MARRIAGE DOUBTED,
KILLS SELF AND GIRL
New Yorker Incensed When
Father Questions Legality
of Marriage.

NEW YORK, March 9.-Incensed by
the refusal of his parents to recognize
his second wife until he had proved to
their satisfaction that his first marriage
had been legally dissolved, William Hall,
railroad clerk, late yesterday after
noon shot and killed the second wife.
Mrs. Belle Schwartz Hall, in the dining
room of the Hotel Lenox, at Lenox
avenue and 145th street. He was forty
years old. the woman twenty-four.
AS his wife fell dead at his feet with a
bullet through her heart and another in
her right side, Hall placed the revolver
against his forehead and fired a bullet
into his own brain. He died almost in
stantly.
Until a letter reached the home of
Halls parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John AL
bert Hall, at 7S4 Elton avenue, the
Bronx, three weeks ago, that their son
would return from Chicago in a few
days with "a young woman" little had
been known of his movements since
four years ago he separated from his
first wife, whom he married eleven
years ago, and with whom he had been
living in Newark. ~ J. They had never
heard of Belle Schwartz, and his first
wife, so far as the police have been
able to learn, knew nothing either of
the whereabouts of her missing husband
or OF his second marriage.
Hall took the woman he killed yester-
day to his parents home last Thursday
afternoon and introduced her as his
wife. His parents demanded to know
II he had been divorced from his first
wife. but the only answer they received,
the father said last night, was that his
son had been married four years ago
TO the young woman with whom he was
now living.
Until yesterday afternoon Hall tried
Intellectually to persuade his father to
permit the young woman to return to
the house and live with them. The
father refused, and this. 1t is believed,
led Hall to kill the woman and himself.

to habitual constipation, probably be-

Wasn't Her Papa.

The death of Dave Moffatt calls to
mind a story we heard about him in
Denver ten years ago. He went to
Chicago. He was alone, and when he
stepped from the pullman into the
crowd on the platform a sweet, fluffy
young thing threw herself into his
arms.
"Oh, dad!" she cried, with a series
of ecstatic hugs. "Oh, papa, dear, I'm
so glad to--oh!"
She perceived her error and blushed
painfully, but gloriously. II beg
your pardon" she stammered q
t-th-thought you were my papa. /"
And she tried to escape into the
throng where she could hide her con
fusion. But the gallant empire build
er would have none of such. He still
held her firmly in quasi-paternal
embrace.
Il am not your papa, it is true"
he whispered, tenderly, "but I am 60
ing to play that | am for while.
Don't try to get away from me, my
dear, Pm going to play papa to you
until the police come"
When the police came they restored
Mr.. Moffatt's watch and diamond scarf
pin to him and led the struggling
broiler away-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
