LAREDO MYSTERY CLEARED
Identity of the Murdered Woman
and Girl and of the Suicide
Establisheds

DALLAS, Texas, Nov. l4.-[Spe-
cial The woman killed near La
redo yesterday and called Caroline
Memm, or Mem, was Mrs. Chris
tina Hemm, of st. Louis. She
came to Dallas in September last,
and registered at the Postoffice
hotel as Mrs. Schultz. Two letters
are at the hotel for her now. She
left the hotel in few days and
took board in a private family in
East Dallas. About the middle
of October she left Dallas, be-
ing called to st. Louis, Mis-
souri,, by telegram announcing
the death OF. her real husband,
Hemm. About two weeks ago she
returned to Dallas wearing deep
mourning, and bringing with her
girl six years old whom she said
was her niece, and whom she called
Ethel Fisher. On Thursday of
last week the woman and child
called at the Postoffice hotel to
pay the proprietress, Mrs. Marks, a
small balance. She told Mrs.
Marks her real name at this time,
and said the reason she had reg
istered as Mrs. Schultz in Sep
TENDER last was because she was
trying to avoid a man named
Kuntz, Of ST. Louis, who had long
wanted her to marry him and
which she declined to do until her
husband, who was in bad health,
should die. She said she was afraid
Kuntz would kill her for this, so
she changed her name. She left
for Houston, Texas, last Thursday
night, telling Mrs. Marks she was
to be married at Houston, but did
not name the man. Her last words
on leaving were "when l am mar
ried, / shall send you a group pic
tufe Of my husband, my niece and
myself" There is no doubt that
the three dead bodies at Laredo,
the result of the double MUIR
der and suicide are those OF Kuntz,
Mrs. Hemm and Ethel Fisher, all
| OF st. Louis.

While L do not look for a heavy
increase, ! believe business will
continue on its present excellent

mers is that while crops have been
heavy prices have been low and
they cannot purchase with the
grain the amount of manufactured
articles which they would like to.
The country along the line OF the
road however Is rapidly filling up
with settlers, more mouths will
have to be fed and more and more
farming implements will be bought
so that the local traffic will be
proportionstely swelled.
Thewelfare of the road is not that
