Woods, Picture of a Fa- mous Little SAID TO BE MRS. VOTTLER, ONCE WELL KNOWN HERE. There Are Many Indications of Violence—She Was Expen- sively Dressed, but Her Hat Has Not Yet Been Found. Alton Parker Hall, : Judge Parker's Grandson. Sketched from life at Esopus by KATE CAREW. Bearing every indication of violenes, @ female body, sald to be that of Mrs. Kathleen Barry Vottler, once well known ip sochty in this city and Wash. ington, has been found in the Bedell woods, between Whitestone and Bay- side, LL F The body was found last night by William Meisel and William Hinch- man, two emali boys, who were out hunting for an apple tree that they could plunder, They found the body under @ tree, and were so frightened that they ran away, screaming at the top of their lungs. When they got {nto Whitestone and described what they had seen the police sent men out to get the body, and it is now in the Morgue there. ‘The body ts that of a worman about foriy years of Bhe wore « tallor- made gown of black covert cloth, ex- pensively made and lined with silk. She wore @ linen shirtwaist and under- clothing of ‘ting make. Her hat was missing, her collar was torn to shreds and her veil had been twisted about her neck like a cord, Although no autopsy has been made on the body, the police are pretty well satisfied that the woman was assaulted and that the vell around her neck was used to strangle her, although it was afterward loosened. Her Teeth Knocked Out, Boveral of the woman's lower teeth had been knocked out, but it was im- possible to tell how recently she lost them, There were @ number of marks on the body and some on the neck, but as the body had evidently been lying where it was found for weeks it was impossible to be certain of the exact cause of theve marks. The woman wore & plain mold wed- ding ring, but there was no inscription in it and there were no marks on any article of clothing that she wore by which her identity could be established. Bhe had evidently been handsome woman and beyond doubt was « woman of refinement and education, Long before any headway was made in identifying her the police made up thelr minds that the woman had been criminally assaulted before her death. There was plenty of evidence of & struggle, and the finding of the body in euch @ bonely, out of the way place as the Bedell woods seemed pretty good evidence that some such thing had oo curred. Assaults are not infrequent in this patch of country and even in the day- time women do not venture near them unless they are escorted. All through tlthe summer soldiers from the fort at ‘Willett’s Point hang around these woods and it Is belleved that some of the men at the post know something of the death of the woman, Identification Nog Pusitive, There is nothing positive about the identification of the body as that of Mrs. Kathleen Vottler, although a num- ber of people who knew ‘that woman slightly have seen the vody and are sure it is she, They say that in addition; looking like her the clothing on the body is precisely the same as that which Mrs, Vottler wore when she dis- appeared from Whitestone some months “The Opal o PEMBERTON. From Mill to Millions. at Newport. Mrs, Vottler was not so well known in Whitestone as she was in Manhattan, She was 9 daughter of John Little, the publisher, and a niece of Daniel G. Manning, Secretary of the Treasury under President Cleveland. As Katl- leen Little she was well known among the younger social set, She finally mar- ried Thomas Barry, a élerk of the Board of Education and a nephew of John D. Crimmins. The two lived in Flushing for a while, but afterward came to this city, They had one child, Some years ago the couple separated and a divorce was secured.
