WOMAN FORCES
HUNT FOR SLAYERS
Wife of Magician Wants
Mexico to Avenge Hus-
band and Daughter.

NEW YORK, June 9.-Through the
persistent efforts of Mrs. W. b. Wood,
the government Of Mexico has at last
taken steps 10 punish party Of Eative
sa lors whom she accuses OF drowning
her husband and beautiful daughter,
Bertha Mercedes, after robbing them
OF $4,000
That the Wood tragedy, which took
place in February last, IS now 10 be
thoroughly investigated was the news
brought 10 New York by John b. Dana.
5l9 West l5lst street. who was a pas
senger on the steamer from Vera Cruz
Mrs. Wood had pust succeeded IN
forcing the Mexicans to action at the
time I sailed" said Mr.. Dana. and
now I think It will not be long before
the miscreants receive the punishment
they deserve.
The schooner on which the Woods
had been passengers was located IN the
Gulf Of Campeachy, and their bodies
were found From a cursory examma-
ton. il appeared certain that the yes
sci had been scuttled. and that Mr.
Wood and his daughter. VINO were
touring as prestidigitateurs, had been
victims OF foul play.
THE Mexican authorities announced
on the day I was leaving Vera Cruz that
II they found. after a further search
OF the wreck that the $4,000 I'm money
and valuables were gone. they would
arrest the members Of the crew"
Mrs. " cod IS now al Er0n,eIa. Mex
tCO, of which port the vessel went down
and from which the sesrCh for the
submerged boat was CaTTICu on. She
went there just as soon as she received
word OF the loss OF her husband and
daughter. and has remained there, con-
nuaIly urging the MeNicaus 10 action.
Il do not think IL will be long before
evidence viii be fully adduCed TO show
that the Woods We're slain" said ar.
Dana. Mrs. Wood has been ably sec
Ondcd by Conrad Graeoer. q banker of
Shamokin, Pa, who was engaged to wed
ner daughter. The MgXlcaus were not
inclined 10 go verv ear a. first Dl.t when
they we're threatened by Mrs Wood and
Mr.. Greaber with possible international
complications they decided 10 act"
Prof Wood and his daughter were
natives of Scranton. and had a house
there, but they made New York city
their headquarters during the greater
part OF each year when they were in
America
The $4,000. which is supposed 10 have
excited the avarice of the sailors was
money made on tour OF South Amer
ca. Among the vBluables lost was a
string of pearls which was presented
TO Miss Wood by President Castro. OF
Venezuela when she and her father ap-
peaTed before him.
