It appears that Mr. Goldenberg had been in the habit of hanging his bedroomS. door key on a nail near the door whop ever occasion arose to allow the rooth- boy access into the bed room for cleaning and other purposes and it is probable that the person, who committed the outrage know of this. ⠀⠀
One of the things which batted the police was the story of a watchman that ho had handed Goldenberg a telegram at seven o'clock on the morning of his death It the story is true, Mr. Goldenberg must of course have been done to death after that hour. On the other hand, inquiries at the telegraph offices proved that no telegram at all was sent to Goldenberg.
According to Mr. P. S. Crawley, Mr. Goldenberg retired to his room at about interval time on Monday night at about] 11.15, Mr. A: M. Rangel confirms this as he was with Mr. Crawley, when Mr.. Goldenberg distinctly said he was going to bed. Was he hit on the head as soon as he turned on the light, which was screened with his pyjamas The boys of the Victoria Theatre bar said that they heard nothing unusual. Was Mr. Golden- berg killed as soon as he entered his room? Was there an argument between him and the murderer, which lasted, from 11.15 until after the theatre, was closed, and everybody gone when he was done to death Was robbery at the bottom of the outrago? These are some of the things which the police have to solve
