Messenger Dugan,s Death.

IT TURNS OUT TO HAVE BEEN CASE OF SUICIDE
IL has transpired that the death OF JOHN Dugan,
the messenger OF Gen. Sheridan's Office which oc-
CURED last Friday, was the result OF suicide. 1t is
thought Dugan's mind was affected by financial
troubles. Last Monday he wandered OF aimlessly
after leaving the War Department, and was gone
for several hours, when he returned to his home,
6l3 I'D street. The next day he was confined TO
his bed by nervous prostration, and was attended
by DIR. II. NJ. Newman. Friday he got up from bed,
stating that he was going TO the War Department,
and LETT the house. He, however, soon returned
home and went to bed. About half an hour later
Mrs Dugan went to his bedroom and found him
dead. DIR. Newman had seen him a few hours be-
fore, and he then seemed to be so well that the
doctor at once concluded that his death was due
TO poison. In an empty glass, standing near the
bed, the physician discovered traces OF arsenic,
and a small package containing half an ounce OF
arsenic was found concealed in the bed clothes.
Coroner Patterson came 10 the same conclusion
that Or. Newman had reached and gave a certin-
cate OF death by suicide. IL was found that Dugan
had purchased an ounce OF arsenic at drug store,
saying he wanted IL to kill rats with. Dugan had
been employed In the War Department for num-
Der OF years, and was very popular among the
clerks He was originally from Indianapolis, and
bis body will be sent there for interment. He
leaves wife and two children, aged four and two
years, respectively.
