MURDER AT ASHLAND.

Druggist Shot Dead in His Own Store
Woman in the Case II Witness.
ASHLAND, Wis, March 5.-A fatal
shooting attray occurred here to-day,
the victim being Gavin NJ. Steel,
the man who committed the
crime. Steel is man abo ut so
years of age and brother-in-law of the
man who shot him. The shooting oc-
cured in Steel's drug store about 1890.
French gave himself UP Immediately
after the shooting, and was taken to
the county Jail, where reporter
found him few minutes later.
He was much excited, and when
asked to tell how the shooting occurred
took large glass of water and then
laid down on the cot in his cell. He
finally Gained down enough to tell his
story.
"Steel came between me and my
home, and | shot him for it" said
French. ''He made a confidant of my
wife, and made her believe | was not
capable of taking care of my affairs
L went home about noon. MY
wife was gone. | went to the
drug store, where l found her. Steel
had some money of mine that my wife
had turned over for him to keep. AS
soon as l arrived at the drug store | de-
manded the money of Steel. He re-
fused, and | pulled my revolver and
fired two or three times"
The first shot struck Steele in the left
breast, piercing his heart. The second
shot took effect in the right breast,
about four inches from the first
The murdered man walked about
twenty feet and dropped to the floor
with groan, dying instantly.
The murderer's wife was IN the store
at the time and witnessed the shooting
