southeast, at o'clock pa m. yesterday.
The funeral was prirate;iand was only
attended by the members of the imme
diate family. Interment was made in
Glenwood cemetery.
Advices received from New York
state that some of theJ mystery sur
rounding the suicide has been cleared
away, and it is stated positively that
the doe who was the last person to
see Miss Lenor in her rooms at the
Sturtevant House Sunday night, was
DIR. Hans Treskow, of No. 49T Sixth
avenue, New York.
The advices state that DR.. Treskow
has been known to have been a partic
ular friend of Miss Leneir for the past
three years, and that he first met her
in this city and-the city of Baltimore.
1t is said that he has relatives living
in this city, but investigation has fail
ed to locate them. Treskow is hand
some young German, and has frequent
ly been seen on the streets in company
with Miss Lenoir.
He has a handsomely fitted office in
the house of Mrs. Tryon at No. Ill
West Thirty fourth street. New York,
and he also has dispensary and drug
store at No 4gT Sixth avenue. The
sign on his office in West Thirty-fourth
street bears the simple words. DIR.
Treskow," but at No. 49I Sixth-avenue
a large and conspicuous sign bears the
words, DIR. Treskow's Dispensary
The former place is elaborately fur
nished, but the latter place is of dingy
appearance with an office partitioned
off at the back, and windows on which
appears the sign, Medical Consulta-
tion Free
