Although Bullet Wound Is At One
Side and Hard to Reach by Man
Himself Murder Is Not
Suspected.

The body of Stephen Lang, of 1865
Avenue A, New York, found near
the old Staten Island Clay Company's
plant at Maurer early yesterday NOR
ming, shot through the heart, was
claimed this morning by Louis Ber-
ia, relative, who came here on the
late train on the Staten Island rail-
road last night and spent the re-
mainder of the night here.
Mr. Berta explained that Lang al
ways carried a revolver when he went
from New York into country districts
on business. He was sewing ma
chine agent by occupation and had
come to this city to canvass, proba-
bly,, when he arrived Thursday via
the Staten Island railroad, as was
shown by the date on the return half
of the excursion ticket which was
found in his pocket.
The suicide theory is borne out by
the finding of some money and jew
elry on the mans person and the fact
that the wound, although the bullet
entered far to the left, could in all
probability, have been self-infiicted.
An umbrella lay near the body. Had
the shot been fired by second per-
son robbery would. as almost a mat
ter of certainty, have been the mo-
tive
The body was left at 7. F. BurlSe's
undertaking establishment today
pending the official investigation.
The revolver with which Lang was
killed was taken to police headquar-
ters.
