Yow A DOUBLE MURDER AND SUICIDE. Banker Howe and His Wife Killed at Their Bome In Wenona—The Mur. derer Commits Suleide. CnicAco, Nov. 12.—A special des- pateh from Wenona, Ill, says: This village 1s in a fever of excitement over a double murder, followed by the sui- gide of the assassin this morning. Tre victims of the brutal assassina- tion are Peter Howe, senior member of the banking firm of Howe & Son, of this place, ard his wife, the former aged 78 years and the latter 69. They lived mn a large two-story frame house, sit- nated about half a mile from the town. The only other occupant of the house was a domestic, At 6 o'clock this morning, as she came down stairs, the light of a lamp which she carried fell through the open door of Mr. and Mrs, Howe's bedroom and revealed a ghastly sight, The walls and bed clothes were covered with blood, and lying on the floor was a car coupling pin, to which adhered hair and clotted blood. She ran to com- municate the terrible story to a Mr. Irwin, Mr, Howe's son-in-law. The latter at once suspected Charles Burk- hart of committing the deed, and a he resided, with his wife, over a gro cery store, situated in the cipal business block of the town. Burkhart was observed walking up and down the hallway, apparently in great agitation. It was not long until he discovered that sentinels had been posted outside, and he went into his bed room, yrocured a razor. and cut his throat from ear to ear, and was a dead man side of five minutes, His wife, who had been in the adjoin- ing room, heard his dying groans When she reached the room, he re- quested her, as best he could, to *‘care for the baby.” The cause of this terri- ble deed is attributed to a petiy spite on the part of Burkhart. The domestic in the house of the handsome lass of 19, and Burkhart’s to come and live with him, but she re- fused .to do so, jections, He therefore concluded to murder them.
