THE NEW YORK MURDERS
A WOMAN IMPLICATED. By Cable.—Frees Association.—Copyrigol New York, March 28. The murder of the girl Wheeler was discovered through one Taggert, a neighbor, noticing a bundle of old clothes on a fire-escape. He shoved the bundle from the ledge with his broom, jestinglycrying, "I suppose it's a murder." The parcel fell into the courtyard four storeys below, where Taggert opened it and found the body of the girl. She had been strangled and 'her arms and legs severed in order to allow the murderer to put it in the fireplace. It had then been saturated with Jkerosene. The police had previously thoroughly searched the rooms without finding anything. A woman named Katie Muller, who lived with Wolter, has been arrested 'as an accessory.
