DOUBLE SUICIDE.
Shocking Tragedy fn a Detrait Hotel-
The Deed Premeditated.

DETROIT, January S.-A double suicide
was committed in this city Saturday night
and Sunday evidently with the coolest pre-
meditation. A man named j. Edward
Mouck and wife were parties 10 the shock
ing transaction He had been connected
with the customs department at Chatham,
Ont., but was disch arged few weeks since and
came with his wife to this city, where they
took boa d at the Franklin House. Satur-
day eveoiug their month old child was given
into the temporary charge of lady con-
nected with the hotel to take care OF. Mouck
then locked his wife in her room and went
away. The lady finally getting tired OF her
charge sought about midnight TO return the
child 10 its mother, but was unable TO get
into her room. Entrance Was finally secured
by means of q pass-key, when Mrs. Monck
was found dead in her bed, With every evil
dence that she had died from morphine ad-
ministered by her own hand or that of
her husband. The same evening Monck
went to the Brunswick House, registered
under an assumed name, aud telling
clerk he would not want breakfast, went
to the room assigned him. Here he was
found Yesterday afternoon in an unconscious
condition from the effects of dose OF NOR
phine, and died later in the evening, all
efforts to restore him to consciousness prov
ing unavaiing. Both parties were under
thirty, and have parents and other relatives
living at Chatham. II is supposed that
despoudency over his discharge from his
position and failure OF all efforts for res
toratiou drove the pair TO the COM
mission of the crime. Next to nothing Is
known Of their previous history or any other
cause to which this shocking event eau be
attributed. Relatives have already taken
the bodies back to Chatham.

Safe In Mexico.

Special to the Appeal
NASHVILLE, January S.-Information was
received here tonight from Detective Price,
Of San Antonio, the man who arrested Polk
at that place, that the latter had been re-
leased by writ OF habeas corpus, and thnt he
had gone to Mexico. 1t was expected that
he would be out OF the State of Texas to-
morrow. As there Is no extradition treaty
between the United States and Mexico,
there is little possibility of his re-
capture. Senator Harris is OF the opinion
that Mexico, in order to curry favor with
the United States government, will secure
the arrest of Polk and surrender him in,o
the United States lines. Capt. Fleming,
secretary TO Polk, will be examined by a
special committee tomorrow morning, Po-
liceman Fields and Detective Porter were
to have gone 10 San Antonio tonight by
authority of the committee, but when the
information was received that Polk had
been released the proposed trip was aban-
doned. They had in their possession a
requisition on the governor of Texas.
Later.-A dispatch was received tonight
that Polk was still in San Antonio. Sena-
tor Porter received telegram asking if
Polk was etill wanted in Tennessee. He
replied that he certainly was, and to arrest
him and bring him to Nashville.

The circular goes on TO say that The
marked increase in the number of failures
in the last two years can have only one TO-
depreciation, namely, that the risks Of bust.
ness, and the losses by bad debts, are incress-
ing in greater proportion than the growth
in The volume of trade, or the possibilities
of profit. Aud yet, with all the disasters of
the past year, The figures do not attain to
ANYTHING like the number which was reached
even in wears when trade was most restricted,
speculation most dormant and production
hardly half OF what 1t is today. Thus, in
1878, the number of failures which occurred
in the United States reached 10000, aud the
amount of the liabilities S234O00. 900, as
against 673S, and liabilities of less than
SlO2, 600. 900, for this year. So that while
there are dangerous tendencies 10 the busi-
ness OF the country, indicated by the fire.
quency OF recent failures, the magnitude OF
the disasters yet attained is small in proper
ton. This is especially apparent when the
fact is recalled of the large increase in the
number of trsders, not only in the older set
tied parts OF the country, but by the extern
sion OF business TO numerous regions unoc-
Cupied i've years ago.
Referring TO the large expansion in credits,
the agency pertlnently remarks:
ave must, therefore, look to other causes
to account for the increased failures than
those that are discoverable in the condition
OF The country. The chief OF these, beyond
question, is the alarming extension Of the
hoes of credit which the last two years have
witnessed. This is, OF course, the result of
undue anxiety to dispose of goods without
sufficiently careful scrutiny as to the ability
to pay for them, and is directly traceabie 10
over production in manufacturing centers,
in anticipation that the volume Of business
would be maiutained at a ratio of increase
az great as that which marked the recovery
froo, years of depression, economy and re-
stricted business TO a state of the highes,
prosperity. II the growth in the extent and

port"
Other bondholders expressed similar surprise,
but not all the same doubt A broker who had
been largely interested in Tennessee bonds said:
81 do not know that am surprised at this. A
little incident that happened last summer will
perhaps explain the reason. When the State Off
Gers were here l took TO them a considerable
amount OF bonds for exchange I wouldn't even
trust a clerk to lott. When presented my bonds
only one OF the State officers was present, and
rlght before my eyes he signed the new bonds for
himself and the two other officers whose signatures
were necessary. / objected, of course, to this

All the Tennessee bondholders who were in

stantly: No wonder that he could not pay the
interest; he didn't have the money" They
sgreed that II the report WIS correct the money
must have been lost in buying the States bonds

when here, had remarked frequently that he was
large holder OF the bonds but no particular i'm
cause II was supposed to be made simply to show
his faith in them and induce exchanges by the
holde of the old bonds. 1t was suggested as not
at all improbable tnat Mr.. Polk had been acting,
