TAXI’S GRUESOME STORY
MURDERS AND VANISHINGS SIX PERSONS NOW INVOLVED MYSTERY OF PARIS STREETS By. Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received Feb. 7, 8.55 p.m. A. anw N.Z. Paris, Feb. 6. Six persons are now entangled in the mystery of the taxicab limousine in which the Austrian Archduke and the Archduchess were killed at Sarajevo. It has been attended by tragic results despite changes in ownership. Last June a chauffeur named Soulle was shot by a clerk who was recently sentenced to death, and last week-end the same cab was found abandoned on a lonely roadside with a pool of blood on the floor. It is assumed that the driver Cadorin was killed and his body thrown in the river. It now seems that the second owner of the taxi also vanished with a fare named Boucaud, a champion swimmer. Moreover Boucaud is violently in love with an attractive widow, Yvonne Brunot, who has been missing from her home since Friday. Boucaud's pocket-book has been recovered from the river, but the police refuse to believe the champion swimmer would choose that method of committing suicide.
