Dead Operator’s Book Has| Chronicle of Many Society Names, PHILADELPHIA, July 3—Tre dis- eovery of more tangible clues has put the police so close on the trail of Dr. William H. Wilson's polsoner that his arrest is expected to-day, and the other arrests contemplated have been @eterred. The murderer |s said to be ) @ millionaire, The man who printed the fraudulent letter-:ead on which the letter asking | the doctor to test the ale was writ- fen has been found 2nd has given & Gercription of the man who had the printing done. The bottle containing the ale was left at the Philadelphia Local Express Com- pany’s office, No. 116 North Thirteenth street, June 2% by a stranger and re- ceived by Fred Buckman, who had it} delivered to the doctor's homa, No. 819 North Seventh street. The description of the man who had the printing done, of the one who brought the package to the express office and of the one sus- pected by the police is the same. George Stern, the express company agent, says, as he remembers the re- celpt, it bore the name of Mrs. Wilson. The case has been so strengthened by) the progress following the new and| important information that the woman Or women under suspicion have been merely kept under continued surveil- lance Shield His Patients. ‘The doctor's entry book, which {s said to be a veritable record of scandal, is delng closely cuarded by the District- Attorncy, and is said to contain the} mames of women high in respected cir- eles in Philadelphia and New York. | As soon as the District-Attorney has Obtained info-mation necessary in the case he will have the book dectoved, A letter that is expected ty figure) largely in the case was recelved by| the police the day following the pol-| soning, posted at Bristol, Pa., and says in substance: “I am 4 printer. I killed Wilson be- cause he was a menace to society. He poiso-od my wife and ohild. That is Why 1 killed him, He had no right to Mve. The world is well rid of him.” The description of the man who sent the bottle of ale tallies with that of one of the five who have been under suspicion because they might have had @ motive. This man is experienced in brewing, and would know how the tin crown cap stopper could be removed from a dottle and replaced without de- tection. u The police have learned that some years ago this man brought from Ger- many @ niece, and sent her to Dr. Wil- son.
