MAN AND WOMAN DEAD
A Missing Couple Found Dead
Near Baton Rouge
Monday.

Baton Rouge, Nov. 13.-The
mysterious disappearance OF a
man and woman Sunday after
noon was explained yesterday
afternoon by the revelation of a
murder and suicide. Sunday
evening Mrs. r. II. Neal dlsap-
peared from her home at I'll
Main street, and nothing was
heard from her until the dlscoy-
ery. w. P. Bates, Jr., an en-
ployee of the baker shop of Alex
Cape, at 7O9 Government street,
also disappeared, and did not
turn up for work at the regular
hour. and his absence was only
explained when the grewsome
find was made by the city police.
Both parties were missing
throughout Sunday night and
Monday, and search was insti-
tuted by the officers of the local
sheriff's office and the city police.
Yesterday afternoon Officer Will
hanson who had been detailed by
Chief of Police Hare to make an
examination of the country across
University Lake, while eXplorig
that section cnme upon the bodies
of the missing people, both of
whom had been dead for at least
twenty-four hours.
Bates held in his right hand a
single action, 80 caliber, Smith
& Wesson revolver, and four
chambers were found empty and
one still loaded. The woman's
hat was lying nearby, but there
appeared to be no signs of a
scuffie and no signs of violence
were traceable on the person of
either of the victims of the trag-
edy. The bodies were a few feet
apart, and the authorities are UNI
able to find out whether the sui
eide was voluntary on part of
both or that Bates killed the wo-
man and then took his own life.
The bodies were brought here
and an inquest was held and a
verdict returned In accordance
with the facts above stated.
Persons acquainted with the
deceased state that they did not
know they were acquainted, but
others residing in the neighbor-
hood stated that they had been in
innate for the past year. Rela-
tives of both parties would not
make any statement regarding the
facts, and stated that they knew
nothing of the occurrence.
Bates was twenty-four years old
and the son of w. P. Bates, an
insurance agent of this city.
Mrs. r. III. Neal was a widow,
and with several children resided
at Gil Main street.
