BROKER SHOT
BY YMADDENED
CUSTOMER
J. H. OLIPHANT ATTACKED IN
WALL STREET OFFICE
c. A. Geiger, British Army Surgeon,
Ends Own Life-Curious Throng
Puts Stop to Curb
Trading
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2O.-J. H. Oliphant
prominent broker, was this afternoon
shot three times by G. A. Geiger, said to
be a former customer, in front of 20
Broad street today. He is insa serious
condition. Geiger committed suicide i'm
mediately afterward.
The shooting occurred in the offices Of
the firm of James H. Oliphant & Co.
Geiger called at the office this afternoon
and had dispute with Oliphant, sup
posedly over some business matter. Gel
ger appeared to be making some de-
mands, which were refused He drew
revolver and shot Oliphant, then turned
the weapon on himself and committed
suicide. Oliphant was taken to hos
pital.
The offices of the firm adjoin the stock
exchange and In the same building are
some of the largest brokerage houses in
the city. The shooting created intense
excitement and the offices of the firm
and the street outside were soon crowded.
The curb brokers are located in the
street just in front of the building and
the excitement and gathering of the un-
usual crowd obstructed the curb trading.
An unverified report is that Geiger had
lost heavily in the stock market and that
the stocks the firm had been carrying for
him were closed out because of expired
margins.
Oliphant is head of the firm of James
Oliphant & Co., which did a large busi-
ness on the stock exchange. Oliphant also
is a director of various other companies.
At the hospital it was said that OIL
plants condition is extremely critical
Geiger formerly was, surgeon In the
British army. He had recently returned
to New York after a. long stay at Hot
Springs, Ark 1t is believed that he be-
came temporarily insane just before the
shooting today The Oliphant firm had
been carrying Geiger along for some time
and he was in debt to them for margins
Recently Geiger was called upon to
make good this indebtedness, and today
he went to the Offices at 2 o'clock by ap-
pointment and had long conference with
Oliphant. The first knowledge of the
trouble was when the clerks heard the
sounds of shots. Rushing into Oliphant's
private office they found both men lying
on the floor, Oliphant with a bullet wound
in the pit of his stomach and Geiger dead
with bullet in his head.
Oliphant was conscious, and in response
to questions as to what caused the trouble
he said:
HE owed us money"
This was all he was able to say.
