Clues Spur Murder Probe in Edith Burton Case
New York detectives chase two leads in the slaying of Edith Burton, a 21 year old stenographer. One theory links a plot to poison and seize money. the other points to Harry Cowan, a former hotel auditor who vanished last February with $22,000 missing and is now hospitalized in Brooklyn. Cowan confessed to the girl’s death but kept why unresolved, while an unmailed letter to Senator A B Lewis outlines a scheme involving marriage, money, and blackmail to gain control of funds totaling around $100,000. The note also suggests a motive tied to Cowan’s business debts and fear of exposure.
