Police Say Jennie Lar- sen,DanishEmigrant, Was Murdered on the Day of Her Arrival. HER UNCLE A SUSPECT. Louis Applerod, suspected of the mur- der of his niece, Jennie Larsen, just over from Denmark, was given the “third de. gree” in the East One Hundred and Fourth street police station to-day. In- snector Kane, Capt. Michael Smith and the latter's detectives had him under fire in an attempt to get a full explana- tion of the crime. Applerod was feeling better when he was led in for the star chamber session, but he was wiser than before he sleot. To the first question he replied: “Now, you fellows can go plum to —. You can't get anything out of me. That settles it," And after that he would not open his mouth to answer a question or say word. He was then arraigned in the Harlem Police Court, formally charged with murder and was held for the Cor- oner without ball. It has been found that Applerod, who is fifty-three years old, and whose wif was sent to an Insane asylum several weeks ago, had not worked since last Thursday, when he went to the steamer Hecla to meet his niece, who was found in. No interest was taken in either until! the police yesterday found the girl dead on a bed in a little room next to the kitchen, Her body was mutilated and her skull crushed. The throat showed unmistakable signs of finger marks as though she had also been strangled. She had evidently been dead since last ‘Thursday. ‘applerod was in the same apartment and in a dazed state. The police say he had probably attempted to kill himself, as the gas was escaping. It was the fumes which had attracted the attention of the police and led to the discovery of the crime. “I don't know her. I never saw her before. I don't know how she came here, Who is she?’ were Applerod’s replies when firat interrogated. When he was asked why he turned on the gas he sald: “I want to dle. to kill myself." Under the bed the police found a round file, the sharp point of which was covered with blood, ‘This, they argue, was used in mutilating the body. In the corner of the kitchen was found a bloody axe. This, they say, was the weapon that crushed in the skull. The motive, If Applerod did it, ts not known. He and hia niece were in the flat alone. What transpired there only Applerod can tell. Tate in the afternoon Applerod was arraigned before the Coroner, Patrolman. John E. Wolfe, of the Past One Hun- dred and Fourth Street Station, sald the murdered woman's name was Juliette Larson, not Jennie Larson. ———— —— GRAND CONCOURSE FETE.
