IDENTITY OF WOMAN WOUNDED

ESTABLISHED.
.FETzER WAS THE CAUSE
OF the Tragedy, Declares Inspector
Nevin--injured Woman Re-
lated to Attache at Nor
we;gian Embassy

Chicago, July 1S.--The identity OF
the woman shot last Friday afternoon
by Charles w, Rigdon just before he
met death from bullet wound said
ito have been self-inflicted, was
learned positively today to be Mrs.
Emma Young, now residing In Evans.
ton. and step daughter of an at.
tache Of the Norwegian embassy at
Washington.
The young woman known as Mary
Wilson, who was with Mrs. Young at
the time of the shooting, is Miss
Theresa Trojman step sister of the
wounded woman, and who until three
weeks ago was an inmate of a Cath.
olic convent near Washington.
The name of John C. Fetzer, mil.
lionaire Chicago real estate man,
was drawn closely into the tragedy
by a statement of Mrs. Young, who
declared that Rigdon had visited the
real estate office two days before the
shooting% drawn a revolver and
threatened to kill Fetzer.
Following these announcements, an
unverified report was circulated that
Mrs. Annie Rigdon, widow of the
dead man, would file charge of mur.
der against Mrs. Young, and file a
civil suit to ragain stocks and bonds
now held by Mrs. Young and which
Mrs. Rigdon alleges belonged to Rig
don. A prominent attorney has been
engaged by persos whose identity
surrounded the mystery, to defend
Mrs. Young and her step sister from
any charges that may be brought
against them.
A confession was made today by
Mrs. Young who is still dangerously
i'll in the hospital,
She declared that she had been an
employe of Rigdon as a stock sales
man for the last six years. During
this time she made several trips with
him visiting numerous cities in the
country. Her relationship with Rig.
don recently had been severed, she
declared, because of his habits of
drinking.
Rigdon Is charged by Inspector
LAWN with having visited Fetzer's
office with the purpose of killing the
real estate dealer and the woman,
and asserts that Fetzer was the real
cause of the shooting
Rigdon learned that Mrs. Young
had written letters to Fetzer, and de-
clares that Rigdor demanded Fetzer
to produce these letters and explain
to him. The letter addressed to Fet-
ger and found in Rigdons pocket
after his death is said to have been
taken by Rigdon from a bunch of un-
opened letters on the desk of the real
estate man before the latter's arrival
at his office the day II was delivered.
