PARIS, Dec. 14 (U. P.) —A. thorough search of the garden of Eugene |
George ‘Weidm ’S villa at Saint Cloud failed today to disclose
bodies of addi DéL
By a “murder for profit” syndicate;
authorities pressed the hunt for the body of the “Bluebeard’s”
known victim. Mobile guards and grave | dig gers beat through lonely Fontaine- " bleau Forest, near Barbizon,. for the body of Mrs. Jean Keller, a 30-year-old divorcee whom Weidmann lured to, his high-walled villa and later Killed and buried. » Searchers were guided only by 8 rough map which Weidmann had
drawn in his cell at Saint Pierre.
Prison.. The early hunt for Mrs. Keller's grave was unsuccessful.
’ Search Dense’ Forest
The search centered in an fsolated ‘and dense section of the forest, within sight of the fields where Millet painted the “Angelus” and “The Gleaners” -and where other painters from the famed Barbizon school produced niasterpieces. ‘ In a nearby cave they found a large spot and blood covered sand on the floor of the cavern, indicating ‘a crime might have occurred there, but no body was found. Weidmann confessed yesterday that he killed Mrs. Keller—“the woman in green pajamas” known as “Janine”—on Oct. 4 and buried _ her body in the forest. He insist“ed he did not remember the location of tke grave. Seek Other Bodies Authorities showed - disappointment over the outcome of the hunt at the “murder villa.” They fell sure the bodies of other victims of "the sinister killer would be buried thére ‘but were convinced that Weidmann was telling: the truth
when he said ‘that only two bodies:
were ‘buried there.’ Paris’ new “Bluebeard” already has confessed killing six persons, ha ol Miss | Jean = Dekoven, Brooklyn, dancer whom _ he strangled to death. He has been chaxwed with these murders. He ‘was also charged with attack with intent to kill two detectives who arrested him.
