’ GIRL FOUND WOMAN DYING IN CELLAR. Anna Zahn, Domestic Employ- ed by Mrs. Fannie Mayer, Expired Before She Could Give an Explanation. Mystery surrounds the death of Anna Zahn, @ domestic employed by Mrs. Fannie Mayer, at No. 308 West One Hundred and Twenty-second street. She was found dying In the cellar of the house about 8 o'clock this morning and expired before she could give any ¢x- planation. The police and Coroner's office unite in the bellef that some corrosive pol- son caused the girl's death, but no traces of any poison were found in the house, nor was there any apparent rea- son for the gtri to kill herself. Miss Zahn was about thirty years old. She came to this country from Hungary about three years ago, and for the past year and a half was employed by Mrs. Mayer. She left the house early this morning to do some marketing. She did not fin- ish her work, and search was made for her. Miss Carrie Mayer found the young woman in the cellar, groaning and unconscious. Two physicians were called, but the girl died in a few mo- ments. There were traces of acid burns on the girl's mouth, but the doctors sald the marks were not those of carbolic acid. Coroner's Physician Jackson or- dered the body taken to the Harlem Morgue, where an autopsy will be made. Mrs. Mayer says that the girl was very religious and had no men friends.

MAGISTRATE HITS MOTHERS-IN-LAW They Interfere Too Much in the Affairs of Their Married Daughters and Sons, Nau- mer Says, A the | “Mothers-in-law interfere too much in their married daughters and sons families and break up many homes, Magistrate Naumer. This is the reproof administered to Mrs. Marla La Raroe in the Myrtle avenue court to-day, She was summoned there by her son-in-law, James A. Caw- son, treasurer of the Bijlu Theatre, Brooklyn, for “annoying” him. Lawson Hives at No, 612 Pacific etreet. Mrs. La Raroe lives at No. 1571-2 Nelson street.

They ascribed these con- ditions to the persistent use of alcoholic Nquors. For the deferise Capt. Miles O'Rellly, of the Adams street station, and other captains testified that Murphy was a mod policeman. In his own behalf Murphy admitted that he was not as strong physically as he might be, but due to the character of Dr. mer, G. Coog, L, W. explained that the defendant lived with Mr. and Mrs, Steers as com- panion to Mrs, Steers. Mr. Steers left by will all ais property to his widow. Almost immediately after his death Mrs, Steers conveyed to the defendant the real estate named in the present suit. The conveyance, he declares, was pro- cured by undue influence and duress, and the consideration given was only $1. Miss Steers-Birdsall denies undue tne fluence and declares that for many years she lived with the Steerses as their daughter and that previous to his death Mr. Steers had decided that she was to have the real estate, and had so instructed his wife.
