XITTS WOMAN WOUNDED IN FIGHT AT CONEY ISLAND. A Singer in One of the Music Halls [here--Went to New York to Study Opera--Louis Pogel, Jealous of Her, Killed Her Two Companions, New York, May 15~The crowd in Bouth Brooklyn hotel at Oceanic Walk and the Bowery, Coney lsland, heard thiee pistol shots, followed by the screams of a woman | about 5:30 o'clock, last night, and an instant lat- er two men staggered into the bar- room bleeding from bullet wounds in the head and toppled over dead. Outside a crowd gathered and through it dashed a woman and man holding a revolver in his hand. They disappeared around the corner into the Bowery. The woman fell uncon- scious in the doorway of a little Ita- lian restaurant. She was shot through the left shoulder. In the hospital the woman regained consciousness and said she was Car- roll Terry, a singer in the Imperial musie hall' at the Bowery and Thomp son's Walk. She said she did not know the men who had been killed, but had accepted their invitation to have a drink, and later to have din- ner in the restaurant. "It was Louis Pogel who shot me,' the police say the woman said, "and it was he who killed my companions. He was jealous of me. I met him three years ago, after 1 had come to New York from my howe in St. Catharinés, Cnt., to stody for the opera, and had finally drifted to the lowery for lack of funds. We lived together since then until recently, when I went away to Western New York. 1 returned a week ago and got a place in a music hall. Pogel found me there, but 1 would not have any- thing to do with him, and he got angry. ------ No Knowledge Of Her. St. Catharines, Ont., May 15.--~The Catharines.
