Hand Thrust Through Window
and Bullet Fired Which
Caused Death
By Associated Press
Freeport, X. 1., July I.—The police
and county authorities are seeking a
motive for the murder last night of
Mrs. William Bailey, wife of William
Bailey, of Hempstead, in the office of
Dr. Edward Carman. William Bailey,
husband o l'the dead woman, is a hat
manufacturer in Brooklyn. He was
surprised to leariv that his wife had
been a patient of Dr. Carman, and
declared that so far as he knew she
had no enemies. Dr. Carman, too,
told the authorities that he knew of
no cause for the crime, or reason to
believe the shot was intended for him.
Mrs. Hailey was shot through the
heart and died instantly. According
to Dr. Carman she arrived at his of
fice, which Is In his home, at 7.3 0
o'clock. An hour later, he said, she
was preparing to leave when a window
pane was broken, a man's hand hold
ing a revolver thrust in and the shot
fired that ended her life.
Chief of Police Roland M. Damb
began an Investigation with County
Detective Phieas Seaman. They found
that the window through which Dr.
Carman said the shot had been fired
was covered by a wire screen which
was operated by binges from above
and could be opened front the inside.
Further investigation showed that the
glass broken from the window and the
putty holding the glass had fallen
both inside and outside the room.
The mystery was further increased
when Bailey, the husband of the mur
dered woman, told the police that he
did not know that his wife had gone
to the doctor's office, lie was sur
prised when told that Mrs. Bailey was
accustomed to call on the doctor ac
casionally for treatment.
Visited sick Woman
Refore going to the doctor's office
Mrs. Bailey had visited Mrs. John C.
Crabau, who is ill at her home In
Rockville Center, and on leaving her
at fi o'clock had announced that she
was going directly home.
Outside of the tragic features of the
murder, the crime caused the most In
tense excitement here on account of
the social prominence and the wealth
of Dr. Carman and his family. Mrs.
Carman is the daughter of Frank
Clapp Conklin. one of the wealthiest
residents of the south shore of Bong
Island. Mr. Conklin make his home
with his ('aughter. Mrs. Hailey, who
was 3<l yeai. old, was small with a re
markably prett., figure and was con
sidered exceptionally handsome. She
always had been a leader In the social
affairs of her neighborhood. She
leaves two children, a daughter, Ada
lade, 17 years, find a son, 12 years old.
First Visit, lie Says
IT. Carman said to-day that Mrs.
Bailey's visit to his office last night
was her first and that he had not been
acquainted with her before that time.
Two men patients who were waiting
in the physician's outer office when
Mrs. Bailey was shot said they heard
no noise until they were startled by
the report of a pistol. When they en
tered the consultation room Mrs.
Bailey was dead and they helped Dr.
Carman carry her to a couch.
So many persons had trampled the
grass outside the window of the doc
toi s office that bloodhounds brought
to the scene to-day proved useless
They became confused in the maze of
trails.
Archduke and Duchess
Had No Chance to Get
Out of Bosnia Alive
Vienna, July 1. The conspiracy
against the lives of Archduke Francis
l'erdinand and the Duchess of Ilohen
berg was so well planned that It would
have been Impossible for them to es
cape from Bosnia alive, according to
some members of the late archduke's
suite who returned here to-day.
The officials declare that two clock
work bombs were found beneath the
tahle on which luncheon was! awaiting
the archdukal party on their return
to the City Hall. A similar infernal
machine also was discovered in the
chimney of the room occupied by the
Duchess of Hohenberg at Ilije, a wa
tering place a few miles from Sara
jevp, and a woman was caught with
seven bombs in her possession.
The bullet which killed the arch
duke was an explosive one.
it has been ascertained by the au
thorities that Gavrlo Prlnzlp, the as

New Vork, July I.—Dr. Holbrook

"I'll be able to make some speeches,

He agreed that the six weeks' sen

another physician.
"Maybe the doctor will let you be a

"They won't have to let me," ans

BUSINESS INSURANCE
In a letter to a New York newspaper the manager
of a talking machine company wrote:
"We advertise as a sort of business in
surance, in winter and summer, in good
times and bad, and our policy has made our
product famous the world over."
This advertiser uses the newspapers very largely
and has secured splendid co-operation from local dis
tributors.
Business is so good, that his factory, even in the
dullest season, is far behind in its orders.
Business insurance through newspaper advertising
has made dull times something unknown to this concern.
