THIS WOMAN
FOUND DEAD.
Husband Says She Was
Addicted to the Use
of Str Ong Drink.

Philadelphia Jan. I7-Tane Rank
in, restaurant keeper of I242 Cal
lowhili street, was found dead on
Monday night in house at 1905
Hunting Park avenue. where she
had formerly taken boarders. but
which has been dismantled and
emptied Of its furniture.
George Weber. in the employ of
Benjamin F.. Teller & Bro. real
estate agents. had gone there to
pat "For Rent" sign on the,
house. He discovered the body
OF Mrs. Rankin lying, fully dressed
on feather bed in one of the bare
and cherries rooms. He told the
police OF Mrs. Rankin's death
yesterday morning, and the body
was taken to the Morgue. There
the husband identified it.
Mrs. Rankin is said to have
been greatly addicted to the use OF
strong drink. The exact cause OF
her death is not likely to be deter
mined before the inquest is held:
1t was rumored that she had been
asphyxiated by gas. but Weber
declares that there was no odor of
gas in the house when he entered
it. The theory was also suggested
that she had met with foul play. as
she was known on Saturday last TO
have gone out to receive a pay
ment of money from former
boarder.
The husband of Mrs. Rankin
says that she had long led a dis
solute life. He brought her from
ireland sevent eli years ago to
marry her, and started in the board |
ing house buriness, while he himself |
kept restaurant. According to
his statement, she drank all of the
profits ofboth establishments.
Mrs. Rankin had four children,
and her husband asserts that she
abused them at the board ne hose
while in her cups. This determined
him to take a decisive step, and he
sold the furniture of the boarding
house last week and gave up the
case. leaving Mrs. Rankin there on
aturday with only feather bed
md sewing machine. She was
intoxicated and abusive, but PROM
sed to get sober and to 60 to their
lone in Callowhill street in the
'vcning. The husband says that
le never saw her alive again.
