VICTIMS RESibE.S5 OF DETROIT
SUPPOSED MURDERER A BARTEN-
DER AND HIS COMPANION A
MARRIED WOMAN.
UCTkS RESIBE.<5 OF DETROIT

Detroit, Nov 1.-two night police
men in Wyandotte, twelve miles down
the river from Detroit, early in the
day discovered a horse and buggy
standing at the corner of Fourth and
Oak streets with III. j. Hillebrand and
Mrs. w j. Miller of Detroit lying
dead in the buggy. Both were shot
through tie head and it is considered
by the authorities TO be clear case
of murder and suicide. Whether Hille-
brand or the woman fired the shots
is unknown A letter found on Hille-
brands person, written him by the
woman while he was in Chicago a
short time ago, told of an intimacy
between the two and warned Hille-
brand that he must be careful of her
husband, who, she said, had threaten
ened to shoot him If he returned here.
Both bodies were slightly warm when
taken to the undertaker's soon after
their discovery, indicating that the
shooting took place a comparatively
short time before they were found
HillebTand was a bartender. Mrs.
Miller had been married only year
and a half. Her husband says he be-
lieves her refusal TO elope with Hille-
brand caused him TO shoot her and
commit suicide. Miller says his wife
told him that Hillebrand had threat
ened her life once before when she
refused TO accompany him to Chicago.
