BOTH WERE MURDERED
A TERRIBLE CRIME DISCOVERED
NEAR CINCINNATI.
A Farmer and His Wife Killed and
Their Bodies Partially Burned
THEIR SON Missing and IL Also Sup.
nJyed tn Have Been Murdered.

Cir dnnati, Jan. 9.-Harry Zaner lives
near this city. Zaner and his wife were
found murdered. Zaner was farmer and
q good citizen. The murder was evident
ly committed yesterday. Zaner, wife and
one son compose the family. Zaner and
his wife are dead, the son missing. The
wife has five bullet holes In the face and
Zarer's head is mashed by blows on the
rear. Outside of the house are pools of
bleed, and the stock Of his gun lies near
him IN the kitchen with tue barrel bent
out of shape. The clothes were partly
burr ed off and the faces Of both more
or less burned. The barn is burned With
its contents, nearly full of hay, three
horses and four or five cattle perished.
The evident purpose was to burn the
house as the victims were saturated with
oil. But neighi,ors came in time to save
the. house. 1t is the theory that the son,
who was quiet young man, may have
bee1 burned in the barn. in making a
search about the house three pocket
books were found containing 1925. These
were all together. as if dropped in the
haste of the moment. Bureau drawers
and papers showed that bloody hands
had been about them. Two colored men
were seen in the village Of Hetnehyille,
half a mile away to-day. They asked for
razors. Zaner was man about sixty,
was soldier and a good citizen. The
crime is surrounded so far by mystery.
