In the opinion of Jtule Murphy, I'.ur ilick had no woman guest in his "den" on the ulubt of the murder, and the. crime was not the work of a burglar. He exculpates Mrs. Gertrude P.. Paine and Miss Hutchiusou from any connec tion with the crime and in conclusion criticises Mrs. Maria A.

"The Iturdick in;ui'st bas taught us one thing," said Judge Murphy, "and that is to hold such investigations promptly. The poHco outlet inUcst is the most natural machinery under the law for Investigating such matters. Under it persons under suspicion can lie brought before a magistrate and compelled to tell what they know, while there is no chance for sentimen tal persons to shout against u 'third de gree.'
