 Before He and Wife Slain

Chicago, July 1S.-H. J. Mcintyre, negro religious fanatic, becoming violently insane today, killed four persons and wounded three others with rifle before the police, whom he held at bay for an hour. killed him and his wife.
 In all, McIntyre's hallucination that he must "carry my report to the AL mighty" cost six lives.
 The dead:
 Stuart Dean. 60 years old, police man; shot in neck.
 Mrs. Josephine Overmeyer, 2S years old, neighbor; shot in breast.
 Edward Knox, 34 years old, negro, neighbor; shot in chest.
 Alfred Matthews, 30 years old neighbor, negro; found dead on porch of his home.
 H. J. Mcintyre, negro. the crazed man, 30 years old, shot by police; died in hospital

 Edward Clement, detective ser geant, 46 years old; three bullet wounds, serious.
 Grover Crabtree, policeman, 27 years old; wounds in wrist and el- bow; not serious.
 Sadie Knox, 40 years old, wife of Edward Knox, bullet wound in back; serious.
 McIntyre's wife is supposed to have assisted him at least to the extent of reloading his weapons, as cartridge belt was found around her waist sim liar to the one worn by her husband.
 Policemen Use Dynamite.
 Hundreds of shots were exchanged in his flat ill two-story brick struc- ture at 320 North Irving avenue, and the police. The latter made an in- effectual attempt to burn the place, and exploded three charges of dyna- mite under it, as they were unable to make headway against the rapid and accurate fire of the negro.
 The explosions blew the rear porch and part of the kitchen into the alley, and when the police were able to en- ter the building it was wreck. They found an explanation of McIntyre's deed in a note which he left scram- bled in lead pencil on soiled piece of brown wrapping paper. "The Almighty God has made me a prophet unto all nations and also my wife, Hattie Mcintyre" ran the note. "You shall know that the Lord has sent me to gather unto the Lord the remnant of the Adannic seed" (At this place in the scrawl the negro wrote the capital "C's" and the initials "P. H.")
 "The Lord has made me the savior of all Africans of America, and now shall recommend all that are worthy unto my Heavenly Father, the Great God of all creation. The Lord has l given mo a spirit to judge the quick

and the dead.
 q must die in this land that I may carry my reports unto Almighty God concerning the land of the United States"
 In the opinion of Police Captain Wesley Westbrook, Mcintyre wrote the letter just before becoming vio- lent, although he had opportunity to do so during lulls in the fighting.
 Policeman Describes Fight.
 Frank Freemuth, a policeman, told this story of the fight:
 Stuart Dean was shot when he entered the building after breaking down a rear door. I and four other policemen were with him, but he was the first to enter. He was shot and killed the instant he crossed the threshold. Clement and Crabtree were shot when they entered to re- cover Deans body. Both fell, and we had to go in and get the three of them.
 "The crazy negro was barricaded behind a trunk and other articles when we came in. He had rifle and a revolver, and fired rapidly"
 The Knox woman gave this ver- sion:
 ''I was awakened about o'clock by shouts and screams" she said. "1 awakened my husband, and we found that the screams came from woman
