Pittsburg, Pa., June 1. A profound shock was given the citizens of Snow-

den Wednesday when the body of

Frank Edson, a prominent merchant, was found in the yard ot the residence of John Shelden, a coal operator. Inside the house Mrs. Shelden was found shrieking hysterically while the carpet of a bedroom on the second floor was saturated with blood. A trail of blood led down the stairs and through the front hall, across the porch and down the stens onto the lawn where the body of Edson lay. Selden has disappeared. Mrs. Seidell in her story to detectives said

that this afternoon, after returning

from his mines, her husband went to the Snowden Country club to play golf, as was his usual custom. During the storm the awning over a window of her bedroom became loose and she was afraid It would break a win-

jdow pane. She was on the lawn when Edson came along and she asked him to fasten the awning. She accompan

ied him to the room and he lashed the broken frame in a way that prevented it from swinging. Just as it was finished her husband came running up the steps furiously angry at finding her in the room with Edson, of whom he was very jealous, knowing him to have been a rival suitor. She said that her husband, who was carrying a golf bag, swung bag and sticks over his head and struck Edson, a much smaller man. over the head with it. knocking him down. Edson got up and ran down the stairs with Selden pursuing him, raining blows on his head with the golf sticks. Mrs. Selden said she ran after her husband and tried to hold him back and explain, but he threw her off. She said Edson fell in the yard where his body was found. Her husband disappeared around rear of the residence an she has not seen him since. . She was afraid to go to Edson's body and ran -up stairs and stayed there until the neighbors came in. She refused to tell them what had occurred, but finally told the detectives who found the broken awning lashed just as Mrs. Edson described It.
