CLUE IN BEDFORD. * Doctor Goes to See if Ampu- tated Leg Found There Can Clear Mystery. ° ‘That the woman's torro found in the waters off Communipaw was washed over from the East River was the be- Net expressed to-day by Philip Leon- ard, Acting Police Chief of Jersey City. Ho said Dr. A. P. Husking, County | Physician of Hudson County, was en route to Bedford, Mass, to examine the amputated leg of a Woman found there, and that he wan confident he could determine whether or not the limb had been severed from the torso now in Pryor’s Morgue, Jersey City. Chief Leonard said be was positive the torao had not been carried down the North River but had been washed around from the East River by a strong current which skirts the Bat- tery, striking at a point on the Je: sey shore, 200 feet south of the south- ernmost tip of Manhattan. All the Griftwood there is from the East River. The Acting Chief requested the newspapers to invite all persons who have information about women disappearing after death threats to notjfy the police, ‘wo well-dressed young men at @iffefent times to-day viewed the torso, One sald it resembled that of his wife, who had disappeared, The second man became confused under questioning and went away. The torso had been in the river for months, the autopsy showed, and was well preserved, which led the investi- gators to believe that the murderer hid the body in a receptacle contain- ing a preservative fluld for possibly ‘weeks before he found an opportunity to dismember and dispose of the body. The murderer operated in close quar- tera, possibly a bathroom, the work wag done crudely and his posi- tion evidently was cramped. The saw ‘used was fine-toothéd, The age of the woman, Dr, Haskins sald, was between twenty and forty, and she apparently weighed about 130 pounds, John H. Domrosky, No. 658 West 184th Street, visited the morgue to inquire about fis wife, who, he said, had been missing since June 23. He refused to look at the torso, The de- scription he gave did not tally with, that of the slain woman, ———--- NO STATE LAWS NEEDED TO GIVE WOMEN THE VOTE U. S.

IS IN DEBT ABOUT TWICE ITS BORROWING POWER Funded, Indebtedness July Amounied to $1,561,709,- 687, According to Craig. Comptroiier Charlies L. Craig has Just issued for the. information of clty officials, bankers and investors and others interested in a compre- hensive statement showing the in- debtednere of the City of New York and the @ity'’s debt-incurring power on July 1of this year, It shows that New York hig a predit inside the debt Mnatt of nearty $23,000,000, The real estate assessment of the city, the value of real estate for tax- ation purposes for 1920 is $8,626,121,- 107, Under the law the otty ts allowed to inouir debts within the so-called dein limit to the extent of 10 per cent. of the assessed valuation of taxable real estate. Ten per cent. of the real estate valuation for 1920 ts $826,612,170, But the otty already had outstand- ing dn July 1 a funded debt amount- ing to the vast total of $1,661,700,687 On the face of the figures tt would appear that the city ds in debt to the extent of about twice what it is on- titled to borrow, In this caso figures are deceptive. ‘There are credits against the funded ‘debt in the way of outstanding coun- ty bonds, centain water bonds and corporate stock notes, rapid transit onds and dock hondsd of $396,342,069. ‘The® are further credits in the way of sinking fund holdings for the re- demption of the funded debt and minor items amounting to $64,686,405, These credits reduse the total funded debt as it applies to the debt limit to 724,677,211, However, the city has other debts, other than the funded debt, which are charged against the debt limit to the amount of $66,056,037. This, added to the last total above, makes the total indebtedness of the city within the debt limit $790,738! and $790,788,249 sub- tracted from the $862,612,170 total bor- rowing powel based on 10 per cent. of the assesved valuation of real estate leaves a balance of $71,878,920, ‘Another B intervenes, The city in past years bhs authorized the ex- penditure of various large sums of money for rapid transit, docks, schools and.other public tmprove- ments. The expenditures have not heen completed. The unenoumbered balance amount to 92,147 and while this sum is not properly a debt yet it represents appropriations which will be spent and must by law bs charged against the city’s debt limit, Therefore on July 1 of this year the city could have legally bororwed, within the debt Imit, $71,878,920, less $88,992,147, or $22,886,773. This information, compiled and distributed at great expense, should be vastly soothing to numerous tax- payersw hose borrowing capacity is Mmited to $10 or lees.

Searles.” This, from an old resident of the quiet, well-ordered little town in which the eccentric millionaire Hved eo many secluded years, 4: here at last only a brief while ago, epito- mizes the man as Methuen seems most sharply to remember him—a builder of stone 3, It was behind si walls, not only thick and unscalable, but guarded as well, that Edward F. Searles Ilved his remarkable life and died just a few steps beyond the threshold of his sev~ enty-ninth year. He shut himself @way from every one save a few friends and he was a very lonely old man, for all that it was his own do- ing. ‘The walls upon wpich the moinory of him is built are, in truth, every- ‘wheré in Methuen, On the outskirts of the town his 600-acre cataté is girt with one that suggests the bastion of a fortress, with eallyports and frown- ing gateways—and two sentinels al- ‘ways on guard at the main entrance. His home, within this Inclosure, Pine Lodge, is a mediaeval cluster of modern buildings, with towers and columns and spires. it was a place well chosen for shutting oneself away. ‘Then, too, there are wails to ourb and hold the hy tid st that flows through the lower part df the town, with great turrets at intervals along them. And there is a stone bridge and a series of stone steps—every- thing is stone, It seems that this strange man sought to express himself fn but one way—stone, Once when he sold two old build- ings and they were ready to be torn down he called attention to the fact that he had sold the buildings only, not the stone foundations on which they rested; he wanted that stone for something else. KNOWN ONLY BY HIS ECCEN- TRICITIES.. ‘The townsfolk of Methuen knew Bearles's ntricities better than they knew jes, There had been a time when they were surprised at him and the things he did, but as the yeara went on and stranger things happened, they came to luck upon him with an expectant interest, walting to see what be would plan next. He was always planning. He had a great stat of magons and carpentors, employed by the year, to carry out his plans. But he never seemed to be quite sat- isfled with what be and they had done, ‘One afternoon he gave an, organ recital in Serlo Hall, which adjol ithe organ factory he built at the rive: edge. Only twelve persons were { vited to attend, and after some dis- tinguished player from Boston had entertained the company, Searies himself played. His instrument was fan antique organ, one of the earliest types of organ ever brought to the country. He was a superd musician, the people say, and often whiled away hours at one or another of the three great at Pine Lodge. During the recital he sat gazing at the white and gold ceiling of the hall. Tu to a man next to him, he pal ‘How long do you think It took the workmen to build that ceiling?" In response to the friend's failure to Stone Walls.

Searles, who deft the bulk of his $50,000,000 estate to his business seoretary, Arthur T. Walker of Brooklyn. The contest was virtually announced to-day ny the nephéw's counsel, Guy W. Currier, who enid there is plenty of time until Sept. 6, to take the initial steps. He declined to outline the nature of the contest before filing the papers. There is good authority, however, for the statement that the main fight will be to get the will before a jury. Under the Massachusetts law the Judge of the Probate Court may send the case to the Supertor Court for a jury trial on the facts, Under a ro- cent amendment to tho Jaw it is per- missible for the court and jury to ret aside parts of a will. This makes possible a drive on that clause of the will giving to Walker the great bulk of the estate. Because of the feeling against Searles in Methuen and surrounding territory and bis general reputation of being “queer,” Ropes, Gray, Gor- ham & Perkins, local counsel for the will, may be expected to use every effort to have the instrument passed upon without the assistande of a Jury. Bearles’s feeling inst Methuen and against the State is reflected in bis will, in which he directs that per- sonal property be transferred in New York, The bulk of this property is) in New York, and that State would have “received the transfer taxes on {t Irrespective of his wishes, but the Instruction ghows the persistency with which Ne held the grudge ac- quired when the Massachusetts State authorities insisted he pay more taxes than the local authorities were imposing.
