‘ODELL REPLIES PLEADS NOT "3 Formally Arraigned on a Charge of Killing Mabel Page, He Maintains His Composure and Denies All Knowledge of the Crime. (Special to The Evening World.) WALTHAM, Mass., April 11.—Charles L. Tucker, accused of mur- dering Mabel Page, of Weston, when arraigned to-day pleaded not guilty. The case was continued until Aprjl 21. Tucker was committed without bail to the ‘East Cambridge Jail. a The prisoner, in charge of State Officer Jophanus H, Whitney, reached the Court-House just before 10-o'’clock, and a moment later Tuck- er was in thedock in the court-room. At one side, near the prisoner’s in- closure, sat his father and mother and brother. he nodded in recognition. He gave no evidence of being disturbed at his position. In the court-room were James H. and Thomas H. Vahey, coun- selifor Tucker. The court proceedings occupied less than five minutes. When the judge had taken his place Thomas H. Vahey asked if an arraignment was Gesired to-day. The judge replied in the affirmative and ordered the com- plaint against Tucker to be read. ‘he prisoner arose without apparent hesitation As he did so he seemed to be hardly more than a youth, with smoothly shaven face, bright eyes and healthful, color. “le wore a blue serge suit. and in spite of rather low stature appeared to be of athletic build. The complaint charged Tucker with having murdered Mabel Page “by cuttiny and stabbing” at Weston on March 31. While the complaint was being read Tucker apparently paid little attention to. the proceedings. Occasionally he looked at the clerk, but most of the:time his eye was roaming about the room. As soon as the reading was finished, im a clear voice Tucker pleaded “Not guilty.” Coun- sél then asked for a continuance of ten days, and April 21 was named for the further hearing. The finding of a knife in his home, which was broken, and also a knife sheath found in a wagon in which Tucker rode to Weston on the day of the murder, are the stropgest links in the chain of evidence against the suspect. The knife was found late last night after the police had gone to Tucker’s home and searched it from roof to cellar, Carefully concealed in an unused part of the house, the police came upon a large Swedish clasp knife. It was broken. ‘Itis of a peculiar pattern, and when shown to Tucker at the prison he admitted that it was his, Admits Hiding the Knife. “How did you break it?” he was asked, “I broke it myself,” he answered. “I broke it some day last week, probably Tuesday. 1 put it away myself and hoped to hide it, because | did not want to have it in my room. | did not think it would look well after my name was brought into the murder of Miss Page.” After finding the knife the fact developed that the sheath which was found in the wagon fitted the broken blade. The sheath was found by Harry Woodward who, with Mabel Walker, a relative, was driving from Auburndale to Weston, and as they crossed the Riverside Bridge they saw Tucker and a young man named Harry Bourne there. Half an hour or so later they drove back over the same road, and after they had re- crossed the bridge into Auburndale Tucker and Bourne boarded the wagon and rode a short distance with them. After the two got out nd pro- ceeded on their way the knife sheath was found in the wagon, it is said, The portion of the knife found in Tucker’s house and clothes taken from there by the officers have been sent to Boston for examination of supposed blood-stains by Prof. Wood, of the Harvard Medical School. In the sheath was the imprint of four teeth. To Prove that the sheath was Tucker's and to satisfy themselves that he carried the knife on the day he was in Weston the police have engaged Dr, Pomfred, a West Newton dentist, to take an impression of Tucker’s mouth, “LEAPFROMWINDOW WITH BAYINARMS With a emall haby in her arm Catherine Brancardo, thirty-one old, of No, $2 Forty. atreet, | Brooklyn, jumped out of a necond-atory | window to-day. ‘The mother wax found on the sidewalk in front of her house Unconscious. ‘The screams of the infant attracted tite attention of the police to the couple.
