brutal 'murder of little ll-ycar-olil
Muilc Kmlili. whoso . mutilated body
was round on the siiore of Deal I.nUe
vesterdav, may ultimately cause two
deaths. Mrs. Peter ' Smith, tile Kil l s
mother Is on the verge of. Insanity
and auendlng nlivsiciaiis ileiland to
day that fclie may nut survive the
shock.
n armed guard protected all nliiht
the lock-up uhere Ihunias VViIIimmis,
colored, und another.. . negro mimed
Wynn. with whom Williams lived, lire
under arrest. Hie guard was lessened
today, but effective precautions are
being taken to prevent any outbreak.
The crime is the most brutal in the
historv of. New Jersey. The little girl
had been mistreated and nad been
strangled with her ban- ribbon. Her
clothing was nearly torn Doni her
bodv. Her tinv lists were clinched
above her head as though hhe had
thrown up her hands to protect heir
Kclf. There was a long, deep gash in
tho skull.
Tho chief of police hopes to get evi
dence against Williams today to
charge hfm with the crime. The, ne
gro, a big. bulking fellow, known as
Black Diamond. is somewhat fa
mous locally as a prize tighter.'
He was employed at the home; of
Mrs. Delia Jackson, an aunt of the lit
tle girl, and last Wednesday, when
Marie disappeared, lie was chopping
down trees upon Mrs. Jackson h es
tate. The police believe that the gusli
on the girl s head was inaile Dy u-
liains axe.
Both prisoners were put through the
third degree today in the hope ot
wringing a confession from Ibeni.
Williams was stolid and stubborn, but
Wynn said that he knew nothing
about the crime until the llndlng of
the bodv yesterday and told a toler
ably straight story, although the
lynch 'threats which had been mu.de
against the pah- hud frightened him
until he was scarcely able to aik.
The assailant of the girl -had: tried
to remove the traces of his crime by
setting the woods on fire. Thfi body
was covered bv leaves and brush, but
had not burned.
A stained towel and silk handker
chief were found in Wynn's cabin, by
the police. These were microscopic
ally examined today by medical au
thorities. Coroner Robert W. Purdy
had a phynlclan examine the romalho

Looked For
Itatlicr Than Let the Irish Party
Dominate the .Situation Parliament
Will be Adioiiriied.
( lii ( able lo l ln.v limes. )
I.imilon. .Nov. I 1- Rather lunu let
the Iri.sli parlv (luminal u in Uie pres
ent political crisis, parliament will lie
ad inu rued ' tomorrow with an order
for a general: election. This an
nouncement was Hindu today bv a
leading member, ot tne 'liberal party.
The general election will bring
about a bin shift in tne political par
lies of Krigiaiul. I lie cliief develop
ment .will undoubtedly be tho retire
ment of the cx-premler lialtour ol I he
unionist party.
J 'nere was great, political activity
in all parlies today. I lie Irish lend
ers claimed the balance ot power in
the house ol commons and the con
trol ol the .constitutional situation.
A care r ui canvass apparently substan
tiated their claims.
The constii utioiiiil amendments
abrogating a portion of tho power ot
the house ol peers must be .threshed
out again. Bo great has the situation
become that a fight will be made to
abolisii tne upper house altogether.
T- P- O'Connor, one of the Irish
leaders, in discussant the situation
to.lav. said that it was now or never
for the nationalists to stand together.
"I deprnate the attitude of the
O'Brienites who seem bent on split
ting the party when it is now at its
sirongest. said he. Never in tne
History of bns;lish and Irish, politics
iias Ireland hud an opportunity like
the present.' The Irish party has suf
ficient, strength to control the situa
tion. . I Bin going into parliament to
morrow witht.lu! single aim ot doing
everything m ni.v power to gain free
dom for Ireland, at least.. I will se
cure the best terms possible. It the
session ends abruptly it will nave to
be 'another parliament, which shall
listen to inv plea.'
John huilniond had similar views
and his contention was that tno strug
gle for Irish home rule has now aN
tallied tho point: where only a short
but active fight is necessary. .
