SUICIDE ON sHlPBoARD.
Glasgow Clergyman Cuts His Throat
and Jumps Overheard.


QUEBEC, August 13.-The Chronicle
publishes further details of the tragic death
of Rev. Wallace D. Sweet, Scotch clergy
man, on the steamer Manitoban. He was a
passenger on the steamship, which sailed
from Glasgow on August 8, but showed no
disposition of gloomy character during the
voyage. His terrible mania for self-destruc
ton was only evidenced when the vessel
was passing through the Straits
of Belle Isle, when the unfortu-
nate man was observed to rush on
deck with his throat cut, and before
anything could be done to prevent him,
threw himself overheard. The alarm was at
once given, and the ship was put about
with all possible dispatch. The Manitoban
was -unning, however, at the rate of IA
knots an hour, and it was, therefore, nearly
half an hour before the body of Mr.. Sweet
could be recovered. Strange to say, it
floated on the water, and when brought on
board there was still life in the body
The unfortunate man seemed to have suf-
fered little or nothing by his half-hour's
float upon the surface of the sea, but the
cash in the throat was fearful one, and
had to be stitched by the doctor on board in
four or five different places. So determined
a case of suicide was it that it was found
necessary to tie down the sufferers hands
with bandages. 1t was impossible to elicit
single word from him with reference to
his fearful action.
When the Manitoban arrived in port, it
was suggested that the unfortunate man be
at once sent to the Marine Hospital. DR..
Rowan, port physician, seeing the fearfully
weak co ldition of the patient, very wisely
recommended that Re be left undisturoed
on hoard of the vessel, in charge of the
doctor of the ship.
Mr. RoWaD tUas convinced that Nv Suyao4
would never live to be removed In vehicle
to the N uine Hospital, and so far he was
quite correct, as the unhappy man expired
some six hours later.
Rev. Mr.. Sweet was the rector of Barrow.

InoreAaing-Many Preachers Arriving.
Matters at the Brandywine Summit camp
are still moving slowly. Few visitors were
at the ground yesterday and the tenters were
busily engaged in putting the finishing
touches on their temporary dwellings. The
usual early morning service was held at the
stand.
At 10 O'Clock Rev. N. w. Clarke of Beth
lehem, Pa, preached from Romans 1:16.
Prayer service was held In Sloan tent at Q
o'clock, led by old Father Hance. At 3
o'clock the Rev. r. Smith of Crozierville,
delivered an earnest sermon from 91st
Psalm, first veree, at the close of which the
preacher in charge, the Rev. Maris Graves,
delivered a practical exhortation and led a
short prayer service. Last evening the Rev.
W. Wilson preached a very good sermon.
The St. Paul's circle is being well directed
by Messrs. j. G. Pickels, George Mccall
and Joseph France. The tenters in this
circle are at present the Revs. G. W. Todd
and R. Il. Adams. George Mccall, Samuel
Harris, J. c. Morrow, Mrs. Brown, Mrr.
Mary Todd, J. Zebley, Mrs. Hsnnah Ford,
Vincent Finn, j. s. Hoffecker, j. Hugh
Pyle, Misses Clara X. Murgatroyd and Susie

Thus far those composing Union circle
are Mrs. Jane Walls and Mrs. s. Pierson, l.
q. Thomas, Mrs. E. Forrest, o. N. McCor-
mick and James Oliver. The latter gentle.
man has charge of the Union boarding
table.
The managers and others interested will
hold a meeting to-day to consider the re-
leasing of the camp ground. The probabil-
tiles are that no trouble will be realized In
making the necessary arrangements for
another series of camp meetings In the
future.
Among the arrivals at the camp yesterday
were the Rev. j. s. J. Mcconnell, presiding
elder of the South Philadelphia district,
and the Revs. E. L. Hubbard, of Crisfeld,
Md; w. w. Wilson, of Frederick, Del j.

Selling the House.

Negotiations are pending between the
special committee appointed to make the
sale of the property of the Water Witch
Steam Fire Engine Company and Edward
W. Pyle, painter, employed by the P, w
& B. Railroad Company, for the purchase Of
house on Shipley street near Fifth. The

an offer which the committee are
favorably impressed with. Two othert

property but as yet have named no figures
The probabilities are that the necessary

the week and that Pyle will open paint

In the absence of President Bush, DR..
Springer occupied the chair at the regular
meeting OF the Board of Health last evening
with Messrs Foster and Gawthrop in attend
ance.
The proper officer was instructed to bring
suit against Thomas jackson, agent for the
property 224 King street, for not abating a
nuisance after having been notified. Joseph
L. Carpenter and John Hare were also Or
dered to be brought before the judge for
maintaining a nuisance in the form of stag
nant water on lot on Adams street be-
tween Ninth and Tenth streets. Heald &,
Co., agents for property over Third street
bridge, were likewise ordered to be prosecu-
ted If they did not abaSe nuisance of an IL
legal eesspool.
Executive Officer Schultz exhibited bot
tie of water taken from a gutter leading
from Hartman g. Fehrenbach's brewery to
the Brandywine, and stated that the place
had been complained of. The authors OF
the nuisance were ordered to have the gutter
cleaned and the nuisance abated.
The secretary was instructed to notify the
garbage contractors of the Third and Fourth
districts, A. G. B. Anderson and John
Grit mage to put on enough carts to remove
all the garbage in their respective districts,
or the Board would employ teams and de-
duct the cost from the appropriation. This
action was necessary from the numerous
complaints that are made against these two
contractors. The contractor, Patrick Dolsn,
of the First District, and John E. johnson,
of The Second, are rarely if ever complained
against by people in the districts of which
they have charge.
The secretary reported three new cases
of smallpox during the past two weeks, one
on Orange street near Sixth; one on Stroud
street in the Eleventh ward, and one at
Sixth and DUPONT STU eets. Executive Officer
Schultz was allowed Sc for disinfecting the
house at Sixth and DUPONT streets, where
the smallpox recently existed. The only
other order allowed was to James Stuart, So.
