Algodones, May 80. P. Hovey, a
well known politician and deputy sher
iff of Sandoval County and the son
of the late o. p Hovey, prominent
citizen of Santa Fe forty years ago.
was shot and instantly killed at An.
gostura about two miles from here at
$3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon, by ].
H. Madden, a pioneer of the Territory
and at present justice of the peace at
Algodones.
The killing seems to be the result
of a quarrel of long standing and that
there was bitter feeling between the
two men was attested by their actions
in court and by letters which have APP
peared in the newspapers. On one oc-
casion Madden had charges filed
against Hovey for giving a bale at
which liquor was sold and gambling
done, but when the case was tried the
defendant was dismissed. This served
to increase the enmity between the
two men and the fight which resulted
in Hoveys death Is thought to be the
direct result of this matter.
Madden Badly Beaten.
Late yesterday afternoon Hovey
drove to Angostura from Algodones In
buggy and arrived at the home of
Manuel Gonzales, where Madden lives.
He found Madden alone and accord
ing to the reports Of the affair re.
ceived here, gave him terrific beat
ing Madden is an old man sixty years
Of age and has but one leg the other
having been lost while he was serv-
ing the army. Hovey was younger
man, Weighing nearly 200 pounds and
1t is said that he did not spare Mad
den. having nearly beaten him to
death.
Hovey was just leaving, when a
man who had been attracted by Mad
den's cries for help came up. Accord.
ing to his story Hovey turned around
and said he was going back to finish
the Job. AT the door he was shot
through the body and death must have
been instantaneous as he dropped in
his tracks.
Madden was placed under arrest by
Deputy Sheriff Lobato and placed un.
der a guard until he can be taken to
the county Jail In Bernalilo. Hoveys
body was left lying as 1t fell until the
arrival of Justice of the Peace Juan
Mondragon, from Bernalillo, who came
to Algodones on late train to hold
the inquest.
Public Sympathy With Madden.
In spite of the sensationalism of the
affair 1t is said there is little feeling
concerning the killing at Algodones,
the concensus of opinion being that
after the beating he had received Mad.
den in killing Hovey acted in self de-
fense.
Madden is pioneer Of Albuquerque
and being past his sixtleth year and
crippled is growing feeble. He has
held the offices OF justice OF the peace
and police Judge at albuquerque and
was later made justice of the peace
at Algodones,
Hovey is native of Santa Fe and
came here from that city about eight
years ago. He Is the nephew Of C.
NJ. Conklin, city marshal at Santa Fe,
and Is also related by marriage to the
Sandoval family Of Sandoval County
He has been prominent in Sandoval
County politics and has held numerous
minor offices.

OF A PRETTY SERVING Girl
John Aston Moorhead. Heir to Pittsburg Steel

spite Opposition of Parents.

Pittsburg. John Aston Moorhead,
son of John Moorhead, Jr, and a
grandson of John Moorhead, who was
ono of tho group of great Pittsburg
steel magnates in his lifetime, left the
fsmily home recently with his mothers
French maid, and went to New York,
where they were married.
Society here is in great state OF ex-
element over the marriage, which
broke off relations between the young
man and his family. Friends of the
Moorheads have been informed that
he will be disinherited, which will
mean the loss of a great fortune, for
the head of the family is many times
a millionaire.
According to those who are close to
the family, stormy scene preceded
the departure of the French maid. Mrs.
Moorhead spent several months on
the continent last year and on her re-
turn home in the autumn she brought
over with her the pretty little French
girl, whose family name appears to
have been lost somewhere in transit
She was known here only as Frances,
but Mrs. Moorhead has vague idea
that her last name may have been

The girl was beauty, and she had
not been installed in the Moorhead
mansion a week before it became man.

tho children, was tumbling in love with
her. Mrs. Moorhead finally took the
Toys father into her confidence.
Papa Moorhead refused to take the
attachment seriously. He said that II
the boy was let alone for little while
1t would pass off just like the measles.
He would not even sanction the dis
missal of the pretty maid as a
measure of precaution. And so things
were permitted to drift for several
months.
The attachment became so painfully
manifest about week ago that Mr..
and Mrs. Moorhead summoned the
young man into their presence and in
formed him that he must Immediately
cease his attentions to the family serv-
ant. To their utter amazement he not
only refused point-blank to obey, but
declared his intentions to make her

storm that the boy threatened to quit
