EVA TO BE AVENGED.
Friends of the Union Depot Suicide
Send for official Records.
HER DESERTER is UNDER ARREST,
He Hears of the Tragedy in Chicago and
Returns to Russia.
NOW I'M POLISH JAIL AWAITING TRIAL

The deserter Of pretty Eva Bloch, who,
forsaken, friendless and in strange coun-
try, ended her trouble by suiciding at the
Union station, is in Polish Jail awaiting
trial for his crime.
Coroner Mcdonald yesterday came into
possession of letter written jointly by
Eva's sister and brother-in-law to j. Bank
er, formerly of Warsaw, but now residing in
Kittanning. Banker knew the girls
friends and wrote to them after.the suicide,
receiving a reply two or three days ago.
This he turned over to D. L. Nulta. "a Kittan-
ming attorney, who turned the letter over
to the Coroner and secured GER
titled copy of all the testimony
taken at the inquest together with COM
plete record of the case, and full particulars
of the burial of the remains by the gener-
psity of John Zanowsky. countryman of
the deceased. This information will be
transmitted to the friends in Warsaw by
Mr.. Banker.
Scared by Eva's Action.
In the letter submitted to the Coroner,
Mr.. Nulta found it convenient to withhold
one page, which he said he had mislaid,
aud which contained the information that
the army officer had acknowledged that
after leaving Pittsburg he had gone as far
West as Chicago, where he got frightened at
the intelligence of her suicide and returned
at once to New York and sailed for home.
The arrest of the culprit was the result OF
full information sent to the Director of
Police at Warsaw by Coroner Mcdowell,
and it is probable he was arrested as soon as
he reached the town. .-.
The copy of the letter furnished to the
Coroner is as follows: ...
