MURDOGK TALKS OF TRAGEDY Says If He'd Been "More Neighborly" Edeys Would Be Alive Today. New York, Jan. 7. Gardner Mur- dock, the liveryman whose alleged alienation suit against nenry C. Edey of Bellport N. Y Is said to have caus ed Edey to murder his wife and end his own life, corroborated tho story Mrs. Murdock told of a plot to ex change wives. Murdock was seen nt his hotel on Staton Island. Ho said that Edey, two days before tho mur der and suicide, visited the hotel and made a vain effort to settle the suit "As for this exchange of wives which my wife has told about," said Murdock, "slio ought to have kept her mouth shut. Thry won't get me to talk at the Inquest However, I think that if I'd been more neighborly with Edey after I got back from my trip to Texas and given Edey a chance to be on friendly terms with my wife and myself, ho never would have done tho shooting. I sailed to Galveston In August; then I went to Panama and returned to Hous ton. There I met Mrs. Edey and her aunt But meanwhile Edey abandoned the plan to exchange wives. Mrs. Edey went to Porto Itlco with Mr. Edey, and I went on to the island at the same time they were there, but I came back alone, and he came back with her. "I refused to be neighborly with Edey after he came back, and I wasn't surprised to hear bo'd shot himself. Mrs. Edey would have been living to day If It hadn't been for her family, who made her go and live with him. She had started a divorce suit against him, and that may have Influenced him. He secretly threatened me with violence and carried a pistol for me all the time. After I started the suit for alienation of my wife's affections Edey tried to settle with my lawyers, but he wouldn't pay the price. Then be came to see me. As for divorcing my wife, I don't know. A man can never tell what he will do. Wo may live together again." NO LETUP IN GARMENT STRIKE Employers Refuse Demands For In crease and Recognition of Union. New York, Jan. 7.
