The Body of Mrs. Gehrig
Found in a WOOdShed.
Police Say That It's Probably
a Case of Murder.
Circumst stances at First Seemed 10
Indicate II Was Suicide.

Nevada, CAL, May 20-For nearly six
hours the dead body OF woman, which
was found hanging in woodshed at the
rear of the National Hotel, lay on table
ut the city hall. Shortly after George
Gehrig prominent brewer of this city,
identified the body as that of his wife,
who left him and their six children last
Wednesday. The tragedy is most myste-
rious. Her domestic life had been unhappy
ever since she came here in the early
eighties with her husband, and on We'd
nesday last she sent TO The Transcript IA
rambling letter complaining Of her treat
ment added To her sensational flight from
home indicate that she had taken her life
But the officers who have been inves-
tigating industriously think they have
many and strong grounds for suspecting
that murder has been committed. When
the body was found yesterday there were
several gashes in her head, pool of blood
30 feet away and at another point pile
of split wood was besmattered with
blood, two or three sticks having the ap-
pearance Of having been used for clubs.
There were wounds on the head ranging
from bali an inch to an inch in length.
The skull was fractured in four places.
From the nature of the wounds, il hardly
stems probable that the woman could
have hanged herself afterward, had she
inflicted them. Her wrists have the ap-
pearance OF having been grasped tightly.

Court Decides Mrs. MunrOe Is En-
titled to Reimbursement.
She Was Compelled TO Take UP a Note
Made by Failed Bicycle Firm.

Alfred 5. johnson, assignee OF Mdnroe
81 Williams bicycle dealers, asked the
Appellate Court for an opinion on GER
tain questions arising under his trust
and today the opinion of the court written
by Chief Justice Matteson, was delivered.
On June ID, 1896, the firm gave n
mortgage upon their stock in trade to
Susan A. Munroe normally TO secure the
payment Of "a note of the firm for 5000,
but which i'm fact was intended To cover
such advances and endorsements as the
mortgage should make for tho firm at the
time and subsequently TO the execution Oh
the mortgage. This mortgage was
acknowledged June 18th, 1896 and re-
corded september ID, 1896. On Juno 20
1895, the mortgagec endorsed FOR the iirin
"A note OF that date for $1,000 made by the
firm and payable 10 the order OF the
mortgngee four months after date mt the
City National Bank, Providence, IL. l..
This note the mortgages was subsequently
compollcd to pay. One of tho bicycle
manufacturers that furnished wheels To
the firm required security for goods de
liyered and Mrs Munroe became surety ON
two bonds in tho SUN of S22OU. After the
execution of the mortgage these bonds were
defaulted and she was compelled To pay
on them $1,000
Mr. .Johs.on was elected assignee on
Oct 18th. 1896, and the mortgage CON
Cured with him I'm the asking AN opinion
Of the court on the following questions
