NO REASON GIVEN
John l.. Krucker Has Not Told Why
He Shot and Killed His Di-
vorccd Wife.

Up to last night John e. Krucker,
who on Sunday afternoon shot and
instantly killed his divorced wife,
Dagmar Krucker, and then put a
couple OF lead pellets into his own
head, had made no statement as he
had promised since the murder, OF
why he committed the crime. His
physician stated that his Jaw was still
very sore and that too much talking
might inJure the left eye through
sympathy with the left optic which
was shot out when Krucker turned
the revolver upon himself after he
had killed his ex-wife.
1t is not probable that Krucker will
make a statement of any kind now
that he has secured an attorney to
take care OF his case.
The shooting of Mrs Krucker Sun
day afternoon was witnessed by no
one except the little daughter who was
in the room at the time. Krucker
called to see his ex-wife during the
afternoon, while she was at the home
OF her father. What transpired be-
tween them is not as yet known. but
some time after Krucker entered the
room, shots were heard and when the
room was entered Mrs. Krucker was
lying dead and Krucker had shot him
self twice, both balls striking him in
the head and one of them destroying
the sight of the right eye. He was
taken to st. Joseph's Hospital and his
divorced wife's body to the undertake
er. AS soon as Krucker RECEIVERS suf-
ficiently he will be taken to the coun-
ty Jail and locked up.

POSTAL SAVINGS INvIOLATE
Under No Circumstances, Not Even
II War With Germany Occurred,
Would They BE Interferrcd with.

The severance of diplomatic rela-
ton with Germany on the Third in
slant caused some alarm among for
eign-born depositors in a few cities
lest their postal savings deposits
might be seized by the government
in the event of war. Withdrawals in
creased temporarily at a few post
offices, while in other places deposits
ran unusually heavy. Apprehension
as to the safety of the postal savings
deposits was effectively allayed by
the following announcement of the
State Department on the Sth instant:
at having been reported to him
that there is anxiety in some quarters
on the part of persons residing in
this country who are the subjects of
foreign states lest their bank deposits
or other property should be seized in
the event of war between the United
States and a foreign nation, the Pres
ident authorizes the statement that
all such fears are enirely unfounded.
"The Government of the United
States will in no circumstances take
advantage of state of war to take
pOSstSSlOH VI w WHICH
ternational understandings and the
recognized law of the land give 1t no
just claim or title. 1t will scrupu-
lously respect all private rights alike
