- Lying prostrate in a nauseating pool
of blood, with hla skull crushed to a
pulp, the dead body of Eugene 8. - Al
len, a young negro masseur, waa found
on the sidewalk on Park street near
Stark about 10:10 o'clock laat night.
An open window directly, above in the
second story of the Grlselda lodging-
house and a flimsy wooden railing lying
uadar the body testified to the manner
In which the unfortunate man, mat hla
death. .
r Whether Allen felt accidentally or waa
hurled oat - of , tho . window , .during

questions that may bo solved by- the
investigation of the-police and coroner.
Prom, developments .that have corns to
light as to tho penchant of tho deceased
to aeek tho society of white women the
theory that he may have been murdered
by eomo aggrieved relative is tenable.
Allen cams to -the Orieelda rooming

owned by Xhr. A. I. Glssy and con
ducted by Madams - Luckky shortly
after 10 o'clock, and a eked to bo shown
to a room for tho night. The landlady
conducted him to apartment - No. 0,
which has two windows facing on Park
street. 1 Ho appeared to be aatiafted
with th room, and after paying the
rental entered tho chamber and locked
the door.. Madame Luckky retired to
her room and- was aroused about II
minutes later by excited voices on the
sidewalk. Upon making an investiga
tion she was horrified to find that tha
man to whom aba had rented room No.

A telephone messagd to police head

An examination demonstrated that the
