MNSTERY
Here are the most important
new developments in th. Nelms
death note and disappearance
mystery:
From many sources it is learned
that Mrs. Eloise Dennis for months
had planned a trip to India.
Conviction .is strengthened that
Beatrice is slain as death note
says and that Eloise is on the
high seas.
Telegram is discovered in which
Eloise implored the instant aid
of the mysterious “Margaret’
Mims.”
Mystery of “L. and B.” tele
gram June 26 from New Orieans
deepens on discovery that Eloise
or person signing her name was
not in New Orleans June 26, but
had bought San Francisco ticket
June 22 and had reached El Paso
June 25,
Investigators reach conclusion
that every move on the strange
trip was carefully planned with
the idea of befogging and mis
leading pursuers.
John L. Bennett, chauffeur and
supposed signer of application for
money orders to Victor Innes, is
eliminated from the case on testi
mony of a man who witnessed
Eloise sign Bennett's name.
A Louisiana murder which may
have bearing on the Nelms mys
tery is revealed on the finding of
a human hand near Plagquemine,
90 miles up the river from New
Orleans.
A postal card from San Anto
nio to the Aetna Life Insurance
Company in Atlanta, where Beat
rice held policies, furnishes a clew
on which detectives work.
Conviction tha‘t Eloise Nelms Den
nis is on the high seas sailing to
ward India or some other distant
country, while her sister Beatrice is
lving dead, possibly slain In the man
ner described in the mysterious death
pote mailed from San Franeisco, set
tled Saturday upon those who were
continuing a futile search for a sin
gle definite clew to the whereabouts
of the missing Nelms sisters.
Fresh revelations of her intention
gs long ago as 1912 to flee with Vic
tor Innes, the Carson City lawyer,
end make her home with him in In
dia, together with every circum
stance of her flight from Atlanta,
served to strengthen this belief.
The baffling personages of Innes
and his companion, “Margaret Mims"”
or “Mary Hardman,” as she was va
riously known, thrust themselves
into almost every incident that has
eny bearing on the actions of Eloise
and her disappearance. For the first
time a telegram was ghown Saturday
that bore a frantic message from Elo
ise to the so-called “aunt.”
Demanded Help of Woman.
Eioise demanded the aid of the
mysterious woman, and insisted that
she come at once from Birmingham,
whence she had gone a few days be
fore, and help her.
A prominent man, who was a close
personal and business acquaintance
of Eloise, informed The Georgian
Saturday that the love-mad woman
had confided to him her plans and
rer fears. She was going to meet
her “aunt” in a few weeks in New
Orleans, sne sald, and from there was
going West to embark for India. In-

Detective Orders Court Action
Following Attack on Him for
His Work in Mystery,
NEW YORK, July 18.—Detective
Willlam J. Burns announced to-day
that he had instructed his lawyer to
sue Dr. Edwin Carman and Attorney
George M. Levy, counsel for Mrs.
Florence Carman, for $50,000 each for
defamation of character.
This action is an aftermath of at
tacks made on the detective for the
course he has followed in investigat
ing the murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey
in the office of Dr. Carman at Free
port. It was carged that the detec
tive had “framed up” on Mrs, Car
man.
Referring to the attack made upon
Lim by Mrs. Carman after she was
released from jall, in which the ac
cused woman declared she was being
“framed up” by detectives, Burns
sald:
“It i to be expected that an at
tack of that kind would be made upon
me. People who are guilty always
come across with a knock.
No Mystery, He Says.
“There is no mystery in the mur
der of Mrs. Bailey. The footprints
are absolutely perfect. There is no
doubt that Mrs. Carman flred that
shot. The ridiculous display Dr. Car
man and his wife made of themselves
on the night of the murder proves to
be the strongest kind of circumstan
tial evidence. Why didn't they im
mediately send for the authorities?” |
In a voice broken by sobs and that
grew tense and passionate at times,
Mrs. Jennie Duryea, mother of Mrs. |
Louise Bailey, to-day bitterly de
nounced the Nassau County Grand
Jury because it has returned only a
manslaughter indictment agalinst Mrs.i
Carman. |
Mrs. Duryea charged that Mrs, Car-.
man concealed the truth, and she
declared:
“I would have been the first to for
give Florence Carman if she had
frankly confessed the guilt which I
believe is in her heart. |
Points to Motive. |
“Never was there a murder where
the motive was stronger,” declared
the grieving mother. “Never was
there a murder where every circum
stance pointed more clearly toward
one person. 1 firmly believe she
killed my daughter Louise. ».
“I can not see where there is any‘
law that would let her go free. lj
don’t think that Mrs. Carman meant
to kill my innocent daughter. I be- |
lieve that she wanted to kill her hus
band because she thought him faith
less. If she had come out and said, Y
shot to kill this husband, whom I have
known to be faithless for years,' the
world would have accepted her as a;
wronged woman, and I would have
been one of the first to forgive her. |
But, in place of that, they have be- |
smirched my innocent daughter; they
rave blackened her good name; they
have broken my heart. 1 will not
rest until I have cleared my daugh- |
ter's good name.” |
To Go Into Hiding. |
Freed on $20,000 bail after arralgn
ment on a charge of killing Mrs. Bai
ley, Mrs. Carman is now making |
preparations for a trip to New Jersey,
where she will remain in hiding until
her trial is called in October.
Mrs. Carman declares that when
everything is over she will return to
her home in Freeport and be hapm»j
Before she is brought to trial, she
says, she will do everything she can
to find the criminal in whose place
she stands accused.

MONTEREY, MEXICO, July
18.—General Carranza prepared
for the occupation of Mexico ?lty
to-day by ordering 7,000 soldiers
to move at once to t‘\o capital.
By LAURENCE TOD.
WASHINGTON, July 18.—No
pledge of any kind will be given
either by the Constitutionalists to the
United States or the Mexican Fed
erals who remain under arms until
the forces of .the revolution shall be
in full control of Mexico City. No
promise of the sparing of life or prop
erty will be made. No terms of any
kind will be offéred as a reward for
surrender.
This was the ultimatum announced
to thé world to-day by the spnkesma.n‘
of the Carranza Government here. ltj
was given In answer to the reports
that the State Department had at-!
tempted to secure from Carranza
guarantees of amnesty and of con
cessions to the more powerful groups
which have opposed the revolution.
Would Make Plots Quickly.
Rafael Zubaran Capmany, head of
the junta, and Luls Cabrera, one of
the civil leaders of the revolution,
pointed out that the best means of
pacifying Mexico would be the occu
pation to the capital before the ene
my should be granted any encourage
ment. Should they be left secure mi
life and lands while still able to fight,|
they would quickly begin to plot the |
overthrow of the new regime.
This declaration was made with the
added comment that since the new
Government sought the recognition of
foreign nations it could be counted on
to commit no excesses of punishment,
nor confiscate property where con
fiscatlon was not required by the pub
lic welfare. ‘
Friars To Be Evicted. ‘
For the sake of public safety, a
general eviction of the friars now in
Mexico in violation of the law of 1872
is to be carried out. At the same Umel
the landed estates of the church de
clared by the law of 1856 to be the
property of the nation are to be con
verted to the uses of the people. Pub
lic worship and the use of church
buildiings for that purpose wlll be left
undisturbed |
At a dinner given by Senor Zu
baran to the jress in celebration of
the flight of Huerta, the Constitution- |
alist predicted complete reorganiza- |
tion of the country on a basis of lan.}‘
reform within a year. 1
Upon the subject of the debts con-‘
tracted by Huerta, the Constitution
alists were reticent to-day. They ad
mitted only that the demand of Eu
ropean powers that these debts be
paid would be carefully considered.
Wilson in Muddle,
This phase of the Mexican situa
tion furnished an additional cause for
worry for the Washington Adminis- |
tration, although it is bellieved Car
ranza will recognize the justice of
these claims. Strong representations
are being made by the War Depart
ment to Carranza to this end.
This situation places the Govern

both toward the Federals and the
Constitutionalists, as President Wii
son, through his representative in
Mexico Jonn Lind. several months
ago prevaiied upon Carranza to is
