The bodies of two young Frensli ladies were found the other moruing in the park adjoining the house of Count Coudenhove, at Ottensheiru, about an hour's distance from Linz. The circumstances attending the discovery leave no doubt as to suicide in both cases. Two small five-chambered revolvers were found next to them, and bullet wounds on both. They had been staying for tbe last few days at Linz, and proceeded on the night of the suicide to Ottensheim. They were complete strangers in that part of the I country, and the whole affair is so far surrounded by mystery." A later account states :—" The circumstances attending the double suicide are of a painfully dramatic , nature.
