Toward eight O'Clock another old who
was IN The room noticed u peculiar, rasp!ng
NOISE which Stevens made. and supposing that
something was wrong with him he called the
superintendent, Sir. ainscar The latter had scarcely
entered the room when Stevens died. Tho house
physician, Dr. Campbell, was called, and upon looking
at tho corpse declared that tho had died OF
sumption. Later on in the evening, however when
the body was removed, an ounce boIIo OF !audanuni
was found IN the bed. with about u quarter Of an
ounce of the uid remaining IL would appear ut rst
sisht that INC laudanum was the cause OF his death,
out u ailerward became known that he had been
TIC habit vi using audanum Tor his disease for
Der OF years, and tho amount taken IRON the bottle
would scarcely be enough to cause the death OF o
man accustomed TO tho use Of opium. Nevertheless
there arc reasons Tor assuming that he did
tako the laudanum with suicidal Intention
Mr. Stevens was formerly in easy circumstances; no
was once proprietor oil large stone yard HIS domestic
lie, however was unfortunate, and he lived separated

Co" stonecutcrs, In FOrtyeghth street, the East
RIVER as his illness Increased, however. he became
gradually incapacatcd from doing further work at tho
stone yard and he at last determined TO do something
else AS hc did not succeed. however IN getting any
thing, he became respondent and spoke OF drowning
himself TO get rid OF his troubles Last week he also
told German shoemaker in Forty eighth street that
he was gong back to tho Home and invited HIM TO
