DEED COMMITTED IN PR.VATE RESIDENCE After Arrest Woman Admits Illicit Relations with Another's Him band, bat Expressee Igno rance of Law. Maggla Jorgenson. arrestea Thursday evening with Peter Born at 409 North Eighth street (Born being charged with as serting a wife and four children in Warren, Pa ), committed suicide yesterday morning by hanging at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Brooks, 153 Vine street, where ihe had been placed for the night by the police, there being no accommodation for femalo prisoners in the city Jail. The woman was placed by Mrs. Brooks in a small back room on tle second floor from which a stairway led to the kitchen on the first floor. The door of the room leading to the hall was locked by Mrs. Brooks. Tha discov ery that the woman had taken her Ufa was made this morning when Alta An drews, a young girl employed as a domestic by Mrs. Brooks, went to summon her to breakfast. Although the body was still warm, It was evident the woman had bren dead several hours. She had taken the ropts of a portiere curtain, tied one end around her neck and the other to the top rail of the bannister and hung herself. Her feet were within a few Inches of the floor and she evidently slowly strangled to death. City Physclan Tlnley, in the ab sence of Coroner Treynor from the city, ordered the body cut down and taken to Cutler's undertaking rooms. Storlen Are at Variance. Marie Jorgenson, better known to her friends as Maggie, when taken Into cus tody Thursday night, professed to be un able to speak English and her atatement, made to Chief of Police Richmond, was through an Interpreter. She said that she and Born had been sweethearts In Den mark ten years ago, but that she had not seen him since until she met him in Omaha about a mnth ago. This statement Is contradicted by Rasmus Larsen, giving his address as 276 South Twentieth street, Omaha, who told the police that Miss Jorgenson came to Omaha about two months ago from Warren, Pa and that his wife assisted her in securing employment as a domestic. Bhe told Chief Richmond further that Born wrote to her about a year ago telling her to come to the L'nited States, and she did so. She ad mitted she hod been living with Born as his wife, although she was fully aware that he had a wife and four children in Penn sylvania. She professed Ignorance of the law and claimed she did not know she was doing wrong. She took her arrest stolidly and did not appear at all exercised. Conld Speak Knatllsh. That the woman could speak English was disclosed while she was being taken to the home of Mrs. Brooks by an officer. She asked the officer to allow her to go. as she wished to go to the home of her grand mother. ' This was the first Intimation she had given that she bad any relatives In this country. Bom's arrest waa brought about by Mrs. Larsen, who had received a letter making inquiries about her husband. Mrs. Larsen called at the place where Miss Jorgenson was employed and asked her If Peter Born was in Omaha. Tha woman made an evasive reply, and that evening suddenly left her employers. She and Born nre then supposed to have come to. Council Bluffs, where Born was working in the cornice shop of Petersen & Grahl. Born was not apprised of the woman's suicide until he waa arraigned In police court. When the news was imparted to him he almost fainted. He at once sent a telegram to his wife in Warren, saying he was under nrrest; that Maggie Jorgenson had' committed suicide and he would be willing to return home to her if she with drew the charge against him. Chief of Police Richmond received a telegram yesterday afternoon from Bom's wife stating she would leave at once for Council Bluffs. The telegram was In an swer to one sent her by the chief Thurs day night apprising her of her husband's arrest. Not First Attempt on l ife. According1 to a statement mads by Born yesterday afternoon, Marie Jorgenson had made a previous attempt to end her life. Ha said that about three weeks ago on returning to his room in the evening he found a note from the woman stating that l he would not see her alive again. Born at once hastened to AT.ss Jorgenson's boarding place and, according to his story, waa Just in time to save her life. The woman, ha said, had tied a rope around her neck and one end to the bed poat and was deliberately strangling herself to death. Born said be could ascribe no I reason why the woman was anxious to take her own life. , Born said further that Miss Jorgenson on her arrival in the United States from Denmark about a year ago went direct to Warren, Pa., where lie and his family were living. She first secured employ ment in the Emergency hospital and later I In a private family. , She left Warren about three mpnths ago and went to Omaha, where he followed her about four weeks ago. The woman, he Bald, had no ! relatives in this country, end her etata i ment to the officer Thursday night that i aha had a grandmother to whom ahe ; wanted to go was false.
