ONE WOMAN SHOOTS ANOTHER.
Tragic End Of . Dance Al Atlanta, Ga.--The
Murder Deliberate.

ATLANTA, April ANNA Wooden is
locked up at the police station charged with
murder, and Matte Moore is lying dead in
a little house in Bellwood from the effects
of pistol shot fired by the Woodden

The two women were at dance on
Thursday night near the chemical works
which is between the city and Bellwood.
The dancing was going merrily along when
Anna Wooden asked the woman she after
ward killed to step out of the house, and
the request was promptly acceded to. In an
instant a pistol shot startled the dancers
and Matte Moore fell with bullet in her
side. The woman who had done the shoot
ing then left the place, and WAS later ar
rested and brought to the police station
where she has since been kept.
Last night Matte Moore sent for Police
man Barrett and told him that she knew she
was going to die and wanted to make a
statement about the shooting. She then
said that the woman had called her outside
of the house and shot her without word
of warning. Anna Wooden made state
ment this morning, and by her own atLnis
sion the killing was deliberate murder.
"Mattie Moore" she said. 'told stories
on me. and said my character was not good

went over to the dance. As soon as ! saw

said anything more about me.

Y BELGIUM SOCIALISTS
Ne. in Convention in Client on Sunday 10 De-
mand Universal Suffrage.

BRussELs, April 2.-The Socialists me,
in convention in Ghent today, principally to
determine what attitude their party shall
take in case universal suffrage is refused
them. This morning 1000 French Social
lists, led by the mayor of Roubaix and sew
eral town councillors, left the train amid
shouts of the crowd which surrounded the
station and marched in a body to the con-
vention hall. On all sides they were
greeted with the cry Long live the rev.
olution."
After discussing at length the advisable
ity of a general strike, the congress this
afternoon passed resolutions substantially
in harmony with previous declarations on
the subject. The n solutions were to the
effect that there should be no general strike
in Belgium in case the restrictions upon
suffrage are limited by Parliament to ques-
tions of age and plurality of votes for heads
of families. But if, however, Parliament
should grant plurality of votes to prop
er,y owners and holders of university
diplomas, the general labor council will
be charged to order at once strike of all
the laborers in the country.
