Shocking Crime ca tbs East Side ses-
den Of Newark City
VICTIMS OF FOUL PLAY
An Aged Man and BIS Aged Wife
Fearfully Mudlated In Their Home
by Fiends Who Have Well Covered
Up Their Tracks and Their 1den-
tity.

A case Of double murder found IN
an East Side house in New York
Sunday is one of the most shocking
in details of any since the Guiden-
|suppe dismemberment and the Jack
the-Ripper" series of crimes. Isaac
Futterman, so years, and his wife,
Rachael, 72 years old, we're found
dead in their room, their bodies ter
ribly mutilated.
The police believed the aged cou-
PIE was practically tortured to death
and in the absence Of any well-es-
tablished motive for such crime
think the Futtermans were victims Of
a religious maniac.
Futterman was retired manufac-
turer, who had accumulated a small
fortune, but always had refused to
leave the East Side neighborhood
where he settled when he came from
Russia many years ago. He was a
jealous church worker and aided in
founding the synagogue in his dis
trict, which ne and his wife attend
| ed.
The couple lived alone. Their
three children dwelt in other parts Of
the city. One CT these Aaron Futter-
man, superintendent Of a brass fac
tory, discovered the crime on his
weekly visit to his parents.
The fathers body lay on e, sofa,
and the mothers on a bed. Each was
only partially dressed. There were
deep gashes across both faces and
bodies and the eyes Of both were ter
ribly mutilated, one of the mans
being torn out from its socket.
The mans abdomen was terribly
slashed, and there were cuts runriug
lengthwise from head to foot. The
nature Of the mutilation led the po-
lice to believe that it had been be-
gun while the Futtermans were alive
and that death had been actually
caused by blows over the head, which
fractured both skulls.
The bodies bore finger prints,
which the police experts took photo
graphs OF. A small neck bag, in
which Mrs. Futterman is said to have
carried money and jewelry, could not
be found. The police, however,
scout robbery as the motive for the
crime.
Aaron Futterman said he did not
know that his fathe: had an enemy.
His father kept practically all his
money in a bank. The police believe
that he murder occurred several days
ago, as decomposition had set it.
Neighbors do not remember having
seen the aged couple since January 8.

will also send him a donation from
the Rock Hill Buggy company OF SIS
for the general expense fund.

Farmers union pledge. In order that
these may be obtained promptly. ]
have arranged with a printer to get
them up at s2s5o per 1000; $3.50
per 500, and so cents per 100 for e
less quantity.
"The State superintendent may
need a few more copies Of the Rock
Hill plan for his correspondence
with the various county committees.
I have asked the printer to keep the
type up, and If any Of these blanks
are wanted they can be had at the
same rate as that Of the Farmers S
union pledge.
Hoping to hear from you as early
as possible, I am, yours very truly,
81. G. Anderson"

STEAMER OFFICERS

Officers on Alaska Iines Soon Make Themselves Part of Peo-
 pie Whom They Serve

Alaska steamship companies are very fortunate in securing the finest men to man their ships. Some of the good deeds recorded tO the credit of the navigatOrs of northern waters will always be re- membcred. For instance, a re- cent kind act of Capt. John \. |O'Bricn, of the steamer Victoria, won for that mariner the friend ship of one entire cily-NOmc. The Daily Nugget, of June IS, has the following article descriptive of Capt. O'Bricn's thought fulncss $ and respect:
 "Capi. John O'Brirn, of tn" steamer Victoria, proved io many yesterday afternoon that he has q heart as big as an elephants 's pounding away lik" an engine in
 his left breast.
 "Wh"n the launch came along side with w. ". Lawrence seated in Norris chair, he had Ihc same Gn in inc lee side of inc ship, hen ri@g"h up sling and hOiSlcd Inc invalid lO the deck. Supcrin- tending Inc work in person, and seeing that Mr. Lawrence and his wife had every attention. "I.at"r in ihc evening. when the caSkri containing tn" remains of ! Mrs. M. D. McCumhcr reached the ship, he gave orders to one of his officers to lower the flags to half mast the minute the box contain ing the deceased commenced it's journey from the lighter to the steamer, and to leave the flags al half mast until the steamer was under way"
