POLICE BAFFLED.
MURDERS OF THREE WOMEN IN SYDNEY. REWARD FOR INFORMATION. SYDNEY, December 21. A reward of £250 in each case is offered for information concerning the murder of May Miller, whose 'body was found on December 10, and Bessie O’Connor, aged 16, who was discovered battered to death in National Park on December 15. The police are baffled. It is suggested that the crimes are the work of the same person concerned in the Hilda White outrage. There is a striking similarity in the fact that all the bodies were found in a state of nudity. (The body of a nude woman, identified as May Miller, aged 30, was discovered in Queen’s Park. Waverley, on December 10. The head was terribly battered with a sharp instrument. The police are of opinion that the woman was foully murdered elsewhere, and the body dumped in the park overnight Hilda White, aged 32, a New Zealander, was found strangled in Centennial l ark on July 27. The Coroner returned a verdict of murder against some person unknown.)
