Alexander Wei Kills Himself and shoots
Woman.
NEW York, July 2-lrhe denouesuent OF
the mysterious disappearance OF Alexander
Weiss, the advertising agent Of the New
Yorker Herold, and Marie Staedfng, his
companion, came in the morning in fur
nished room house at 30 Third avenue.
Weiss strangled, stabbed and shot the girl
and repeatedly stabbed himself, and then
ended his existence by putting bullet into
his brain.
The girl is still alive, but her condition
is 50 serious that Surgeon J. b. Stone, OF
Bellevue hospital, where she was taken, is
doubtful about her recovery.
The bedclothes were all rumpled and
showed evidence of an awful struggle.
Weiss had evidently twisted the rope
around the girls neck before she could
defend herself and then had tried to muir
der her. Jealousy caused the double
crime
The pair were lovers. They meant Ia
die together, as farewell letters left by
them plainly tell. But the tragic method
OF death planned by the man was too hor-
rible for the woman. Her courage failed
and she battled hard for her life.
