FIND WOMAN DEAD AFTER THREE DAYS Miss Mary Lofiise Tenney, 35, Believed Victirn of Heart Attack. Miss Mary Louise Tenney, 35-year-old employe of the Loans and Currency Division of the Treasury Department, was found dead in her third-floor apartment, at 1321 Fairmont street, shortly before noon today. Dr. I. Rut- koski of the Emergency Hospital staff said the woman had probably been dead for three days and that death was probably due to heart disease. Discovery of the woman's body was brought about when Treasury -Depart- ment officials by whom she was em- ploved missed her from her desk for the past three days. Falling to receive any word from her, they notified the woman’s brother-in-law, Joseph E. Mann, an employe of the Bureau of Inq ternal Revenue and living at 18 Evarts &treet northeast. Mann immediately hastened to his sister-in.law’s apartment -and, unable to receive any response to repeated knocks at her door, summoned the man- ager of the apartment house and en- tered with a pass key. The woman's body was found in the bathroom sitting in an upright position, clad only in her night dress, a kimona and a pair of slippers. According to Mr. Mann, other mem- bers of the family were known to have been affected by heart disease and he expressed little surprise when informed of the cause of the woman's death. ‘The dead woman is survived by a brother, Paul, who lives in Pitts- burgh, and two married sisters, Mrs, Alice T. Mann and Mrs. Dorothy Selig- man, both of the Evarts street address.
