 HUNTED S7RANGLER
Phila. Woman Killed Under Conditions Giving Police Clue

Philadelphia, April 2s tP, Be lief that the slayer Of Mrs. William Mcconnell. strangled to death with q silk stocking in her home yes terday by a lone assailant, is the "strangler" wanted by the authori- ties Of several far western states. was expressed today by those work ing on the case.
 During the last year a number of women were reported by the police to have been strangled 10 death in western cities by a man answering the description Of Mrs. McConnell's assailant. Tn each in stance the strangler was said 10 have visited houses bearing For Sale" signs and posed as q pro- spcctive purchaser. There was a "I'or Sale" sign on the Mcconnell bone.
 Mrs. McConnell's body. stock ing drawn tightly about her neck and a handkerchief crammed into her mouth. was found by her daughter and son-n-law when they returned from work last night. The body had been thrust under the bed in her chamber.
 Overturned furniture on the first floor and blood on the walls and stairs gave evidence that the wom- an had fought desperately against her assailant. Three diamond rings and platinum watch set with diamonds were missing.
 Mrs. Mcconnell was alone when tho slayer entered. Her husband, a
 travelling salesman. had left early in the week for a tour Of th" state. Apparently Mrs. Mcconnell had broken from the intruder's grasp several times. Police believe he first attacked her in the living room, then pursued her to the din- ing room and finally in her bed chamber where the battle ended. Bruises on her face indicate, the authorities said, that the man had beaten her until she was defense less and then slowly strangled her 10 death with the stocking.
 4 detailed description of tho man was given the police by Mrs. Anna Kerchline, who, from her window across the street saw him enter and leave the Mcconnell home.
