NEW YORK, July 21.-W. L. Waugh,

died here of pneumonia. Mr. Waugh
was born in Fulton. n. Y, in 1860. and
began his telegraph career as a mes
senger bov at the age of twelve. He
was graduated as an operator for the
Western Union at the age of fourteen,
and after a few years of varied en-
ployment entered the service of the
Associated Press. Owing to i'll health
he was placed on the retired list of
the Associated Press a few weeks ago.
Waugh's beautiful Morse" is a ira
dition not only in the Associated Press
service, but among telegraphers every
where. For many years he was the
sending operator in New York on the
first main trunk circuit between New
York and Chicago. and on all special
occasions, such as national conventions,
he was the sender on what is known
as the bulletin wire"
Ill health prevented his detail to the
recent national conventions, and for
the first time in twenty years the AS
sociated Press was without the serv-

the burning to death Of his wife early
yesterday morning in the fire which de-
stroyed his home, 2. E. Keister attempt
ed suicide at the home of his brother,
in Berkeley Ward.
The charred body of Mrs. Keister was

had to jump for his life.
Later he learned that his wife had
not left the building. He believes she
went to the garret to recover valuable
papers in an old trunk.

tiles of practically the entire detective
force, failed to develop any clues to
warrant the report circulated that Mr..
Keister murdered his wife, tried to hide
his crime by firing the residence, and,
failing, attempted to commit suicide.
Fire of Incendiary Origin.
The discovery that the home had been
set on fire in two places, in the attic
and on the first floor; the discovery of a
piece of wood in the garret, where Mrs.
Kester's charred remains were found
believed to be stained with blood and
hair. and an old lamp with the top re-
moved and kerosene soaked piece of
carpet. gave rise to the report that the
case was one of murder and attempted
suicide.
On the other hand, it is declared that
Mr.. Keister's story. previous to shoot
ing himself, bears out the sta - vents of
neighbors aroused by the lat.
