FRENCH INVENTION
CRIME OR HOAX?
DISMEMBERED LEGS MYSTERY
SPILSBURY'S" BLOOD TESTS London
Scotland Yard in faced with a baffling problem in their investiga tions into the discovery of a pair i of dismembered legs in a railway carriage at Waterloo Station last month.
Although hundreds of dotectives have been making inquiries all over London nothing has emerged which can help the police to arrive at a definito conclusion as to whether it is a case of murder or a grim hoax.
It can be stated defluitely that so far no material evidence has been found to support the theory of murder.
The discovery of stained gloves and cotton wool in trains may or may not prove useful.
In the meantime the police are hoping that the detailed medical examinations which have taken place may prove of value. The full result of these examinations, how- over, will not be known for some. days.
More than In any other mystery of recent times does the reapon- sibility for a decision as to whether this is a hoax or a crime rest on the conclusions reached by Sir Ber. nard Spilsbury,
One of the nunin points, which
Sir Bernard is expected to estab lish, is whether the man, from whose bady the legs were severed, was a normally healthy person. With this end in view, Sir Bernard is to conduct a test of the blood taken from the lega and also a special examination of the texture of the skin.
It is understood that his pre- liminary examination led him to the opinion that the legs had been severed nome twenty hours before discovery from a person who had been dead for three or four days.
