KILLSWIFEANDSELF DOMESTIC TROUBLE SAID TO BE , THE CAUSE. RETURNING FROM CHURCH The Woman’s Husband, William Alford, Fired Fatal Shot—The Couple Were Not Living Together at the Time—Other News of the State. , Indianapolis, June 10.—William Alford, 40, of Anderson, Ind., yesterday shot and killed his wife, Josephine Alford, 46, and then committed suicide just, as Mrs. Alford was entering the front door of a fashionable home on North New Jersey street, where she was employed. Domestic trouble caused the tragedy. The shooting was witnessed by many residents of the neighborhood, who were sitting on their front porches. The spectators seemed horrified by the sight and not one moved until the clang of the police patrol brought them to a realization of the crime. The couple had been separated for some time and Mrs. Alford had tried to keep the place of her employment secret from her husband, as he, she said, had threatened, to kill her because she would not live with him. Alford today waited for his wife who had been to church and it is believed tried to persuade her to return to him. Witnesses said she walked from him and almost ran, in her eagerness to gain the shelter of the house where she was employed. She was shbt as she opened the front door. Dredge For Sale.
