NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 1L—Under Pressure of popular opinion, It seems almost certain that the Judges of the Superior Court of Connecticut will order @ spectal Grand Jury to invest!- gate the murder of Charles A. Edwards, which Coroner Mix continues to cull a suicide. It seeme equally certain that if the Grand Jury does meet there will be indictments for homicide despite the Coroner's seemingly absurd conclusions.

Allan Maxcy Hiller and his brother have’ become fraternal after years of wrangling and bitter controversy over thelr share in thelr mother's estate. Meeting for the first time since the kill- dng of thelr brother-in-law, these two queer old men linked arms and walked across the green leading from the Hiller home to the drug store of Willis Mix. Maxcy Hiller has maintained that Mr. Edwards kliHed. himself since the night ater the discovery of the body. Maxcy and the Coroner agree on everv detail of the impossible suicide solution, but the Judge takes the other view and announces the belief that Mr. Edwards was murdered while he (Charles Hi!ler) slept 90 profoundly in an adjoining room.
