SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

Los ANGELES, June 21.-William F.
Retiring is dead Mrs Vera Retiring, his
wife, and Mrs. Bessie O'Day, her sister,

women this morning, after which he
successfully ended his own miserable
life The two women are lying in

ceive her husband into her home. Two

Mrs. O'Day until long after midnight

visitors at the Ketring home for some
time. legal battle for considerable
property in Omaha has been raging be-
tween Retiring and his wife and it is
believed he intended surprising his wife
this morning in a compromising posi-
ton, which would have strengthened
his case
Retiring secreted himself in a closet
in his wife's room several hours before
she retired Wednesday night. When
his wife with Mrs. O'Day came into
the room and prepared to retire Ket-
ring disclosed his place of concealment
and rushed toward the women. a
heated argument ensCed, according to
other occupants of the house, and the
two women then ran into the street,
intending to call the police. Retiring
followed them and opened fire as they
emerged into the street. The enraged
husband retained himself sufficiently to
shoot with great accuracy and both
women were badly injured.
After firing another shot at boy
who attempted to interfere. Ketring
turned the revolver on himself and at
tempted to end his life, but was foiled
because the revolver refused to dis
charge. The craZed man quickly drew
q pocketknife and slashed his throat
from ear to ear.

REPUTATION HAS OILY SMELL.

Though the Standard Oil Company
has practically been convicted Of vio-
lating the Elkins law which prohibits
the giving of rebates, and also of un-
lawful methods in competition, the
outcome is anxiously awaited as to
what step the government will take.
The methods practiced by this con-
Germ for years have been the most
outrageous in the history of all trusts.
Yet it has been allowed to rob the
people with IMMUNITY while the courts
looked on complacently, says an ex-
change. 1t has never been fair to its
competitors, its policy being to choke
the life out of the small oil companies
by going into the same field and I'M
derseling them, even placing the
price of oil below the cost of produc-
ton in order to get the business away
from them. The STANDARD Oil Com
pany has earned reputation that no
legitimate enterprise will envy, and
now that the government has them
on the hip it should give them dose
of the medicine which they have dealt
out in such generous portions to
smaller companies that have dared to
enter the field with them.
