So far the only clue the po- lice have is that the murderer had a llgnt gray overcoat. 'i‘wo girls who said they were Mabel Cousins, of Lynd- hurst, N. .l., and Helen Sullivan, of this city, and the motormaa and con- ductor of the car, have been detained as witnesses. Queenie and the two other girls. ac- companied by two young men, one of whom was the manic the gray over- coat, boarded the car at Brooklyn Bridge. All appeared to be in a merry mood, and laughed and chatted in a boisterous way as the car moved slow ly uptown. At first the men had been sitting across the aisle from the girls, but ur ter a time the man in the black over. coat crossed over and sat between Queenie and the Cousins girl. At the same time the man in the gray over- coat asked Queenie to come over and sit by him. She refused and he resch- ed over and tried to pull her out of her seat. While they were struggling the Cousins girl stealthily reached f-uf' his watch fob and had the watch out of the pocket when the man in gray saw her. A moment later, however, when he reached across the aisle once more the man In the black overcoat succeeded in getting the other man‘s watch and fob and pin from his tie. He took these, laughed When the oth- or men did not netice it. and passed them to the Cousins girls. They were found In her pocket, together with four pawntlckets, when she was searched at the police station. She declared that she had intended returning them, but that the shooting came before she had a chance to do so. Just what learned. Those who were on the car say that the first intimation they had of trouble was when they heard a shot and saw the man In the gray coat standing with a revolver partly con- cealed by a handkerchief held In his hand. Queenie had half risen from her seat with her hand pressed to her breast and as the man with the re- volver dashed from the car she top- pled over to the floor dead. The male companion of the man in the gray overcoat also escaped. The Cousins and Sullivan girls do- clare they did not know either of the men and also that they knew very ht- tle about the dead girl. They met Queenie in a resort in West Twenty- sixth‘street last night, they said, and with her want to Chinatown. where the night was passed in having a good time. During the early morning, they say. Queenie had become acquainted with the two men and they all started uptown together. CHURCH CALENDARS. South Norwsilt Congregational.

We are exceedingly blessed In natural re sources. Our manufacturing and com- mercial interests are very large in proportion to our population. They are carried on by men of exceptional strength and character, to whom is due our unusual commercial and iu~ dustrIaI prosperity. I doubt If there is another city in the country that has so fine and strong a body of wage- earners. it is because of these very things that we are fast outgrowing our muni clpal and civic equipment. Great forces are developing In our midst without adequate organization to give them the proper moulding influence. Our civic institutions must soon take concreter form if we are to make the ‘most of ourselves as a city. We have the material. but it will need to be fashioned and ordered. We have here all the constituent elements of a great metropolis and we cannot much longer live under the simple constitution which has suf- ficed in the past. Thus we have before us the immed- late task of forming these public In- stitutions. erecting public buildings and beautifying our city by preserv- ing its natural beauties. All this will be necessary if we are to enjoy a progress proportionate to our opportunity. It seems to me that such a series of lectures is likely to inspire us to more Immediate effort. to develop pub- lic spirit and civic pride. and to in- struct and guide us in the building up of a strong municapillty. which Is to be prosperous both commercially and morally. I earnestly hope that our people will give Prof. Zeubliu a large hearing. Very truly yours. CHARLES S. MACPARLAND.
