BILE death gave her and for a long
time her life was dispaired of. She
rallied, however, and some four years
ago started a laundry on Seventh
street. Her daughter assisted her un-
til about two years ago. when she sold
out and started the Banner laundry at
1927 Nicollet avenue. Lately her daugh-
ter has had entire charge of the bust
ness.
Annie Elias was twenty-five years
old, and of a lovable disposition. She
full rs to her associates, and rather
averse to society. Mr.. Hallauer was
the only gentleman who called at her
home.
Mrs. Elias has two brothers liv-
ing; one a farmer at Owatonna and
another in one of the Dakotas. Loren
Elias, the son, is about five feet eight
on nine inches tall and inclined to be
stout. He is about thirty-two years of
age and of rather dark complexion.
His eyes are blue and have cold.
morbid look. A long, sharp nose, thin
lips and a characterless expression
completes his facial makeup. He US
ually wears a beard and is generally
well dressed. He was committed to
the hospital for the insane at st. Peter
March 1, 1895, his mother filing the
complaint against him. The questions
and answers filed at his examination
show that insanity was hereditary in
the family on the mothers side and
that she had been insane. Loren re-
mained in the asylum but two months.

NEW YORK, June 2.-The World
tomorrow will publish a telegraphic
poll of the next congress as far as
obtainable upon the silver, tariff and
income-tax questions. The World
sums up the result as follows: "In a
general way, it may be said that out Of
116 members who gave unequivocal
answers to the siver questions, so are
unqualifiedly in favor of free coinage,
A favor bimetallism generally, with
the proviso Of an interna tional agree
ment. Only II can fairly be classed
as favoring a single gold standard,
and the attitude of some of these even
is not definite. The South and far
Western states are almost unanimous
for free coinage, the central states lean
towards silver with international BIZ
metallic qualifications, and it is only
in New York, New England and ad-
jacent Eastern states that there are
any avowedly gold-standard men, In
regard to the tariff, only % members

are free traders. The moderates are
chiefly those who think changes will
be necessary in order to increase rev.
enues. The income-tax question
brought out many sharp and piquant
answers. Forty-nie congressman say
that they favor the principle of the
tax. Forty-seven oppose it. A great
many evaded the question or failed to
answer it. A few details by states
will be interesting. Alabama, Arkan-
sas, California, Colorado, Florida, Ida
no, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada,
North and South Carolina, South Da-
kota, Virginia, Washington and Wy
oming are solid for silver so far as
heard from. The bimetallists are
chiefly in Delaware, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana,
Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ne
braska, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West
Virginia. New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Massa-
chusetts and Vermont have the gold
advocates. Alabama, Arkansas, Tex
as, the Carolinas, Georgia, Louisiana
and most of the other Southern states
are solid for the income tax New
York and the East generally oppose
it. Elsewhere the division is nearly
even.''

DOUBLE TRAGEDY IN NIINNEAPO-
LIS SURROUNDED BY MUCH
MYSTERY.
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
DEAD, AND THE SON IN A CELL
CHARGED WITH THEIR
MURDER.
THE AUTHORITIES MYsTIFIED.
Inclined to Believe the Mother
Killed Her Daughter, Then
Committed Suicide.

The dead and mutilated bodies of
Mrs. Marcia NJ. Elias, aged fifty-five
years, and her daughter Annie, aged
twenty-five years, were found dead in
bed at their home, 1929 Nicollet ave-
nue., Minneapolis, at 4 o'clock Friday
morning.
Both women had been shot, and
were bleeding profusely from gunshot
wounds in the head.
The murder occurred shortly after
4 o'clock a. M, and death in each
case must have resulted almost i'm
mediately.
Loren Elias, son and brother Of the
dead women, is in Jail suspected of
the crime, and circumstances strongly
connect him with being the murderer,
although he protests his innocence.
Young Elias was until recently an
inmate of the insane asylum at st.
Peter.
Mrs. Elias and her son and daugh-
ter coupled a fiat Of five rooms over
Hart's drug store at 1929 Nicollet ave-
nue.. The murderer fired two shots
which were distinctly heard in the
neighborhood c. A Maule, night
clerk at the drug store, became
alarmed at the second shot, and at
once began an investigation. Maule
went to the apartments Of Mrs. Elias
and raped loudly on the door. Re-
ceiving no answer, he rushed to the
street and there met two police Off
GERS, and told them of the shots. All
three rshed up stairs, and Officer
Martin broke down the door.
Hurriedly they passed through the
side room and parlor to the adjoining
bed room, where a terrible sight met
their eyes. In the left-hand corner Of
the room stood the bed. Upon it lay
the bodies of Mrs. Elias and her
daughter with frightful gaping wounds
in their heads and blood scattered all
about Mrs Elias lay on the outside
of the bed clothing and was dressed
in light wrapper. Her mouth was
blackened and burned; the left eye
was torn from its socket and the whole
left side of the cheek was burned and
torn as though a knife or hatchet
had aided the 44-caliber Smith &
Wesson, which lay on her shoulder, in
its deadly work. Her hands were par
TALLY crossed on her breast, the right
fingers very close to the butt of the
revolver, as though she had placed
it's muzzIe in her mouth and pulled
the trigger.
In the top of Mrs. Elias head was
an ugly wound indicating the path
of the bullet, which was found i'm
bedded in the wall.
Beside the mother lay the daughter,
who, few hours before, had been in
the full bloom of youth and health.
She was dressed in her night dress,
and was under the bed clothing, and
about her head was large pool OF
blood. The same revolver which had
killed her mother had killed her, as
was plainly indicated by a Jagged
hole in the exposed side Of her head
where the bullet had entered.
The young woman had also been
St. Paul daily globe., 1895-06-02

struck on the head by some blunt in
strument, which had caused instant
death The girls hair was slightly
burned as though by a bullet.
Officer Martin at once notified police
headquarters and Coroner Kistler was
summoned to the scene. The coroner's
first impression and that of the police
was that the mother had taken her
daughters life and then committed
suicide. The police carefully investi-
gated the matter, however, and found
that there was a third member of the
family in the person of the son Loren,
now in custody, who had been seen
about the house Friday and who had
been released from the insane asylum
at the request of the mother short
time agdS
Then fellowed the theory that the
son, in a fit of insanity, had murdered
his mother and sister and fled. All
day long the police hunted for him,
but no trace of him could be found un-
til a few minutes after o'clock last
night, when he was seen out in front
of Hart's drug store, over which the
tragedy had occurred, with a copy of
the Journal in his hand, and looking
up at the windows. The druggist
called him into the store and word
was at once sent to police headquarters,
where the inspectors had again ar
rived fully at tee conclusion that the
mother had murdered her daughter and
then suicided.
The central patrol wagon with In
spectors Horward. Courtney and Of
ficers Nick Smith and Peter Fox and a
Clio b e reporter was soon on the
scene, and Leon Elias was turned over
to the inspectors who took him to
St. Paul daily globe., 1895-06-02

to bed about o'clock. His mother
was there at the. time, and his sister,
who, earlier in the evening, had been
out walking with G. Hallauer,
jeweler at 243 Nicollet avenue Elias
room is located between the kitchen,
which is the rear room, and the bed
room occupied by the mother and sis
ter, and the kitchen can only be
reached by passing through his room.
Elias said that he closed the door be-
tween his room and his mothers and
went to bed, and did not wake up until
it was broad daylight. When he awoke
he said, the door was still closed, and
he dressed himself and climbed out the
rear kitchen window on to the shed and
dropped off the shed, a distance of
some six feet. to the ground below,
and walked out to beyond the car shops,
where he remained the greater part
of the day.
He said that he had climbed out the
rear kitchen window once or twice be-
fore, and had done so because his
mother had a peculiar way of lock-
ing the doors when she went to bed,
and he could not open them and did
not want to wake her when he went
out early mornings, and consequently
climbed out the window on to the shed
roof The appearance of the window
and the condition in which the police
found it yesterday morning showed
clearly that some one had left the
house either before or after the murder
by means of this window and shed
roof The sash curtain on the window
was torn down and hung by one side.
1t had been supported by wire of
sufficient strength to have resisted any
ordinary wrench The window catch
itself was unfastened, but the window
was down. A freshly cracked shingle
showed where some one had stepped.
Asked by Mayor Pratt if he had not
heard the pistol shots Elias replied
that he had not, or if he had, did not
remember them. His mother he said,
was in st. Paul Friday and had spoken
of his going over there She had
packed his valise. which the police
found and turned over to the coroner,
and had left it on the table in his room
Besides laundry and other things it
contained new pair of pants, in the
pockets of which was S109 in cash.
Elias told the mayor his mother had
said Friday that she would put some
money In the grip for him, but he
did not know how much she had
placed there. When they searched
him the police found $50 in cash on his
person, besides diamond ring. This.
too, he said, his mother had given to
him.
Elias took the sad affair very much
to heart. and the police are at a loss
what theory to work upon. Elias is
insane and hopelessly insane. No one
questions that. But his insanity seems
to be of the harmless kind, and Mayor
Pratt unhesitatingly stated last night
that he did not believe him guilty.
Elias told what he knew about the
4-calibre revolver which had been
used to commit the deed. He said it
belonged to him, and the last he had
seen of it was in his trunk, where the
case was found yesterday.
Superintendent of Police Smith and
Inspector Howard take the same view
of the case as Mayor Pratt. and do not
believe the insane man committed the
crime. Nevertheless he was taken to

tested his innocence. The police are
still undecided as to whether the son
committed the deed or not.
On the way down town Elias wept
bitterly, and kept repeating:
'Oh, God, what have 1 got to live
for now?"
To Supt. Smith and Mayor Pratt he
told his story willingly. He stated
that the past two or three days he had
spent down on the river bank, beyond
the Milwaukee shops, lying in the shade
Of the trees. On Friday night he went
