firing of frequent shut-downs OF the

placed by the big coke companies OF the

This is the beginning of a movement
that eventually will wipe out foreign

the step in the face of the fact that men
are scarce, but they say that the expense

Deed of q Jealous Man.

New York, Sept. 1S.-Mad with
jealousy of the girl for whom he had
given up military career, country, and
wife, Lieutenant Julius Hoffman, late
of the Austro- Hungarian srmy, early
today shot Miss Drsgs Siegel, his former
colonel's daughter, and then turned the
weapon upon himself only to have the
dying woman dash it from his hand.
Hoffman, handsome man of 81, is at
the east Thirty-fiftb street police station,
apparently little better than a raviug
maniac His wife is in BamenfOrt, w
w., where she has suit pending for
a divorce from her husband and $15, 900
damages from Miss Siegel on the ground
that the latter alienatcd Hofman's af-
fections. Shot just over the heart,
the head and in the shoulder Miss Siegel
is dying in Bellevue Hospital.
Hofman's first shot struck Miss Sieeel
10 the left breast just above the heart
and bis second in the shoulder. The
girl fell and, concluding tina. she was
dead, the former lieutenant pointed the
revolver at bis own head and was about
to pull the trigger when Miss Siegel
staggered to her feet, grappled with him
for the revolver and, and as it WAS dis
charged, received the bullet in bel, own
throat. The third of Hofman's bullets
ranged upward and lodged at the base of
Miss SiegePs skull where it will probably
cause her death in few hours. Miss
Siegel was to have come into her fortune
