NEW SEARCH Brought From Hyannis Churchyard to Boston for Further Evidence Against Accused Pastor and Hunt for Cyanide Vial. “DESPICABLE CRIME,” SAYS FATHER OF REV. RICHESON Southern Colonel, Certain of Son’s Innocence, Brings Additional Counsel From Virginia. (Special From a Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) BOSTON, Oct. 24.—The grave of Avis Linnell at Hyannis was reopened to-day and the body of the poisoned girl was brought to Boston for a re-examination by the chemical experts employed by District-At- torney Pelletier. The investigation made by the medical examiner before the burial in the little village churchyard had not been of the thorough character desired by the Suffolk County prosecutor. There was also some uncertainty that the pockets of the bathrobe, which was buried with the body, had been properly searched for the container of the poison that the Rev. Clarence V. T. Richeson is charged with having provided to the girl, persuading her that it was a medicine that would bring about a change in her physical fondition. Myron G. Bradford, the Hyannis undertaker who had prepared the body for burial, had charge of the exhumation, under the direction of representatives of the District-Attorney’s office. A throng of villagers stood about the flower-strewn grave and eilently watched the tearing up of the sod and the removal of the casket. PROSECUTOR DEMANDS STRICTER SEARCH. None of the prosecutor's staff would make any explanation of the purposes of the exhumation, From another source it was sald that Dis- trict-Attorney Pelletier was not at all satisfied with the autopsy performed by Medical Examiner Leary, nor with his statement that his assistants had searched the girl’s bathrobe for evidence of the nature of the poison container. On the other hand, the medical ex- that a ————_—__. aminer sald pos! to-day most thorough nh was made by himself and by his assistants, He 18 sure that there Was not even a crumpled slip of paper in the 3 of the bathrobe or anyy r the body when he was in by the police.

Thetr arrival in New York for the big naval review next Monday was an in- spiring sight. It was just 1 o'clock when through the haze and smoke the big military masts of the flagship Con- necticut were sighted from the Battery. Within a few minutes other military masts and smoking funnels were sight- ed, and soon the vast throngs who crowded the water front saw the huge monsters of war with thelr ominous war Paint steam up and enter the Hudeon. ‘Thrills ran up and down the spines of everyone who beheld the stately pro- cession of battleships. The most Yor- matic peace advocate in the world could not but be moved a bit by the sight. Just before the fleet arrived in the Up- per Bay, a Soctalist lecturer was hold- ing the attention of a motley throng in Battery Park. He was preaching peace on 1, ete., ete. In the midst of his harangue an urchin yelled, “Here dey * and the advocate of pelalism found himself minus an audience.
