ESTABLISHED’ 1873 MILLS TAKES ISSUE WITH -RECTOR’S WIFE oe uy r Disputes Some of Statements’ Made by Mrs. Hall to 4 Press SAYS JEALOUSY MOTIVE Husband of. Slain Woman| Gives Version of Crime é In Interview } (By the Associated Press) New Brunswick; N. J., Nov. 2.-- Looking up from work in a coal bin in the basement of the school house where he is janitor, James Mills, whose wife, Eleanor, was murdered with the Rev. Edward W. Hall on Sept. 14, today took issue with some! of the statements made yesterday | by the clergyman’s widow in an in-; terview. Mills said that he met Mrs. Hail! at the church at 8:30 on the. morn-| ing of Sept..15. Mrs. Hall yesterday said that she was at the church at 7/| o'clock, H “I know it could not. have been earlier than 8:30,” said Mills, “be- cause my children had already gone to school. 1 “The first thing Mrs, Hall asked | me was: ‘Was anybody sick at your | house last night?” We then | com-j mented on the fact that both my wife and her husband were missing, and I said: ‘Maybe they have eloped.’ | i i i \ “No, was Mrs, Hall’s reply. ‘I think something has happened to; them’ 3 | “At noon when Mrs. Hall came to my house, I told her I had not heard anything and she said she had now either. Then she went away. “She is incorrect in her statements, that she did not come to my house again at 5:30 o'clock, I remember that I had just returned with. some; ice and put it into the refrigerator. She stayed only a minute. “I saw Mrs, Hall again at 7 o'clock in her home. I went there to ask | her if. she had ony news. I stayed on the porch to talk. She did not seem to take it as hard.as I did. I had an idea that Dr. Hall and my wife had been together but I did not think there was anything wrong. “I don’t know why I ever suggest- ed an. elopement.” Mills said that when he saw Mrs. Hall atthe church at,.8:30 in the morning she had assured him that should would notify the police. Mrs. Hall stated yesterday she was not certain whether she called the police before or after she met Mills. Commenting on Mrs. Hall’s state- ment that. she was not vindicative and that she did not care to see any one punished for the murders, Mills said: “I am not vindictive either -but 1 want to see the murderer punished. I believe it was a woman's deed. All these theories about black mail and robbery and things are rot. It was jealousy and I think her throat was cut in spite because of her beautiful singing.” “I never heard any gossip about, my wife and Dr. Hall. If I had I would not have stood for it for a sin- gle minute. I am man enough not to have kept that job at the churca if I thought there was anything wrong between the minister and my wife. I live right and I want others to do the same. I would. have .gone to Mr. Hall and if he would not listen I would have gone to the bishop and to the vestry.” z ‘ Mills said he had never heard of ‘his wife having trouble with anybody and said he knew of no enemies that Dr. Hall might have had, “There was.plenty of gossip about members of the choir, though,” he added. The authorities are closély study? ing Mrs. Hall's replies to newspaper man yesterday in which the rector’s widow voiced her faith in Dr. Hall; maintained that she had no theories as to the murderers; said she did not seek revenge, and denied the ac- cusations made against her by Mrs. Jane Gibson. Officials conducting the inquir: into the murder on Sept. 14 of the Rev. Edward W. Hall and his choir leader, Mrs, Eleanor R. Mills, de- clined to, comment this morning on the interview given yesterday by Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall to twenty newspaper men. Detective James J. Mason said two witnesses had stated that Mrs. Hall entered her home at 2:10 a. m. On the morning after the murders, in- stead of 3:30 a, m. as she told the newspapermen. He said also that these two witnesses said she was alone. Mrs. Hall said her brother, Willie Stevens was with her. i AWAITS LULL Newark, N. J., Nov. 2—Wilbur A A. Mott, special prosecutor in charge of the Hall-Mills murder investigations declared today that he planned to wait for a lull in the copious publicity gven ‘the case before taking any decisive action. Commenting that one New York newspaper had taken the story of the murder off its front page for @ time yesterday, he said: “It is getting harder and harder for the newspapers to keep this Tam aj good waiter.” “SEE DAILY ACTION (By the Associated Press.)

The matter was presented to Judge Cashman about 6 o'clock last even- ing. Murray said the affidavit was granted and then counter-manded. Judge Cashman said that aft« it was filed he sought legal advice and was told that he should act forthwith and! then. received other advice to the ef- fect that this was not necessary. Murray also asked for a reduction in bail to $250, saying that the bail in such a case should not exceed the maximum penalty, which is 30 days in jail or $100 fine or both. Late; last night Murray appealed to Judge Nuessle to reduce and direct fixing of bond for Long. Among his grounds, he said, was that it was represented to him that there was talk of mob violence. Judge Nuesble did not act. Murray then sought to put up $1,000 cash bail with Judge Cashman but was unable to find him, he said. This morning, at 10 o'clock, the matter of bail came up before Police Magis- trate Cashman, sitting in police court. He declined to reduce the bail, saying that a continuance had been agreed until Monday and that he would not reopen the c)se except as to bail. Mbrray then offered $1,- 000 cash bail. Police Magistrate Cashman, stating he desired legal advice as to wheth- er cash bail was acceptable and the state’s attorney being absent, called E, B. Cox, attorney for Mr. Hughes. Mr. Cox read the statutes, stating that he did not wish to offer advice in the matter but if called upon oy the police magistrate would do so. He said that the police magistrate could admit the prisoner to bail and that it was discretionary, in his opin- ion. Mr. Murray suggested asking Judge Nuessle or the attorney gen- eral in the matter, holding it was mandatory. Police Magistrate Cash- man called up Judge Nuessle, and re- ported he was advised it was legal to admit Long on cash bail. He then did so. Mr, Murray presented bank certificates of deposit for the cash bail. Meantime Long had called in a barber and was shaved before he was released, shortly before noon. He left the police station with his at- torney. X-Ray Is Taken. Mr. Murray said that he wanted an immediate trial in the case, and as- serted that he would have witnesses present, but declined to indicate just what defense would be offered for Long's action. Long had stated he had witnesses to testify as to what he said to Mr, Hughes before he struck him. The case is set for Mon- day at 10 a. m. Mr. Hughes, it was said, was sit- ting up in the hospital today. An X-ray was made o° his cheek and it was disclosed that no bone was bro-! ken, it was added. Friends, of Mr. Hughes asserted that Long did not give his real name and that he lives in Minneapolis or St, Paul and were tracing his record. Long declared he was willing that it be traced, Statements on Case.

His imperative instructions to Count Sforza to remain at his post in Paris until he had reached a de- cision in the case of ambassadors who offered to resign, and his cir- cular to the prefects “exacting” their utmost endeavors and colla- boration were regarded as a strong indication of the method the new government is going to use in deal- ing with the business at home «nd abroad. In like manner a hint ss to the manner of running the govern- ment Mussolini will pursue was giv- en by his message yesterday -o the press associations in which he : aid he intended to safeguard the liberty of the press on condition that the press proves worthy of liberty.

Mussolini is reported to desire a little more time to prepare the speech outlining his program and to consult leaders of the various groups and parties in the chamber.
