The wrecked car burst Inte flames.

by the local authorities te be only n
ninttcn of hours.
One or the ether is expected te hreal hreal
detvn and tell the whole story fellow
lug Kastlake's accusation against the
nurse en the train while the prisoners
were being brought here.
The real underl.ting reason for trans
ferring the accused pair te this city was
te separate them se that the detectives
could have u better opportunity te quiz
them. The pri-en In which they were
confined in Fredericksburg wns se small
thnt it was necessary te put the man
and the woman In ndjeltiing cells, nnd
anything said by either could be plainly
heard hv the ether.
Rapid developments followed Imme

William A. Teler te the ensr.. Assisted
by .Sergeant 12. II. Orgnn. of the Rich
mond police, Teler seen uncovered cer
tain pieces of important evidence, de

kitchen of the little bungalow where
Mrs. Knstlake wns hacked te death.

Knstlnke nnd Mls Knox nre new m

Detective Teler nnd Sergeant Orgnn

Sergeant Organ said this irning that
he believed one or the etln r ueuld tell

"We will use the same methods that
