Tonosi Mihaly Said to
Have Killed His Board
ing Mistress Cap
tured.
CHEF MURPHY's CLEVER WORK
History of the Crime and the
Method by Which the
Perpetrator Was Traced

On the first of April of this year
man calling himself Thomas Michaels,
whose correct name we have since learn
ed to Tonosi Mihaiy, native of Hun
gary, got work as a railroad laborer on
the Central Railroad in Jersey City and
went to board with Hungarian family
named Schuaezepa at Suydam avenue
where his work was.
Mrs. Julia Schuaezepa had a number
of Hungarian workingmen boarding with
her, most of whom were employed at the
same place as Tonosi Mihaly.
On Monday April %, Tonosi Mihaly
did not go to work but remained at home.
Another boarder who was also i'll was
also at home. At about O'Clock in the
morning of said date, Tonosi AIihaly told
his fellow boarder he was at home with
him, that Morris Meskowitz, saloon
keeper a few streets away, who is also
Hungarian, wanted to see him. Tonosi
Mihaly was then alone in the house with
Mrs. Schuaezepa Late in the afternoon
the husband, returned to the house and
found the door fastened on the inside.
He entered through window and after
searching for his wife in every part of
the house, found her dead body conceal
ed in the cellar The woman had evi-
IDENTIFY been dead several hours and had
been strangled to death by means of one
of her stockings having been tightly tied
around her neck. The motive of the
murder was robbery as deceased was in
--the habit Of keeping her money concealed
on her person. The murderer was not
successful in getting any money as Mrs.
, Schuaezepa had given her money to her
banker.
On the day following the murder the
Chief of Police obtained information that
Tonosi Mihaly wrote letter to Buffalo
addressed to Mihaly Beres. This fact
together with description of envelope
was wired to the police authorities at
Buffalo and Detective Bennett was sent
there that evening. Bennett was sue
cessAul in getting the letter and locating
Beres, who has brother-in-la'w at West
Seneca.
Bennett also procured information that
the fugitive had worked for short time
in Cleveland O., and Yonkers, N. Y, be-
fore he came to Jersey City.
In the meantime the police got posses
sion of letter from the murderer's wife
that had been written from Buj, short
distance from Budapest in Hungary. It
was also learned that the man wanted
was born in that place and had served
four years on thesToIice force there.
The Consul General of AusrosH Hungary
In the city Of New York was then inter-
viewed by the police and from him in
formation was obtained that the Chief
Of the Royal Hungarian State Police at
Budapest would be the proper official to
communicates with to secure the capture
of bhe murderer in case he should go

at vinton. Benton County, Iowa. in
1865. He received his primary educa-

the family removed when he was a
small boy. He then entered the high
school at Stockton, Missouri, from
which he was graduated in due time
with an enviahle record for scholarship.
After preparatory course at an
academy at Columbia, Missouri, he be-
came student at the state university,
of which Institution he is an alumnus,
having graduated with the class of 1926
with the degree of Bachelor of Arts
after five years of continuous study in
its normal, scientific and classical de-
partments.
He was the valedictorian OF his class

For the five years previous to coming

TO Canon City was in 1889 and during
his stay here he visited the public
schools, which were housed in the
