FAMILY ROW RESULTS
 IN SHOOTING AFFRAY. Sharon Man BIames Wife, Then Ad- nits Doing It Himself

Sharon. Conn, July 4.-Frederick Judd, aged .32, was shot in his home here late last night as the outgrowth of a family quarrel it is said, but there is some uncertainty as to who fired tho shot. The bullet, which was a 3S cali bre, entered the top Of the right shoul- der blade Judd first stated that his wife, Jennie, had shot him. When she was found, however, she declared that he had shot himself, and Judd, after hearing his wife's story, admitted that 1t was correct, and that he had fired the shot.
 After the shooting Judd walked from his home on the Sand Rock road two miles to the village If Lime Rock, where he collapsed in the hotel. He lost much blood during the walk. Dr. Francis Skiff was called and attended the wounded man today According to the statement of the physician and of other persons at the hotel, Judd declar- ed that his wife had shot him.
 As a result of this statement, Depu- ty Sheriff Hornbeck and several men went in search of Mrs. Judd. She was found at the home of an Italian fam ily where with her two children, q boy and girl, she had taken refuge after the shooting. To the officers she was emphatic that her husband fired the shot. On their return with Mrs Judd her story was rehearsed to the husband, who, after hearing, said that it was correct, and that his first story was wrong.
 The matter has been called to the attention of States Attorney Donald T. Warner No arrest has been made, as the authorities were not certain just what steps to take in view of the con- fiicting statements.

 Arny's Tribute to the Dead
 As the last gun of AS sent the echoes clattering about Seminary Ridge anu Round Top. there was solemn silence tbe hush of peace. Old veterans who did not realize perhaps, exactly What was going on stood silent under the spell If the universal feeling lhal seemed to sweep the field. Even the clatter or pots anu pans III ehC AAAN'' tents was hushed and the wells ot cooks about 10 dish up the midday meal lowered to whispers. For five minutes the camp was quiet. Then inc bugle spoke again in notes more joyous. The silken flag leaped up the staff to it's pinnacle and the noises sbo,,+ 4n 0OO men can make resumed their sway-the regular army's tri- b1te to the dead and to the flag of g reunited nation.
 That five minutes silence was prob ably the last formal mark of the semi centennial celebration. Only a teW minutes before President Wilson spoke in the big tent to the veterans in blue and gray. and only a short time at- ter-vards thousands of those who were left began their preparations for de- Nsrture.

TOO FAST FOR WILSON.
President Sends Orders to Engineer to
 Slow Down His Train.


 New York, July 4-President Wilson spent three hours in New York tonight resting at the University club after a thrilling alI-day journey by special train from Washington by way of Gettysburg, where he stopped for an hour to make a brief speech to the Civil war veterans.
 The president was raced across Pennsylvania and New Jersey at a speed sometimes approaching 70 miles an hour Most of the way his train consisted of a private car of steel. wooden day coach and an engine. There was no apparent need for haste, as the presidents schedule did not call for his arrival in New York until SIS tonight, but between Gettysburg and Philadelphia the special train struck up top speed and before the president realized it he was only few miles from the Quaker City He sent in word to have the engineer slow down, and his wishes were needed, The presidents party, however, found that they were two hours ahead or their schedule.
 The presidents first inclination was to make a stop en route for two hours so as to arrive in New York as ar ranged, but he changed his mind and orders were given to make New York by o'clock. The railroad officials cleared the way between Philadelphia and New York and sent the special over a freight track with another burst of speed. The only stops made en route today were for water.
 Just what the reason for the flying trip of the president was could not be learned, a s immediately on his arrival in New York he merely took 8 long automobile ride on Riverside Drive to get a breath of air. as the days ride was through sweltering heat and dust.
 The president boarded a train at the Grand Central terminal at 10.30 o'clock, three quarters of an hour before it was scheduled to leave for Cornish, N. H., where he will join his family.
 New Haven, Conn, July 6.--Presi- dent Wilson's train en route for Cor nish, N. H., passed through here at 1.l6 o'clock this morning.
