ENGLAND BAFFLED BY FIVE MURDERS
Scotland Yard Investigators Un- able to Find Workable Clues

London. Aug. 22 (UP) - Three mysterious murder cases, involving the lives of five persons, still rest on Scotland Yards unsolved blottel depite a summer of tireless and haffling investigation.
 These murder riddles, which com bined have cause Scotland Yard more worry than any other previous crimes, are the Duff poisoning mys- tery. the Reading killing, and the Southampton garage murder.
 Of this trio the chief thriller for several million English readers has been the Croydon, or Duff, arsenic case, wherein three members of one family all died of poisoning within 90 days.
 After weeks of sensational evi- dence given at a series of exhuma- tlon inquests, the juries in two in- stances brought in verdict of death and murder from arsenic 'willfully administered by some person or per sons unknown"
 On February 15 of this year Miss Vera Sidney, 40, died of poisoning at her home in Croydon. At the in- quest a verdict of murder by person or persons unknown was brought in. On March 5, her mother, Mrs. Vio- let Sidney, 69 and the widow of a former lawyer. now dead. died of ar senic poisoning. The jury agreed as to the cause of her death but added tho1 bod .l, died by her own hand or was mur- dered
 Hardly a month after her son-in- law. Edmund Duff, a former high commissioner in Nigeria, followed her to the grave from arsenic pojs- cn "willfully administered"
 Authorities Bafrled
 England's most skilled medical minds were called to the Duff in- quest Sir Bernard Salisbury, gov- ernment post-m ortem expert, testi- fled the poison had been taken either in the beer or food Duff had eaten at dinner evening before he died. But like the other deaths in his family, the jury and police were unable to find out who placed the poison in his food or for what reason
 The wife of the poisoned man, Mrs. Grace Duff, and their two chil- dren, John, fl and Mary 12, were all placed above suspicion. It was shown in court that MT. and Mrs. Duffs household was remarked in the ncighborhood for the mutual affec- ton which bound it's members to- gether.
 Since these three verdicts all pointing to diabolic plot to rid the earth of the Duff family, the police have been working night and day in search of clue on which to base an arrest. So far they have failed.
 Murder In a Garage
 Likewise the Yard has been un- able to solve the mysterious murder If Vivian Messiter, an oil agent who lived for many years in the United States, whose body was found in a garage at Southampton. Messiter strangely disappeared on October 30, 1928, and his body wasI found two months later in a pad locked garage in Southampton. A i wound was found in his head which |
New Britain herald., 1929-08-22

at first was thought to have been a bullet hole but later it was decided that the weapon used was a hammer
 Although the police have gone mlnutely over every clue they have been unable to fasten a charge on anyone. The person who battered Messiter to death with hammer in the quiet of that locked garage may now be thousands of miles away from Southampton.
 The third unsolved murder was the strange killing of Alfred Oliver, Eliddle-aged tobacconist of Reading, who was found battered to death in his tiny shop, robbery evidently not being the motive of the crime.
