A Probable Murder
London Nov. 13.
The body of a well dressed woman was taken out of the Thames this morning.
There were marks on the body which gave rise to a suspicion that the woman
had been murdered, but it is possible she committed suicide, and that the
marks were received by contact with objects in the water. The police
searched the wards of the various police stations, in the hope of getting
a clue to the murderer, but were unsuccessful. The arrested one man who
had a bowie knife in his possession, but there was no reason to believe
that he was instrumental in the woman's death. He will probably be
discharged.
