Paris, Oct. 20.—French detectives, sent out by the secret service'depart ment have discovered In the Tyrolese Alps grewsome Indications of the ex istence of a death trap for tourists which has been in operation for several years. The men had been sent Into the mountains to Investigate the mystery surrounding the disappearance of Dep uty Alphonse Braunschweig, a 8wlss, who disappeared August 10. Foul play was suspected and the detectives traced the deputy to an Inn In the Tyrolese Alps kept by a family of peasants having a very bad reputa tion. In the lust six years many tour ists have disappeared on their way to and from excursions In the neighbor ing mountains, and in every case they were known to have passed the Inn. A thorough search of the Inn re vealed a suit of clothes which had evi dently belonged to the lost deputy, and which showed signs of having been worn by the owner during a violent struggle. It is surmised that he was murdered at the Inn and his body 'dragged through the forest and thrown over a precipice. Peasants living In huts on the mountain side report hav ing heard the watch dog at the inn howl dismally during an entire night shortly before the deputy’s disappear ance was noted. While searching In the district u body In an advanced stage of decom position was found buried near the Inn. It Is believed to be that of another tourist who disappeared a few months before the Swiss deputy. The Inn Is In the district lying under the Jurisdiction of the court at Bozen. The detectives asked the authorities for a warrant to arrest the Innkeeper and his entire family, but were re fused. The Austrian ambassador here has been approached* by M. Halbard, chief of the French secret service, and has communicated with Vienna. Develop ments are anxiously awaited.
