THEIR AMOURS END IN TRAGEDY
YOUNG GEHRIG SHOT HIS
SCHOOLBOY CHUM.
Then Turned the Pistol On Himself
Letter Left By Gehrig Explain
ing the Motive of Deed.

Lancaster, Pa, March 9.-Roy Gehrig
of Milton, Pa, shot and perhaps fatal
~ wounded Will B. Davis of st. Clair,
Pa, at Millersville today, and then
killed himself
The boys were pupils of Pierce's bust
ness college at Philadelphia and went
to MilleIsville Saturday to call upon
two lady students at the normal school
there.
They returned to the village last
night about 10 O'Clock. and securing a
room at Hoaks Hotel, retired imme-
diately. Early this morning the in
mates of the place were startled by a
fusillade of pistol shots and a moment
later Davis came running down stairs
with blood gushing from several
wounds in his face. Another shot was
heard, followed by the sound of a body
falling to the floor. Davis ran into
the barroom, eXciaiming, My chum
shot me-"
Davis was in bed>when Gehrig, who
was walking about the room, drew a
pistol and fired three times in quick
TO the room where the tragedy occurred
found Gehrig lying on the floor with
bullet hole in his left temple. He died
without regaining consciousness. A note
written by Gehrig was found, explain
ing the tragedy as follows: I'VE are
dead in love with Alice Cummings and
Annie Holmes, and not being able TO
see them and they keeping away from
us. we resolved to take our lives. My
name is Roy Gehrig of Milton, Pa, and
the little fellow is William Davis of st.
Clair. Please notify our parents at
once. We would like to be cremated;
so notify our parents at once"
Davis says he knows nothing of the
note and denies there was any compact
to commit suicide. From what can be
learned, it seems that Gehrig, who was
introduced to the ladies by Davis. was
desperately in love with Miss Cum
mings and that he and Davis had a dis
pute over her. Gehrig then, it is sup
posed. decided to kill Davis and take
his own life, and wrote the letter TO
make the affair appear like a double
suicide. They were each about 10 years
of age.

he was signalled to pull out he re-
mained with his 6-poundcrs to do work
which was historic and astonishing. At
one time the Gloucester was being fired
at by the Nizcaya, both torpedo boat
destroycrs and MORO battery. That
she was not sunk and that she had
enough men left TO work her guns was
marvellous. She lay close in to where
the Vizcaya came out and ran along
parallel, firing at the cruisers fercely,
in proportion to her size, as did the In
diana and Iowa.
Capt. Eulato of the Nizcaya probably
feared a torpedo from the Gloucester,
for he turned loose his secondary bat
terry at her as he passed on into Il storm
of shells from the battleships.
When the destroyers came out the
Gloucester accepted them at once as
parts of her contract. These destroyers
were strong in machine guns and guns
of /, and 6 FOUNDER class. 1t seemed
that smoke Jets burst from the destroy
ers in twenty places as they slipped
along after the Vizcaya, and the water
all about the Gloucester was kept
splashing by shells and bullets from
machine guns, but the yacht steamed
ahead, keeping the destroyers directly
between her and shore and hammerlng
them. The MORO was throwing shells
from behind, and occasionally the Viz
caya turned a gun or two upon her fol-
lower. The yacht was often completely
hidden by smoke. l could not but won
der if she had been sunk, but she
always forged ahead and appeared
again buster than ever.
In ten minutes the fire of the destroy
ers slackened, but although some of
their guns were disabled, their ma
chinery was all right, and they moved
on till Morro could no longer take part
in the battle.
Admiral SamPson's Dash In.
Then the New York appeared, hurry
ing. on news from the Resolute that
Cervera had dashed his wedge of
cruisers into the American feet and
was dying gloriously. The New York
was six miles away when the destroyers
saw her. The Morro thundered at
Sampson as he came within range, but
the admiral never needed, seeing only
in the distance the dim forms of the
Vizcaya and the Oquendo, hopelessly
hemmed in by the circle OF fire, while
in the foreground the Gloucester was
fighting two destroyers at short range.
When the destroyers saw the flagship
they sped away from the Gloucester
and tried to overtake the Vizcaya and
get into shelter on her starboard side
If that could be done there ought TO be
a chance to torpedo the Indiana and
break through our line to the open sea,
where speed would save them, but the
Indiana steamed inshore, and the Iowa,
too, but farther away. The Indianas
