nursing-bome, in the Rue du Docteur Blanche, to see his wife, who recently gave birth to a child.
When Sonora de la Sota entered the waiting-room her husband fired at her four times, wounding her in the head, breast, and forearm. He then ran out and shot himself twice.
Picked up by passers-by, he was im- mediately rushed to the nearest hos

The doctors who are attending Senora de la Sota have succeeded in extracting the three bullets, but baz condition remains extremely serious,
Senora de la Sota, who is 29 and strikingly handsome, is the piece of Dr Perez, the Argentine Ambassador to Italy. She married Senor de la Sota in New York in 1929, but loft him a year ago to live with her móther, Senora Guerra, and her uncle, Senor Perez, who has a house at Neuilly, a Parla suburb.
