Kills "Friend" And Herself.

Cleveland, O., Sept. 26.-Because of
efforts by her mother to force her to
abandon her acquaintanceship with
Paul Mueller, friend of her husband,
Mrs. Lawrence Distrel Saturday shot
and killed Mueller and then turned
her revolver upon herself, inflicting a
wound from which she died shortly
afterwards.
The tragedy occurred early in the
morning and was discovered by Distel,
special officer in a city bank, who
was aroused by the sound of shots. He
rushed to his wife's room, where he
found the dead body of Mueller with
Mrs. Distel lying at the feet of the
corpse in a dying condition.
It was at first believed by the police
that it was case of double murder
and Diste1 was arrested, but he was
released later. Mrs. Distel was As
years old and was the mother of two
children. Mueller was also married
and had two children.
