neighboring cities regular troops are

AN INDIANAPOLIS SENSATION.
Father and Son Found Dead In Bed-A
Mysterious Affair.

Mysterious Affair.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 3O.-North Indi-
annapolis was startled this morning by
finding the dead bodies of Moses Smith
and his 15-year old son, Oliver. They
were discovered shortly before noon. The
father was half dressed, lying in bed
across the body of his son. On the floor
in the same room Mrs. Smith was found,
in an unconscious condition. When
aroused she was unable to account for
the death of her husband and son.
Her story was that she had gone to
bed as usual in another room, the hus-
band and son sleeping together. She
knew nothing more until she was aroused
at noon.
There is a story current of intimacy be-
tween Mrs. Smith and Worth Yancy, a
former employe of her husband. Moses
Smith carried a $4,000 life insurance
policy, but his sons are the beneficiaries.
The Coroner's autopsy did not develop
the cause of death, but it is undoubtedly
due to asphyxiation, either from chloro-
form or escaping natural gas. The neigh
borhood is intensely excited.
