A TarribIe Crime

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, October 9. -A At
knightstOwn, this morning about 2 o'clock
the fame dwelling belonging to n. B. Wade,
and occupied by Mrs. Sarah HOggins, her
mother and Mrs. Martha Gates, situated
south of the railroad was discovered on fire.
After breaking open the door, Mr..
Wade was found unconscious at his
but died In few minutes. His
mother was dead before taken out.
Mrs. Gates was not found until her limbs
and arms were burned off, and she died in q
short time. A shoe knife covered with blood
and a bottle of paris green were taken from
Wade's pocket, and the indications are he
murdered the two women and then com
mitted suicide, the testimony before the
cOroner's jury tending to substP1tiate this
theory.
