KILLS WIFE THEN
TRIES TO TAKE
HIS OWN LIFE
Charles Stouffer Accuses Wo
man of Being Untrue, Then
Sends Bullets Into Her
It a fit of jealousy. Charles Stoufter
shot and killed his wife, Clara, early
Sunday morning:. He then turned the
revolver on himself and endeavored
to take his own life. They lived at
272 Briggs street, where they moved
but a short time ago. Mrs. Stouffer
was employed by Mayor E. S. Meals
as housekeeper until the time of his
ileath. Stouffer is in the Harrisburg
Hospital in a semlserious condition.
He has regained consciousness and
will doubtless live to stand trial for
the crime.
Stouffer, who has been serving a
month's suspension for running past
a signal on the Pennsylvania Hailroad
where ho is employed as an engineer,
had recently been drinking, according
to the testimony or the people who
knew him and his wife.
Itrenkn Down Door
Mrs. Stouffer Went home about 11
o'clock Saturday night. A short time
later, Mias Alice Calder, a boarder
with the family, heard Stouffer ac
cusing hi* wife of being with another
man, which she denied. A blow and
a scream and Mrs. Stouffer came run
ning to Miss Calder's room. The pair
barred the door and piled chairs
against it to keep the man from en
tering.
Stouffer hurled his weight against
the door, breaking it in as his wife
fled to the balcony. He followed,
overtook her and fired two shots. Both
missed but roused the neighborhood. '
ProtentM Innocence
Mrs. Stouffer's rrenzled cries of
"Don't shoot, Charley!" brought sev
eral dozens of people who attempted
to enter the house in time to prevent
Stouffer from carrying out his threats.
Mrs. Stouffer ran from the balcony to
the kitchen, where her husband over
took her and fired a shot that pene
trated her brain and then fired an
other as the body fell to the floor.
Her dying words protested innocence
of her husband's accusations, saying
she was out with Nell, meaning Chief
uf Police Wetzel's wife, who is a sis
ter-in-law.
Tlie police were notified, but Motor
cycle Officer Shelhaus and Patrolman
Pointed arrived too lote to prevent
Stouffer from attempting his own life.
The bullet entered the right temple
end came out the eye, but missed the
brain. He had another loaded re
volver in liis pocket but gave the of
ficers no resistance, merely pleading
to he allowed to keep the revolver
that he might end his own life. De
spite the seriousness of his injuries,
he was able to walk to the ambulance.
Funeral services for Mrs. Stouffer
will be held Wednesday morning at 11
o'clock at the home of lier brother. !

LERCH CALLED
FORSENTENCE

pending Punishment Under
Advisement
After severely reprimanding Miz
pah Lerch, i-onv! ted of piling stones
on the car tracks nenr penbrook dur
ing the street railways strike last
July, President Judge Kunkel this
morning took the question of impos
ing or suspending sentence under
advisement.
Counsel for Lerch presented a peti
tion signed by many of the promi
nent residents of Penbrook asking
leniency, but Judge Kunkel pointed
to the statement made by Lerch that
he was "only lifting the stones to
test his strength."
Sentence Referred
The court then went over the law
carefully reading the maximum sen
tence of ten years' improsonment
and a fine of SIO,OOO and stated that
prisoners only were put on parole
when the court deemed it would re
sult in good.
Sentencing of Joseph Blumson,
convicted on a false pretence charge,
was deferred until next week. A
similar suit has been brought against
him in the June term of criminal
court. Oscar G. Wickcrsham, coun
sel for Blumson, asked for a continu
ance on the ground that the defend
ant has been appointed an interpre
ter for Middletown for the registra
tion. Blumson when questioned by
the court said he could act as an in
terpreter in twelve different lan
guages.
Wilson Potteiger, wanted on a
charge of not complying with the
court order for maintainence, was
ordered to pay the costs of the at
tachment.

CONSERVATION OF
CAR SPACE URGED
Letter From Washington to
Chamber of Commerce
Asks Aid of Shippers
The importance of all shippers do
ing everything possible to co-operate
with the Department of Commerce at
Washington was emphasized in a let
ter received this morning by the lo
cal Chamber of Commerce. Bureaus
iu charge of shipping all over the
country are urging manufacturers to
conserve car space in every possible
way. The need of sending only the
actual necessities of life and the mu
nitions and requirements of war is
also being enforced whenever pos
sible. The letter to the Chamber fol
lows;
Dcmniit! IK (Srcut
"The demand lor freight cars at
the present time is far beyond that
of any previous period in our history.
When our troops are actually in the
lield this demand will be greatly in
cieased. The Car Service Commis
sion of the American Hallway Associ
ation is co-ordinating the freight
traffic resources of the country in an
effort to meet this demand, but it will
be unable to do so without the help
ot all those interested.
"It appears that a very large per
centage of freight cars are sent out
loaded only to the minimum capacity
fixed in the tariffs of the carriers,
although the maximum safe capacity
of the car is in some cases twice this
minimum. The Bureau believes that
a great improvement will follow if
this situation is brought to the at
tention of shippers and others con
cerned, and it is pointed out to them
that unless cars are loaded to the
maximum and delays obviated there
will not be enough cars to go around,
with resulting hardships to every
one.
"You are urged, therefore, to inau
gurate a campaign in your locality
for greater efficiency in freight ship
ping, including prompt loading and
unloading. In such a campaign you
may encounter difficulties in certain
trades as a result of recognized
equivalents in other units of carload
lots. In such cases you should con
sider the advisability of modifying
for a limited period, or for all time,
these equivalents, any of wheh were
formulated years ago when the cars
in use were considerably smaller than
the majority of those in use to-day.
"Should you decide to co-operate
with the Bureau and start such a
campaign, the Bureau will be glad to
receive information from time to
time regarding the methods employed
and the results attained by you. Sug
gestions as tofurther steps on the
part of the Bureau will also be wel
comed."

Higher Postage and Ad
vertising Rates
By .Issociatcd rrcss
Washington, June 4. After sev-
J oral hours' discussion of how news
| papers,■ magazines and other publlca
-1 tions shall be taxed for war purposes,
1 the Senate Finance Committee tb-day
adopted a resolution against increas
' ing second-class postage rates and
I in favor of levying a direct flat two
j per cent, upon advertising receipts.
The decision was tentative but is ex
j ye.cted to be nnal. Representatives
of the publishers, at conferences with
members of the committee are op
posed to postage increases.
The revised bill probably will be
presented to the Senate Thursday or
Friday and be pressed for prompt
j consideration. It is expected that the
I bill will provide for authorization of
a billion-dollar bond issue for the
| first year of war in addition to the
! $1.5011,000,000 revenue provided in the
bill and bond issues previously au
thorized. Most of the new bonds
probably would be short term issues.
