2 STOND ALORS SHOWS ATENET 1 BEAD RS. MLS (Continued from First Page.) en cae i | | formed the first autopsy and rendered contradictory reports were present. Though applicati: has been made to the Supreme st in New York for permission to take the Rev. Mr Hall’s body from its grave in Green- wood Cemetery, Brooklyn, it has not been determined when the autops him will be repeated or what physt- cians will perform it The examination of the body of Mrs. Mills began at 8.40 o'clock to- day and was completed at 10 o'clock The physicians reported that: There were three bullet wounds in the murdered woman's head and they had recovered the bullets which were those of a 82 caliber automatic revolver. One wound was in the centre of the forehead on the edge of the hair. One was in the upper part of the right cheek. One was in the right temple. . The temple wound was the only one which the surgeon could trace 4 through the bone and tissues of the head. It had passed directly across the skull and had lodged ‘ » fn the flesh under the right ear, The impact of the bullets had caused several cracks In the skull besides the perforations through Fe which the missiles passed. Any one of the bullets would have @aused death ‘There was a mark on the upper Np which resembled a bullet wound, but it did not penetrate through the lip and did not dis- turb the teeth behind it. If it is @ bullet wound, the surgeons say, ft was made by a spent bullet which had alreacy encountered fome resistance. The possibility that the bullet which killed the Rev. Mr. Hall may have passed through his head and struck Mrs. Mills was not discussed in the report. The throat had been cut with a keenly sharp instrument. It was what the surgeons called 4 “neck- lace wound,” meaning that it was at the base of the neck, néarly encircling it. The carotid arter- fes, the jugular veins, the easo- phagus and the windpipe well all cut through. Gasnes to continue the cutting around the the neck were also visidle, but had apparently been frustrated by the failure to find a joint in the backbone. ‘There are a few scratches and scraped spots on the left arm which the surgeon reported to be negligible. Prosecutors Stricker and Beekman said that every item of this report supports them in their bellef that the murder or murders were moved by a frenzy of hatred growing out of Jealousy and revenge. EXPLAINS REPORT OF SUMMON- ING MRS. HALL, The report that Mrs, Hall had been called again before the Prosecutors of Middlesex and Somerset Counties yes- terday was explained to-day by the statement of detectives th countered Mrs, Hall accidentally at her home and talked with her. The detectives had gone to thr Hall home tg get the brother of Mrs Hall, Mr. William Stevens (as he has quested to be called, consistent with his strongly marked individual ity), Mrs. Hall met them at the door and the murders were discussed The detectives said Mrs, Hall more vehement than ever before in her assertions of her faith in th minister's purity of life and his dc votion to her. Miss Sally Peters, the energetic friend of Mrs. Hall who has taken charge of the household since Mr. Hall's death, announced to-day that Mrs, Hall was exasperated by the re peated hints of the prosecutors and others that she knew more about th murders than has been told. Mrs Hall, she said, had therefore arranged to have reporters of all the news pers from New York, Philadelphia, ark, Trenton, Paterson and the associations at her home at % o'clock this afternoon “Any question which anybody sub- mits to me in writing,” said Miss Peters, “will be taken to Mrs. Hall in another room and she will write out her answers, There is no ques- tion which may be asked which she will not answer.” The letter signed by Charlotte Mills, sixteen-year-old daughter of the murdered woman, at the instance of a volunteer adviser and sent to Gov. Edwards, apparently caused the Governor to withhold from Prosecutor Stricker the certificate of confidence which Mr. Stricker was reported ‘to have asked from the Governor terday. The two, who are intimate to the extent of greeting each other as “Ea” and ‘Joe,’ met at the State Fair at Trenton. Instead of issuing a public state- ment commending Mr. Stricker's con- duct of the case the Governor is re- ported to have said to the Prosecutor that with a crucial political c: coming on Mr. Stricker, who paign manager for Candidate Silzer for the Governorship, could not have served the party better than by for- getting politics and devoting himself altogether to bringing to justice the murderers of Mr. Hall and Mrs. Mills instead of leaving to the newspapers the developing of evidence and the a “One of the Finest Makes of Phonographs” discovery that second autopsies on the bodies was necessary. Willie € s, the errand boy of the clothing firm who delivered a new black suit to William Stevens at M-s. Hall's home on Saturday, following the finding of the bodies and took two old firemen’s uniforms of Stevens's to be cleaned, was sum- moned to the Court House at noon, Prosecutor Stricker’s recommenda- tion to the Board of Freeholders of a substantial reward for the solution of the crime resulted in the board of- fering one of $1,000 for the appre- hension and conviction of the mur- derer or murderers, but contingent upon the crime having been committed in Middlesex County, which seemingly vitiated the usefulness of the offer, especially ac Mr. Stricker had said he was morally certain the murders were committed just over the county line, in Somerset, where the bodies were found. The board recommended that the Somerset board offer a like re- ward and it meets to-day to act. The will of Mr. Hall was offered or probate in the Middlesex County Surrogate’s office, It leaves his en- tire estate to his widow and appoints her executirx. Two new witnesses have added strength to the theory that the slayers of the coupled followed them to their trysting place in automobiles. Jack White, who went out to the wireless station that night, told of seeing two utomobiles parked in the lane which eads to the Phillips farm, Williara O'Rourke, a contractor, who said tt was his practice to drive through Bucclough Park every eveaing, suid when he was driving with nis wife the night of the murder he saw something that he and the prosecutor believe may have been significant. Neither will tell what it was. ANOTHER ARREST MADE IN HOTEL DRUG RAID As a sequel to the raid on Sept. 22 in which drugs said to be worth $500,000 were seized and five men were arrested at the Douglas Hotel, No. 207 West 40th Street, detectives of Deputy Police Com- missioner Simon's Narcotic Squad ar- ested Harry Dweretzky, thirty-one, of No. 207 West 40th Street, yesterday Dworetzky, according to the police, is 1 brother of Benjamin Dworetaky, one ot the five arrested in the raid, and they both own the hotel.
