Gowen's Double Murder Theory Emerges in Pa. Tragedy
In Wilkes Barre on December 24 a former Mollie Maguire lodge master presents a theory that Francis J Gowen was murdered by a double acting as the lawyer. He claims Gowen was targeted by a stranger who resembled the attorney and purchased the weapon in Washington. The killer allegedly used Gowen’s hotel movements to time the fatal shot, with an accomplice aiding escape. Gowen’s widow and Philadelphia relatives reject self inflicted death. Pinkerton and Mollie Maguire ties are cited as supporting the murder theory. Gowen's estate affairs note an administrator petition for Franklin B Gowen's estate valued at 450 000 dollars, mainly personal property.
