J., Feb. 33 P — Robbery was believed by police to- day te have been the motive for the burning to death Monday night of a woman they Identified as Miss Margaret Brown, 40 years old, em- ployed until Monday morning as a governess in a Park avenue, New York, home. Lieut. of Detectives Fred Roff of Morris county said that when Miss | Brown left the home of her em- ployer, James P. Glllesple, of 1105 Park avenue, she had with her $8.- 000 in bonds and $1,000 in cash. No bonds or cash were found in the woman's clothing. Roft said identification had been “'made by Miss Mary Brown, a sister, I ot Fort Lee, N. J., from descrip- tions of the dead woman's clothing, a watch and a scar on the body. The detective advanced the theory that the woman had been attacked and robbed in New York and brought to New Jersey in an auto- mobile. The woman, her clothing “ soaked in gasoline and ablaze, was found by a motorist on the road between Bernardsville and Morris- town. She died at the All Souls’ hospital early yesterday. At the Glllespie home it was said that when Miss Brown left thelr employ she said she was going west to reside. . Mrs. Gillespie sald Miss Brown had some money With her when " she left, but she had no idea it was as large an amount as the police : reported. Mrs. Gillespie added that Miss Brown had been in her employ for about ten months. Nothing was known of her personal affairs, but Mrs. Gillespie said she had proven trustworthy and had performed her duties satisfactorily. She had told Mra Gillesple she had been em- ployed as a governess for about 15 years before going to the Gillespie home. Identification of the woman was established shortly after an autopsy had revealed that death came either from suffocation or burns. * Prosecutor Francis ~Bergen maid -there was no .evidence that the woman had been beaten or drugged. | A further investigation as to the cause of death is to be made, how- ever, and the stomach, liver and 1f you smoie for pleasure lungs of the woman have been seat te a New Brunswick laboratory to ascertain whether they contain traces of drugs or liquor. Polics investigation was being concentrated in a search for a se- dan automobile which was seen near the patch of woods where the woman was found. This fact was held by the police to strengthen their theory -that the womam had | been brought to the spot in an au- tomobile, SANDINO MAY GAIN NEW RECRUITS FOR HIS WAR Laborers on Banana Plantations Might Rise and Join Rebel Chieftain Against Americans. Managua, Nic., Feb. 22 UP—Possi- | {bility of the rebel general Augus- | tino Sandino gaining additional re- cruits in his campaign against the American marines was geen today. Laborers on banana plantations north of the Rio Grande might rise and join the rebel movement with | |the purpose of looting the commis- | sary stores of the Cuyamel Fruit company and the Bragman Bluff Lumber company, it was thought, | [Many persons on the Caribbean coast, in which direction Sandino is rumored to be heading, are known to be partisans of the 8andino move-| ment and to be against General Jose | Maria Moncada, liberal nominee for | the presidency. Indian scouts sent out to seek the rebels brought back the report to Bluefields that Sandino had passed |through Pena Blanca, department bl: | Jinotega. | It was regarded as possible that| he might attack either of three| |po|nu on the coast, Cabo Gracias, near the Honduran frontier; Puerto Cabezas or Rio Grande. It was thought a raid on Cabo Gracias was the more likely, since its more or less isolated position made its the safer port to attack. A marine corps scouting plane was fired on about 50 miles north- east of Jinotega. The plane was not hit and the pilot reported see- ing only four men in the attacking party. It was assumed that these men were followers of Sandino. In accepting the presidential nomination, General Moncada strongly approved supervision of the national election next October by the United States as outlined in the Stimson agreement. He pointed to Cuba as being made an independ- | ent nation through the good offices of the United Btates and to Porto Rico as enjoying “a free and pros- perous lfe.' He added: “The | United States is still the bulwark of |our independence.” ‘ GROUND BROKEN AT VALLEY FORGE FOR WASHINGTON MEMORIAL CHURCH A ten-million dollar church (left) is to rise in m&mory of George Washington at Valley Forge, where 150 years ago he spent a bitter winter at the head of his Revolutionary troops.

Ground has been broken today on the sloping hills of Valley Forge for a $10,000,000 Washington Me- | morial church—a nation's tribute to George Washington and the patriots of the Revolution. One hundred and fifty years ago Washington spent his forty-sixth birthday at Valley Forge.

Funds for the erection of the church are to be raised by popular 22 (P— subscription by the Rev. Dr. W. Herbert Burk, founder and rector of the Washington Memorial chapel. He has asked that ten million per- | sons contribute one dollar each as a { Washington Birthday gift. A large sum has already been received. A 15-acre site, overlooking the Schuylkill river and valley has been purchased for the memorial church, of 5000.
