When Goodlet M. Palmer, thirty
seven years old. a salesman of 2026

no longer could live without his wife,
Blanche, and their eighteen-year-old
daughter Ruth, he resolved te kill her

He realized that a reconciliation was
unlikely, for he had been refected en
several previous occasions and told te
remain away. .
Mrs. Palmer and her daughter had
been preparing supper at their home;
1305 Pike street. They had both come
out te sit en the perch for a' few min

Palmertappearcd. The wife, alarmed,
ran into the house and up the stairs.
Palmer brushed bv the dnnshtpr nltil
'saw his wife at the second-story stairs
landing. "Sit down," he said, mounting
tnc stairs, "i want te speak te you."
"What for?" asked 'Mrs. Palmer as
she ltd the way into the front room.
"I' want you te come back and live
wlth'W." '
' Daughter Hears Shots
Ruth, the daughter, beard this much
of the conversation while husband and
wife were in the hallway. The daugh

between the nalr after that in iinknnnm
It is believed Mrs. Palmer refused her
nuseanas pica 10 return te mm. Bhe
was sitting in a rocking chair,
Palmer opposite her. He drew an au
tomatic and fired.
The first shot utruck the woman in
the left breast below the heart and pen
etrated the lung. She rose unsteadily
from her chair, and he fired again, the
second shot entering -the lower abdo
men. Mrs. Palmer stumbled) te the stairs
and down te the first fleer, where her
daughter waited In terror. -
"My Ged, he's shot me," said Mrs.
Palmer, and collapsed in her daugh
ter's arms. s
A moment later there was another
shot up&tulrs. Palmer had locked him
self loathe bathroom and fired a bullet
through his head.
Neighbors ealled the police. Motor
cycle men arrived first, barst dewu the
deer of the bathroom and called a
patrol. Husband and wife, both still
olive, were sent te St. Luke s Hospital.
Palmer died at 11 o'clock last night,
never regaining consciousness.

Pinehet, Republican nominee for Gov Gov

opening of bis campaign, before hun
dreds of farmers, their friends and rel
atives, plainly, declared today that he
was prepared te appeal directly te the
people of Pennsylvania if the next

Pinehet knows that the old-time bl
partisan bosses still have hopes of
making him and his platform Ineffective
by means efs their supposed control of
the Legislature. Mr. Pinehet insists
that the Governer must have the sup
port of the Lceislaturc. '"
He just as emphatically said that he
would net deal with the Legislature,
in the wav bosses have been occustemed
te be dealt with en Capitel Hill fn the
past, nut that instead he would "put

The Pinehet slogan right new is "a

When a guard, Geerge A. Schoell Scheell Schoell
kepf. charged the locks en the deer
of Edwards' cell, the latter pointed
a revolver at him. "Threw up your
bends," he shouted.
Schoellkepf replied by banging the
wooden deer Inte the man's face. Ed
wards then fired five shots, each of
which pierced the deer. Schoellkepf,
unarmed at the time, ran te the prison
office, fifty feet distant, for ibis re

Edwards, slipping his hand through
the iron""grating of the inner celUdoer,
slipped back the heavy belt. The two
men met in the prison corridor, and
a terrific battle followed. When both
weapons jammed after several shots
had been-ircd. the revolvers were used
as clubs'. Edwards was shot through
the right hand. Schoellkepf escaped
bullet wounds, but was severely beaten

her malinger, Geerge Jules Dalbcr, has
vlelntcd his ngrcement with her nnd has
centfactcd-wltli Mmc. Wnlaska te ar

opera singer.
In addition te Mndsme Walska. the
plaintiff names as defendants Hareld
F. McCermk-k, whom she charges with
aiding Ganna walska in obtaining tne
services of her manager, and Dalbcr,
whose New Yerk address is given as

The preparation of the plaintiff's ac

Washington, Sept. 7. A petition for
an Injunction wns filed today In the

Charles P. Ferd, secretary, which
would restrain Gorden and, Snyder from
enforcing within the District of Co
lumbia the prevision of the blanket in
junction against striking railway mca,
issued te Attorney General Daugherty
in Chicago last week.
The plaintiffs state that neither be
fore nor since the first day of July this
year have they committed any- unlawful
acts incident te the strike of railway
shepmen. The brotherhood and Presi
dent Neenan wcre named in Atteruty
General Daugherty's injunction.
The petition was set for hearing be -.
fere Justice Bailey next Saturday. The
petition asserted that the only knowl knewl knowl
edge the plaintiffs had of the previsions
of the Chicago injunction had been
gained from newspaper reports. Ointhe
basis of this information they averred
that the injunction was "issued with
out authority or law" and was without
effect in the District of Columbia.
There are no conferences' new- in
progress between leaders of the railroad
strike and railroad presidents, and none
have been held since the formal gath
erings in New Yerk last month, Mr.
Neenan asserted today.
