SONKILLS FATHER, THEN SURRENDERS Shoots Him as He Sits at Desk, Following Quarrel Kansas City, Mo.,, Sept. 7.—J. W. Garvey, an insurance man, was shot and killed shortly before 11 o'clock yesterday by his son and partner, Roy B. Garvey, father's office. ~After firing the shots the vounger Garvey walked calmly from the office building to headquarters He entered the office of Louls Op- police commissioner of police?” he Oppenstein business in the penstein “Is this the chief asked Mr. Oppenstein took him into the office of Captain Frank H. Anderson, cting chief, where Garvey repeated his question “I want to see you on business,” Garvey said, quietly “I shot my father." The irascible tempers of father and son were blamed by friends and business associates who went to the office after the slaying, but various reasons' were given for the quarrel which preceded the shooting. It is known that a bitter renewal of a quarrel which has been smoldering for weeks occurred yes- terday. The immediate cause of its renewal was the discharge this morn- ing of Mrs. Helen Groh, a stenogra- pher, by the elder Mr. Garvey. Roy Garvey refused to make a written statement “Father had been abusing my mother for some time,' he told Cap- tain Anderson. “I told him the last time that if it occurred again I would take up the matter.” He refused to go into details of the quarrel with his father “Ths morning when I went to the office,”” he continued, “I found my father had discharged our stenog- rapher, Mrs. Groh. I asked him why he had done it! * ‘It's nothing to you,” father replied ““Maybe you discharged her be- cause you couldn't do with her as you have done with other stenog- both raphers,” Garvey declares he told his | father. “ ‘I'll make you eat those words,’ my father replied. ‘I've got some- thing to make you.' " Garvey said his father then opened the drawer of the desk at which he was sitting with his left hand and moved his right hand toward the open drawer. “8o I pulled out my pistol and shot him,” Garvey said. ‘“Then T threw my revolver on the table and came to police headquarters.” Nine empty shells from a .32 cali-| ber automatic were found in the Gar- vey office by detectives. TFour bhul-| lets also were found. REFUSED MAN—IS SHOT. Girl Did Not Want to Marry Him—! He Shoots Her and Kills Self.

LITTLE HOPE NOW OF SAVING MINERS New Cave-in Makes Work of Rescu- ing Party Even More Difficult Jackson, Cal, Sept. 7.—(By the As- sociated Press)—Hopes that the buried miners in the Argonaut shaft would be reached by rescue crews, which have been tunneling feverishly since a week ago Sunday night in time to bring out alive the entrapped miners faded after it became known last night that rescuers burrowing | from the 3600 foot level of the Ken- nedy workings have yet to pierce 333 feet of caved in debris and timbers and 30 1-2 feet of solid rock. Unless better conditions are en- countered it was believed by some mining experts here that it will be closer to 13 than 7 days before the task is accomplished. Fred L. Lowell, safety engineer for the state industrial accident commis- sionvsaid that only ten feet were clear- ed yesterday on the 3900 foot level of the Kennedy mine which would lead to the 4,650 foot level of the Argo- naut. Rescue shifts working ‘on the two levels continued their work with- out letup and indications are that the workers on the 3600 foot level would be the first to reach the imprisoned men. Edmund Norris Hobart, safety en- gineer connected with the Mexican mining department of the American Smelting and Refining company, ar- rived here today to render whatever assistance is possible. Mr. Hobart has had charge of rescue work in several similar Mexican mine disasters. A GLASS OF MILK AT MID-DAY A Ah, but it's refresh- ing.
