SUICIDE,

A tragic event which occurred just in
front of the courthouse while everybody
was examining these articles caused wild
excitement. A shot was heard Just at
the entrance of Judge McConnelrs court.
A dozen lawyers and reporters rushed
out and found stretched on the sidewalk
the body of large man, revolver In
hand, and brains oozing from his skull.
He was dead, and as no one could iden.
tify him it was at once presumed that
his tragic death had some mysterious
connection with the sensational discov.
cries of the day. After an hours ,nves-
tigation, however, it was learned that
his name was Edward Rehm, and that
he had been for some time known to bd
partially insane. He doubtless com.
mitted suicide while laboring under
mental alteration.

President Harrison Deeply Moved by
the Intelligence.

WAsRIseToN, Nov. S.-Colonel Good
loe had many friends here. As u mem
bor of the republican national commit
toe he naturally enjoyed the confidence
of the chief public men of the party, and
his courtesy and genial nature gave him
warm place in the affections Of not
only those withwlom he was in politi-
cal accord but of those with whom he
differed in national Affairs. BY marriagc
he is related to senator Beck of Ken
lucky. When in the city he was frc-
qucnt visitor ut Senator Beck's resi-
dence, and here ho met many demo-
cratic members of congress.
The president knew Colonel Goodloe
we'll and esteemed him highly. The
news of his probably fatal shooting oi-
fected him toa most marked extent.
Tho Intelligence seemed to affect the
president almost as though it had been
q near relative. A book which he was
holding In his hand at the time fell TO
the floor aud for few minutes he
paced ncrvously and abstractedly up aud
down the room. The subject is the one
topic of conversation to-iight among
public men and in public places.
Colonel Dudley this afternoon, in re-
sponse to telegram asking for particu.
lars in regard to the tragedy ut I.cNing-
ton, received n message stating that
Colonel Goodloe's 5 wound was very seri-
Gus, but not necessarily fatal.

THE DISCOVERY.

Complaints mad been made recently
that the sewer at the intersection Of
Evanston Il Buena avenues was running
over and to-day workmen were sent to
investigate the trouble. The cover was
removed from the man-hole In the
center of the street and after q few
minutes work with poles and hooks
two valises were brought up. A leather
one and cheap paper one. In the
leather valise was found DR.. Cronins
prescription book, with several pre-
scriptions bearing his signature. The
paper one dropped to pieces as it was
pulled out and from it rolled a mass OF
tattered clothing, most of which had
been cut in strips. The only garment
remaining intact was vest which was
in the center and which encircled the
doctors case of surgical Instruments.
The clothes had evidently been cut up
in the hope that they would soon drop
apart and be borne away in the sower.
The clothing, surgical case and rrt-
scription book, the latter two bcing
marked with Cronin's name, were fully
identified by the Conklins and others as
the property of the murdered physiuidm.
The most damaging of all the oircum-
stances for the prisoners is tho fact that
the find was made only one block from
the spot where the bloody trunk WAS
discovered after 1t had been thrown hur-
riedly from the wagon, and only half
mile south of where the body was
found in the catch basin. The paper
valise is supposed to be the one purchased
