TWO LIVES FOR A HAT.
Double Tragedy Was the Result of a
Trivial Quarrel,

Dubois, Pa, May 23.-At Cardiff, a
village near here, a woman sacrificed
her life for her husbands hat. She
was shot down in cold blood by an
Italian, while recovering the hat, and
a half hour later the murderer was
lying dead, his head full of buckshot
from the gun Of the husband Of the
murdered woman. A quarrel Of &
trivial nature was the primary cause
of the double killing.
Frank Paul, prominent man oI
Cardiff, went to boarding house Sat
urday night to visit friends.
A quarrel arose between Paul and
Saverio Pelligreno, an inmate Of the
house, and Paul, apprehensive of seri.
Gus trouble, left hurriedly for his
home, leaving his hat lying on the
ground in front of the house.
His wife urged him to return for the
Nat, but Paul declined and his wife
volunteered to get it, Paul watched
her from his door.
She walked to the boarding house,
which is in plain sight of Pauls home
and as she stopped to recover the hat
Pelligreno fired point blank at hel
With a shotgun, the shot entering the
woman's head and killing her instant
ly. Paul, who had witnessed the deed
took a revolver and shotgun and start
ed to avenge his wife.
AS the Italian was trying to escape
Paul fired several shots from his re
volver but missed. Pelligreno sue
ceeded in barricading himself in his
room and Paul stood guard in the hall
way of tfhe house. The people about
the scene were terrorized and would
not interfere
After half an hour Pelligreno, hear
ing no stir, stuck his head through the
door. Paul quick as a flash fired
killing the murderer Of his wife.
After examining the body to see tha
no life remained Paul picked up his
wife's body and carried it to his
home.
Surrounded by his three small chill
dren, the officers found him bending
weeping over the remains.

POOL ROOM CONTROVERSY.
Statement Of a Prominent Western
Union Director.

Union Director.
New York, May 24.--Actuated by the
belief that the attitude of President
Clowry and other Western Union Off.
cials has been misrepresented and
misunderstood in the pool room con
troversy, Jacob H. Schiff, head Of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and a Western
Union director, made the following
statement:
Prior to reaching home last Tues
day knew almost nothing about this
matter, but was soon in possession OF
the facts. | had an interview the fol-
lowing morning with Norris X. JeH-
up, whom found very much exercised
over the situation, but who gave me
the assurance that George j. Gould
could be relied upon to throw his en-
tire influence in the direction of what
was Justly demanded by public opin-
ion.
"Mr Gould had told Mr.. Jesup with
out reserve that he would rather have
the entire receipts of the Western
Union company thrown into the street
than have one dollar Of them tainted
with gambling or wrong doing of any
kind
"Soon after my interview with Mr..
Jesup | attended the executive com
mittee meeting of the Western Union
company. | found President Clowry
in waiting and he Immediately submit
ted for their approval the order he
had already promulgated, stopping, on
his own responsibility, special race
track service all over the country.
"This was unanimously approved by
the committee, but it is only just to
Mr.. Clowry to say that the initiative
was taken entirely by him, and that
If it has been publicly stated that I
or any one else prompted this action,
such statement is without truth.
81 can only repeat that President
Clowry, in the first instance, as well as
Mr. Gould and Mr.. Jesup, deserve the
credit, in my judgment, for having
done with such promptness what was
properly demanded by public opinion" !"

Lake Strike Retards Business.

Weather conditions are still the ap-
parent drawback in the trade and crop
situation Temperatures have been
too cool to allow of free distribution of
spring and summer goods at retail and
they likewise retard termination and
growth of crops, though permitting
good progress In seeding in various
sections of the country.
In jobbing circles the feeling is that
the spring trade is past and gone, and
efforts are now concentrated on fall
business, reports as to which are fair
ly good, though not equal to a year
ago.
The industrial situation is rather
uuieter but the most serious strike Of
the year, that of masters and pilots Of
lake vessels, continues, with no pros
pect of settlement This has practic-
lily killed transportation on the lakes,
End the coal, ore, lumber and grain
trades exhibit the effects of the al
most total stoppage Of the activities OF
over 100000 men.
