Sheriff and Detective of New York Are on Their Way to Maine to View Body

Madison, Me, October 23 - (UP) - Investigation of the Stark suicide mystery. which has pre-. scented the latest clue in the Crater disappearance case, was halted to- day pending arrival of Manhat- tan detective.
 Sheriff Elton H. Markham and Detective Van Sweisenstein of the New York Missing Persons Bureau were to come here this morning SC that the latter, an acquaintance oi Judge Joseph Force Crater. might view the suicide victim resembling in some respects the long missing jurist.
 While certain discrepancies be- tween the description of the body and that of Judge Crater left the Somerset county sheriff in some doubt as to the potential. value of this newest clue, Markham still considered the possibility that the famous disappearance case might at last be solved. The body, found hanging from a hemlock in Stark Wednesday, lay today in the tomb at Forest Hills cemtery, where 1t was to be viewed by the New York detective.
