That there was something more than a suichlé ‘connected with the ‘attempt tb wreck an extra freight train of the New Haven road two and one-half miles south of here a week ago last Wednesday night s again recelving credence in official cfr- cles. Charles Jencks, victim of the af- fair, may have committed suicide, but there- is reason for belleving that he was murdered. He may have attempted to weeck the train, and then again he may not. A brother-in-law of Jencks Willlam Willlams. of Webster, aroused new inter- est n the case Thursday by findng, at the Jocaton of the attempted wreck and Jencks' death, two more large loops of wire exactly like the wire used in lashing the old railroad ties to the tracks. These loops of wire, now in the posses- sion of Coroner Bill. were picked up mid- way between the railroad and the spot a Httle way distant in the Wood ~ where Jencks' coat, vest and raincoat and two hats were picked up the morning after the affafr. The loops had not been used, it is evident, though ready for use in lashing ties :> the tracks” The loops of wire are between. three and four feet in diameter, the ends) twisted securely to- gether to make a circular form. The ends of the strands appear to have been freshly cut with some sharp instrument adapted to such a purpose. Findir special interest of Coroner BiH, who is inciined to believe that Jencks was not alone, at where hie body was found, some time before the train smashed-into-the Tier of ties lashed across the track. here are various theories as to what might have taken place. Jencks' where. abouts from the time he left his home fn Providence two days before he was found dead beside the frack up to the time:of his death Is not known. Not an inklihg of his wanderfgs {s Known in official circles. One possibility is that he hap- pened aiong as traln wreckers were en- gaged in lashing tles to the track and was killéd by them 'and left there. It is pointed ont that he was really an invalid and- seemingly “fmeapable’ot Handling heavy ties and lashing them to the rails. Finding of the additional loops of wire likely will lead to a searching investiga- tion in an effort to clear up definitely all the clrcimstances attending the attempt- ed train wrecking.
