MISTAKEN FROM BURGLAR.
Woman Shot and Instantly Killed in
New York Home.

New York, Sept. 9.-Mistaken for n
burglar. Mrs. Louis Gels was shot and
instantly killed in the hallway of the
house in which she lived on East one
Hundred and Eighteenth street by
Kurt Weisilog, a boarder. The dead
woman's husband, Louis Gels, also
was struck in the arm by a bullet from
Weisnog's revolver as he stood behind
a hall roorway dring at the supposed
intruders In the Gels apartment. Weis-
fog was arrested on charge of homi-
eide.
Burglars recently visited the house
i'm which the tragedy occurred and
last night the Geises and Weisflog
sat up with neighbors in an adjoining
apartment to watch for an expected
temperance of the marauders. Noises
I'm the Gels apartment of an early
hour led to the suspicion that bur
glars had entered it. Mr.. and Mrs.
Gels entered their rooms To investigate
and Weisfog hid behind hallway
door. When the latter saw two forms
rush out of the Gels doorway in the
darkness he apparently jumped at the
conclusion that they were burglars and
opened fire. The first bullet struck
and wounded Gels. Welsflog. who is
a youth of 10, did not hear Gels cry
that the marksman was making mis-
take and continued firing. His Sec
ond bullet struck Mrs. Gels in the
heart and she fell dead.
