A Double Murder-ThO Fatal Ending of
 An Illicit Leve.
 IND1ANAPoLIs, Oct. 6.-Shertly before five o'clock this evening another double murder was enacted in this city, the cause of it being illicit love. For some years past William Fultz, 8 young German baker, is alleged to have been intimate with the wife of Al Neff, clerk in retail clothing store. This evening Mrs. Neff and FuItz met at the residence of the womsn's sister during her absence. They were in the house but a short time when two pistol shots were heard by the neighbors. Shortly after the first shot Mrs. Nef ran to the door of the house crying, 'I am shot, send for my husband" and fell dead in the doorway. On entering the house Fultz wss found lying upon the bed of his room dead having shot himself through the heart. An hour before the shooting Fultz told friend that he was going to kill himself, but his friend did not think he would do so. Ths murdered woman has heretofore borne good name. It is thought the two quarralled. hence the shooting.
