NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J,, Septem~ ber 26.—The body of Mrs. James Mllls, choir singer, found slain beside that of her pastor, Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall, ten days ago, probably will ‘be exhumed for further examlnation, Prosecutor Beekman of Somerset county said today. This would be done, he explained, to settle the ap- parent controversy over the number of shots which struck Mrs. Mills. Dr. W. E. Long, the county coroner's phy- siclan, said he found only one bullet wound piercing the head of the choir singer, but other physicians reported there were three or four wounds. Those investigating the case are convinced now that Rev. Mr. Hall and Mrs. Mills were killed on the spot ‘where their bodies were found—be- neath a crabapple tree on the slope of a hillside farm. Before they were slain ,the minister and his choir leader had gone by separate trolleys 20,000 UNION “VETS" THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Several clues were found yesterday to support the new theory that the couple intended to glope to the orient. ‘The fate which the rector and the leader of his choir shared, prosecutors pointed out, might have been hastened by rumors which seemed to have been circulated freely among certain mem- bers of the congregation that the plans of the two to leave New Brunswick had reached a stage of action. All his papers and effects had been placed in such order by the slain rector, detectives sald they learned, that the work of the pastorate could be under- taken by a successor with the least pos- sible difficulty. The books of the church and all funds, mission and charitable work, were left in a condition, it was said, that would have enabled a suc- gas'gor easily to proceed with the rector’s uties. The first inkling received by the authorities of an intended elopement | came when Prosecutor Stricker of Middlesex was Informed that a rela- tive of Mrs. Mills had a letter from her in which ehe herself told In detail of her plans to elope to Japan with Mr. Hall.
