Alleged Motive of Kark Hau. an American Charged with Killing Mother-in-Law.

DEED DONE IN GERMANY

THE ACCUSED IS NOW . BEING HELD IN LONDON FOR EXTRADITION PAPERS BRIEF STORY OF THE AFFAIR. Publishers' Press .

Baden-Baden, Germany, Nov. 9. Karl Hau, alias Stan, the lawyer of Washington, D. C, who was arrested In London and held for extradition, is wanted by the local police on the charge of murdering his wife's mother, Fran Molitor. The motive of the alleged crime appears to have been insane greed of money. Frau Molitor,

who was wealthy, refused many times to comply with Man's requests for money, having given her daughter a considerable dowry and arranged that she should inherit part of her fortune, . 'When Hau married Lena Molitor six years ago she was 25 years of age, and Hau, a student, was Id. Their engagement seemingly was against Krau Molitor's wishes. Immediately after their marriage the couple went to America and Hau attained a good position In Washington as a lawyer. Hau, his wife and their daughter, 3 years old, came to Germany last summer to visit Frau Molitor. Mrs. Hau and the child stayed several months at the villa Molitor. Hau arriver there laer via Constantinople. Visitors to the villa observed that the best relationship existed between the Haus and

Frau Molitor. A fortnight ago Hau left BadenBaden to return to America, and his relatives thought he was either on board ship or had already arrived in the United States. Hau, it is now claimed, some days after he left Baden-Baden, sent Frau Molitor a fake telegram dated Paris, asking her to go and see her married daughter there. T,he falsification was discovered and the inquiries ot the postal authorities with the view of discover

ing tne identity or the sender or the message were still going on when the murder was committed. During the evening of Nov. 6 Frau Molitor received a telephone message at her home in Baden-Baden asking her to go to the postoffice and get a parcel which had reached there for her. Frau Molitor, accompanied by her young daughter, started at once for the postoffice and while passing through a quiet street she was shot from behind and fell dead with a bullet through her heart. The man who committed the murder was described as being of medium height and seemingly under 40 years old. He wore a beard, but it is stated that it was a false one. Hau, after leaving Baden, sent his wife and child to London and stopped at Frankfort, where he attracted attention owing to a long beard which he wore. This, however, is now asserted to have been purchased from a hair dresser at Frankfort. Widow Slain by Burglar. Johnston. Pa., Nov. 9. Mrs. Catherine Stauffer, a widow, was found murdered in her bed at Lambertsville, a small village in Somerset county. There was a bullet hole in her head. It is believed Mrs. Stauffer was murdered .for money which she Is supposed to have possessed. couple of grandchildren were living ivith her, one of whom, a girl, is almost grown up. The girl was awakened by the presence of a man in her room. He tried to choke and chloroform her, but she made her escape and aroused the neighbors. When they arrived on the scene the man was gone. Pistol Duel. Ft

Money, Miss., Nov. 9. J."D. Money, Jr., nephew of United States Senator Money, emptied a revolver at L. J. Henderson, a well known merchantplanter, killing him almost instantly, and by dodging and moving about during the entire time the tragic affair was taking place, escaped six shots fired at him by his victim. Those acquainted with the trouble say that differences over a land deal precipitated the shooting. Witnesses say both men started shooting about the same time. Miners Get Increase. Blsbee, A. T., Nov. 9. All miners employed by mining companies at Blsbee and Tombstone have received notice of a raise in wages to date from Nov. 1. Tire scale has been advanced 2o cents a day; all around. Miners now receive $3.75 a day, shaftmen $4.23 and first motion hoisting engineers $,.25. The new scale means the payment of half a million dollars more each year by mining companies. Campbell to Return to Ohio. Hamilton. O., Nov. 9. The announcement Is made here that former Governor James E. Campbell, who was rivfeated for congress Tuesday by J. E. Harding, will probably give up his New York home and return to Ohio. He is thinking seriously of resuming practice of law in Hamilton or Dayton.

"Capt. Careless" Gennett. The Whitney productions of musical shows have for years been famous for their lavish scenic productions, and beautiful and extravagant costuming, notable examples of which were Rob Roy, "Dolly Vardon, and Love's Lottery, but "Captain Careless" represents; a far greater investment than any other production which has ever

borne this popular trade mark, and is unquestionably one of the heaviest, handsomest and most massive scenic productions ever given a musical show. John E. llenshaw. the famous comedian who for the past two seasons has appeared in the leading comedy role or star parts of "A Chinese Honeymoon," and "The Sho-Gun," is the star of "Captain Careless," and according to the press of the different cities, in which the company has appeared, has scored by far, the greatest success of his career. Mr. Henshaw will appear here in "Captatin Careless" at the Gennett this afternoon and evening. "Earl and the Girl" Gennett. Eddie Foy, one of the most popular

men of the stage, and who is regarded by many theater goers as the funniest man behind the footlights, will appear at the Gennett next Monday night, with "The JEarl and the Girl." The Messrs. Shubert have exercised great care in the selection of a company for this season's presentation. The principals are all well known favorites and the chorus is made up of particularly pretty show girls. The musical numbers are many and replete with catchy songs. and dainty dances. "The Earl and the Girl" has had a phenomenal success at the Casino, New York, and was spoken of by the New York Press, as a hit of the most emphatic kind. The production is a stupendous 'one requiring three special CO-foot cars for its transportation.

IPublishers' Press New York, Nov. 9. One woman is dead, a man in a hospital is suffering from severe burns and 2,000 persons fled from their homes in panic, as a result of a series of incendiary fires, in the two blocks bounded by Sixtieth and Sixty-first streets and Columbus and West End avenues. Scores of persons whose lives were endangered by the conflagration were rescued by firemen. In all there were five fires, each one of them incendiary. The woman who lost her life was Mrs. Caroline Swain, 70 years old. She lived at 107 West Sixtieth street, adjoining one of the buildings which was fired. She died of heart failure induced by fright. Adrian Tompkins is in a hospital with his hands and feet severely burned, as a result of climbing down a redhot fire escape, ile is in a serious condition. The rapidly succeeding fires, the crowds of evicted tenants and the terrifying rumors spread through the neighborhood, with the constant appearance and reappearance of the fire engines and the bigs squads of police, raised the people throughout the vicinity to a high pitch of excitement. Frank Morris of Boston, a vaudeTllle performer, was arrested on suspicion of starting the fires. The police allege that at each of the fires tenants said when they fled from their apartments Morris was the first person they met. The property loss is estimated at $20,000. In a fire in an East Side tenement house on Madison street a woman and her four children were suffocated.
