MILLIONAIRE, SHOT
BY CHAUFFEUR, DIES
J. J. Moore Before Death Ad-
mitted He Fired First When
He Saw Wife in Auto.

SAN FRANCISCO. January 2s.-J J.
Moore. wealthy clubman and coal dealer,
who was shot Saturday night in q re-
volver duel with Samuel L. Timothy, a
chauffeur, near the residence Of Mrs.
Moore. in Hillsboro, a suburb, died last
night.
Several months ago Moore sued for
divorce, charging cruelty and other things,
but did not specifically accuse his wife of
misconduct. Mrs. Moore filed a cross
complaint, asking for divorce on the
ground of cruelty. The court denied a
divorce to either. Mrs. Moore was
charged with many offenses and too much
familiarity with servants and Others and
serious counter-charges were made. Tim
othy was one of the witnesses for Mrs.
Moore.
The divorce suit attracted unusual at
tentiOn because the name of Rear Ad-
miral Thomas s. Phelps. retired, was
brought into the case in Moore's cross
complaint.
Saturday night Moore was called to his
home by a detective whom he had en-
ployed to watch his wife, who has occu-
pied the home since their separation. he
lay in wait at the gate of the grounds,
and about 1890 Timothy drove up in his
employers machine. Mrs. Moore was in
the car with him. 1t is said. Moore jumped
from his place of cOncealment and opened
fire. Timothy leaped from the car and
took refuge behind trees and fired one
shot. The shot struck Moore in the ab-
domen, passing through his liver. Tim
othy surrendered to the police.
Moore's Version.
Moore's statement of the affair, made
Saturday night, was given out in full by
City Attorney Kirkbride yesterday. 1t
followt:
81 have been living at the Pacific Union
Club in San Francisco since my separa-
ton from my wife, but have made several
trips here to watch her. Last night, ly-
ing in wait near the house, I saw her in
the machine with this chauffeur. ! stop
ped the car, and ordered her to get out.
She refused, and ] opened fire.
In an interview yesterday, Mrs. Moore
denied that she had been out riding with
Timothy.
when the time comes l can prove IT,
she said. II was in my house all even
ing. My husband was insanely jealous OF
me, and last nights happenings were
his part. After our divorce was denied in
Redwood City. he threatened to kill all of
my witnesses at the trial. Timothy was
one Of those witnesses"
Timothy Son Of Wealthy Man.
Samuel L. Timothy is the son of a
wealthy horse dealer of Chicago, and
has wife and child living in that
city, according to Maude Lillian Coop
er-Gray, a music hall singer, now ap-
pearing here
District Attorney Franklin Swartz of
San Mateo county said last night that
since Moore'e statement made it clear
Moore had fired first Timothy probably
never would be convicted of murder,
although such charge would be
brought against him.
1t was said that Moores friends
would insist on Timothy's prosecution.

NEW YORK, January 29.-The heavy

and I1ehigh Valley from 16OA to ISL.
The improvements otherwise were not SO
pronounced and buying decreased as
the list hardened. Lackawana advanced
points.
The activity and weakness of the stock
market during the morning indicated that
the force of the selling movement which
set in late last week had not spent itself.
There were few points Of strength in
the list and efforts to bid up New York
Central. Reading and Lehigh Valley met
with success at times. but the undertone
was consistently weak. The feeling of
bearishness was emphasized by prophe-
cies that the quarterly statement Of the
United States Steel Corporation to be Is
sued tomorrow would be unfavorable.
Heavy Professional Selling.
Heavy professional selling was re-
sumed. and the major portion Of the
list sold well below the previous low
level before the decline was checked.
