reunited with her husband and three young children resided near the corner of Baldwin and Liberty streets. She left her home early on the afternoon of the murder. The police endeavored to-day to com municate with two of her brothers who reside in Asheville. N. c. and her mother, who is believed to be living in Cincinnati. The deceased was born in North Carolina. Her maiden name was Jennie Lipps. She was also known under other names. She worked in q local fac tory for several years and married Leach at the age of IS years. Her marriage was evidently an unhap- py one.
 Her body is now at the Alderson Funeral home. Plans have yet to be completed for the funeral. In the company of the police. Gala brese was taken to the funeral home yesterday. He failed to regis ter the reaction he did on the night he led the police to the sand pit and identified the body.
 The husband of the dead woman has appeared twice at police head quarters in readiness to testify, but he was not detained any length of time. He is not expected to furnish the evidence which is likely to re- suit in solution of the entire af- fair.
 Detectives John Calvin and Jo- seph Bender have been engaged in checking up on the details of the crime. Lieutenant Joseph Stevens has done the quizzing of Calabrese and Mangini for the police and was expected to work this after noon with the officials from the states attorneys office. Captain William P. Keegan and Detective John Leary have photos of the truck, the sandpit and other con meeting phases of the crime.

officer was working along South Main street when the robbery took place.
 After seiziig a tray of watches the Lhap who smashed the window leaped into the waiting car, which shot down Bank street as A. D. T. men raced over Center street. Har- old Davis, IF, a newsboy, standing in Exchange Place heard the mo- tor of the car as 1t whirled noisily and saw the getaway, but didn't suspect anything wrong until po- lice officers appeared on the scene. A description of the car was ob- tained, but as far as the two men are concerned very few details could be obtained which might lead to their identity. Lieutenant William Pollard and Detective William Foley took up the search for the thieves within a short time after witnesses had been quizzed.
 The thieves in their quick get away dropped watch, several rings and bracelet. Patrolman John Carmody found the time- piece valued at $140 a few feet from the wrecked window.
 The "break", the third in the vi- cinity of Exchange Place within two weeks was apparently well timed. Patrolman James Ferriter had registered ring at the police box in Exchange Place at 5:20 o. clock and had crossed to the east side of North Main street near the Mohican Market when the window was wrecked. Due to the noise of the motor he did not hear the crash. The whereabouts of Officer Carmody and others on the morning platoon were apparently known to the parties who staged the break. Other previous rObber- ies were staged in the Lewis build ing at 29-31 West Main street early yesterday morning and 8 jewelry store at 106 South Main street two V aeks ago.
 The establishment robbed to-day is protected by insurance. A list and a description of the articles taken were expected to be filed with the police later in the day. A description of the loot will be broadcast 10 other cities to pre- vent any immediate sale of the stolen merchandise.

the bulky accounts are available to
 inspection.
 The most costly funeral of the year was that for the late Speaker
 Nicholas Longworth. Train fare
 cost $6,422.20. A special train
 from Aiken, s. C., where he died,
 to Cincinnati, where he was buried, cost $2,797.74. Another $3.624.46
 was spent transporting delegation
 of congressman and senators to the
 ceremonies at Cincinnati.
 Critics of the burial expenses d.
 rect their attention chiefly to the
 escorting delegations of senators
 and congressman. There IS little
 objection to reasonable burial ex-
 penses especially since the house
 some time ago set a limit of $4OO
 on caskets.
 The Longworth congressional
 delegation turned in bills for about
 60 round trip fares from Washing ton to Cincinnati with drawing
 rooms, compartments. sections and two lower berths. This party at tended the funeral in Cincinnati and then a number of the mem
 bers participated in a hilarious aftermath at a Cincinnati brewery. No member of the house ever died perhaps who was missed as much as the jovial Longworth and some of those at the brewery party aft erwards said it was what their la mented friend would have wanted | them to do.
 A typical funeral expense ac- count runs as follows: Casket $400.
 Embalming $35. Candles. chairs cross, $25. Palm decorations, floral crepes, $31.
 Opening of grave, cemetery, $52. Hearse, $20.
 z flower cars, $84. 8 llmousines family $96. z Limousines congressional $S4. Outer burial case $75. Total $902.
 The widow usually is given a years salary. The clerks are car ried for one month to allow for final disposition of the deceased members office papers and other business.
 Congress usually allows $250 for funeral expenses of house em- ployes.
 odd items are found occasional ly on these expense accounts. One
 showed a $4 charge for underwear. On another bill an item for a SIPS casket was cut to $400. Items of $4.25 for tuxedo shirt, collar and tie" were stricken off as was 75
 cents for "pressing suit" For the fourteen deaths in the year ending last June 30, the aver age funeral cost to the government was slightly less than $1,500. In addition to these costs con- gress always holds special memo rial services and issues to the fam fly bound copies of the eulogies de- livered on these occasions.

theft of the car, which had been left parked on Canal street.
 The capture of the two local youths took place under dramatic circumstances. They had visited the gasoline station of George Ben- way on the new Boston Post road and complained that their car had become disabled short distance below his place of business. They asked for assistance and promised to reimburse Benway. The latter, eager to be accommodating to prospective customers locked up his station and got into his own car with the intention of driving the two youths back to where they had been obliged to abandon their car. As he was driving along the highway one of the two, who had taken his place in the back seat of the car, poked Benway in the ribs and ordered him to keep quiet and keep on driving. Suspecting that gun was trained on him Benway did as instructed without offering any resistance. Near Mil- ford he caught up to a line of cars that had been brought to 2 stand still by a traffic light. Catching yOuth6 utid WdAEb A0 AOoPSN Vht of his car and drawing a gun re- versed circumstances and com manded his captors to "stick 'em up" and keep 'em up. Several cars passed by and the occupants seeing Benway standing in the road with the gun pointed at the two youths, suspected that 1t was a holdup and sped away. Benway held his position until car came along with two friends it it. MT and Mrs Thomas Smith of Milford. MT Smith took hold of one of the youths and held him while Mrs Smith telephoned for the police. Benway kept the gun on the lads until the officers arrived. When the Milford authorities searched the two they were unable to find any weapon on them. They had "biuffed" Benway into riding along with them without any resistance.
