silently at the group of women, and
then retired to his room, saying he felt
Ill. Shortly afterward he called for his
wife, and she went to him. AS Mrs.
Croselmire entered the room her hus-
band whipped out .3s-calibire re-

Croselmire turned the weapon upon
himself and sent the remaining bullets
into his head and heart, dying in

aroused the other members of the
family. and they ran into the hall just

that the house was dark, but noticed
footprints in the snow leading up to
the front steps. The policemen imme-
diately suspected that there were bur-
glars in the house and set to work to
find them They noticed the young
man near the house and called to him
to stop Instead of doing so he started
on a run, with the men following him.
The chase lasted about a mile, and
because Patrolman Hess could not keep
up the chase any longer G. Bartram
Woodruff, a society man, lawyer and
former Princeton sprinter, took the
officers revolver and Joined the two
others.
When the burglar reached an open
lot the firing began. Both Brogan and
Woodruff emptied their revolvers with
out hitting the youth. Miller also dis
charged his gun, and it was while re-
loading it that Sergeant Hiney, who
had taken a different road from his
companions, grabbed the youth from
the back. During the firing Hiney was
in back of the youth and In danger of
being hit by the officers bullets.
Miller's appearance is in his favor.
He does not look like a criminal. He
win be arraigned tomorrow.
