no action today or to-
morrow. but the case will go to
the grand jury sometime"
Authorities are said to be work
ing on the theory that Hall and
Mrs. Mills weer killed with the
minister's own gun, which was in
the hands of another and that the
murderers went to the scene OF the
crime in an automobile.
Another similar theory is that the
murders were committed in self de
fense, based on an assumption that
the rector drew his revolver, that il
was wrested from him and turned
against him and that Mrs. Mills was
then killed because she had wit
messed the shooting.
No member of the Hall family has
admitted Hall owned a gun. despite
the report that he displayed a
weapon at a church picnic some
months before his death.
Explains shooting.

son offered an excuse for her attack

Mrs. Gibson admitted that she had
been married to Easton and had d.
vorced him when "he became a hard
drinker."

murderer of the minister and the

LONDON, Oct. 31--Great Britain
is de5irous OF delaying debt-fund-
ing negotiations with the United
States until after the general Par
liamentary elections November Is.
Premier Bonar Law is unwilling
to enter upon negotiations of such
magnitude and far-reaching conse-
quence until he has received a final
verdict of approval from the Brit

start something which would hare
to be finished by some one else in
tain a majority.
Contingent Upon America.
Another reason for desiring a
delay is the fact tnat Chancellor
of the ExcheqUer Baldwin, who
would be expected to head the mis-
sion to Washington, is up for re-
election to commons and would find
it difficult to be in America while
fighting to retain his seat in Par
Lament.
However. this Is all contingent
upon the wishe $ of the United

delay unless it is satisfactory to
