CLAIM TO HAVE SOLVED OLD MURDER IIYSTERY Dr. Mam J. Condon, Cap tain in U. S. Army, Ac cused of the Crime New Brunswick, X. J., June 19.- County authorities this afternoon claimed to have cleared the baffling murder mystery of how John V. Piper met his death, in the arrest at Chatta nooga, Tenn., today of Dr. William J. Condon, a captain in the United States army medical corps. Condon, formerly a resident of New Brunswick, is socially prominent here and the news of the charge of murder against him created a sensation. Piper was a University of Vermont graduate and a student at Butgers College. He disappeared February 17. Saturday his body, half incinerated, but still recognized, was discovered near a road by a gang of workmen. Piper, who lived in a suburb, was working his way through eollege by tending furnaces and doing odd jobs for prominent New Brunswick families. Among the families for whom he worked was that of Dr. Condon. The physician was in active practice and was well esteemed here. Tho last home at which Piper was seen to cal! on the night of Fobruary 17 was Con don's. " . Claim to Have Evidence. When the body was discovered Sat! nrday physicians found a holo in the breast made by a bullet of the same calibre as that carried by a weapon found on the Spottswood-Englisli town road earlier in the day. The badly i decomposed remains had apparently been tossed from a wagon or an auto mobile .'n the bushes. Piper's disappearance had bade fair to become an unsolvable mystery up to the time tho body was found. Piper's wife always maintained that her husbsnd had been murdered, al though for a time his friends thought the young man's mind had become de ranged for over study and over work. Captain Condon is about 38 years of age. His home hie was entirely nap py. County officials refused today to explain the reasons why they believe he committed the crime or the theory of the motive for the murder. Captain Condon left New Brunswick last Thursday en route for Fort Oglo thorpe, Ga. Dispatches received to day said he was being hold by the military authorities at Chattanooga, pending arrival of a representative of the state of New Jersey. Prosecutor Strickler this afternoon asserted that the authorities were now in complete possession of the evidence showing how Pipr was killed, including how his body was disposed of and who drove the automobile from which the student's body was thrown. , ' Pacific Coast League Standinga.
