to tbe Fifty -first street police station. Hii
wife Celia,* Joseph F. Donobne, a teiegiaph

Hetman Bebrns were taken into custody as
witnesses.
When Captain Mount heard abont Jnng’s
suspicious death be detailed Detectives
Burns and Cuffs to make un investigation.
I hey learned enough to lead them to be
lieve that tho sou was the man responsible
in some way for bis father's death.
They were told that young JuDg wanted
to get lid of his wife and that be intended
to poison her, as supposed, but .killed his
father instead, more by aocideut than with
int.nt.
Coroner Mevsemer was notified lute last
