FOUND DEAD ON THE SOFA
Achille Waldteu.el Passes
Away Under Most Peculiar
Circumstances.
The Gas Turned On, but 1t Is Be
lieved to Have Been the Result
of an Accident.

Achille Waldteufel, general manager of
the Catholic Art and Book Company, 723
Market street. was found dead in the par
lor of his home, Ala Van Ness avenue
yesterday morning. The deceased was
lying on the sofa when discovered. One
of the gas jets was turned on in full force,
the doors and windows tightly closed, in
dicating suicide, though the family pro-
tests that death was the result of accident.
sit could not have been suicide" said
Mrs. Waldteufel. There was no reason
why he should do such a thing. am
sure it was the result of an accident"
Further than this the family do not care
totalk. This reticence has probably given
rise 10 the suicide theory.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Wood, who
rents the upper fiat of Ala Van Ness
avenue to the Waldteufels, perceived a
strong odor of gas. She traced the odor
to the front parlor, which Is used exclu-
sively by her tenants. She called her son
and the two proceeded into the room. On
the sofa lay Mr.. Waldteufel apparently
asleep.
Young Wood first found the Jet from
which the gas was flowing, and stopping
that hastily opened all the doors and win
dows. DR.. Mattuer, who lives near by.
was hastily summoned, and as soon as he
saw the man pronounced him dead. Just
when death occurred is not known, though
the body was warm when found.
Deputy Coroners Smith and Hallett
were called, but were unable to learn
whether death was the result of suicide
or of accident.
Mr.. WaldteufeI has not been well for a
long time, asthma being the particular
trouble. For the last four nights be has
slept on the parlor sofa. Last night he
was lying on the sofa when his wife re-
tired clock. He was reading a news
paper at the time, and it is presumed that
finally becoming sleepy, he attempted to
turn off the gas, but only partially sue
ceeded.
Ii is said that the business in which Mr..
Waldteufel was engaged has not been very
prosperous o: late, though this is not
given as any reason why he should COM
nit suicide. Recently he has moved from
the street floor to some rooms upstairs in
the History Building.
The deceased has been in the book bust
ness in this City for the last twenty years.
He was a native of France and about 66
years old. He leaves a wife and several
grown sons and daughters, all of whom
were partners in the Catholic Art and
Book Company.

These fellows had q rabbit-tight wire
