BEAUTIFUL 28-YEAR-0LO DAUGHTER
OF GERMAN MINISTER OF NAVY
LIVED IN SECLUSlON.

FlClAlS INTERNED TN JAPAN
AFTER FALL TSIMG-TAU.

TOXIC, April l3.-Japanese authorities
assert that there IL no evidence that the
The recent murder of Mrs. Irma Won Sal
dern daughter Of Vice Admiral Eduard
Won Cappelle, the German minister of
navy, was an act Of vengeance upon the
German naval chief, and that the murder
was committe undoubtedly by a Japanese
burglar. The fact that the crime oc-
Cured 1T n time when Germany's unre-
stricied submarine warfare was holding
world interest, the authorities declare. was
merely a coincidence. Nevertheless. the
tragedy Is widely discussed in diplomatic
circles.
lrma Won Saldern was q beautiful wo-
man Of twenty-eight years who passed her
time in seclusion near the German pris-
oners' camp at Fukuoka, the southernmost
island of Kyushu. Her husband. Captain
Siegfried Won Saldern, was one Of the most
prominent German officers taken prison.
er by the japanese at the surrender of the
German fortress al Tsing-tau.
Won Saldern was a member of a well
known German family with a seat at Des-
sau and his marriage with the daughter
OF the German minister was q happy one.
La China, Captain Won Saldern was an IN
innate friend of Governor Won Waldeck.
the commander of Tsing-tau fortress. AT,
ter the capitulation Mrs. Won Saldren. with
her two children, followed her husband to
Japan and rented n fashionable Japanese
house near the compound in which her
husband was an officer prisoner.
There she lived quietly, rarely leaving
her children except 10 visit her husband
and some Of his officer friends during
their illness. A few weeks ago she sug-
gested that she leave Japan with one of
her boys, to further his education and try
to return to Germany. Her husband urged
her 10 remain. She consented.
One morning, when q domestic entered.
she found her mistress stretched upon the
floor of Il bedroom lifeleSs. An electric
cord bound tightly about her neck showed
that she had been sirangled to death. The
police reconstructed the crime in tins way:
The assassin entered armed with 4 poiyn-
ard or short sword and stabbed her. When
she became unconscious or helpless. he cut
the electric wire or cord which connected
the lamp with u wall fixture and making
= moose, choked the woman to death.
There were evidences that burglary wu~
committed.
The next act Of the tragedy came three
days later. twenty four hours after the
funeral of Mrs. Won Saldern. Captain Won
Saldsrn was inconSolable. The fact that
he had urged his wife to remain proved
upon his mind and. apparently he did moi
forgive himself. About the noun of his
wife's murder, he detached from the wall
of hiS house an electric cord similar to
that with which she was strangled, fixed il
To the chandelier in his saloon and com
mitted suicide by hanging.
The press maintains silence concerninc
the tragedy. The police are making ever1
effort 10 discover the murderer.
