A CONTRACTORS TERRIBLE DEED.
He MURDERS HIS WIFE AND
FOUR CHILDREN,
Ending His Own Existence at the
Same Time-Gas Used to Ac-
compliSh the Crime.

CHICAGO, July 5.-Frederick Hellman,
contractor, last night murdered his wife
and four children by asphy xiation, and
died with them. The victims of the hor
rble crime were: Ida Hellman, the wife,
81 years of age; Fritz, Hellman, II years.
Ida Hellman, 9 years; William Hellman,
years; Hedwig Hellman, years, and
Frederick Holman, 36 years.
The place of the tragedy was the He'll
man cottage. 60l Cornelia street. The
house is small, but it was their own, and
the Hellman family was supposed to be
living happily together.
That the murder was deliberately
planned by the father of the family dur
ing the past few weeks seems beyond
doubt. Eyer since Hellman built his
house it has been supplied with gas
pipes but there has been no connection
with the gas main and there were no fix
lures i'll the house. Several weeks ago
Hellman had the gas connected and fix
lures put in the family bedroom only,
the entire family sleeping in one small
room. 1t seems now certain that He'll
man had the gas put in for the express
purpose of using it in the murder of his
family.
The gas was turned on after the family,
excepting the husband, had gone to sleep,
and none regained consciousness. The
body OF Hellman showed evidence of a
struggle. He first shut the doors and
windows, then turned on the gas, and
laid down to die with his family.
There is only one explanation for the
frightful deed, and that IS that Hellman
was crazy. lie is said to have been fairly
we'll provided with worldly goods, and
to have had no family dissensions. He
was naturally of mOrose disposition, but
no ono thought he would commit suicide
or murder. He left a note for his brother,
in which he gave instructions regarding
the disposition of his property. He says
that he will not be living when the note
is received, but he says in il nothing Of
the premeditated death Of the rest OF the
family.

Church at Santa Rosa. He leaves large
family. One OF his children is Mrs. w.

were. The Mayor ordered the other

NEW YORK, July 5. - There were
sounds OF uproarious and unmistakable
mirth in the Scheutzenfest at Glendale
Park to-day, and spectators came run
ming from all parts of the ground to as
certain the cause. When they got inside
they saw big giant with jovial coun-
tenance which wears smile at all times,
but at that moment the SAID smile had
broadened materially. He was sur
rounded by little crowd of men, whose
life or death seemed to depend on shak-
ing his hands and shouting into his ears,
while the big fellow looked as if his in
terest in life consisted in his solving the
puzzle OF making one pair Of hands do
the work of twenty.
When matters had quieted down some

had gone to open innumerable bottles,
the questioning audience learned that the
big man was Geo. Helm OF the San Fran
cisco ScheutZen Nerein, and the crowd
comprised his fellow club men, and the
cause of rejoicing was the fact that George
