sHooTINGs BY ANGRY MAN.
Carroll L. James Ran Amuck at Penns
boro, w. Va.

Parkersburg, w. Va, Oct. 3l.--Carroll
L. James, a railroad conductor of this
city, shot and killed his father-in- law,
William Pritchard, probably fatally
wounded his mother-in law, slightly in
jured his wife and committed suicide
yesterday at Pennsboro, w. Va, Ritehie
county. James broke into the Pritchard
home while his victims slept He made
no effort to harm his 4-year-old daugh-
ter, who occupied the bed with her moth
er and grandmother.
The tragedy followed series of SEN
sational occurrences in this city about
six weeks ago, when James shot Sey-
mour Kuhn Of Fairmont, w. Va, a fell
low railroader, who 1t is alleged he found
with his wife at the James home.
Kuhns injury was slight. James brought
suit for divorce and Mrs. James brought
counter suit During the taking of
depositions in the suits, Mrs. James
gave evidence which resulted in the ar
rest of her husband and an express mes
senger, on the charges of conspiracy to
defraud the United States Express com.
pany.
James, it is said, became much en-
bittered against his wife and her family.
and threatened that he would "kill the
whole Pritchard tribe"
He quietly forced his way into the
Pritchard home at Pennsboro early in
the morning and entered the room occu-
pied by his wife, his .young daughter
and his mother-in-law Without words
he began firing at the two women. One
bullet struck Mrs. Pritehard in the arm
and another struck Mrs. james in the
hip. James then stepped into the next
bedroom and saw his father-in-law ris
ing from the bed. He fired and the
bullet passed through Pritchard's mouth,
killing him instantly Returning to the
other room James found his wife gone,
but his mother-in-law still there. He
shot her twice more. the bullets lodg-
ing in her left foot and right arm.
James then went in pursuit of his wife
and came upon her short distance from
the house. He had two reyolvers, but
the cylinders of both were empty, so
he caught his wife by the throat and
choked her.
As the woman sank to the ground
with her young child holding to her
skirts crying, James beat and kicked her.
He fled only on the approach of neigh
Dor, who heard the child's cries.
James ran back to the Pritchard home,
reloaded one Of the revolvers and killed
himself.
A eoroner's inquest was held at day
light and verdict of murder and sui
eide was returned.
Mrs. James and Mrs. Pritchard were
brought to hospital here. 1t was said
last night that Mrs Pritchard may die,
but Mrs. James will recover.

PUSHED ASIDE By AuTo.
Francis Cook Is Lucky He Can Still
Occupy a Padded Chair.

Francis Cook, the twelve-year-old son
of Mrs. Mary Cook of II First street,
had an experience late yesterday after
noon which nearly cost him his life, In
company with other boys Of the same
age, young Cock was accustomed to wait
for passing street cars in front of the
Lynham grocery store near his home and
Jump on the steps for short ride. Late
yesterday afternoon, after riding for q
short distance, the Cook boy started to
alight from the car near the corner OF
Third and North Main streets. He failed
to retain his balance on touching the
ground and fell directly in the path of
an approaching automobile.
Fortunately for the boy, the machine
was moving only at a moderate pace
and he was only pushed to one side Of
the street. Neighbors carried Cook to
his home and DIR. P. s. Duffy was sum
moned. Here it was found that a deep
cash on the right side of the head and
a bruise on the left side totaled the lads
injuries. To-day he is able to occupy
a well-padded chair in the front window.
In relating his experience this forenoon,
the boy said that he had decided to for
swear the pleasure of taking short rides
on the car. The automobile in the case
belongs to a Montpelier man, and no
blame is attached to the driver who had
charge of the machine yesterday.
