8 CRAZED MAN KILLS SPOUSE, THEN SELF Double Tragedy Witnessed by Hundreds of Slain Woman's Fellow Workers JEALOUSY GIVEN AS CAUSE Inability to Effect Reconciliation and Thoughts of Another Man Lead to Crime Following an ineffectual attempt at reconciliation, E. H. Cowell. a former mining man, shot and killed his young and then fired a shot through his brain which resulted in death In the receiving hospital shortly before 7 o'clock last night. The double tragedy happened at Twelfth and Wall streets last evening and the murder and suicide were witnessed by hundreds of persons going to Mrs.

Cowell had been employed since separating from her husband. Mrs. Cowell, who was better known In Los Angeles as Rose Miller, was walking south on Wall street in company of two girl friends, Georgia Echabarne, 136 East Fifty-fourth street, and Viola Dietrich, 430 East Twelfth street, when Cowell approached from behind, and taking deliberate aim fired a single shot. It struck his wife in the back and penetrated the heart. She walked several steps, then collapsed, and when a number of her fellow workers rushed to her assistance she was dead.

In the confusion no one paid any attention to the man who fired the shot until another shot rang out and Cowell dropped in the street, twenty feet from the body of his wife. A hurry call was made for the police. At the receiving hospital every effort was made to restore Cowell to consciousness that he might make a statement, but he died shortly before 7 o'clock, without giving any intimation as to the reason he killed his wife and shot himself. Shortly after the police ambulance took Cowell to the receiving hospital the body of his young wife was taken to Pierce undertaking parlors. An hour later the body of her husband was placed on a slab In the lorgue by her side.

Behind the tragedy Is a romance known only to the friends of Mrs. Cowell. That she married In haste is admitted by the hundreds of girls who worked with her in the Boss overall factory. Yesterday afternoon Cowell appeared at the factory, Twelfth and San Julian streets, and attempted to persuade his wife to return to him. According to a number of witnesses, she replied: "I am done with you forever." Cowell is said to have remained about the factory and followed his as she left the place and shot her In the back -without any warning-.

At the rooming apartments of Mrs. Cowell, 531 San Julian street, were found a number of letters which showed that Cowell had tried to regain her confidence. In his pocket at the time of the shooting was found a note which showed that he had planned the murder and suicide. The note read: "To those who may read this: "This woman Is my wife and we married two years ago in San Bernardino. She loves some one else and I can't live without her.

I can't die knowing she loves some one else, so I am going to kill her and then myself. Don't think I am crazy, for I am not. If women were women they save lots of good men's Hve3. E. H.

Cowell." Friends of the dead woman fire at a loss to account for any person who has alienated, the affections nf her husband. From her acquaintances it wa-3 learned she has a father and sister living in San Diego. A letter signed "your loving sister, Pansy Jespup," was found in her room, dated from San Diego. It is probable the coroner will sign a verdict of murder and suicide without the formality of an inquest. SLAIN WOMAN'S SISTER THOUGHT MARRIAGE HAPPY SAN DIEGO, June God, it can't be true!" said pretty Pansy Jes- Bup late tonight when she obtained the first news of her sister's death, brought to her by a Herald correspondent.

"I have not heard from my sister for a long time," she continued, "and I did not know that she had any trouble her husband. She was married to Mr. Cowell a year ago on June 26, and as far as 1 know her married life has been all that could be desired." Miss Pansy Jessup is a sister of the dead woman is employed aa a domestic at the of A. B. Curtis, a local realty operator living on Copelarni avenue In City Heights.

Prior to her marirage to Cowell, his wife, then Jliss Jessup. was a resident of San Diego and was employed as a domestic In a number of homes here. Her only surviving relative, aside from Miss Pansy Jessup, is a younger sister who lives with friends in Escondido.

O'Melveny, counsel for the Home Telephone company, said there was no need playing a game where the cards were stacked against him. He had been arguing for a change in the recently adopted odrinance that would permit Ot an extra charge of 25 cents a month for desk or portable telephones. His remark brought fire to the eyes of the councilman. They all started to their feet but Councilman Andrews found his first. "I'll have you understand," he shouted at O'Melveny, "that neither nor any other members of this council have stacked any cards.

I have looked into this matter carefully and for one, won't stand for your company enriching itself any further by what I call an unjust charge." Councilman Betouskl, who, at the beginning of the proceedings, asked that O'Melveny's petition be filed, called for the question, and the measure denying the company any concessions In the way of changing the original ordinance, was passed by a vote of i t.i 8, Council President Lusk and Councilman Washburn and Gregory being the dl isenters. President Lusk said: rwe are working an injustice on the company. lam inclined to think that we are acting too hastily in not allowing these slight modifications that ompany has asked, and I cannot vote affirmatively, want to be fair and ari.i for one would be willing to allow the concessions asked by Mr. Thi ho voti 1 to file the petition were Williams, Betkouskl, O'Brien and Andrews.

She refused to have it in the house, he said. "Was that all the trouble there was between you before she left?" asked Judge Hutton. "Well, no," admitted the plaintiff.

"She wanted to have everything this way and that way." "Why didn't you let her have things this way and that way?" asked Judge Hutton. "She wanted to spend too much money and didn't show eood Judgment," he answered. "She always wanted to have her say." "Well," drawled the judge, "what difference did that make? Why didn't you let her have her say? All women want that, anyway." "But if I had let her have her own way," replied the plaintiff, "we would have hud nothing. I was trying to provide a home and she wanted so many things that we would have gone in debt and lost the whole business." Kelley said he had not seen his wife for nearly two years ami the court took the case under advisement. Nile L.
