GREENWICH HAS
 DOUBLE MURDER
 UNDER SOLUTION
Two Servants on Belle Haven Estate Were Bru= tally Beaten to Death Yesterday

Greenwich, Conn, June 2-UP) The slayer of two servants on q Belle Haven estate. who hammered his victims to death with furnace shaker and then tried to cremate their bodies in an improvided pyre, was believed today to have fled to New York.
 An expensive automobile, missing from the estate of Edwin H. Baker after Otto Vogel and his wife, Lucie, had been killed, was located during the night outside 313 West 136th Street, New York.
 Apparently the murders occurred early yesterday but it was not un- til late afternoon, when an awning man, making the windows ready for summer, smelled smoke, that they were discovered. Edward Shell, the workman, summoned firemen, who discovered the bodies of Vogel and his wife, clad in night clothes. un- der a smouldering mattress.
 The cast iron furnace shaker with which the skulls of the servants had been battered was on the bed between them. Apparently the slayer had surprised the two in their bedroom and killed them as they slept. Mrs Baker returned from Montclair, N. J., where she and her husband had been visiting with friends, last night and reported valuables in the house were un- touched. Robbery was ruled out as a motive by investigators. Checkup of the actions of the Vogels prior to their death revealed only the night before they had entertained Vogers sister and her husband, MT and Mrs Herman Seidenpop, and their daughter. Sadie. at dinner in the Baker home.
 Seidenpop, chauffeur for O. F. Redfield, New York publisher. said his family accompanied the Vogels to the theater and saw Vogel and his wife last when they drove away in one of the Baker automobiles. Vogel was involved in a speakeasy disturbance in New York last Feb ruary, two months before he entered the employ of the Bakers, police said. Examination of the Baker property after the murders were discovered disclosed a town car had l been taken from the garage. A
 milkman said the garage doors were
 open and a car was missing wher
 he made his morning call early
 yesterday.

A petition signed by more than $ families was submitted to the board of health at it's meeting last night asking for some action in re- lation to the "unhealthful mess' which exists on the Meriden road, known as the "Byrolly Dump" Dr E. J. Godfrey, health officer, was asked to take the matter under con sideration and make some effort to etraighten things out. He was given power to act by the board.
 It was learned that Dr Godfrey will order the dump posted with 'sNo Dumping" signs and will have strict watch kept on the place and those caught dumping win be taken into court.
 The petition stated that the fumes from the dump were unbearable, that the dump interfered with the rest of the residents of the district adjoining it and that it was d nuisance that could not be 'toler- ated another hour"
 Dr Godfrey's health report shows that there were in the city the past month one case of chickenpox; one of diphtheria: 2 of lobar pneumonia with 6 deaths: 12 of measles; 13 of
