man, who last night fell q victim to a

Burton was employed with Lord &

From what has been gathered by
twelve years with the U. S. quarter

this time being spent in the Philip
pines. 1t is believed that a report
was received by Miss Snyder to the
effect that Burton had entered into
relations with a Filipino woman while
dwelling in Americas farthermost

NO CHANCE FOR
Federal FOOD
:. OFFICE !.

Stating briefly that il will not be
possible for the federal authorities to
continue the pure food laboratory in
the territory even under a proposed
agreement whereby the territory was
10 stand half of the expenses for such
laboratory, the secretary Of agricul-
ture, in a eablegram addressed TO
Territorial Secretary E.. A. Mott
Smith. has apparently put an end to
all hopes of the re-establishmaht of a
federal pure food laboratory in the
territory. 1884, - -" r.. ::
The cablegram of the secretary OF
agriculture was in response to an Of
fer on the part of the territory TO bear
one-half OF the expenses OF federal
representative and likewise to fit him
up with a suitable laboratory in a
room on the second floor Of the board
of health building. A bill was pre-
pared yesterday asking the legisla-
ture for an appropriation of $500 for
the purpose of properly furnishing
such room. 1t Is not known for
what reason the secretary Of agricul-
ture refused to accept the offer OF the
territorial authorities.
The removal of the federal pure
food representative at this time is
particularly to be regretted, it is said,
for the reason that the representa-
tive takes with him valuable labora-
tory apparatus and records. DR.. ]. S.
B. Pratt, when seen yesterday, de-
clared that he has been doing every
thing within his power to induce the
federal authorities to leave man in

10 direct witnesses to the tragedy, it
is generally accepted that quarrel
followed the meeting of the, pair yes
terday afternoon. "A -. =.
Four shots were fired from the re-
volTer by Burton. The first entered
the woman's body near the base OF
the neck and passed through the lung
and heart, leaving near the breast.
The police are inclined to the theory
that the second shot aimed at the wo-
man went wild of the mark, as she is
believed to have dropped in her
tracks in attempting to leave the lanai
of the Adeline home. +
Burton then turned the gun upon
himself, the shot taking effect in his
left temple and passing through the
head, resulted in instant death. A
convulsiye contraction of the muscles
of the hand may have caused the
fourth bullet to speed wide of any
mark, as no evidence of the last shot
save the empty cartridge is shown.

part of the night at Wahiawa in at

the body of the woman to be brought
