SHOT AND KILLED
BY JOHN B. SNEAD
Latter Lay in Wait for Man
Who Stole His Wife in
November.

FORT WORTH, Tex, Sept. 15-The
sensational elopement last November OF
Mrs. John Beal snead. wife of n.illion-
aire banker of Amarillo, and AL. G..
Boyce. jr.. son of a Millionaire ranch
owner, caused another tragedy yester-
day when John Beal Snead shot Boyce
to death. Snead last spring slew AL. @.
Boyce ST., In this city because. the
ment.
The Staying of Boyce was carefully
planned. Disguised as a hunter, 3nead
this afternoon, stood in front of a
church that he knew Boyce usually
passed In returning to, his home The
fact that Snead carried shotgun at
tracted no particular notice, because Of
his garb. Boyce did not see mis- fos
until Snead raised the gun. Death was
almost instantaneous.
The killing today was but another
mark in the trail of tribulatioa and
death that has followed the runaway
escapade Of Mrs. Snead and Boyce.
After their disappearance from Texas
last November Snead traced the fleeing
couple through a number of the North
ern States and finally located them in
Canada.
The couple were arrested in Win
nipeg. but the Canadian government

which they were held.
They were released, with the intI-
nation that they would be deported as
undesirable citizens IL they did no. of
their own accord cross the boundary
line.
In January of this year they left
Canada. stopping for a short time In
Minneapolis.
Mrs. Snead is beautiful. She Is thirty
years old. while her husband is iorty.
They have two children-a son, ten,
and a daughter, six
Boyce. a graduate of Princeton. was
thirty-five. He had known Mrs. Snead
since his boyhood, but It was not sus-
pected that they loved each other un-
til on November last they boarded
an interurban car for Dallas and took
d train there for st. Louis.
Before starting on their trip Boyce
had drawn 800 900 cash from banks
in Fort Worth and Amarillo. Mrs.

MILK DEALERS JOIN
IN RESISTANCE TO
COURT PROCEEDING
Dade Declares He Repre-
sents All in Action Which
Is Test Case.

That the milk dealers of washington
are making q concerted fight against
action taken against them by the
health authorities of the District de-
veloped when Charles @. Dade a dealer
who Is fighting test case through the
courts, declared that he was merely
representing the dealers as a body, and
that 1t was not case involving him
alone '..
IF am guilty all the dealers are
guilty" he declared. "If I am not. they
are not.
Il have received a great deal of noto-
iiety In this matter that strikes me as
being rather unfair infview OF the fact
that / am fighting for all the dealers az
their representative. From newspaper
accounts, It would seem that I alone am
involved, and such an impression tends
to hurt my business.
Though 1t may appear that there
are any number OF cases against
Charles g. Dade." he continued, "such
Is not really the case. There is but
one action. This is on a sample of
milk taken in March, 1911, and alleged
to contain dirty animal substance, this
assumption being based upon the num-

In II. l have never yet paid a fine in
the case, and I don't think / will.
The case was tried In June. 1872 and,
though fine was assessed, the case
was held over pending decision by the
Court of Appeals. A few days ago !
appeared before Judge Mullowny. who
held against me, and put up a bond OF
500 pending decision by the higher
court -o
IT am representing the milk dealers
as a body, a sum of $3.50 having been
raised by assessment to fight the case
through the courts. We wanted only
a total of $3.50, but the larger sum was
subscribed when wagon assessment
was agreed upon to make the dona-
tions proportionate between large and
small dealers. Each man paid 81 per
wagon.
"It is our contention that we should
be protected by the health authorities.
AS a matter Of fact, l do not own a
single COW. and do not produce a drop
of milk the year round: take the
milk as I get II from the farmers and
distribute II. The health authorities
are supposed to inspect the milk-pro-
ducing centers and to see that only
wholesome milk comes to market. We
cannot ourselves test each can Of milk
