POLICE T0 RESUME QUIZZING BREWSTER Army Medical Officers Re- new Examination of Baker Case Figure. Police authorities planned today to Tenew their interrogation of Harold L. Brewster, an Army private attached to the Headuarters Company, at Eight- eenth and C streets, in connection with revelations he has made of his knowl- edge of the circumstances surrounding the death of Mary Baker, Navy Depart- ment clerk, on April 11. Brewster was removed from the guar room at company headquarters today and again was taken to a closely guard- ed room in the Munitions Building, ‘where a group of Army medical officers renewed their mental examination of the man who alternately has confessed and denied his connection with the crime. Search also was being con- ducted for a bootblack at the Head- quarters Company who cleaned Brew- ster’s shoes about five weeks ago. The bootblack since has left the company ‘barber shop. Members of the medical board ex- amining Brewster are Majs. C. L. Max- well, Patrick 8. Madigan and William ©. Porter. It is not likely they will be able to make a report on the man's| g L . sanity for several days, but meanwhile he is under almost constant observation. Mary Baker was murdered six weeks ago today. 8ix weeks from tomorrow morning, her bullet torn and mutilated body was found in a stream of water leading into & culvert near the Sheridan gate of Arlington Cemetery, on & lonesome road which is little traveled after dark. She lm ‘Was seen II!Ve about 6 o'clock on "enin‘ of 11. that flme ‘Washington police, Arllnnon County suthorities, Depart- ment of Justice agents and Army in- tors carefully have checked every clue which might lead to identification of the murderer. Several arrests were Ol May 14, Brewster broke down under questioning by his superinr offi- cer on another matter and “confessed” to commission of the crime, bolstering his “confession” with details which ‘were known only to the police. Several hours later, while on a trip through nearby Virginia, where he was taken to reconstruct the crime, he repudiated his_earlier “confession” and later re- vealed additional details of the revolt- ing murder and assault. His alternate confessions and repudiations have so vu-!ed investigators that an opinion sought from an Army medical hurd as to the man's sanity. ‘Within the past week, “detectives working on the case have attempted to learn the whereabouts of Herman Barrere, a former soldier, who is de- clared to have known Miss Baker and to have knowledge of the crime.
