Girl Murdered and Body Hidden.
Was Assaulted and Robbed After a Desperate
Struggle. Suspect Under Arrest.
New York, Sept. 18.—The body of
Augusta Pfeiffer, 22 years old, who had
been criminally assaulted, robbed and
strangled, was found in a clump of
bushes on the Pelham road in the
Bronx. Coroner O’Gorman issued a
warrant for the arrest of Joseph
Girard, a driver, charging him with
the murder. Coroner O'Gorman said:
“We have traced the movements of
Girard up to the time of the murder
and to within 200 feet of the place.
We have also traced the movements
of the girl up to 8.30 o’clock on Wed-
nesday night, when she boarded a
Throggs Neck car. The two undoubt-
edly met. The man’s clothing has been
found, and consist of overalls and
jumper. These are smeared with
blood.”
Miss Pfeiffer had been somewhat ex-
pensively dressed, but when the body
was found the dress was torn into
shreds. There was every indication
that she had made a most desperate
struggle before she was overcome.
After she succumbed rings were torn
off her fingers and the body was
from the spot where the
able distance and concealed in a tan-
gle of briars.
The body was found by Mrs. A. H.
Black. She had been vrsiums trromws
and passed along the road on her way
home. , As she neared the shed she
was attracted by the red ribbon on a
yellow straw hat lying on the grass.
She went over to the spot and was
horrified to find the young woman
lying there, with her clothing dishev-
eled and her features badly bruised.
Mrs. Black ran screaming along until
she met a bicycle policeman and told
him her story. He immediately notified
Captain Burfeind, and the machinery
of the police was set in motion.
One of the victim’s shoes was found
about 12 feet from the body, and the
white sole of the uncovered foot was,
soiled by mud, showing the body had
been dragged for some distance be-
fore being abandoned by the mur-'!
derers.
Miss Pfeiffer was well known and
respected in the neighborhood in
which she lived. She left her boarding
house about 8 o'clock on Wednesday
evening to meet her brother, and car-
ried a small dress suit case in which
she intended to put her clothing. This
case was found near her body. The
walk from the street car to her home
is a lonely one, and it was while on
this that she was assaulted, according
to the police theory. The autopsy
showed that she had been dead about
12 hours when her body was discov-
ered.
EMBEZZLED $20,000
Clerk In Marine Hospital Service Un-
der Arrest.
Washington, Sept. 19. — James W.
Boyd, a clerk in the public health and
marine hospital service, was arrested
on a warrant sworn out by Chief Clerk
W. P. Worcester, of that office, charg-
ing him with embezzlement. The dis-
covery of the facts leading to the
charge was made last Thursday dur-
ing Boyd’s absence, and the amount
abstracted will, according to Boyd's
confession, reach not less than $20,-
000.
It was Boyd’s duty to prepare bills '
for the approval of the surgeon gen-
eral, and when checks were signed
they were delivered to him to be
mailed to the persons for whom they
were intended. It is charged that he
manipulated the bills by erasing the
dates and amounts of duplicates left
in the office, and that he secured the
money on the checks by endorsing on
the checks the names of the firms to
which they were issued. The alleged
defalcation has been in progress for
the past three years, but Boyd was
not suspected until a recent illness
compelled him to be absent and made
it necessary for some one else to as-
sume his duties. When his desk was
opened a number of suspicious docu-
ments were found. This discovery led
to an investigation by Surgeon Gen-
eral] Wyman and Chief Clerk War-

Dr. Harper Again Operated On.
Chicago, Sept. 19.—President Har-
per, of the University of Chicago. has
undergone another operation, and ac-
cording to a statement issued by his
family, he is resting comfortably. The
operation, which was performed on
Sunday night, is said to have been but
a slight one to relieve intestinal reten-
tion, and although there is much ap-
prehension felt over his condition at
the university, members of his family
are confident he will rally quickly. The
statement of his physicians is that he
will be up and about his usual affairs
within a few days. This is the third

Jap Paymasters Embezzied $165,000.
Tokio, Sept. 18.—Information has
been made public that three naval pay-
masters have embezzled $165,000 of
government funds. The announcement
has been calmly received by the pub-
lie, but the knov'~ ize that the com-
mission of the cri... extended over the
period of a year without discovery
may, it is said, cause a feeling of dis-
trust and uneasiness toward the
naval administration and furnish a
weapon to the political parties that
are opposing the government.
