POLICE AID STRICKEN PAIR

Chicago, Jan. 4.-(AP)-Authori
Monday sought the reasons why Mary
Roth, %. nurse maid, hanged her
two small charges and herself in the
John H. Heindel home in fashionable
suburban River Forest.
The blonde domestic, who cared
for the children with devotion which
sometimes, the children's parents said.
bordered upon jealous insanity, sus-
pended nine-months-old George by
the neck to the side of his crib.
The elder brother, John b. Heindel,
4, was found hanged with short
piece Of rope in the doorway.
Miss Roth hanged herself In clos
ct of the basement.
Mr.. and Mrs. Heindel, who were
attending a bridge party Saturday
night. found the bodies after police
helped them break into the barred
and locked home.
They called the officers when. fall
ing to arouse anyone to let them IN,
they detected an odor Of gas at the
kitchen window. Bursting in. they
found gas escaping from the kitchen
range. Bedsheets had been hung about
to arrest draughts. Their frantic
search for the children ended at the
nursery door.
Police said they believed the nurse
maid carried the sleeping children IN
to the gas-filled kitchen where she
left them until they were stupified OF
dead. Then she tied up the bodies.
The grief stricken parents were a.
a loss to account for the tragedy.
Miss Roth, they said. loved the chill
dren with such intensity that she re-
fused to leave them during their wax
ing hours. She even slept IN an ad-
Joining room. Upon occasions she ap-
peared Jealous when the mother fon-
died the children.
During the past several days. Hem
del said, she had seemed depressed,
but inasmuch as she refused to con-
fide her troubles, he assumed they
were personal affairs. He said there
was no reason for her to believe she
was to be discharged.
DR.. Francis j. Gerty Of the psycno-
pathic hospital, advanced the theory
that the maids affection for the cnu-
dren had developed into form OF IN
sanity.
