of Washington.
WASHINGTON, Feb. la double tragedy
occurred here last night in the neighborhood
Of Eighteenth and q streets a fashionable
residence part OF the city, in which Howard
Schneider killed his brother-in-law, Frank
Hamhnk, aged twenty one years, aud per-
haps fatally wounded his own wife Schnei-
der is a young man Of good family, but OF
dissolute habits, Last June he took his wife
then Miss Hamlnk, ont riding, and driving
70 Hyattsville, Nd, showed her a marriage
license which he had procured in Baltimore,
and at the point Of pistol threatened to
kill her and himself if she did not marry
him. Nas
Thoroughly frightened she consented, and
upon her return home she kept the matter
quiet, but it finally leaked out The parents
Of both parties, after consultation, con-
cluded that il was better TO let the couple
live together and Schneider took up his resi-
dence with his wife's folks Soon after he
became dissipated and kept late hours, and
last Wednesday night he was locked out of
the house. he then made threats that he
would kill his wife and her father, Mr.
Hamlink
Shot Through the Heart.
Last night he sent a note to his wife by a
colored man, asking for his clothes, and re-
duesting her 70 leave home and go with
him Mrs. Schneider replied that She did
not care 10 have anything 10 do with him.
A short time afterward Mrs Schneider. in
company with her brother and sister, went
to church. Schneider hearing Of this laid
in wait for her, and on the return Of the
party from church he fired five shots at
them, three striking young Hamlink the
first entering the heart, causing instant
death. Another shot struck Mrs Schneider
in the abdomen, and is thought to be fatal.
Mrs Schneider's sister escaped without in
jury
AS soon az the deed was committed
Schneider walked to the police station and
surrendered himself He informed the Of
ficer at the desk that he had shot q man ON
@ street in self defense.
Mrs. Schneider win Die.
Mrs Schneider was carried to her parents
home and physician summoned She was
conscious but in too great agony to give an
account Of the tragedy. An examination Of
her injuries convinced the physician that
her case is hopeless She is about twenty
three years Of age and an attractive woman.
The murderer is not yet thirty. He comes
Of an eminently respectable family and fol-
lowed the calling Of an electrician. His
brother is a well known architect.
A new model Merwin, Hubert & Co re-
volver, s8-caliber, with five empty shells,
was found in the street near the scene of the
tragedy, and is supposed to belong to
Schneider
Schneider met Jennie Hamlink on the
streets several days ago and threatened to
cut her throat for having informed Colonel
Hamlink Of his marriage to her sister.
Last Thanksgiving day he wantonly shot
an inohensiye old man who had climbed
into his brothers buggy while it stood ont
side livery stable, and seriously injured
him in the leg He was arrested and is now
under 81 600 bonds for that offense.
