J. K. HIT'S CRIME
Attempts To Murder His
Wife at 'Frisco.
Chawul ilor Through the Street* arul
Shot Her In the Head—•Prevented
from Shooting n Second Time by
Their Protege—The Actor Was
Intoxicated.
New York, Juue 10.—Particulars of
the attempt of J. K. Emmett, the actor,
to murder his wife, who iaknowu on the
stage as Emily Lytou, have been received
here. The shooting occurred a short
distance from their temporary residence
in San Francisco, Saturday night. Em
rnett had been indulging in strong drink
and, after his wife returned home, a
quarrel ensued. When the shooting oc
curred there were few people upon the
street, and the best account of eye wit
nesses was given by Frank Berges,
twelve years of age. The couple had
evidently been practising upon their
mandolin and guitar, for, only a few
minutes before the first signs of troublo
appeared, the music of these instru
ments was heard In Kmmctt's apart
ments. Suddenly tho front door was
thrown upon by Mrs. Emmett, who
pushed their little eight-year-old pro
tege, Baby Synott, out on the front
porch aheud of her.
"I'll shoot you", I'll kill you," yelled
F.mmctt, who was in the front room.
"No you wont," answered his wife, as
she closed the door and hastily inserting
the key snapped the lock. Pushing Ba
by Synot aside, Mrs. Einmett ran along
the sidewalk. Emmott rushed to tho
frout window, which ho threw open,
and started to spring to the ground, a
distance of six foot. In doing so his
foot caught on tho window sill and ho
fell in tho garden, striking his face
against the stone coping. His uose bled
freely. In the actors hand was a revol
ver. Springing up he cleared the low
fence at a bound, and started in pursuit
of his wifo. Half way down the block
tho woman stopped and looked back.
She saw her husband and the revolver,
and with a scream resumed her flight.
She cried loudly for help as she ran.
At this point Baby Synott, hearing
Mrs. Emmett's cries for help, Joined in
the race. Near the corner Emmott caught
up with his wifo and fired. With a
scream Mrs. Emrnett fell to the side
walk. Ho udvanced towards his victim
as though to shoot again, but as be
levelled his pistol the child seized the
hand that held the weapon. The actor
paused and looked at the little one in
astonishment, for ho had not seen her
before. lie pushed her from him, stepped
back and placed the muzzle of his
weapon against his temple. Baby Synott
again sprang upon the would-be mur
derer, seeming to climb up his limbs. In
an instant tho little hand was gripping
the barrel of tho pistol, which she
pushed away from his temple. She
clung to his arm so that he could not
use the weapon again. Emrnett stood
for a moment as if bewildered, and then
with his left hand ho threw the weapon
into a garden. Then tho eight-year-old
heroine fell to the sidewalk in a faint.
Bystanders quickly gathered, and ono
picked up the child. No one would
touch the man, who walked up the
street and sat upon his doorstep until an
officer arrived. Mrs. Kmmett was as
sisted to a doorstep nearby, where she
sat moaning until officers took her to
tho receiving hospital. Tho police stated
that Emmett was undoubtedly uuder the
influence of liquor at tho time of his ar
rest. Mrs. Emmett was driven to the
receiving hospital. When placed on the
operating table she was in a very hys
terical condition, and declared that there
was no bullet in her head, although a
supposed bullet wound was in her left
temple. Blie protested against tho doc
tors probing, and insisted upon leaving
the hospital. Finally she consented to
allow them to probe if they would desist
when sho cried "stop." Dr. lieddlng
probed for a bullet, but was unable to
find one. It had glanced upwards along
the bone, and had In all probability
lodged under the skin in her scalp. In
answer to questions she said her husband
had struck her inside the house with the
butt end of a revolver, and sho ran into
the street. He followed her and pointed
the pistol at her, when she struck his
hand upward and the bullet went into
tho air. rihe was positive it had not
struck her, saying; "He is too great a
coward to do that." When told she
would have to remain in the hospital,
she refused to do so, and her brother in
law loft to get a hack to take her to his
rooms. Captain Lees saw her at the hos
pital later and agreed to allow her to
leave. According to a friend's story,
Emmett and his wifo have not lived hap
pily together since they arrived in this
city, and their quarrels drove Emmett
almost crazy at times.

Lester, in some unknown way, pulled
the rope. As tho elevator started up

calling Owens. Her head struck the

NOT A CANDIDATE.
So Ex-Secretary Whitney Declares—
His Vie we ou tho Silver Question.
Boston, Juno o—Ex-Secretary of the
Navy William C. Whitney was inter
viewed at the home of his mother in
Brookline last night. He said: "I am
not and will not be a presidential candi
date. If the silver men should carry
the next democratic convention it would
split the purty right in two. The demo
crats must stand for sound money.
There are a good many sound money
men in the west and south, uud the
Memphis convention, I think, bus helped
the cause uloug. Carlisle's speech at
that convention was an excellent ono
and deserves to be widely read. It lias
undoubtedly hud an influence in tlie
south. I think the peoplo will eventual
ly treat this question the same as they
did the greenback question, They want
sound money now just tho same as they
did then."

PRINCETON'S TRAGEDY
Ohl and Cochrane in a Crit
cal Condition.
Collogo Student s Still Greatly Ex
cited Over the Affair—John Collins,
the Negro Who Is Charged with the
Crime Locked Up In the Trenton
dull—Threatened with Lynching.
Princeton, June 10.—The shooting of
students Frederick Pierson Ohl and Gar
rett Cochrane, of the freshman class at
Princeton college, Saturday night, by a
negro named Johu Collins, still causes
intense excitement among tno other stu
dents in this town. The shooting took
place in an alley In front of the side en
trance to the Anderson hotel. Collins is
a laborer, 26 years old. He had had
words with the students and in a fit of
rage drew a 22-calibre revolver and fired
first at Ohl, then at Cochrane and again
at Ohl.
The bullet fired at Cochrane struck
him In the mouth and traveled to the
baso of his right ear. Both of Ohl's
wounds were in the stomach. The stu
dents dropped to the sidewalk and were
quickly removed to the college hospital.
Collins was placed under arrest by mar
shal H. B. Tyrell. He took his prisoner
to the town lock-up, but had scarcely
got him incarcerated before word of the
shooting reached every ear in Princeton
and the students gathered on Nassau
streot by the hundreds.
A report gaining circulation that both
Ohl and Cochrane were dying, the stu
dents grew very excited and demands
that the negro be lynched went up on
every side. "Hung him, hang him," was
an exclamation repeated frequently. At
the lock-up It was heard that some of
the students had procured u rope and
were marching there In a body.
Mnrsliall Tyrell, fearing for the pris
oner's safety, handcuffed him and re
moved him to a piece of woods about a
quarter of a mile from the college and
kept him there until after midnight. By
that time the excitement had subsided
and a conveyance was obtained and Ty
rell aud two other officers took Collins
to the county jail at Trenton. Stephen
Downs, also colored, was lodged in the
county jail at the same time. He was
in the company of Collins immediately
before the shooting took place. Ohl and
Cochrane with some other students it
seems were walking down Wltherspoou
street, a little before 10 o'clock.
Collins and Downs approached them
from an opposite direotion, and Collins,
it is said, used insulting language, di
recting it toward the students. The lat
ter rejoined sharply aud there was con
siderable profanity. A few minutes later
Cochrane and Ohl met Collins in the
alley alluded to. Downs was a few feet
uway. Collins stood iii the door of the
hotel bar and reviled the students aud
dared them to enter. They undertook to
do so, when the negro whipped out his
weapon and began firing. This is the
story of the affair as given by persons
who were on the scene soon after the
shooting. The negroes would not see
reportors in the oounty jail to day.
To-day the wounded students are lying
in a critical condition. Dr. Bull, of New
York, extracted the bullets from Ohl's
body, but failed to dislodge the one un
derneath Cochrano's ear. Ohl belongs in
Newcastle, Pa. He is a brother of Full
back Ohl of the Cornell college football
team. He played half-back in the Prince
ton freshmen football team and was last
fall heavyweight cane spreer, winning
the only cane won by the freshmen.
Cochrane is from Williamsport. Pa. He
was captain of the Lawrenceville foot
ball team In 'OB, and played full-back
with the Princeton team last fall.
