Instead of clearing up the assassina

serves to ' further complicate matters.
The news of Leu's end. although occa

convincing and complete was proved by
the suspect that the detectives were
perforce compelled to admit that it
would have been a physical impossibility
for Leu to have been anywhere near
the scene of the crime on the fatal
night. Baffled by this development In
a case, which at first Bight appeared to
ne exceptionally easy of solution, the
detectives had to formulate new theo

slightest clue, tending to throw any
light on the crime.
Leu dropped from sight a day after
Huber was found lying dead on one
Cornell road with two bullet, holes in
his body. The disappearance was
shrouded In mystery as deep as that
surrounding the murder of Huber and
despite a careful investigation no trace
of Leu was found until his unrecognis
