August 3, 1891CHARLES E.GOODWIN DYING
SHOT IN HIS ROOM LAST NIGHT BY BERTRAM C. WEBSTER.JEALOUSY THE CAUSE OF THE DEED - MISS "EVELINE GRANVILLE" THE WOMAN IN THE CASE - SHE CALLED HERSELF WEBSTER'S WIFE.
The staid apartment house, the Percival, 230 West Forty-second Street, was last night the scene of an attempt at murder that Is likely to prove successful, Charles E. Goodwin, a commercial agent, who is connected with the wine firm of Goodwin & Ricord, having been shot In the abdomen by Bertram C. Webster, the horse owner and bookmaker.
The cause of the shooting was a pretty, baby faced, curly-haired little blonde, once an actress known as Eveline Granville, who was for some time been known as Webster's wife. Goodwin hired apartment 37 on the third floor a year ago, and was greatly respected. The Webster's who hired apartments 16 and 17 on the same floor two months ago, were less well regarded.
A month ago Mr. Goodwin drank more wine than was good for at a dinner, and a friend brought him home. Although he had never until that time he was shot spoken to Webster, he had a nodding acquaintance with Eveline, who, much to the annoyance of other tenants was in the habit of lounging in the corridor outside of her apartments in becoming dishabille toilets. She was there when Goodwin got off the elevator car with his friend, and seeing her, Goodwin advanced toward her saying:
"Wait a moment, I want to love this charming little woman," and he attempted to put his arm around her neck.
Eveline shreiked "0 mamma !" and ran down stairs to ask Actor George Wade of the "Wang" company to protect her from Mr. Goodwln.
Mr. Wade says that Eveline was greatly excited, and would not for some time be pacified, but when she went to her room with him, she pulled open a drawer and exhibiting a pistol, said that someday someone might suffer for his audacity. The next day Mr. Goodwin apologized and the affair was regarded as settled. .
Webster, who has done little in sporting matters since May, drank to excess yesterday, and at 7:30 o'clock last night the elevator man noticed that he was at the door of his apartment in his shirt sleeves. Webster, noticing that he was green, said jocularly," Well, are you going to Harlem & you are awfully long making your trip."
The man went up and on his return Webster said he was looking for his pet cat and asked him to make a thorough search for it down stairs. A minute later there was a shout of wild altercation, a shot and a crash from Mr. Goodwin's room. The next minute Webster was encountered walking down stairs, instead of taking the elevator.
He said, "Send for a, doctor, you'd better."
"Is Mrs. Webster sick" he was asked,
"No; it's for that fellow Goodwin, I guess he's hurt."
In another moment he went out of the front door and boarded a car.Mr. Goodwin was found partly under a table in his room with a broken cuspidor under him. Dr. Sebastian J. Wimmer was summoned, while Roundsman Daly sent for an ambulance. The wound was pronounced fatal. Goodwin said that he was writing a letter when a knock came at his door. He said "Come in," and Webster entered, holding a revolver in front of him and vomiting abuse. When within two feet of him, Goodwin having risen, Webster fired point blank at his abdomen and fled.
At the hospital Goodwin's chances of surviving were not even entertained, but he may linger until tomorrow. If he survives It will be a miracle.
Capt. Cross put Eveline under gaurd and sent out a posse to hunt tor Webster. Eveline said that Webster went to Goodwin for an apology and shot him when he flung a cuspidor at him. She refused to be interviewed, and said that she had on a former occasion made a morning newspaper "take down its colors." The woman has a history.
At the Roosevelt Hospital Dr. Schultze, the house surgeon. examined the wound and found that the bullet had pierced the liver, stomach, and small intestine and had lodged in the left kidney. Laparotomy was performed, but the case is considered hopeless. After the operation Dr. Schultze asked Goodwin If he knew that he was going to die, and Goodwin said that he did.
"Have you any statement to make?" asked the doctor. .
"Yes," answered Goodwin. "I was sitting in my room, when a man named Webster entered, knocked me off my chair, and shot me."
