Bride Of Eight
Months Asphyxiated
]. While Awaiting Her
Husband S HomecomilS. ! |.
Mrs j. r. Morton, 800 Ninth Avenue South, Met Trag
Death-Husband Arrived Home to Find Home a
h. House Of Tragedy With Neighbors in Charge.

Whether it was escaping gas that
caused the death or lack of oxygen
in the kitchen which was tightly clos
ed, will probably never be known.
Mr.. Morton had been expected home
on a train that reached Fargo at
1855, No. on the Northern Pacific.
This train was four hours late and he
did not arrive until 1880. When he
reached home he found the scene Of
tragedy, with physicians and neigh
bors in charge.
The shock to the young husband
was pitiful. @
He had come home to discuss with
his wife and mother, the question of
taking them out to the pioneer town
of Killdeer which is the terminal
branch line of the Northern Pacific
which runs north OF Mandan, or hav-
ing them remain in Fargo for some
months until he had gotten perman-
emily located.
age She was beautiful and charm
ing young woman, and by her sweet
womanly qualities had won warm
place in the hearts of many in the
neighborhood Of her home. in the few
months she had resided in Fargo. The
young couple we're devoted to each
other and the whole hearted sympa-
thy OF all who knew them goes out
to Mr.. Morton and his aged mother in
their hour of terrible bereavement
4 The young woman was a member of
the Episcopal faith and yesterday af-
ternoon at o'clock short funeral
services were held at Gethsemane
cathedral Dean Dowling officiating.
Despite the short notice, there were
a large number of sorrowing friends
in attendance and there was pro-
fusion of beautiful floral tributes.
Members of the Cass county bar
acted as pail bearers and did what
little they could to tighten the heavy
burden which Mr.. Morton was called
upon to bear.
Just eight months to day after
he led his wife as a bride to the altar,
Mr., Morton, accompanied by his
mother, departed from Fargo to take
her remains back to the city where
thew were so happily married. They
left on No. 4 on the Northern Pacific,
yesterday afternoon.

One Of the saddest tragedies in the
history of the northwest occurred last
Saturday night or early Sunday morn
Ing, when Mrs. j. r., Morton, bride
of but eight months, was asphyxiated.
She was waiting the homecoming Of
her husband who had been at Killdeer,
in the western part of the state for a
month and who arrived home two
hours after his wtfe's death was dis
covered. The accident happened at the
family home. 909 Tenth avenue south.
Mr.. Morton is a young attorney who
came to Fargo Get. u and opened law
offices here. A month ago he decided
to remove to Killdeer, n. D., believing
there were better prospects in the new
town for a young attorney than in
Fargo. He returned on his first visit
to find his wife a corpse.
1t is probable that 1t will never be
known just what caused the death, al
though the physicians found evidences
of asphyxiation. Mr.. Mortons moth
er, Mrs Margaret J. Morton, was MAX
ing her home with the young couple,
and in the absence of the husband the
two women were alone in the house.
The elder Mrs. Morton, who is 73 years
of age, had retired for the night.
Mrs. Morton junior, in preparation
for the Homecoming, went down to the
Kitchen TO heat the water In the tank
in the kitchen which supplied the hot
water for the house. The tank was
heated by a gasoline heater. She had
turned the hot water on.
Mrs. Morton, sr., was aroused about
J:30 and thought she heard moan.
The young woman had been subject to
having trouble at night and had told
the older woman to call to her, If she
heard her restless in the night. The
older woman called and hearing no re-
sponse. went down stairs where she
found the body of the young woman
lying on the kitchen floor.
Mrs. Morton, sr,, had strength
enough to telephone to a neighbor and
a doctor and she swooned. Two doc
tors were called and everything pos
s!ble done, but the young woman was
already dead. The elderly woman
was probably overcome more by the
shock than gas fumes, as she re-
covered quickly and completely,

The orders to strike were issued aft
er an all day conference yesterday OF
the union leaders, tho traction com.
pany officials and Mayor Thompson in
a vain attempt to bring about arbitra-
ton. Neither side would yield.
The strikers had demanded the
guarantee Of wage increase. The Of
ficials said 1t would mean an increase
of $1,400,O0O annually.
W. D. Mahon, the international pres
ident of the street car union, attended
the conference. Officials said no at
tempt would be made to operate the
cars today. Approximately 100000

added to the steam road schedules.
