Stranger Who Preys
On CoIored Sought;
Sixth Victim Found
Posing as Roomseeker.
He Assaults Women;
Three Have Been Slain

A stranger who has attacked six
colored women and killed three is
the object of police search today.
Yesterday the stranger, a colored
man, claimed his sixth victim. Mat
tie Steward, 48, of 1923 Swami
street NV.
According to Inspector Bernard
w. Thompson, chief of detectives,
it is believed that the same man is
responsible for all of the crimes.
His crimes all follow the same
pattern. Usually about dusk, he
comes to house advertising
rooms" He asks for the landlady
or her assistant and is shown about
she house. When he is satisfied
that no other person is near enough
to hear him he crirninally assaults
ais victims, then usually robs them.
and in the case Of the three,
Strangles them.
Matte Steward, the sixth victim,
vas found in her hrst-door room
by roomer, Josephine Macintosh.
Coroner A. Magruder Macdonald,
who found scratches on her neck,
did not place the time of the crime
The attacks have been going on
for two months now, and police,
although they now offer reward of
500 for the killer, admit they have
no definite clues as to his identity.
The crimes have taken place in
widespread sections of the city, and
police warn all owners of colored
rooming houses to be careful.
