LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2.—Henry Mar- coux, a harnessmaker, about 70 years of age, late to-night shot and killed his wife, Mrs. Ruby Marcoux, and fatally wounded Mrs. Frances Fox, her friend. The shooting took place at 214 East Third street, the home of the Fox fam- ily. Marcoux was arrested at mid- night. The shooting was the result of do- mestic disagreements in the Marcoux family, To-night Marcoux secreted himself in the rear of the Fox house and when Mrs. Marcoux and Mrs. Fox came out he opened fire from a ze- volver. The first shot missed Mrs. Marcoux and she fell, begging him not to shoot. The second shot passed through her heart, killing her instant- ly. Marcoux then turned the weapon upon Mrs. Fox and shot her through the stomach. She is believed to be fatally wounded. The murderer fled, but was arrested two hours afterward and locked up in the City Jail. e e CHILD BURNED TO DEATH DURING MOTHER'S ABSENCE | Clothing of Boy Catches Fire From Heater in Room Where He Was Playing.
