Adopted daughter Arrested.

CHICAGO. ILL, March ll--Mrs. G..
Bragg. widow Of Frederick Bragg. resid-
ing at 2ll Thirty-first street. was found
Wednesday morning lying in bed uncon-
scious with bullet hole through her
head. She cannot recover.
Josephine Bragg, her adopted daugh-
ter, fifteen years old, was arrested. Sne
slept with her adopted mother last
night. but claims to know nothing Of the
shooting. Mrs. Bragg was the owner
of a great deal Of property and was con-
sidered a very wealthy woman, her adcG'-
cd daughter being, 1t IS said. the only
heir.
The revolver with which the shooting
was supposed to have been done was
found several hours later concealed IN
a closet IN the house. While they are
not certain that the girl herself IS d.
rectly responsible for the crime the po-
lice believe she knows more than she
has related.
Mrs. Bragg regained Consciousness. last
evening. She said she awoke Win
singing sensation in her head. and soon
became unconscious. She saw no one
I'm the house. but refuses to believe that
her adopted daughter was implicated.
The girl was adopted by Mrs Bragg,
whose husband was a wealthy real es-
tate man. when she was a mere baby,
and the secret Of her life had never been
divulged to her. She always 'elieved
that Mrs. Bragg was her real mother.
