THE CAUSES THAT LED YOUNG NEW YORKER TO
KILL HIMSELF.
There Is q romance connected with the lock OF
fair hair found In the clothes OF young Arthur c.
Bisbee, who committed suicide In New York Sun.
day by shooting himself Five years ago Mrs. Caro-
line Reichard, widow, lived on 22d street. So did
young Bisbee. They became very friendly Two
years ago Blsbee took lodgings at No. waverly
Place and Mira Reichard took room in the same
building. The couple frequently went out to
gether. The spot where Bisbee took his life In the
woods Of High Bridge, was where he and Caroline
often went on Sundays, when the weather was
fine. The fact that he was dependent and unable
to make Roadway without assistance from his
father seemed to prey upon young Btsbee's mind,
and finally caused the rash act Mrs ReIchard is
q pretty, haired widow, 32 years old She
has o little daughter OF ten. and IL q dreSsmaker.
1t wasshe was who gave the police Information
about the probable intention Of Bisbee TO commit
suicide In doing 80 she played the role Of land
lady, and completely threw the reporters and
police on the scent as to who the lady was who
gave the SEX OF fair hair found on the dead mans
person. The real landlady Of No 5 Waverly Place
Is Mrs. Mansfield, quiet, retiring woman, who re
fused to say anything except that Mrs Reichard
rented room from her just opposite to that Of
MSbee.

CORONER PATrRRsoN's OPINION,
A STAR reporter saw Coroner Patterson and
asked: 'Could it have possibly been an ACCIDENT
The coroner struck his head significantly, and
added: s'No; oh, no. The muzzle OF the pistol was
damned right against his breast, and the dis
charge burnt both his upper and uDdershirtn
subsequently the reporter talked with Mr. James

tne dlScharge must have been accidental. He said

he has seemed to worry great deal more as he
was good republican. She says he LETT home this
