This morning a man named Steve K. Wilsko applied at a board ing house at 1412 Olive street for a room, fiually engaging a room for a week, paying therefor in advance. He then left the house, returning late this afternoon and going, in stead of to his own room, to oue ou the same floor occupied by Miss Jo sie Stevenson. Late to night a man ealled at the house and asked to see Miss Stevenson. Going to ber room to call her, the landlady found the door open. Miss Stevenson lying on the floor dead with a bullet hole through her forehead. Wilsko was ou the bed, some six feet dis- tant, shot twice through the heart. | Between the two on the floor was a revolver, all five of the chambers of which were unloaded. The first theory was that a mar | der had been followed by suicide. | but after examination of the room) and the wounds the police say neith | er of the dead persons could have | fired the fatal The two ad | ditional shots from the were fired at the man, but missed | Although there were several persons was shots revolver | in the house, on the same floor, aud the one above, all afternoon, no one heard any shooting or unusual noise The mau who called for Miss Ste | venson has disappeared aud cannot be found His name has been as eertained to be H.
