HALL-MILLS CASE PROBERS TRACING DIARYANDPISTOL Many Questioned as New Jersey Authorities Seek New Links for Chain. Bu United Press SOMERVILLE, N. J., Aug. 20. With Carpender and Willie Stevens heldrto *the grand jury for alleged complicity in N the famous Hall-Mills murder, New Jersey authorities today turned to tracing a diary arid an automatic pistol as important additional links in tKS ease being built. -The diary was found in an ash can *rt Washington, D. C., a few days ago. It was described by de tectives as having been partially burned. ‘ Persons who might have knowledge of the affairs of the Hall-Mills group, which the diary mentioned, were being questioned in an effort to establish authorship of the paper. Maid Denies Ownership Mrs. Louise Reihl, maid at the Hall home at the time when the Rev. Dr. LHall and Mrs. Florence Mills, wife of the janitor at Hall’s fashionable church, were killed, denied authorship of the diary, but at she same time was quoted as saying she had kept a diary since childhood. “I don’t know what I may have written in a diary (four years ago,” she was said to have told questioners. ‘‘l only wrote about my personal affairs, and while I may have mentioned the Halls, I don’t know. Anyway, my diary has been destroyed.” The automatic pistol was found in Philadelphia and a long story told of how it was recovered in 1923, wrapped in a New Brunswick (N. J.) newspaper, from a room occupied by' two men and two women, who had been talking about the killing of some . unknown person. Os Spanish Make It was of Spanish make, as was the gun alleged to have been used in the shooting of the minister tmd Mrs. Mills and of the same calibre. But thus far detectives have been unable to trace it into the hands of any of those accused of the murder. Attorneys for Carpender, the prosperous Wall Street broker, and Stevens, his eccentric cousin, definitely determined, according to their announcement, to apply on Monday to the Supreme Court for bail for the twe. Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall, also accused of complicity in the murder, already is at liberty on $15,000 bonds. The State Will oppose any application for bail for Steven 6 and Carpender and may ask the cancellation of Mrs. Hall’s bonds, Prosecutor Alexander Simpson said.
