suited in the deaths of W. NJ. Mel

Grover Coz. OF San Francisco. and
the latter's daughter Florence, l.

Of it said that when last seen alive
together. Melton and Mrs. Cox had
appeared to be on the best OF terms,
and nothing to Indicate violent
quarrel was heard before the five
shots which resulted in the deaths.
The one theory advanced by the
police i, the possibility that Mrs.
Cox was jealous OF attention Melton
paid her daughter, pretty girl, and,
in appearance more than twelve
years old. .\itcr the shots were fir
cd the little girl wa, heard 10
scream;
"lle shot my mother, He Shot
my mother'
The police. however. believe that
Mrs. Cox did the shooting.
Melton received four wounds, any
one Of which would have proved ia
tai, while Mrs. Cox was shot but
once, and around the wound in her
head were powder marks, indicating
that the revolver had been held very
