 The lobby was full of bank depos- ltors at the time but 30 suddenly did the tragedy happen that 1t was over before interference was possible.
 The woman was Mrs. E. c. So- bel handsome and richly gowned. She is the wife of E. C. Sobel, an advertising solicitor on the directory of the Pacific Telephone & Tele- graph Co.
 Mrs. sobel, so 1t is alleged, had for some time been carrying on clandestine love affair with William Matthews, a tramp chaffeur She killed Pratt because he had revealed her relations with Matthews to MT. Sobel. the latter telling his wife that Pratt was his informant
 Previously to obtaining the in- formation Sobel had become sus picious of his wifes relations with Matthews, had sought information from Pratt because of the latter's Intimacy with Matthews who was formerly a chauffeur for the Pratt family.
 Pratt and his sister, Elizabeth, were foundlings, both having been adopted by Leudrous and Louise Pratt, well known citizens who live in the Cowen Park district. Leo Pratt was only 19 and highly TO 
 garded by the bank officials.
 The Pratts and the sobels lived in the same fashionable part of the city and were intimate. The trag- edy has caused sensation as all parties concerned are prominent.

 Leudrous Pratt, issued the follow Ing statement today; My son had been warned by both Mir. and Mrs. Sobel to watch out for his life. This was after Leo had been inter- viewed by Sobel and his lawyer con corning Mrs. Sobel's relations with William Matthews. a spaniard, and a chaffeur who had been driving Cowen Park jitney owned by me. Leo had told Sobel and his attorney what he knew of the relations be- tween Mrs. sobel and Matthews be- cause Matthews had talked to him about their intimacy.
 "I knew of the couples relations and ] discharged Matthews last Saturday, a week ago today. sey- eral days ago Sobel was consider ing divorce action and that is why he went to the bank to find out from my boy what he could.
 Leo was an innocent victim of. circumstances. told him to stay away from the post office corner. where the iitney bus made it's stand because I believed that Mat thews instead of the woman might do the lad harm.
 "When Sobel went to the bank for information, Leo called up his moth CT and asked her if he should tell what he knew about Matthews and the woman, and his mother told him he had better tell the truth.
 "He did tell the truth and paid for 1t with his life"
