DEATH OF TWO BROTHERS
Authorities Suspect That Men Were
Given Poison.

District Attorney Simons of Wayne
county, Pa, and Justice of the
Peace Smith of White Mills, Pa,
had some physicians perform an au-
topsy on the bodies of the two weak
minded brothers, Edward and Charles
Kunkle, who are suspected of having
been poisoned. The body of Edward,
aged AZ, and Charles, aged 40, We're
found, the first in the barn and the
second under a bed.
The brothers were farmhands and
lived with their 70-year-old father,
Frank Kunkle, who is also a farm
hand. When the bodies were found by
a domestic, the father manifested so
much Indifference that suspicious were
aroused. 1t is known that the men
gave much trouble to their father and
that recently he was heard to remark
that he wished he was able to place
his boys in some institution.
It seems that It was hours after the
body of Edward Kunkle was found
that the body of Charles was discov-
cred under the bed. In the meantime
a local constable had searched the
house and he asserted that when he
did so there was no body under the
he'd
