married Mrs. Amelia Fischer, siSt,
ter Of the former wife, who had helps
ed nurse the sick woman before she
died. The day following the wedding
Hoch obtained from Mrs. Fischer
$3.50, to be used, he said in paying a
mortgage on the furniture and house.
The next day he disappeared.
Mrs. Fischer-Hoch told Inspector
Shippy suspicious circumstances sur
rounding her sisters death and the
body was exhumed. An examination
and other experts, showed the pres
ence of arsenic in the stomach and
other organs.
Then the search for Hocn began.
After Chicago was searched, New
York, Cleveland, Milwaukee and other
cities were asked to look for Hoch,
and when his exploits with the sisters
we're known over the country, many
women recognized his picture as that
of a man they had married. More
than thirty claimed him, many of
them Chicago women, and it was de-
clared by the police that some 9TH
ers died under suspicious circum.
stances. Hoch was known to have
rented several flats in Chicago, where
he lived with women long enough to
get their money and then deserted
them.
ARRESTED IN NEW YORK.
Hoch was finally arrested in New
York where he was courting another
woman, on February /. He was
brought to Chicago and indicted by
the grand jury March 3. Hocb ridi-
culed the stories of the many women
who said he had married them, but
owned to being the husband of nine
| women, five Of whom are still living.
Mrs. Mary Becker of st. Louis; Mrs.
Jacob Huss, Wheeling, w. "; Mrs.
Julia Steinbrecher, Chicago; besides
Mrs. Walcker-Hoch are all said to
have died suddenly and under sus.
picious circumstances, leaving money
| which Hoch secured
The present trial started April 20
Much trouble was found in getting a
jury which suited Hoch, who wanted
young, unmarried Germans. The his
tory of the trial is still fresh in the
public mind.
Johann Hoch was born in Germany
in 1862. In 1895 he was indicted for
fraudulent bankruptcy and fed to the
United States, leaving wife and
three children. Two months after
landing in New York he began his
bigamous career by marrying, in
Wheeling. w. Va.,. widow named
Caroline Koch. Three months later
she died under mysterious circum.
stances and Hoch fled, leaving cloth.
