Halt Ade residents of that place are helping the police search for Mrs. Cegari {Del Monte, who shot Mrs, Lizzie Marvin, of No, 17 Eighty-first street yester- \aay, while Mrs. Marvin had a year-old baty in her arms. It is supposed {that Mrs. Del Monte is. being hidden by one of the Italian market gardeners “whose huts dot the Dyker Meadows. ‘\ The shooting grew out of jealousy. Mrs. Del Monte had been earrying fb vevolver and making threats against Mrs. Marvin ever since last summer. i Mrs. Marvin ts the wife of a stenographer employed by an insurance {pompany in this borough. Mrs. De! Monte is the wife of a wealthy boss ‘gtevedore in Brooklyn, who owns a great deal of unimproved property in ‘and about Bath Beach. The Del Montes went to board with the Marvins at Pighty- first street and New Utrecht avenue last summer. GREW JEALOUS OF MRS. MARVIN. {Del Monte paid more attention to Mrs. Marvin than Mrs, Del Monte fenousnt was Necessary. She is a beautiful Italian woman, about thirty of age, and of ungovernable temper. Without giving voice to her \fealous suspicions she went to Broaklyn and bought a revolver. ii A couple of days later she drew the revolver on Mrs. Marvin while ‘Whey were alone in the house with the Marvin children, an infant and a jiete girl eight years old.

This was last Saturday afternoon. Marvin was infornied of the visit, ‘anc sent word to Del Monte that he would have to*stay away from the ‘house, as he feared that Mrs. Del Monte was bent on murder. Del Monte went down to see the Marvins yesterday at noon to talk it ‘on his future visits to Bath Beach and went back to Brooklyn. It appears it Mrs: dei Monte was watching the house and knew of the visit. » She knew that it was Mrs. Marvin's custom to take her two children levery Sunday afternoon for a visit to the home of Mrs, Margaret Stone, at {Bighty-sixth street and Bay avenue. Mrs. Stone is an invalid and wag the| lonly member of the family at home. Mrs. Del Monte made her way to Mrs. \Stone’s residénce, walked upstairs and hid herself in a closet while Mrs. Stone was at dinner downstairs. dark. She carried the little one on her left arm and Jed the eight-year-old to find her reading by the fire. BOTH SHOTS TAKE EFFECT, Before salutations could be exchanged Mrs. Del Monte jumped out® of the closet, ran up to Mrs. Marvin, placed te pistol against her right thigh and fired. The frightened woman dropped the baby on the fioor, turned _and ran‘to the head of the stairs, Mrs. Del Monte followed, and shot again, the second bullet striking within an inch of the first.
