Arrest Follows Investigation of
Hartwell Anderson's Death by
Coroner's Jury.
Special TO rhe Timcs-DIspetchl


Newport News. Va. March Mrs.
Lucy NJ. Barnes wife of w. ". Barnes,
a foreman at the shipyard, was ar
tested to-day on the charge of muir
dering Hartwell Anderson, a young
married man, who was shot In Mrs.
Barness bedroom ut her home, TIA
.Twenty-nrst Street. Monday afternoon.
TWO hours after the arrest, a coroner's
jury was empanuclled, and after hear
ing the evidence OF the attending ply
sicians and Chief of Police Mitchell
and Detective Pearson, returned Il YER
diet TO the effect that Anderson came
TO his death from pistol shot wound
and that the jury believed the pistol
was in the hands OF Mrs. Barnes.
Anderson was shot near the right
temple, the ball entering the head
and splitting in two. one-half going
into his brain. and the other half i'm
bedding in his skull. He never re-
gained consciousness. and died at mid
nj ht last night.
1t was not until thirty-six hours
after the shooting that the police be-
gan an investigation, the Barnes wo-
man telling them at the start that An
derson mad come TO her house drunk,
borrowed n pistol and Como to the bed
room and shot himself. She still sticks
to the story.
Jealousy is the motive which the
police ascribe. they claiming that An
derson was friendly with another wo-
man. and that Mrs. Barnes was Jealous
of the other woman. The dead man
leaves a widow and i've little children.
