MURDER
 MYSTERY
 PUZZLES
Especial from United Press )

Houston, Tex, March 1.-The po- lice were called upon today to solve one of the most puzzling murder mysteries in the history of Houston, following the discovery late last night of five dead bodies piled in a heap in the home of Gus Schultze. The bodies were those of two men, a woman and two babies. It is be- Heved all had been killed with an axe. The walls of the room were spattered with blood and the skull of one victim was crushed. The vic tims had been dead for several days.
 The body of Mrs. Schultze was nude and it was first thought that the murders might have been com mitted by her husband, but the fact that Schultze was evidently the vic- tim of a blow on the head leads the police to believe that all were killed by an outsider who, after the deed was committed, locked all doors to the house and escaped.

The enlistment of new capital on large scale has been recognized as requisite for the great improvements announced by the railroad companies. Much interest therefore attaches to the outcome ot the expected offerings. The prices at which they have been offered testify to the remaining difficulties in secur- ing capital Prices are low and rates are higher than in preceding cpochs nf financing The announcement to- day of the foreign reception of bond offerings of subsidiary corporation was encouraging The stock market was dull most of the time.
