COOLIDGE WATCHED HIS WIFE AND THE MAN BEHIND THE TREE BOX. ‘There was some excitement in the neighbor- hood of 22th street and New York avenue about nine o'clock last night by a scuffle between a colored man and his wife, a sharp passage of words between them, and the discharge of a revolver by the husband at another colored man = was partially concealed behind a tree box near by, and who, after the discharge of the far ‘was seen. und a corner at a lively miaonal position, upon th tne scene: who | took te the shoot!st into cus- in the central siation, when Bopave he name et Jas.

He explained 1 that of late he had noticed something going wrong between his wife and this colored feliow, named Johr Evans, a barber in the fore hger a of Mr. Carter A. Stewart. Evans formerly rénted rooms in his (Coolidge’s) house, corner of 12th stieet eet and New York ave. He determined to get down to the bottom of it, and last night noticed that his wife was very nervous, as if she wanted him to go out t> spend the evening. In order to humor her, and at the same time ascertain what was going on, he made pretence that he was going, to the cee In 1 gong out he noticed that Se ‘as open, company Kept on cuaeen tie sire and around che 60 cornea move, at the same time that his wife was hing him from a window. Aftera little, he roursoet his steps and went home. His wife showed more symptems of nervousness. Presently the bell rang, and a boy delivered a note to biswite. He listened to thee conversation between them, and heard his wife say: “Tell him I can’t ceme out to-night on account of the rain.” He up and demanded to see the note, but she refused to let nim see it. He left the house again and went down the street, passing the man, aul did not feel exactly like doing anything te him, as he was not sure he as Tight; so he walked around the square, and on coming around saw the boy in front of his house, and asked him what he wanted. His reply was that he was waiting for an answer to that note from the colored man _ behind the treebox. This information settled it, and he went straight to the door, led kis wife out by the shoulders towards the man, determined to confront them, have an explanation anu eae settiement. It was at this interest - ing cinta and when near by the intruder upon nis happiness that the revolver, he says, acci- dental went off, without bis pulling the trig- ger at all, Tieut. Kelly heard the story through, ail of which he believed to be true, with 2 pos- sible exception—namely, the statement about the pistols accidentally discharging itself. So he decided that #50 would release Coolidge as a col- Jateral for SERA before Judge Snell on the chi of carrying concealed weapons.
