ACTRESS BELIEVED
JEALOUSY VICTIM
New York Police Find Letter in
Feminine Hand From Detroit
Which Gives Clue.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. January 2.-De-
tectives have found new clue
which led them to believe that Mrs.
Emma Harrington, vaudeville actress,
might have been killed by a woman
and that jealousy might have been the
motive.
A letter in a feminine hand was
found, bearing a Detroit postmark.
reminding Mrs. Harrington in ex'
travagantly endearing terms of her
friendship for the writer in the past
and insisting that the actress spend
the holidays in Detroit.
Police said that the letter gave
weight to a previous suspicion that
a woman might be the slayer. which
arose when the autopsy showed that
none of the blows on Mrs. Harring'
tons head had been sufficient to frac.
ture the skull. The actress died from
loss of blood from the wounds.
Guy Harrington, actor. whom Mrs,
Harrington was suing for divorce
was questioned by police today. He
came from Pennsylvania, where he
had been appearing in a stock com
pany, to aid in the investigation.
