The shooting is said to have occurred 'around 7:30 o'clock Satur-- day morniang. -- -- ------ : c-- : * Body In Closet t Simms' wife told Marshal Riggs | that she had-- been _ awakened' at -- about seven--thirty o'clock by' Cl -- unmank af a© slak in ow wemnlmy fiWWUISWWWI svvlu.' Simms got out of bed and went ! over to a clothes closet in the bed-- | room. As she opened the closet door, she found the body of her husband lying on the floor with the rifle close beside it. : * She immediately notified Marshal Riggs who hurried over to the house and started an investigation. Exam-- ination of the body . showed that Simms had fired the bullet through his temple and that death was in stantaneous. & According to the story told by Mis. Simms. her husband had arisen early in the morning and eaten breakfast with his eldest son, Willard, who commutes to and from Chicago every day where he is employed. After breakfast Simms went back upStairs after telling his son that he was go-- ing back to bed. -- Arriving back in the vedroom, however, Simms walked into the clothes closet, shut the door and fired the shot which awakened his wife. Simms is survived by his widow and seven children. According to the Fox Lake village marshal, it is known that Simms had made several previ-- ous threats to commit suicide: It was also said that Simms had not been ig the best of health during the past few weeks but that the reason for firing the fatal shot was due to financial troubles rather than for reasons due to poor health.

McCarthy of Elgin, who was spokesman for a group of representative farmers from Mc-- Henry, Kane and other counties in this district, who called on Health Commissioner A. H. Kegel in Chi-- cago Saturday to present their claim. The rigid enforcement of the Chi-- cago ordinance requiring that all milk furnished to the Chicago dis-- trict be from tuberculin tested cattle is forcing financial ruin on many dairymen in the Chicago district. the health commissioner was told. Outside:. competition -- ~producing milk at a distance of from 50 to 500 miles from 'Chicago dees not receive the same rigid inspection as the milk produced in the close in territory. As a reSult the local territory is ser-- iously handicapped. & The wholesale price for two years past --has. been around the $2.50 mark for milk from tested cows, which is the same price as was paid for milk before the tubercuilin test was man-- datory. : f In the --meantime there has been an almost compl®e turnover in cattle in this district. Thousands of dollars have been sacrificed to satisfy the whim of former Health Commis-- sioner Burdesen, who was removed from office a few -- weeks ago by Mayor Thomgson. > hy The farmers represented by Rep-- resentative McCarthy are asking for $3.00 per hundred pounds, an in-- crease of fifty cents over the present They are also asking what is even more important in the long run, that the entire territory supplying milk to the Chicago territory--be treated the same. If this district is to be required to live up strictly to the Chicago milk ordinance, then nc milk should be admitted which comes from territory not under rigid in-- spection. At present thousands ot gallons of milk go--to Chicago frow territory beyond the natural Chica-- go district, and which it is claimed is not under proper inspection. illis Simms, Owner Of Fox Lake Place, Shoots Self At Home; Poor --Business Is Blamed.
