JKRiSEY CITY, N. J., Apfil 14. An
unromantic landlord announced today
tnat he would break up the Andrews
love triangle immediately.
Either Mrs. Herbert 'Thornton An
drews, number one, aged 42, or Mr?.
Herbert Thornton Andrews, number
two, aged 25, must leave the apart
ment where they have been living
with Herbert Thornton Andrews, 30,
whom both call "husband," accord
ing to William Cahill, agent for tho
real estate firm which owns the
place.
"I will have a showdown with An
drews today," said Cahill, who dis
covered the triangle last night while
investigating rumoVs he had heard.
"I am inclined to believe that Mrs.
Andrews number one is within her
rights, but Andrews will be given an
" opportunity to present any evidence
to the contrary he may have. At any
rate, 'ne,-ofthe 'Women must leave
, the apartment today."
Andrews, a dapper young broker,
beseiged by reporters as he left the
apartment early today for his office
in New York, said he could not talk
until he had seen his attorneys, but
would "give you boys a cracking
good story" later in the day.
"There is nothing to it," he added.
"It is just the work of a business riv
al." Andrews was met at the door of
his apartment today and while he was
speaking to the reporters a woman
wearing a kimona and boudoir cap ap
peared in the rear of thediinly lighted
room.
"What are you boys trying to do
make this a fiction center?" she asked
with noticeable asperity in her voice.
She disappeared into the rear of the
apartment before her features could
be distinguished.. Andrews was asked
if she were "Mrs. Andrews," but re
fused to answer. The general impres
sion, however, was that she was Mr3.
Andrews number one.
As Andrews disappeared down the
walk, bound for the subway, eight-year-old
John, the eldest of his two
sons, waved at him from an upstairs
window. Andrews did not turn around.
describing Incidents at the Andrews
home last night, Cahill said that dur
ing hiB conversation with Mrs. An
drews number one, while Andrews
and Mrs. Andrews number two were
attending a theater party in New
York, the former told hira she would
throw number two down the stairs

EACH SKULL CRUSHED
THEORY IS .THAT MEN WERE
KILLED IN SKIRMISH WITH
TROOPERS.
Mute evidence of a long forgotten
tragedy, pr bably enacted in the
dr.ys of the early settlement of The
Dalles, six skeletons were unenrthea
yesterday by highway workers en
gaged in the construction of the Co
lumbia River highway near the De
schutes river. The benes ciumbled
to dust upon being exposed to the
air.
It is thought probable that the "
bones are those of Indian warriors
killed in battle, as each skull was
crushed, as from u hard blow. The
bodies were then buried in a shal
low grave scooped out m the sand,
the position of the skeletons would
seem to Indicate.
With the bones were found a large
quantity of stone and shell Indian
beads, an old-fashioned gold watch
chain, such as worn by white set
tlers In the early days, a rotted
McClellan army saddle, sucn as used
by cavalrymen stationed at old Fort
Dalles, and a small copper campaign
kettle.
Because of the rapidity In which
the bones disintegrated upon being
exposed to air, it is not known
whether nil of the skeletons were
those of Indians. One theory advanc
ed by highway workers Is that tho
bodies wore burled following a skir
mish between Indians and whlto
troops, in which a number of both
soldiers and Indians w;ro killed.
Tho skeletons wore found a short
dlstanco from tho highway, whero
