Attendants at the government tel kept newspaper men from the room, but gave information as re- gards the name, address and employ- ment of the decéased. They refused, however, to give any data as to the manner of the finding of:the body and are observing the closeSt ’eerecy. As far could be established by the lice, Miss Brooks was found in eeping attire, with her hair done up -in curlers this morning when the housekeepers were mak- ing the room-cleaning tour.
