TRACING THE MURDERERS.
BLOODHOUNDS SUGGESTED
(By Cable—Piew Association—Copyright.) LONDON, January 23. Tile newspapers continue to give prominence to the Reeks mystery. The Staffordshire police stato that Recks travelled from Canada under an assumed name. His shoes wero so scratched that they suggested that the \ body -was dragged to tho pit by the overcoat. The police, coming to the conclusion that the crime was not the work of a single person, suggest that bloodhounds should bo used to trace the murderers. Cartridge cases found near the body were of an old pattern, being filed to fit a modern weapon. Experts say the cartridges were made abroad. The police aro searching for Rceks's companion, T. H. Ramsden, of Chicago. They appeared to be close friends, and Ramsden apparently went to Leeds on Monday, Reeks bidding him farewell at the station.
