Trank Janrnrek, Mndlfcon. N. hld on suspicion in connection with the murder of little Jpanotte Lawr nee on Oct. 6, Is nllcgftd to hnvo nd nltted to Captain of Detectives Rtex of Newark that he saw the mother of the ohlld near hor homo on Hldge UU Avenue. Madison, nt about tho time tho little slrl Is known to have fcttn murdered. This Is considered Imporlant In view of the attempt of .Tnncnrek'n i old t Ives 1o establish an ullbl for him by say ing that ho was at home eatlnp supper t 6.10 P. M. on that day. Kor Mrs. Jjiwrcnce say thnt If ho saw hor In Kldgedalo Avenue It must have been between 6 and B.10. when she left tho house to look-up and down tho street to see if Janette was In sight. It lq id to be thirty minute' walk from the spot whero ho Is said to have seen Mrs. Lawrence and the place whero he is said to h'vb been eating at 6.10. Ca.pt. 13 rex said that Jancarek could have seen Mrs. Lawrence whero he ways ho did it ho had been standing beside tho lotr In Kluxfn Woods where the body of tho child was found. Brex J so said Jancarok had changed his ntory by admitting thut he did change hta clothes on reaching homo that eve ning. Tho suit of clothes ho wore that 4ay. Brex said, is being examined bac tericjoglcally for traces of human blood. The police were told that Frank Mc Orory of Newark, who saya Jancarek confessed to him that ho killed tho girl after attacking her because ho feared she had rocognlred him. worked at tho same greenhouse where Jancarek wiui employed and was discharged lost week. Ho Is alleged to hao blamed Jancarek. According to Cript. Brex. MoQrory made the following statement: "I was with Jancarek tho day of the murder and left him about noon. 1 met him again that night and no ticed his shirt, shoes and trousers were spotted with blood. It waa then he told me how he had assaulted and finally murdered a girl because, af ter assaulting her, he thought she Identified him." MoQrory is also detained nendlnr ins invesugauon or nu wnereabouts the day of tho murder. The detention of Jancarek probably will delay the Grand Jury Investiga tion of the charge against Francis Xluxen .3d. , RELYEA SUCCEEDS EBEY.
