New Brunswick Murders

NEW EYEWITNESS ' FOUND

Nf iv Hninnwlck, N. J Dec. 7. The
trial of Raymond Schneider, who, with
Pearl Raluner, discovered the murdered
bedle.s of the Rev. Kdwnrd Wheeler
Hull and his choir leader. Mrs. Klentter
R. Mills, en the Phillips farm Inst
September, was commenced tednv en
charges of perjury growing out of his
ncciuatien of Clifferd Hayes us the
murderer of the couple.
The case was taken up at 11:4,"
o'clock this morning and a lury wita
selected In llftecn minutes. There arc
four women en the Jury.
Prosecutor Jehn K. Toelnn, who la
representing the Stntc, In outlining
the case te the Jury, said that en
October ,'l Schneider was questioned by
detcetUes working en the Hall-Mills
murder mystery nnd that he swore te
an affidavit In which he charged Clif Clif
eord Hayes with having murdered the
couple, mistaking them for Schneider's
sweethenrt, Peatl Uahmer, nnd her
father.
Antheny Silver, a notary public, wen
the first witness called bj the State. He
identified Schneider iih tlie man who
had appeared before him and sworn te
the affidavit.
A new and important eewltness te
the murder has been located by the
authorities, it is asserted iiere. It
has been known nil along that another
person besides Mrs. Jnne Gibsen, the
"Pig Weman," was at or near the scene
en tlie night of Septemher 14, en the
Phillips farm, nnd it had been suspected
the man was n vestryman of the Church
of Kt. Jehn the Hvangellst.
That vestryman has hecn ciearea or
suspicion In the minds of the million-
J"1?- The man who actually was nicrc.

New Rrtiuswhk.
Although he deniei having been nt
the farm upon the night of the Ilnll
Mllis murder, the girl there with hltn
has talked freely te the authorities, It la
said.
I Concerning the repot t that black
mailers may have been responsible for
the murder, the nutherltlfs de net take
that theory seriously. However, they
1 feel it their duty te Investigate every
I clue, and for that lensnn me rounding
up some of the underworld characters
nt New Rrunswlck and will question
them some time this week. Jenleusy
Is still the motive given most credence
by the investigators.

Probably no undertaking
requires a keener eye, a
mere delicate sense of
color, and a greater degree
of patience than the as
sembling of a finely

This rare talent, as part of
the equipment of this
