Atlantic City, n. j.. Sept. f1.-with a
wound through his body just above the
heart, and a winchester repeating shot
gun OF the type used by express messen-
gers who guard treasure clasped I'm his
hand, Lawrence T. Adams. p years old
only son OF wealthy widow, was found
dead this afternoon in a room on the
third story OF his mothers cottage on
Vermont avenue.
William Harvey Reed. 2s years old. hus-
band Of the dead mans sister. a clerk In
the Atlantic City postoffice who was
alone with Adams in the room when the
shot was fred admitted that he held the
gun at the time. He was locked up pend
ing the coroner's inquest. which is TO de-
termine whether his statement that the
shooting was an accident shall save him
from a charge OF murder--
Conflicting statements OF the mother OF
the murdered man and others in the
house make II impossible TO tell whether
the shot was fred in anger. The police.
who claim 70 have Information Of an i'm
portant nature refuse 10 make any state
ment before the inquest.
The mother who Is nearly crazed over
tte death Of her son. seems 10 be uncer-
tain whether TO accuse Reed OF murder
daughter.
Immediately after the shooting persons
in the house told stories that the two
young men had been in a quarrel in the
room.
IRE mother and wife were on the first
floor OF the cottage when the shot was
fred. Both ran upstairs. and the police
were summoned by neighbors. Adams
had received the deadly wound while
seated In chair. and had struggled or
been dragged across the room TO a point
near the door
The police found Reed and his wife in
an adjoining room. Reeds first words
were:
L shot him. but Il was an accident"
He is said 20 have made other admis-
sions. but the r,olice refuse 10 say WHAT
they were. The two men had always
been on friendly terms but there Ia 1T
tie doubt they were quarrelling today
over some matter which the police may
know.
Reed In his cell I'm the city Jail seems

wife appears 10 realize the gravity OF HIS
situation. Reed has no relatives IN this

Compton. Of Ottawa, were married q
the court house this morning. Thu
proceedings seemed regular and th'
bride and groom the ordinary loving
couple. But 10 10 said that the newly
| made bride is wife No. 1. After the
ceremony was performed, the bride
| and groom went to the Rock Island
depot to take the freight for Salina'
While waitingfor the train Gordon
was recognised and asked what ht
had done with the other wives he al'
ready possessed. Gordon did not
stop.to onswer the question but made
. flying start for the nearest corn6eld
and has mot since been seen. The
officers have been searching for him
all day. The deserted bride went on
to Salina.

Sheriff Baker went to Salina last
night and arrested D. L. Gordon, who
married Miss Myrtle Compton here
yesterday and who skipped to the
cornfelds when questioned In regard
to the three wives he had already
married.
When Gordon ran from the Rock
Island depot into the delds. he made
Q circuit to the west and caught o
Union Pacific train to Salina at the
crossing west Of town. Sheriff Baker
followed on the next train and made
the arrest without difficulty.
Gordon Is young man, 2S or "a

been married three times before he
came here for the fourth application.
The man who recognized him OF the
Rock Island depot yesterday will
swear to the complaint against him.
