Inquest Brings

OF the Shooting
Mrs. c. ]. Beedle, Who Shot Husband
and Killed Self, Was Jealous
of Husband.

HOLDREGE, Neb., Sept. n - Especial
Telegram) - Following a distinctly strong
sentiment, Coroner D. S. Palmer today
called an inquest to look into the death of
Mrs. c. j. Beedle OF this city. who yester-
day dangerously wounded her husband and
killed herself.
Six of the leading business men of the
city were summoned to. the Beedle home,
where the investigation was conducted
for mhis bed. The well-known lawyer told
the story of the events which preceded yes
terday's tragedy. His story was practically
the same as he told to Drs. Palmer and An
drews last night. He declared that he did
not see Mrs. Beedle when he attempted to
gain admittance to a room in which she
had hidden and into which he hoped to
enter by passing through another room. He
said that the first intimation he had of her
proximity to him was a binding flash and
a report from the revolver which she had.
The bullet struck him, and the next instant
he fell to the floor, and when he recovered
he saw his wife lying in a pool of blood
only a few feet away. He managed to
stsgger to the door and summon neighbors
to his assistance.
A letter found this morning seems to in
dictate that the deed was premeditated on
the part Of the wounded lawyers wife. 1t
