Baltimore. Mil., Auf?. 29. A new rtiaiv ,
acter. name not given, was Introduced
Into the Atlantic City board walk mys
tery tonight when detectives suddenly
eliminated William S. O. Williams from
the case and took to an entirely new
track, that of a wealthy Baltimore so-..
ciety maii.
Whether the latest clew In the mys
tery may lead to a relative of Mrs. W.
8. ti. Williams. the companion ot
('liarles O. Roberts when he was shot
vvi-.llo riding In a wheel chair last
Wednesday night, the police absolutely
decline to affirm.
The latest turn of affairs came after
a statement to detectives this afternoon
bv W. S. O. Williams. In this statement
Williams declared that he was not away
! from his country homo at Long Green,
lialtiniore county tmni noon or. Wednes
day until Fridav morning'.
The shooting of Hoberts took place on
the hoard walk at Atlantic City after 9
o'clock Wednesday evening. Williams
was corroborated In his story by Vlrgfil
Mitchell, bis butler, and other servants
of Long (Jreen. All told straightforward
stories and removed the last vestige of
doubt as to Williams' whereabouts on
the night of the tragedy.
When niiestioned about a letter which
he mailed to his wife at Atlantic City.
Wednesday. Williams declined to talk,
declaring that it was purely a prlvata
matter, concerning no one but his wlf$
and himself. Though his interview with,
th- detectives amounted to a "'sweat- .
us." Williams answered all questions
