OFFER POSITION TO PROF MILLER
Wanted as Head of the High School Department.
(American News Service) Burlington, N. J., July 27. Conclusive evidence was unearthed today to show that the young woman who disappeared from the Metropolitan Inn at Burlington on Thursday night last.
was killed and her body thrown into
Rose Pond in the pine swamp about
ten miles from here.
Part of her clothing was found on
the bank of the pond and today an at-J
tempt was made to drag the 6lim pond. Signs of a struggle indicate that the girl was dragged from a buggy and thrown into the pond. Other startling disclosure points to the conclusion that the girl was the wife of a prominent New Yorker who had separated from her because of her affection for a man answering the description of her companion at the hotel
Signs of Struggle.
The signs of a struggle in the
swamp was discovered wnlle searchingin the neighborhood of the spot
where a buggy, tied by the girl was deserted.
From the place where a struggle
had evidently taken place the footprints of a man led into the swamp.
After following these footprints a short
distance, the posse found also the footprints of a woman. A little further
on the footprints of both a man and
a woman were plainly visible and from the way these were mixed up the posse judged that the man and woman were
struggling as they went into the swamp and it was concluded that the woman was being forced along against her will. ,
The footprints were lost by the offi
cers when hard ground was reached,
but they were convinced that the Rose Pond, about a mile from the roadway in the direction , of the swamp was the destination of the couple. The dis
coveries made on the bank of the pond
showed that this conclusion of the
searchers was amply justified.
Finds Footprints.
On the bank of the pond were found
a number of footprints and what was
still more startling, there was a trail that was evidently made by a body
dragged along the road. The footprints and the trail of the body lei right to the edge of the water. Search
ing along the bank, the officers found several hairpins, two side combs, a black knitted cape like that worn by the girl when 6he left the hotel on Thursday morning, and a number of pieces of a woman's lingerie. John Fitzgerald and his . sister Lizzie, who live about a quarter of a mile from the pond say they heard screams that seemed to come from the direction of the pond on Thursday night between 11 and 12 o'clock. Mrs. Hudson Parne who lives a short distance
from the Fitzgeralds says she also heard screams at the same hour. The two families had discussed the screams before any news of the probable murder had reached them. Letters Are Found. Further proof that the young worn-
found in a nair of new tan shoes tak- I
en from her suitcase. These shoes were purchased at 1456 Third avenue, New York. They had never been worn. Assistant States Prosecutor Wheelock states that he is hard at work trying to follow ud a number of letters found in the woman's suit
case. He says several names are
mentioned in these letters and believes the people mentioned can do
much toward clearing up the mystery.
He refuses to give out these names now because he fears suspicion might
be thrown on innocent persons.
The man who accompanied the girl to the hotel registering as .Mr. and Mrs. Wilkins. New York, took his suitcase away from the hotel Thursday morning saying he was going to catch a train for New York. Whether or not he really caught the train is a matter of doubt.
THIEV1I1G STILL BEING REPORTED
Would it not be advisable for the Y. M. C. A. officials to employ a detective to ferret out some of the thieving mysteries which have been of frequent occur ranee is the question asked. The last theft coming to the public's attention was that of $17 belonging to Robert Thompson, living in West Richmond, which was .taken by a most brazen thief. Ip fact this robbery is the boldest yet reported. The association Is responsible for the loss and will make it good, according to a statement of one of the officials this morning. Finds Money Gone. During the latter part of last week, young Thompson left his pocket book containing $17 at the desk with Philip Johnson, one of the clerks. Thompson went to the basement and took a swim and later upon going to the desk for his money, discovery was made that it was missing. It had been placed in one of the drawers behind the counter by Johnson. Thompson made complaint to the officials and
was promised that his loss would be made good. Mr. Goodwin, secretary of the association, stated this morning that the officials had a faint suspicion as to who the thief was.
There have been a number of robberies at the association both in the dormitory section as well as in the
locker -rooms-,,. Money has ,not been
the particular object of the thieves, as articles of wearing apparel and the like have been taken.

Annapolis, Md. July 27. Inquiry
into the death of Lieut. Sutton was
perhaps permanently halted today
when Judge Advocate Leonard's mo
tion to make , ell eyewitnesses to the
tragedy defendants, wa? Adopted by the naval court. This action came shortly after Mrs. Sutton (the mother) had been called to the stand and
a letter from her to the navy department was read, in which she declared her son had been murdered. The
status of the case is that it may be
reopened whenever Lieut. Roelker, one of the eyewitnesses can be locat
ed. He has disappeared and may never be found. The sudden halting of the case was a great disappointment to the Suttons, who had no opportunity to present a large mass of evidence they claim to have gathered.
