Man’s Hant Thrust Through
Window Pine and Prominent
Woman j3lpt Through Heart.
• reeport, N. /.—Police and county au
thorities today are seeking a motive for
the rnurtier Ust night of Mrs. William
Bailey, in the Office of Dr. KdwaVd Car
man. Whliap Bailey, husband of the
dead woman, is a hat manufacturer in
Brooklyn. If was surprised to learn
that his wife had been a patient ot Dr.
Carmen and. declared that so far as he
knew she lud no enemies. Dr. Carman
told authorities lie knew of no cause
for the crinte. , .. ,
MVs BailtA- was shot through the heart
and died instantly. According to Dr.
Carman she arrived at his office, whicn
is in his home, at 7:30. An hour later,
he said, she was preparing to leave when
a window pane was broken, a man s
hand holding a revolver thrust in and
the shot fired that ended her life. Au
thorises found that the window was
covered by a wire screen wh ch could
only be opened from the inside and tha’
the glass had fa’len both inside anci
oulide the room. The crime caused in
terse excitement here on account of the
sod a l prominence and the wealth of Dr.
Carman and his family. Mrs. Carman
is the daughter o; Frank Clapp ConKlin,
one of the wealthiest residents of the
south slioer of Bung Island. Mrs. Bailey
vas 36 years old.

Powder Burns.
In the physician's room four feet
from the window detectives found an
Instrument case bearing powder
burns and 4. furrow that might have
been plow<S by the bullet as it sped
toward Mrs. Bailey. The instrument
ease is so low that had the shot been
tired inside the room the person who
held the pistol must have squatted on
tlm floor.
The detectives learned today tnat
a few minutes after the shot was fired
a young woman hurried into the Free
port railroad station, aparently in
great agitation and toolc the first
train for New York. She was de
sciibed well dressed and auburn
haired.
Although Dr. Carman insisted to
dav that he had not met Mrs. Bailey
until she called at his office last night
for professional service the detectives
began their work with a jealous wo
man in the background of their theo
ries regarding the identity of the
criminal.

110 Feet of Broad Street
Property Has Changed Hands
Mrs. Geo. Howard Purchases Property on North Side of 1200
Block From Mrs. Mary A. Mulherin—Terms of Sale Private
But Over $20,000 Was Paid.
One hundred and ten feet of prop
erty on the 1200 block of Broad street
changed hands today. Mrs. Oeo. M.
Howard purchased from Mrs. Mary A.
Mulherin property on the north side
of the street extending back to Jones.
The consideration was private but it
is understood that the price paid was

stood that the Broad street portion of
the property will be improved and
probably brick stores with apartments
above will lie erected.
There has been much trading in Au

Speaker
Washington.—-After flays of parli
atuentary wrangling both houses of
congress today agreed to appropriate
for automobiles for Vice President
Marshall and Speaker Clark. Kach
will have a car costing $4,500.
Republican Leader Mann led the
fight for the appropriation for the
speaker.
“I think.” he said, “we ought to give
him a slight recognition of his great
abilities as speaker, remembering that
but for a chance he would now have
been president enjoyingg the privileges
of many automobiles. I do not wish
to draw comparisons between the
speaker and the president, but if

ticularly Broad street property. The
12000 block seems to be the most pop
ular however, of all of the blocks of
Broad for trading purposes just now as
investors believe that any property on
that block is cheap at present prices.
Indeed, It may be said that Augusta
property everywhere is cheap at pres
ent prices.
The sale of the Mulherin property to
Mrs. Howard was iftade by Alexunder-
Goodwin-Duvall Company which firm
recently was formed by the consolida
tion of Alexander & .Steiner and Good
win & Duvall.
Champ Clark had been nominated
and elected president, all would have
been proud of him in that position."
The house cheered Mr. Mann"s trib
ute to the speaker and passed ttie ap
propriation, already approved by the
senate.
