The Last Victim. Evidently KILLED 60
Keep Her Mouth Closed--A Son Suspect
ed of the Crime.
DETROIT, MICH, January s.-The
Knoch murder case has been brought into
prominence again BY the sudden death OF
Mrs. Elizabeth Knoch, the mother Of the
Inflated family. She had been sick only
few days, and Thursday sent for the Of
dcers for the purpose. IL Is said OF max
ing statement about the recent case Of
arson and murder. Before they arrived
at her bedside she had relapsed into .
comatose condition from which she did
not rally. She died Friday. In the opinion
Of doctor who had accompanied the Of
hcers to her home, Mrs. Knoch was a..
fected with heart and lung trouble, but
there were symptoms Of poisoning.
A post-mortem was held yesterday,
when, to the surprise Of the physicians. II
was found that her skull was fractured b.
. heavy blow, which had left no mark. Il
was suspected that she and a son, Gus
tave, had had some connection with the
former murder, and the officers had been
expecting an ante-mortem statement
from the mother, who has been confined
at home with nervous prostration, Il ID
said, ever since she was on the stand on
the inquest on the remains Of the late
tragedy.
This Il the seventh suspicious death in
this family. The father, Christian, was
found dead in the barn some years ago
with cuts in his head, said 70 have been
made BY the kick Of horse. A brother,
Charles, disappeared two years ago this
winter and his body was found IN the
river the next spring. with marks Of vio-
lence and chain about the body from an
unused pump on the Knoch homestead,
and last month another son. Frank, was
killed, with his wife and two babies. and
the house burned with the dead bodies In
IL.
Suspicion has turned toward Gustave,
and II Is now strengthened BY the murder
Of the mother, though as yet no con-
evidence has been discovered.
Another brother, Herman, u q half-witted
fellow, who has been once confined In an
insane asylum, and an uncle, Joe, has
been for years mild lunatlc, though he
has never been considered dangerous.
