HALF-HEARTED SEARCH
FOR MURDERER CAUSE
OF DARBY CITIZENS' IRE
Residents Declai-e Delaware
County Authorities Are Mak
ing No Effort to Solve
Mystery
PETITION FORTHCOMING
There wns gclieial liidlgtiatlon In Unthy
today. Itcsldentn decimal that the He!
aware County ntltholltlcs ei6 makinsr
no effort lei folvo tho mystery suriound
IliB tho jnurder of Mnry DnVK the
nnmnti who lost her life In trylnB to
snvp tlu valuables of William Colllns
Btove, her emplojer.
Mnny ilcplnieil that the Indlffcfcnce In
rcBard to InvcstiKntlon of the case wns
due to the attitude of Plstrlct Attorncv
John II. Itnnnum, Jr., who enmo to
I'arhy, It Is snld, pionotinced tho ense
suicide and returned to Medln. As llnti
tuim lopiesenlfl the powerful political In
terests which tlnminnto the community,
the decision of suicide wns tnken tip, and
attempt was made by the county de
tectives to end tho Investigation several
days ago.
Ah such n conclusion could not be
reached by the wildest deduction, resi
dents snv, tho people demnndod thnt the
police continue the Investigation on their
own net mint, rewntdless nf the nttltudc
nt the Delaware County detectives.
In the hope thnt the mystery enn ho
solved steps ate beliiB tnken today to
circulate a petition calling upon tho
county authorities to conduct a rigid In
vestigation. This petition will be sent to
Dlstilct Attorney Ilnnnum. The Homcn
of the community contend thnt the Imllf
feience of the authoiltles In u-Bnrd to an
InvestlBntlon will make Onrhy an at
tractive plnce for thieves und murderers 1
who will feel scenic on account of pres
ent conditions.
It Is generally agreed that Chief of
Polko Clark and his small lotce of police
men nte doliiK all In their power to solve
tho m.vstciy. It is known, however, thnt
there Is consldcinhle filctlon between the
police of the small settlements of Dela
ware County nnd the county nutnoritlcs.
The detectives ale eager for gloiy,
many sa., und will not co-opornte unless
they nip sine of getlltiB their full slinrc.
It was learned toilay that tho muider
cd housekeeper owned two holmes und
left the care of these properties to a
woman filcnd In Delaware County. This
womun was questioned but could throw
no light on the mystery.
Coroner Drcwes and business men liv
ing In unihy proper aic doing detective
work on their own account. At a. meet
ing of the I) ii by Council next week n de
mand will ho innde that a detective be
employed for the community who will ho
fieo from the domination of the political
iIub which UlctutPH tho rules for the
section.
