Cincinnati Ohio. Sept. 4.--There are
sensational developments today In
connection with the suicide last night
of George Conrad, head waiter at the
Gibson house. His wife, on apprehend-
ing letters from the wife of promi-
nent business man to Conrad. was
suing him for divorce and the wealthy
society woman for damages on ac
count of alienation of his affections.
The attorneys of Mrs. Conrad appealed
to the postal authorities and among
the letters from Conrad to women of
whom he was enamored there was
found one in which Conrad outlined
plan ito convey his wife to the middle
of the Ohio river, upset the skiff as
though by accident, save himself and
leave Mrs. Conrad to drown"
When Conrad was confronted by his
vile and attorneys with this letter and
knew he would be prosecuted he had
a hurried interview with the woman
for whom he deserted his wife, and
then killed himself. Mrs. Conrad said
he repeatedly invited her to take boat
rides, but she had been forewarned.
