ivy were placed everywhere to advan- h

tags and particular attention had been
paid to the stage. across the front of
which were a host of Jack lanterns
displaying grotesque features, some
large and some small. Jack lanterns
were also placed at other points. At
the back end of the stage was sus-
pended a large scare crow dubbed

"Raffles,". who had a jack lantern

head.

Suspicious Circumstances ile-
garding the Death of hire.
Todd Are Being Investigated

 

 

 

NEW YORK. Nov. 1. «Acting upon
a suspicion that Mrs. Margaretta Todd,
a wealthy widow, aged ninty-six years,
was a victim of foul play. Coroner
Scholer. of this city. and Coroner Du-
gan. of Philadelphia. today commenced
a searching investigation of the myss
terious facts attending her death and
the puzzling moves that preceded and
followed it. The value of Mrs. Todd’s
estate is estimated at more than $150“
000 and possibly $1,000,000, She own-
ed and lived in the Von Hoffman ap-
artments in West Twenty-sixth street,
and owned other real-estate in this
city. She were when found dead in
Philadelphia, last Frida several thou-
sand dollars' worth of ewels. :

On Thursday last, the day before
Mrs. Todd's ’deatli. George G. lins-
tings, a lawyer, who had acted as
counsel for Mrs. Frank Tousey. Mrs.
Todd‘s daughter. was asked to go to
Mrs. Todd's apartments to draw up a
new will for her. She said she had
lost a previous one. The drawing up
of the. new will was postponed until
the following Monday after Mrs. Todd
had told the lawyer what she wanted.

0n the following day Mrs. Todd
started to lens the Von Hoffman ap-
artments, saying that she was going
to visit friends in Orange, N. J.
Strong objections to her going was
made by some of the persons about
her, but a Miss Knights appeared at
that moment and offered to accompany

er. : -

Objection was then withdrawn.

it has been learned since that Mrs.
Todd was driven in a cab to the Bai-
timore & Ohio Railroad station in this
city, where she was met by an un-
known man. Nobody knows what he
came of Miss Knight, and she has
not since been found by persons who
have inquired for her. Mrs. Todd was
seen on board a train on the way
to Philadelphia and to leave the train
at 6 p. m., in that city. Four hours
later she was found dead on the tracks
of the Readin Railroad several miles
distant from t 9 place where she had
left the train. Her body was mangl-
ed, possibly by passing trains. Her
jewelry was intact. .

Mr. Hastings, the lawyer, said to-
day that when Mrs. Todd's body was
brought to New York Ingersoil Lock-
wood, who had previously noted as at-
torney for Mrs. Todd. requested that
her body be cremated. but her relat-
ives had countermanded the request.
The body was placed in a vault in a
cemetery.

Yesterday Ingersoll mckWOod filed
a will executed by Mrs. Todd in 1908,
which was‘the will Mrs. Todd said she
had lost. In it she bequeathed the
greater part of her estate to her
daughter. Mrs. Frank Tousey, wife of
the publisher. The will also gave
8500 to Mr. Lockwood.

Mr, Hastings, the lawyer, said to-
day that this will was practically nulli-
iled if a trust deed which Mr. Lock.
wood declares he holds of Mrs. Todd's
estate is properly. drawn. This trust
deed, Mr. hocinvood said, covered the
entire estate sitcom? about $6,000.

A further complication ‘ yesterday
was the filing b an unknown person
of a deed by w icb Mrs. Todd trans-
ferred to Mrs. Tonsoy the Von Hoff.
man apart out. ‘ . ‘

The outgo’Sties‘sre unable to dis-
cover liow rs. 'l‘odd reached the
point where she «tallied nor wheth-
er she was a victim of s. crime. The
fact that Coroner Scholar and Coron-
er Dugsn have taken the case it
makes it appear that murder is» as
posted. it appears that they are con-
fronted by a bafflingand m storious

case.‘ A suspicion. that , hall
been used is evldlrhtiy- cuts by

to Make no dilator for Quar-
ters In South NorwslkwAn-

. lmaied Discussion Before
Vole Was Taken

The efforts or 8. C. Palmer, Edwin
Adams, Andrew Leary and others to
have a rental charged ‘for the use of
rooms in the Concord street school for
the use of. the town high school. met
an inglorious defeat last evening in a
meeting held at the Franklin school.
which deleveloped into one of the most
bitter school meetings held in some
time. It was a meeting in which there
were few dull moments, personalities
being interspersed with arguments as
thick as plums in a pudding.

The meeting was ailcd to order in
the auditorium of the Franklin school
at 8:10 o‘clock by Abiathsr Blanch-
ard, chairman of the school board. The
call was read and accepted. The at-
tendance, when the meeting was call-
ed. was not as large as at former
school meetings. but those present ap-
peared to be much interested in the
question up for discussion.

The only business to come before
the meeting was that of voting on the
question of charging rent to the town
for the use of the rooms in the new
Concord street school.

William li‘. Tammany was selected
as temporary clerk of the meeting.

George H. Vosburgh was chosen as
chairman.

The business of the meeting was
brought up by Edwin Adams, who said
that he had been told that the town
proposed using the rooms in question
and had purchased furnituie He asked
if this was true,

Mr. Blanchard replied that no for-
mal action had us yet been taken. but
that it is proposed to use the upper
portion of the building for high school
purposes and. that when the new high
school is built the school will be re
moved to it. ' .

Mr. Adams thought that it moned
strange that the town intended toiuse
gem of a building built by the onion

heel District for its own purposes.
[is wanted to know upon what con-
ditions the proposed step was to be
taken.

Mr. Blanchard said that they went
in under power of a vote taken ii
couple of years ago.

Mr. Adams thought. it looked as if
the town was going to occupy the
building in a way which it has no
right to do. He thought that the ac-
tion of the committee in allowing the
use of the building was illegal.

Mr. Blanchard said he did not pro
pose to discuss points of law with
Mr. Adams and then went into the
history of the affair.

S. C. Palmer then presented the fol-
lowing resolution:

Moved, that the school committee of
this district is hereby authorized to
rent to the towu for the use of its
high school any rooms in the new
Concord street school house, not need-
ed for its own schools, at an annual
rental of —-— dollars for each school
room used; but nothing in this motion
shall be so construed as to permit any
of the school rooms to be used as a
laboratory or for the making of any
chemicals or other experiments or
tests where gases or liquids of any
kind are used.

The resolution was seconded by An-
drew Leary.
Mr. Palmer then spoke regarding it
He said that his ancestors had fought
and bled for the principle that there
should be.no unjust taxation. He said
that the district is being unjustly tax-
ed for the high school, and reviewed
the history of the high school. He
thought that the rent free plan is a
great injustice. The two districts
which are furnishing rooms havo 1,800
pupils on the roll, and the other dis
tricts have more.
"Are you taxed?" asked Mr. Swarts.
“You have asked me that before.
Mr, Swarts. and it's a nasty question."
replied Mr. Palmer.

repeated Mr.

“Are you taxed?"

Swat-ts. .

"You do not raise yourself in the
estimation of your fellow townsmen
by- asking it." replied Mr. Palmer.
"Yes. sir, i am taxed. i have answer-
ed you. Perhaps if your debts were
paid. your taxes would not be so high.
So much for a nasty attack."

Mr. Palmer then continued his dili-
sertation on unjust taxation.

Mr. Light stated to the voters at the
time of the meeting two years ago
that the school was to be rent free.
Mr. Palmer claimed that the vote
was illegal, or it needed a two-thirds
vote of the district meeting.

Mr. Palmer said: ~"ilentlemen, it
isn't right, because we have been giv-
ingmwsy our school rooms for sersi-al
years. to continue it. it isn't right
and you aren't going to Wit. i believe
that any taxpayer can apply for an
iuiunction from sny‘court to prevent
this, if it is carried out. The people
of the town should pay for it. not two
districts." . ,
,Mr. Blanchard said that the .stato-
‘ment of Mr. Palmer regarding the num-
ber of scholars wns incorrect. He also
corrected Mr. Palmer on several min
or points. ‘

’Mr. Adams went into figures from

Boston Police Awaiting the Ar-
rival of Morris Nathan from
Pillsbury, When New Devoi-
cpmsnls Are Expected in the
brass Suit Murder Case

BOSTON Nov. L—Pending the ar-
rival of rris Nathan. the theatre
book seller who has been detained in
the suit case mystery. it was expected
here today that no arrest of physicians
would be made until after the ofliciais
at police headquarters had had an op-
portunity to question the young man
who is held because of the death of
Miss Susan A. (leery, the alleged vic~
tim. in police circles something of a
sensation was caused by the statement
of ‘ Attorney Sisklnd, representing Na:
than. that he hoped to show that. Miss
Geary is, in feel, alive and that he
expected to demonstrate this by pro-
ducing the young woman. This state
ment by the attorney was read with
pecunnr interest in Cambridge, where
the Gearys lived, because of the fact.
that some members of the (lean-y fam-
ily were not not sin that the rings
found upon the ands of the victim
were those of Susan. This statement
was of interest also to the police, since
it suggested Nathan's possible defence
and emphasized the necessity also of
the commonwealth proving positively
that the dismembered parts found in
the suit cases, the head being missing,
wiere portions of the body of the Scary
8 vi.

The receipt from Plttsburg of the
note sent to the manager of the Shop-
herd King Company on the night of
its opening in Lowell. and signed "P.
A. Smith. M. D., Boston," explaining
that Miss Geai'y could not appear on
account of illness, has enabled the au-
thorities to compare the writing with
that of the note mailed to Mrs. Geary.
mother of the dead girl, from Salem
in September 19, enclosing $6 for Miss.
Geary‘s father. This comparison has
convinced the police that the notes
were written by the same person. As
Mrs. (leery says that the handwriting
in the Salem note was that of her
daughter, the authorities assume that
both missives were written by Miss
Geary after she went. to the place in
Boston where on operation was to be
performed and that one was signed
with the fictitious name “P. A. Smith.
M. D.,“ and the other, to hide the writ-
er‘s whereabouts, was sent by a friend
to Salem, where the theatrical com-
pany was playing on the night it was
there. Besides being written in the
same hand the notes are on identical
paper. A puzzling feature. however,
is the possibility that the Salem note
was not mailed until after the death
of the woman and after the purchase
of the suit cases at the office of the
Boston pawnbroker's establishment.

The letter was mailed at 6:80 p. m..
at Salem, September 19. Pawnbrokers
Berkman and Rhubin sold the suit
cases in which the parts of the body

 

September 19.

At 10 o’clock today Chief William
Watts. of the Bureau of Criminal In-
vestigation, said: "i am not prepared
to state what charge we shall prefer
against Nathan when .he arrives in
Boston from Plttsburg." The evidence
as far as it has been disclosed, it is
said, would, under the statutes. call
for a charge of "accessory to criminal
malpractice."

lolin 'Lenoyel, While Drunk, Ad-
mils that lie Broke Window!
in Israel’s Dry Goods Siorel

Chief of Police Vollmer, accompan‘
led by Detective Sergeant Paul Popp,‘
started out yesterday to look for the
man who burglarised lsrael's dryl
goods store in Benton street. They‘
finally located the man they were after,
through a slip of the tongue made by
him. The fellow was John Lengyei,
aged twenty-two years. Some 8
ago hengyel was illted by the girl of
his heart and since that time he has.
been engaged in. the fruitless task of'
trying to drown his sorrow. His sor-
row seems to be very buoyant, how-_.
ever, and yesterday he was ‘crasy‘
drunk. When Chief Vollmer tried to
arrest him he put up a stubborn light
and Chief Vollmer's knuckles were
more or less scratched by the time he
reached the lockup with the prisoner.
At first lengyel denied having stolen
the goods, but later broke down and
confessed he had been drunk and
smashed in the window, taking the
goods which are valued at $8 and
hidden them in the woods. They
were recovered today. irengyel’s case
will probably come up tomorrow.

nue, Bridgeport, telephoned Mr. Stiles
that a horse was dying on the side of
the road. Mr. Stiles shot the horse.
it was this foundered horse. Mr. Stiles
claimed in the city court that the
horse had iockiaw, which it is alleg-
ed, was not true. as the horse ate his
breakfast that morning. The other
horse, used four or five days, con»
tracted what appeared to be a collar
tumor, on seeing which Mr, Beckwith
sent the horse to Dr. Martin, the vet-
erinarian, who rumoved the tumor
and gave the animal medicine pnd
meshes and cautioned Mr. Beckwlth
not to use the horse further for
draught work, but to use him for light
work. Mr. Beckwith did not use the
horse at all, it is alleged, but gave him
the care the doctor prescribed. .

On October 13, John Williardson,
through James Jacques. sent for the
horses and took them into his posses-

During the fighting between relight
and Jews in Dalnitskaya street. last
night, thirty-seven persons were killed .
and eighty-one sei'iously wounded ware ‘ ‘
taken to the hospital.

The news that Russia had been
granted a constitution continued to
create enthusiasm until a late hour
yesterday. All work was suspended
and the streets were. blocked. with
cheering crowds. At the town hall
red flag demonstrations were charged ‘
by Cossacks who caused their horses ~ '
to trample on thetpeopie. The num‘
ber of persons injured was small.
There was considerable pillaging dur-
ing the night on the outskirts of. Odes-
sa. which the students who organised
themselves into a city guard tried to
prevent.
