w. ID. Coakel- Then Committed suicide
by Shooting.

Richmond. Va. oct. 29.-W. D
Coaker. a native of South Carolina,
who moved to Virginia ten years ago
and who shortly afterwards married,
this morning shot and killed r. E.
Gressett. q neighbor. in Gloucester
county. He sent word to the con-
stabulaFy to take him in custody.
Early in the afternoon two cOnsta-
bles went to his home. AS they ap-
preached the premises the sound of a
pistol shot greeted them. When the
house was entered Coaker was found
dead by his own hand. In the cham
Der were discovered the dead bodies of
his wife and two children, aged 8 and
6 years. What caused Coaker to take
four lives besides his own, remains a
profound mystery though jealousy is
advanced as the most plausible theory.
Gressett and Cocker were regarded
as good friends. Eoaker hid at the
Gressett home and shot Gressett as the
latter emerged from the front door
early this morning. When Gressett
fell he begged Coaker not to shoot
again, and Mrs. Gressett united in the
appeal. Coaker came up close to
Gressett and fired, killing him in
stantIy.

in connection with the visit Of the Henry
H. Rogers party to the Kansas oil field
that occurred at Humboldt has Just

When the Standard Oil party had fin
ished its inspection of the Standard
company tank farm they drove over to
the Webster refinery. Mr.. Webster
knew c. n. Payne, general manager Of
the National Transit company, who was
with the trust officials, and as soon as
he saw him, said:
why don't you fellows let me alone
and not try to break me up like you did
back east?'
Payne grew angry and said that the
Standard people had never tried to break
webster uD.
yes, you did, Webster replied with
warmth you know that the Standard
has been fighting me for twenty eight
years and is still at it. You have a man
around Humboldt now who keeps prying
about my refinery at the time and at
tempts to find out how many shipments
I make and to whom they are sent
THAT is a lie,' Payne replied, and
then the party drove on.
