The Wolverhampton police are investigating the story that two men stopped at a public house near the scene of the murder at six o'clock on Tuesday morning, made a brief stay, ordered drinks, and left them unconsumed.
SOME ASSUMPTIONS.
London, January 24
Fifty soft-nose and fifty solid-cart-ridges were purchased at Liverpool on Monday'by two men, one answering the description of Reeks' mysterious friend. The other was possibly Reeks. The statement that Reeks travelled by an assumed name is erroneous. He was known by his fellow passengers as Reeks, and his luggage was properly labelled.
The Daily Mail states that a woman's hatpin has been found near Reeks, and probably a woman was concerned in the case.
