TRIPLE TRAGEDY
IN PITTSBURG
Father Finds Wife and Daughter
Bathed in Blood.

PITTsBURG, Penn. Nov. THE
body Of his wife lying on her bed
cold in death. with her throat cut
from ear to ear. the body Of his
daughter lying on the door In . pool
OF her own blood. with her head al
most severed from the neck. and his
Eon-in-law. George Hartzell. squeezed
and cramped in trunk. with an OPP
en- bottle OF chloroform to his nose,
and breathing his last was the grue-
some sight that met the eyes Of VIII
liam Casey as be returned home
from a republican publication meet
ing late.
The triple tragedy has caused =
sensation In the city, and the opinion
or all who have made an Investiga-
ton OF It Is that Hartzel murdered
the two women. and then committed
suicide himself. Near the body OF
the daughter was found a razor, and
it was this weapon that he had used
in numbering his mother-in-law. and
her daughter. and the open bottle OF
chloroform 50 arranged in the trunk
that he could inhale II shows con-
clusiveiy, II Is said. that he commit
ed suicide afterwards. The theory
that he murdered the two women,
and then killed himself is also fur
Their carried out by the information
secured by the police that he had
purchased chlorohorm a few days ago
at drug store. He gave az his rea-
son at the time that there were some
dogs that had given him considerable
trouble In the vicinity OF his resi-
dence, and that II was for the pur-
pose Of disposing OF them that he
wanted the drug.
What prompted Hartzel 70 com
init double murder, and then take
his own life Ia not known. He was
charged in last December with the
crime Of having murdered his wife.
but the prosecution was unable 70
convict him. because OF the refusal
OF his motheF-in-law to testify against
him. The theory is advanced that he
may have worried over this, until he
became mentally deranged. but there
are many who are Of the opinion that
he was perfectly sane. and that there
was back OF II a motive which viii be
revealed in the course OF the Inyesti-
cation Of the case.
