J., Jan. 20—Mrs. Ida Mary Ogrewalle, a young German ‘woman, of Oakland, a small village near here, killed her four-year-old son Charles with an axe last night and then cut off his head with a carving knife, She followed this with an attack on a big brown dog, the special pet of her son, which had tried in its dumb way to save the child from her fury. ‘The animal was stretched dead at her feet with one blow of the axe and It, too, was decapitated. Then the lunatic placed the bodies side by side on the dining-room floor, arranged the two heads at the boy's feet and went up- stairs, where she put her children to bed. ‘This was the other three fearful sight whioh Qwrewalle, a fireman ©, Potter Company, at Pomp- Lades, when he returned at 11 in the night from a long search Job which would sult his wife bet- 1 the one he had.

' 5 PAIR LIVED HAPPILY FOR A WHIL E. Frank EHan {s an ironworker. He married the woman who killed her children and herself ten years ago. Up to two weeks ago they lived at and Anna, aged seven, and a little boy, Frank, aged four. Frequent quarrels about the attentions Elian paid to other women, n fs said, resulted in a separation. While Elian was at work his wife moved the furniture from the flat In Avenue A to three rooms she had rented on. the top floor of the East Sixty-fourth street house, She-took the three-chil- dren with her. Flian returned to his home that night to find empty rooms. None of: neighbors could tell him where his wife hed gone, but by tracing through the expressman who had transferred the furniture he discoverte her. She refused to give up the children upon his demand, and a week: - he kidnapped the little boy from the hallway of the house. After that Mrs. Blian kept the children locked inside. When a out she took the little ones with her. Elian, with his son, went to lee! with bis sister, Mrs. Antonio Vicea, at No, 605 East Bleventh street. HE DEMANDED THE CHILDREN. He called on his wife yesterday afternoon and told her that pgs have to give up the little girls because she was not a fit’ person to have charge of them. He said that she would have to surrender the furniture also, She re- fused either to give him the children or the furniture, and he said he would go to Harlem Police Court and get a warrant for her arrest. “1 can have the Gerry Society take the childrep,” the neighbors heard him say. “If you don’t give them to me I'll have them taken away and sent to an institution.” Mrs, Bitan slammed the door in bis face and he went away, going to Harlem Court, where he procured a summons, He returned to the honse at 7 o'clock last night, served the summons and aswired his wife that if she did not appear in court he would come after the children with an omicer, “You can have the children to-morrow,” she sald, “but I won't give them to you the way you want them, Maybe when you get them you wii be sorry you did not leave me alone.” SAID SHE WAS AFRAID OF HIM. After he left the house Mrs, Elian went to the flat of Mrs (+ Jager on the floor below and said that she was afraid of her hushiv She expressed the fear that he would be back later in the night and her fears were justified. He returned to the house at 2 o'clock this morning and tried to in the doors of the flat, His wife threatened to shoot him if he dij leave, The whole east wing of the house was awakened by the uproar, rat some o. the tenants say that they heard pistol shots either while the hr band was in the building or after he had left. Mrs. Croenjager und het husband are certain they heard the sound of pistol shots after Elian went down stairs. WALKED ABOUT WAITING FOR DEATH.
