TWO GIRLS SHOT
BY REJECTED SUITCR.
Posse Of Citizens with Bloodhounds
in Pursuit-Victims Mortally
Wounded.

Galena, ILL.,, Jan. 12.-Unrequited love
was the cause Of an attempted murder
last evening, as a result of which Amelia
and Tillie Bergman, sisters, are at the
point of death, and their assailant,
George Duerrstein, is being traced with
bloodhounds and posse of thirty-fve
citizens, headed by Sheriff Homrich.
The shooting occurred at the gate Of
the Bergman residence, and was wit
messed by a friend OF Duerrstein, who
assisted him in getting away. A vehicle
was tied near the scene of the attempted
murder, and it was in this that the par
ties escaped, closely followed by force
of street laborers who heard the shots.
AT distance of but few feet the in
sanelyjealous sutton opened fire on the
ladies, remarking to Miss Amelia as he
shot: You will love me or die" The
sisters, who are employed as stenogra-
piers, were accompanied home by Duerr-
stein. whose company was Objectionable
to them, and as a result of his being In
formed of the fact the shooting occurred.
The girls, aged 20 and II years re-
spectively. are daughters of a widowed
mother, whom they support, and the cap
ture Of their assailant will probably re-
suit in lynching. Both are probably
fatally injured, one being shot in the
head, while the base of tie abdomen
of the other is the resting place of the
second bullet fired from 22-caliber re-
