Cunningham, a prominent real estate dealer of this city, shot and killed Mrs. Kerr last night and then com- mitted suicide. The bodies of Cunnmgham and Mrs. Kerr were found in an auto- |mobile at the roadside of a lonely |portion of the city.

Cunning- ham, widow of the dead man, ad- mitted that her husband had been in love with Mrs. Kerr and she declared that two months ago he had chosen the dead wo- man in preference to her. Mrs. Cunningham said she had told her husband he must choose between them and that his choice had been Mrs. Kerr. It developed today that Mrs. Kerr and Cunningham went on a long ride in the former’s auto- mobile yesterday afternoon, dur- ing which, the police believe, Cunningham attempted to per- suade his business partner to elope with him, Failing, he kill- ed her and ended his own life. Mrs, Kerr was one of the best known business women in this city and both she and Cunning- ham were wealthy.
