Morrison Found Slain in Bed At Oshawa (Oshawa Daily Times) Neighbors Di Kingsdale Avenue Woman in Bed, Brutally Murdered by Hatchet, on Tuesday Afternoon. The awful fate which had befallen Mrs. Morrison, a young woman of prep i Pp and neat- all right. The boy searched through the downstairs rooms, and came out to say there was no sign of his moth- er. Mr. Harmer asked him to go up- stairs, and he did so. He had just reached the bedroom upstairs when he gave a piercing scream. Mrs. Har- mer ran upstairs, and there, lay Mrs, Morrison, her head in a mass of blood which covered the pillows and tha bed. 'Mr. Harmer also went upstairs, and after one look at the unfortuniite woman, who was still breathing and moving slightly, he called the police. Constable Harvey rushed to the house, and took charge until Detect- ives McGee and Quantrail arrived. The woman was still breathing when Constable Harvey entered the room, but when Dr. J. A. Brown arrived, the last feeble flicker of life had expired, and she lay dead, victim of a cruel murder. Killed in Sleep. Mrs. Morrison had evidenly been beaten to death, as she lay asleep in bed. She was partly clothed in her underwear, while her shoes and stock- ings lay on the floor near the bed. The deed, it was believed by the de- tectives, was committed with a short- handled, heavy-headed hatchet found on the floor of the cellar of the house. It showed traces of bloodstains and a few hairs were adhereing to it. Alongside the hatchet lay a pair of socks, rolled inside each other, and covered wtih bloodstains, these having apparently been used by the murderer to clean the blood from the head of the hatchet. Reconstruct Crime Police were trying to reconstruct what took place in the Morrison home this morning. None of the neighbors had seen Mr. Morrison since last night but the two little boys, Donald and Billy, told Mr. and Mrs. Harmer that their father had gotten their break- fast ready this morning, and had sent them off to school. The crime must have been committed soon after the lads had gone to the school, for ness, was learned about one o'clock on Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Morri- son's two children, Donald, aged eight, and William, aged seven, came home from school shortly after twelve, and were unable to get into the house. They remained outdoors until Mrs. William Harmer, who lives next door, and who had been making unsuccess- ful efforts to arouse anyone in the Morrison home during the forenoon, took pity on them, and took the two { boys into her home for dinner. After dinner, thinking it strange that there should be no response to the knocks on the door of the Morrison home, Mr. and Mrs. Harmer secured a key drom, Enos' M. Taylor, who lives on Not wishing to enter the house, Mra. Mary | they 'sent the oldest boy Donald, in- Mrs. Harmer informed The Times that she had gone to the back door of the Morrison home shortly after nine o'clock and could get no response. She had done the same thing later in the forenoon, with the same futile result, and she was beginning to be seriously worried when her husband rooms looked well-furnished and de- corated. Dr. Rundle, coroner, has taken charge of the case for the Crown, and was making arrangements this after- noon, for the holding of an inquest. emai 'PHONING FROM MOVING TRAIN ia M8. SUCCESSFULLY hg INAUGURATED. Canada took a commanding lead in the scientific race when two-way tele- phone conversation between a moving train and cities on the North Ameri- can continent and Great Britain was successfully accomplished this week. The train was the Canadian National Railways "International Limited," which also inaugurated a new sched- ule by making the journey from To- ronto to Montreal, 334 miles in 360 minutes. This schedule is the fastest in the world for a train of the same size and weight, and calls for a speed of close to 70 miles an hour at times. There was only one hitch in the demonstration. It had been intended that Sir Henry Thornton should talk to Rt. Hon. Jas, Ramsay MacDonald at Chequers, the country home of the British prime ministers. For some reason as yet unexplained, communication between train and England after Sir Henry had held a brief conversation with J. C. Smith, European vice-president of the Can- adian National, ceased. The new telephone system was demonstrated to a group of Canadian and American newspapermen and officials of the railway and some 60 calls were placed from the speeding train. While the train was speeding at near- ly 60 miles an hour between Oshawa and Kingston, the Canadian Press re- presentative aboard placed a call for Hon. James Malcolm, Minister of Trade and Commerce, at his home in Ottawa. Within a very few minutes the Minister had been called to his telephone. His voice could be heard as plainly as though he were talking on any ordinary telephone, and he stated that he too could hear very plainly. Under the system now introduced to speak to a passenger on the train is as simple as to call a business man in his office in another city. The per- son wishing to place a call steps into came home from work, and the ter- rible discovery was made after the Morrison children had had their din- ner with the Harmer family. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Knox, 93 El- don avenue, the parents of the mur- dered woman, could throw no light on what might have been the cause of the tragedy. So far as they know the young couple in spite of unem- ployment of Mr. Morirson, were quite happy and on the best of terms. Their home was always well-kept, and neat, and tidy, and this was ap- parent when the police made a search of it after being called there. Every- thing was in perfect order, and the a curtained telephone booth, which hides the intricate equipment of the operating panel. An ordinary tele- phone set is on the table. Simply call "long distance" and ask for the per- son required, just as in the case of any other conversation of this kind. Within a very few minutes the call is put through. : The first call yesterday was placed by Sir Henry Thornton, chairman and general manager of the National ~ Railways, to Hon an: | Malcolm. "You are somewhat of & flying knight," said Mr. Malcolm, he congratulated Sir Henry on the official inauguration of the two-way. i conversation. re
