 The machine was conveyed in a car which the robbers took from the garage and which was found later this morning abandoned on Wakelee avenue.

 Blade Broken in Wound
 Circumstances tending to contra dict the murder-suicide theory were found by investigators for the cor oners office. Physicians expressed doubt that the maid would have had sufficient strength to have plunged the knife into her neck with such force as to break off part of the blade. They also adduced from the blood that flowed from both that Mrs. kelso may have been attacked after the maid had been slain.
 The maids body was found on a bed in her own room. A blood -cov- cred hammer lay on the floor near by. Mrs. kelso. fully clothed. was found on the floor of her bedroom. Her skull was fractured and she was unconscious, She had not re- galneu conscIousnes5 early today and there were only slight hopes for her recovery
 Mrs kelsos husband was Charles G. l.. kelso, wealthy manufacturer, of Belleyille Ont
 The attacks apparently took place some time Tuesday. but were not discovered until neighbors. alarmed at the continued silence, notified po- lice, who forced an entrance.
