BABY'S BODY, PARTLY EATEN BY DOGS, FOUND
Dead Infant in Hornell Was Perhaps, Killed
Hornell, Feb. 13 - Another dead baby was found in
this city this afternoon, making two dead babies and one abandoned found
here in the past three weeks.
The circumstances surrounding the finding of this
body were most gruesome. About 2 o'clock this afternoon Fred THREEHOUSE,
an employee of Thatcher Brothers, saw some dogs with what looked to be
meat in the rear of the residence of Charles WESCOTT, No. 54 North Main
street. He did not investigate, but later Allen KNIGHT and Raymond WRIGHT,
two boys who were playing in the vicinity, saw the dogs tearing at some
flesh and, going up, found it to be the body of an infant. The child had
been terribly mutilated by the dogs. The lower limbs had been chewed off
and eaten and one arm was chewed off. The dogs had also mutilated the back
of the head.
It was evident that an attempt had been previously made
to burn the body. The infant had been placed in a twenty-five pound sugar
sack and presumably, buried in the sand or snow. Coroner WAKELEY and the
police department were notified and have begun an investigation.
It is believed the child was murdered. An autopsy
has been ordered.

SUICIDE ATTEMPTED BY FATHER OF NINE
Brewery Worker Says His Wife Nagged Him
John STROHMEYER, 43 years old, went to an upper room of his house, No. 49
Loomis street, last night and undertook to hang himself, but didn't
succeed, because one of his children saw him hanging by a clothesline and
called her mother. STROHMEYER was cut down and arrested.
STROHMEYER is employed in the Bartholomay brewery
and works regularly, so the brewery officials say. Last night he went to
his home, where he has a wife and nine children, and after a quarrel went
to his room upstairs and refused to come to supper, so the police say. A
few minutes later one of his little daughters found him hanging by a
clothesline. She screamed and her mother went to the room and cut the man
down.
A physician who was summoned brought the man to
and notified the police. Sergeant ELLIS and Patrolman EMER sent STROHMEYER
to headquarters, where Dr. John A. STAPLETON treated him. STROHMEYER said
that because he did not always return to the house as soon as his work was
over his wife nagged him, and he was tired of it.
