DOMESTlc TRAGEDY
Muskogee rIau Shot Saturday Night.
Ills Wife Arrested for the Crime.

Richard Downing, guard at the
federal Jail, was shot and, 1t is be.
lieyed, fatally wounded, at his
home at 53S Allamont street short
ly after nine o'clock Saturday
night. The circumstance sur
rounding the affair are Of such
nature that II was impossible to
obtain the full details OF the ira.
gedy. II ls known however that
Downing was shot by his own wife
and the woman, a few minutes af-
ter the shooting, was taken 10
custody by the officers and is now
In Jail.
The motive for the act is shroud-
ed In considerable mystery. Near
friends Of the couple have known
for some time that their married
life vas not plee9eat. but there
was not the slightest prsmonition
ofthe earful tragedy that Saturday
night threw the residents Of that
section Of the city into the most
intense excitement.
-Four pistol shots, fred In rapid
succession, rang out in the still
evening air, and almost before the
reverberations ceased or the smoke
OF the pistols cleared away, the
nearby neighbors Of the Downings
were in the yard. Among the first
to arrive we're two negroes, who,
IL is claimed, disarmed both
Downing aud bis wife. They state
that when they first went into the
yard Downing was grasping his
wife by the arm, aud ordered her
TO come along with him to Jail.
In the other hand he held a revol-
YER, and his wife also held re.
volver in one OF her hands. Soon
after they arrived, however, Down.
ing weakened and, walking to the
porch, sat down, from which place
be was afterwards carried into the
house.
There is rumor OF another
man in the case, and with this
rumor is connected the statement
that one Of the four shots was fired
by Downing ct the unknown party.
The other three shots, II Is alleged
were fred By Mrs. Downing at her
husband Tue statement was given
out later, however that Downings
pistol was discharged by accident.
Du. Callahan and Rogers we're
summoned soon after the shooting
and rendered ell the aid possible.
An examination showed that The
shot that struck Downing entered
the body just below the right
and lodged directly under
the right nipple. The physioisns
have small hope Of the wounded
mans recovery.
II IL understood that Mrs.
admits that she shot her
husband, bul assigns 20 reason for
The act further than making the
statement that he broke In the
door TO her ruom. She Was great
y excited Saturday night, their
