The son replied holly and his
mother sprang from bed and ran
into the Kitchen to stop the quarrel.
AS she reached the door her son
drew a revolver and with a scream
she rushed down stairs to the
apartments OF Aaron Cohen and
asked him to hurry up stairs and
prevent violence. Suddenly four
shots rang out, accompanied by
groans.
Cohen dragged tho woman into
room saying, "You stay here or
you'll be murderer" Then he
locked the door and sat down by a
window to watch for policeman.
None came and Mrs. kalka bor-
rowed clothes from Mrs. Cohen and
ran out to the home of her son-in-
law, Henry Stack. He hurried to
a police station and officers we're
sent 10 the scene Of the shooting.
1t was a gruesome sight they
saw. In pools Of blood on the kitch-
en- floor lay kalka's dead body.
Beside it lay his son still conscious
but unable to speak. The young
man had fired four shots at his ia
Their, all taking effect, and had
then sent bullet into his own
brain, blowing out large piece of
the skull. He was taken to a hos
pital, where the physicians say to-
night he cannot live more than a
few hours. He bought the revolver

der was done.
