The finding Of the battered and
partly nude body Of Mrs. Alice

Mckinley was slain.
But the authorities reported that
the new case had a particular air
Of mystery because in the house
where the aged woman was found
slain in November was an empty
grave in which Mrs. Sheridan's bo-
dy apparently had been buried
for two days.
Meanwhile. officials were trying

deaths o; a man and woman in a
tourist cabin an the Newburyport
Rd. The woman registered as
Helen Power, and the man as
James T. McGuinness, A., OF Am

Another element Of mystery was
added to the latest deaths-the
fact that Miss Power gave her ad-
dress as 152 Chelsea St, Charles
