Fancying he saw "little devils" in the eyes of his wife and year old baby, Robert M. Maloney, aged 26, a magic- ian, known on the small time as "Wil- lard the Wizard," shot and killed both at the Hotel Walton early Monday morning. Maloney, a raving maniac, is under arrest. Coroner Foertmeyer believes Maloney is demented, prob- ably as the result of too much whisky and cigarettes. The murderer says he is the son of "Willard the Wizard," also a magician, who has retired to his farm near San Antonio. Maloney came to Cincinnati to get an engagement, but was unsuc- cessful and began to drink heavily. He admits shooting his wife four times and the baby once. Maloney said ghosts and devils he showed in stage illusions constantly haunted him. He was chased as far as the Suspension Bridge and was only caught after a battle. The wife whose maiden name was Othello Harriman, assisted Maloney by giving spiritualistic demonstrations. Her father, Francis Harriman, of Dish- ing, Okla., is expected to claim the bodies. The last place the couple ex- hibited was at Hancock, Md. That was nearly a month ago. Maloney gave his residence as Goldsboro, N. C. (mm,. s (!>th KEITH REPORTED VERY ILL. The Herald printed Wednesday the statement that B. F. Keith was reported ill at his winter home in Miami, Fla. The same paper said it had a dispatch from Miami to the effect that Mr. Keith was in good health and about to go on a fishing cruise aboard his yacht. A story saying A. Paul Keith, E. F. Alhce and Maurice Goodman left New York for Florida Tuesday cast sonic doubt upon the reports of Mr. Keith's illness. Messrs. Albec and Goodman left New York last Saturday for Cin- cinnati and were expected to be away ten days. They may have been called south from the west. No one in author- ity around the United Hooking Oflices appeared to he in possession of any in- formation regarding Mr. Keith's health. He was married about a month ago to Miss Chase of Washington.
