NEW YOKK, Juno il. After a lilt
of police flurry today, an hour or two
of unverified reports anil telephoning,
btwee cities, the murder of Elsie
Sigel, daughter of Paul Slgel. of this
city, and the grand-daughter of Ma
jor ueneral Franx Sigel, of Civil war
fame, resolvea lself Into an unsolved

Chung Sin, who formerly occupied
a room adjoining that where the girl s
body waa found, la held hy the police
at tiie little up-flrtate city of Amster
dam, but what has been learned from
him has served to clear the case lit
tle If any.
Girl's Ilody Buried.
The body of Klsle Slgel was nulet
ly buried til in afternoon in Woodlawn
cemetery. As the father announced
last night that he wished to avoid
any more publicity, the coffin contain
ing the mutilated form was taken di
rectly from the morgue to the bury
ing ground In a plain undertaking
wagon. The ceremony at the grave
was strictly private and waa attead
nl only by her father, two brothers,
Reginald and Theodore, and by her
uncle, Franz Blgel.
Theories of Murder.
Theories as to the motive for the
murder all coincide -on the Jealousy
of lon l,lng. That he killed the
girl because of her apparent friend
ship for rhu Gain, who is still de
tained as a material witness, is still

In support of trite explanation, Mrs.
Florence Todd, one of the most prom

who knew Elsie Higel nnd her moth

"I knew Chu (lain, who is under
arrest, very well. He Is one of tho!
few Chinamen whom I would trust
with my life. Mrs. Sigel anil Klsle I

dent Tafit will personally supervise
putting the finishing touches upon
tiie proposed amendment to the turlff

Slate Knox anil the republican mem
bership of the senate finance com
mittee.
It Is expected the perfected amend
ment will be ready for introduction in
the Henate on Thursday. The attorn
ey -general and Mr. Knot had a long
session at the capital today and
leached an agreement on practically
every feature of the corporation tax
plan. The portion which Is giving
them the greatest trouble relates to
the government control of corpora
tions necessary to carry the law Into
successful operation. There has been
cu 111 tie opposition to subjecting the
corporations to the amount of public
ity that will be required for the en
forcement of the law and to prevent
manipulations of stocks and bonds for
the purjMises of evasion.
Must nave Publicity.
Members of the finance committee
as well as Mr. Hoot and Mr. Wlcker
sbnm agree with the president that
such publicity must be given and that
without It th- corporations tax law
would be a failure.
Among the details of the hill de

will be at the rate of two per cent
and that It will be collected from all
corporations. All banks will come
within tiie range of the tax. hut de

banks to the nmoiint of taxes paid
