C^iiwd, 31 years old, salesman for a local fish company, shot and fatally wounded Mrs. Katherine Conard, 19 j ears old, his bride of rane days, at their apartment here today.

Conard toldt he police he shot bis wife because she had tlireatened to leave him. He blamed the girl’s sis ter, Mrs. William E. Aikens, of this city, for the trouble.
