She had beeng strangled with a short end of rope, backed with a knife, burned be- yond recognition, and thrust careless- ly out of doors like so much rubbish. Identification was possible only by shreds of clothing and fragments of jewelry, but there was abundant evi-' dence of how the murder had been done. Around the neck were the charred fibres of manila rope burnt into the flesh. The apartment reeked with kerosene. There were oil stains in front of the newly-painted fire- board that had an Open grate. The girl‘s clothing and hair had been saturated with kerosene, the fire- board had been removed and the body thrust up the chimney, standing. When the match was touched~ to her, she burned like a torch. Probably the murderer had hoped for an opportun- ity to remove the body under cover of night, but when the girl’s disappear- ance raised such an uproar and he began to suspect he was shadowed, he had packed up and fled. A neighbor living on the same floor of an adjoining house noticed the lumpy bundle outside his window and thinking it- refuse, poked it 03 the fire escape into the back yard with a broom handle. The bundle moved obâ€" stinately and fell with a crash. His curiosity aroused, the neighbor hur- ried down stairs for the janitor to in- \estigate. Ruth Wheeler was fifteen years of age, the youngest of three sisters bred by their mother, a dressmaker, to self- support. Both the elder sisters are stenographers, and Ruth had just been graduated from a business col- 989 The girl had been carefully brought up. She was never on the, streets at night, and her failure to come home for 24 hours without explanation meant more than a caprice. The next morning her sisters, Pearl and Ade- laide, in serious concern, went to the college and learned that the following postcard had been turned over to her: “Dear Madam: Please call in refer- ence to position of stenographer at residence of' the secretary. (Signed) A. Wolter, 122 East 105th street.’ Investigation at the address given soon showed that Wolter, whom his landlady described as a sickly, white- faced youth of about twenty, with flashy clothes and elaborately curled hair, had left the apartment where he had lived with his wife, earlier in the same day. He received many calls from young girls, said the land- lady, and she had particularly noticed that the last one who called was fresh-' ordinary run of them. With Wolter fled, the detectives waited for his wife. When she ap- peared they trailed her to a corner, where she met a man answering Wol- ter’ 3 description. He was immediate- ly arrestedp taken back to the room he had vacated, and searched. At first he denied writing postal cards to the schools, but when detectives turned up answers from business schools, addressed to him at various house numbers, he admitted the cor- reSpondence, but could not explain it. Before a magistrate he had nothing to say, but to others he admitted that the woman with whom he was living is not his wife. He met her shortly after coming to this country from Germany two years ago, he said, they fell in love and set up housekeeping.‘ Last summer he and she had worked at Irvington-on-the-Hudson at a boarding-house. city last month and since then the woman had supported him by working in a. laundry. The parents of Albert Wolter, when found, told in broken English of the . difficulties their son had brought upon them. “He was always crazy about wo- men,” said the mother. “From the time he was a little boy it was always . dancing, pleasure, women with him.” women, H~+â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€" For Peterboro apartment of Albert Wolter, the man’ They came to this - NEW YORK'YOUNG LADY’S BODY ON A FIRE ESCAPE ©â€"-,â€"-â€"-â€"-â€"~ Mr. McFadYenv Was Remembered His Pupils Made a Pleasing Presenta- _ tion on Thursdav 1 ‘ Thursday afternoon the scnolars of Mr. D.

Robert Henderson. the young Englishman, who is in custody here, will stand trial for the murder of Margaret McPherson, near Norwood, in February last.

Margaret McPherson has since ”died, and the other one is not ex» pected to recover from the injuries she received. Mt. Kerr is appearing on behalf of the prisoner, and it is learned that his defence will be that the young man was insane at the time, and is yet incapable of realiz- ing the seriousness of his crime.
