MARKET IS SCORED
BY CITIZENS GROUP
West End Body Asks Investi-
cation of 5000 Repair
Job on K Street.

Severely condemning market man
agement and the plans for improve
ment at the Western Municipal Market,
Twenty-first and K streets, the West
End Citizens Association passed reso-
luton last night asking the District
Commissioners to investigate the Dis
trict Department Of Weights and Meas
ureS.
Grover w. Ayres, who has investi-
gated the renovation work at the West
ern Market condemned the work as
incompetently supervised and con-
structed. OF the $4,000 appropriated
by Congress $4,000, which was ex-
pended for the construction Of butcher
stands, he said, is total loss, as the
new stands are untitled for wholesale
butcher work, Mr.. Ayres openly criticized
George M. Roberts, the market master.
At present Western Market butchers,
who have been deprived Of their stalls
because of the renovation, are operating
at produce stands, which seriously limit
their patronage and business, Mr.. Ayr0S
continued. Immediate occupation of the
partly completed new stalls was urg-
emily demanded by Mr.. Ayres.
At the proposal OF Henry K. Bush
Brown, The association also passed a
resolution asking the Federation of Citi-
zens' Associations to name committee
to investigate taxation of land and
tenure in the District of Columbia. Mr..
Brown suggested that the Federal and
District government purchase suburban
tracts Of land to be held in perpetuity
under lease to occupants, thereby elimi-
mating private tenure of land, in out
lying districts, and facilitating city ex-
panSton.

MAN NEAR DEATH
. FROM OWN BULLET
Wife Whom He Shot Twice
During Quarrel Is Ex-
pected to Recover.

John William Waugh, 81 years cid, Of
Kensington, Md, was still lowering be-
tween life and death at Casualty Hos
pital this morning suffering from q
self-inflicted bullet wound in the head
when he turned a gun on himself after
shooting his 30-year-old wife Marion
through the face, near Fourteenth and
L streets southeast, yesterday. Their
8-year-old daughter Barbara witnessed
the shooting.
The bullet entered the back of the
mans head and penetrated his skull.
Hospital physicians hold little hope for
his recovery.
The wife was less seriously injured,
one bullet piercing her right wrist and
another entering the left side of her
face and, continuing on, coming out
the other side. She is in Providence
Hospital, where, 1t was said this morn
ing, she spent a fairly comfortable
night" She Is expected to recover.
The shooting, according to the wife,
was the outgrowth of an argument
which ensued shortly after the couple
met by agreement on the street corner
yesterday to discuss matters pertaining
to the child. Mrs. Waugh said she
arranged the meeting with her husband,
intending to appeal to the latter to fur
nish her enough money to purchase
shoes and clothing for their little girl
so she could enter school next week.
Mrs. Waugh said she and her
estranged husband had quarreled con-
tinually and they have been separated
many times during their married life.
After the recent separation, several
weeks ago, Mrs. Waugh lived with her
married sister at 1885 L street south
east, while her husband lived with his
mother and father in Kensington.

that he Is not an 'anti-Christ.'
II never advised him against his wife,

I did advise him, though, that If there
was some one In his home coming be-

ask them to leave.

willing and eager for the task
Mrs. Coates described as ridiculous
the charges that she had induced Burn
hart to leave his home or to institute
divorce proceedings. She denied also
that she had advised him to forfeit
payments on his home, SO that it might
be sold at auction, as was set out In
her suit.
Mrs Coates further expressed indig-
nation at newspaper headlines which
had referred to her as love pirate"
and to other references to love trt-
