Murder Of n MI issOuri BRIDEGROOM.

ST. LOUIS, Dec 1O.-OnThursday evening, while
preparations were being made for nupitials
between Richard Bottcher and Miss Cora Gro
renbald, at the residence of the latters mother,
Charles Crorenbald, an uncle, Benz. F. Croren-
bald. brother of the young lady, and I. w.
Weber, rudely entered the house, peremptorily
ordered the party to disperse, and forbade the
marriage. During the confusion Bottcher was
shot in the leg by Weber. Chas. Crorenbald
and Weber were arrested and bailed, and Bott-
cher after having his wound dressed, returned
to Mrs. Crorenbald's house where he has since
remained. Yesterday afternoon Benz. F. Gro
renbald and Weber went to Mrs. COrenbald's
residence and demanded to see Bottcher,
This was refused, but after time Bottcher
left the house and started to run down Grand
Avenue. Young Crorenbald pursued and fired
four or Eve shots at him, three of which enter
ed his body, one passing through his heart and
killing him instantly. Crorenbald and Weber
were arrestel and locked up, ard Chas- Gro
renbald will probably be arrested, as the facts
developed prove that there was a premedlated
plan to kill Bottcher. The affair created a
great sensation, as Mrs. Crorenbald is widow
