TRUNK MURDER
MYSTERY Barred
Closet of Rooming House
Yields WOman'S Body.

BIZ United Press
PHILADELPHIA, March 7.-Po-
lice reported finding the body of a
woman in trunk in a Philadelphia
rooming house today.
She apparently had been dead
about week, police said, and the
body was contained in one trunk
within a larger trunk.
Another resident of the rooming
house discovered the body in a room
recently vacated by a man. The
trunk was found in a closet.
Inside the trunk police found a
smaller one. The space between
the Two trunks was padded with
rags apparently to prevent rafting
if the trunks should be moved.
The body was found within the
smaller trunk.
The trunk was removed to the
morgue, where coroner's physician,
DR.. Richard Burke, examined the
body.
He stated it was his opinion that
6eath was caused by blow on the
front of the woman's head. The
woman had been dead for about a
week, he said.
None of the residents of the house
could identify the body.
The rooming house is located in
a tenement district.
