Hundreds of persons, men, women and children, were admitted, a few at a time, into the spacious courtyard of the Clinton street police station this afternoon to gaze on the face of a murdered man. It was an unusual procedure adopted by Deputy Police Commissioner Dougherty to solve a new trink murder mystery which was disclosed shortly after noon to-day when the body of a man was found jammed into a small trunk that had been deposited, a short time before, on the sidewalk in front of No, 47 Pitt street. Scores of detectives scoured the neighborhood for (wo men of whom they had good descriptions—one dapper and well dressed beyond the custom of folk of the vicinity; the other a typical pushcart peddler. The peddler brought the trunk, whence the police do not know, and at the command of the well dressed man he set it on the sidewalk, was paid for his trouble and made off. The other man went away in another direction after asking a small | boy to watch 1 the trunk for him. Police traced It to No. § Bherift street called that two men answering well the bar in and left a deposi Arined with a soap box and a pitcher ‘ tornea fore. \dentally she in delaying the $1,000,000 —— Through the number on the pusheare, WOMAN ON SOAP BOX which folk in the street had noticed, the where Louis Steir makes a businces ‘of renting pushcarts, Joseph Cooper, Stelr’a helper, was brought to the station and dueationed by Mr. Dougherty.
