A MURDER AND A SUICIDE {
Husband and Wife is the Result Of Jealous
Passion

Word was received here Sunday even
ing at seven O'Clock that there had beer
murder and a suicide at Winchester
Upon investigation it was learned that
G. S. Snyder of Winchester had shot and
killed his wife with a revolver. After
the deed was done he turned the smok-
ing weapon on himself and blew out his
brains. Both were instantly in the throes
of death and passed away at almost the
same moment. For two years their do
mestic relations have been anything but
pleasant The first rupture took place
two years ago when Snyder struck his
wife in a fit of passion, almost killing
her. Since that time they have been
parted and were reunited on account of
the four children.
Four weeks ago Mrs Snyder left her
husband at Lewiston and went to the
King, near Winchester. Snyder was
jealous of his wife, and trading his watch
to second hand store here in Lewiston
for a revolver and cartridges followed her
to Winchester for the avowed purpose of
committing the murder, as has been
gathered from threats made to acquaint-
ances here. He put in Thursday loafng
in Culdesac. where he is we'll known and
then went to Winchester and stopped
with friends until about six O'Clock, when
he went to Mr.. Kings home and entering
went to the room occupied by his wife,
her mother, three of his daughters and a
number of neighbors. He called his wife
to another room and there shot two bull
lets into her body. He then took his
own life.
The couple had made their home in
Lewiston the past winter, moving here
gagged in the hotel business. Snyder has
been employed on the street works and
all who knew him say that he was pecul-
lar and narrow but industrious. Edith,
the oldest of the three orphan girls. has
been waiting tables at the Bollinger
house and the news came to her first.
She left Sunday evening for the scene of
the sad tragedy. Coroner Clyde Vassar
left yesterday to take charge of the
bodies.
At the time of the tragedy Snyder had
been drinking. He accused his wife of
in6delity

MORE ROOM IN
 BlSBEE SCHOOLS
ADDITIONS TO BE BUILT IN TOMB STONE CANYON AND LOWELL
Trustee Hammer Says Additions vii;
 Accommodate t2o More Scholars To Elect Teachers for Next Term

l.. T. Hammer, of the school trustees stated yesterday afternoon that when the local schools reopen for the term at the close Of the present school ses- sion there will be room for about 120 more scholars than can be accommo- l dated at the present time
 The trustees are now advertising for bids for the building of additions to the Tombstone canyon and Lowell two school houses are far too small for the number of children that must be looked after
 We find" said Trustee Hammer, that the schools are now more crowd ed than they were last year before we built the Lowell and Tombstone can yon schools. During the vacations. the additions will be built, and when the schools open for the next term. We will be in shape to take care of all the children"
 At the present time the conditions in the schools of this city are much worse than was expected when the sCuCOt year DSEuu- II dS AHOu5hL then that there would be plenty of room for all the scholars in the city. The increase has been much more than was prepared for.
 Trustee Hammer further stated that some needed repairs will be made on the Genital scbbol building during the vacation period. This will be done at the least possible expense. The re- pairs are not to be extensive. Some slight changes will be made that will make the building more convenient for teachers and scholars.
 The board of trustees. consisting of Messrs. Woods, Clawson and Warn CT. has mapped out a course of action which will raise the standard of Bis bee schools during the next year to first place in the territory. They are now working to that end and will continue 10 6o so.

tionists has not as yet made 6 thor ough study of the conditions govern ing their side of the controversy, but will have all the data at his fingers ends before the matter comes up for hearing.
 An effort yesterday to uncover the leaders in this movement failed to bring out anything material. Since the petitions were first circulated some time ago, there has been little said or done. It Is understood that there is fund which will be used to assist in discorporating Bisbee.
 Thus far nothing has been done by the incorporation advocates to offset the effort to be made this week before the board of supervisors. The most of them are of the opinion that little can be done with the supervisors, ow- irS to the petition not having the re quired number of names as prescribed by law.

EMPLOY JUDGE MCGOWAN

( The disincorporation advocates in Bisbee have employed Attorney Me Gowan to look after their interests be- fore the board of supervisors. He will appear before the board this week, ard all to their attention the petition asking that Bisbee return to the con ditioo of affairs which existed prior to incorporation.
 Judge McGowan, on what do the disincorporationists base their claim ?'' was asked. The reply vas to the point, the judge saying:
 On the sovereign win of the peo- pie. The majority of them want k, and they have right to t."
 Judge McGowan then stated that if the supervisors do rot grant the re- quest of the signers of the petition. the matter will probably be carried into the courts on mandamus pro ceedings.

New York, Sept. 4.-The market

off in all directions and ruled quite
dull most of the day. AS rule, SELL

was that yesterdays break was, I'M
the chances now are that the market
will prove to have been largely over
sold. Jumping to the conclusion that
the crop is doing so we'll merely be-
cause the bureau figures are not rea-
sonable. The crop is so late that to
compare the bureau figures on condi-
ton when the crop is late to those on
condition when the crop is normal as
to maturity is simply ridiculous. The
facts remain as bullish as ever. No
cotton has been moving of any conse-
quence and not enough is likely to
move the rest of the month TO weaken
the position of the staple. In fact so lit
tie win have come into sight by the
close of the month that we look for
quite scare among the shorts, espe-
cially as we shall, by then, be getting
near the season for cold snap which
may yet cut the crop down materially.

Ware & Leila nd's Letter.

New York, Sept. 4.-'The September
report on condition Of cotton has, of
course, been the event of the week.
Contrary to all expectations, the de-
partment has sent figures than the
previous month and the showing
came as surprise to the trade. Not
that the condition of the growing crop
was believed to be lower than the fig-
ufes, but because the conservative ten
dency of government estimates led the
majority to the belief that an advance
would hardly be given. The effect up
on the market was decisive and prac-
tically all the recent advance has been
lost
The enormous purchases in October
that carried that option to 10.S0c are
still believed to be intact. Three-quar-
tiers of a cent has been knocked off of
the September price in there days
Practically the same is true of October
This must cause a strain somewhere
With the condition of growing crop
the best with one ext~SCion, in ten
years, with the level Of prices at the
present time due to three or four years
bulf speculation and with an enormous
long interest conferred in one or two
hands, the outlook is not encouraging
for BUYERS, in fact it Is difficult to re-
strain enthusiasm on the bear side. of
cotton at the present time. Early
frosts would change the entire out
look. ~
Cotton is not yet moving freely. The
