keokuk Horse Trader Went to St. Francisvlle
Mo-, and Enacted Tragedy There Early
This Morning
CARRIED OUT THREAT MADE MARCH 81
Left Keokuk Last Evening and Walked From
Alexandria, Distance of IL Miles Shot
Wife Three Times

Conn, and himself at Ave o'clock this
morning by shooting her through the
left breast three times and himself
once behind the right ear, any of the
four shots would have produced in
slant death. Conn came from Canton,
Mo-, to Alexandria on the 2 O'Clock
morning train and walked to st. Fran
cisville and went to the home of Har-
vey Nye where his wife was visiting
Mrs. Nye, being her sister Mrs Conn
was q daughter of Robert Harrison,
who lives near Keokuk, and she now
has divorce suit pending in the dis
trict court at Keokuk, and Conn had
told her If she secured a divorce he
would kill her. The folks were all in
bed and he walked into the house
and asked Mrs. Nye where Lizzie was,
and was told she was in the west
room. He walked through the door
and kicked her on the side of the head
while in bed, and told her to get up.
They have a girl years old who was
with her mother. Conn has a sister
near Muscatine, and the Harrison's at
one time lived in St Francisville.
The inquest Is being held but nothing
is expected in the verdict more than
has been stated. Conn was, in oc-
cupation, something of horse trader
and junk peddler, and very few peo-
pie around ST. Francisville even
knew the man.

To Carry out His Threat.

1t was for the purpose of carrying
out his threat that Conn went to st.
Francisville last evening. His wife
had been living there while he was
in and out of Keokuk and was pre-
pairing for the show he was to leave
with.
II is thought that he left Keokuk on
the x and w train at 9:10 o'clock
last evening. riding as far as Alex
andria. In company with him there is
said to have been young fellow about
sixteen years of ago, who is supposed
to have been connected with the show.
The journey from Alexandria to ST.
Francisville. distance of twelve
miles, was made by foot, thus delay
ing the arrival OF Conn at the home
where his wife was staying until an
early hour this morning.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1911-05-19

With his mind bent on carrying out
the threat which he had made on
March 81, David Conn left Keokuk
shortly after o'clock yesterday even
ing and this morning at 8 o'clock
stood on the threshold of the house at
which his wife was staying in st.
Francisville, Mo-, and shot her three
times as she fed to escape his -eng-
eance. He then turned the 32-caliber
revolver to his cwn head and shot
himself dead Both the man and wife
died almost instantly.
The tragedy was enacted at the
home of Harvey Nye, brother-in-law
of Mrs. Conn, where she had been
living for the past few weeks. Mr..
Nye was in bed at the time and was
powerless to prevent the commission
of the crime.

Greedy for Her Death.

That the man had an Unsuitable de-
sire for the death Of his wife Is evi.
denced by the manner in which he
shot her. She was awakened by his
arrival at the home and as she came
from her room was unconscious of the
tragedy in store for her. Seeing her,
Conn, standing near the doorway of
the house, uttered a few. maniacal
cries and began emptying the cham
bers of the revolver. The first bullet
pierced the woman's left breast and
she half turned to flee. AS she was
falling two more bullets entered her
body and she fell prone upon the
floor, dying after few gasps.
The murderer then unhesitatingly
held the weapon to his own head and
committed suicide. The shooting
awakened Mr. Nye and his wife, who
came rushing from their rooms.
Neighbors were attracted by the shots
and great excitement was immediate
ly occasioned. Many Of them came
running to the house and the little
village was in state of unrest dur
ing the entire day.
