tanned severe scalp wound on the back
Of his head st 7.45 O'Clock, Friday morn

and tho next thing that he knew he was
sitting beside the railroad track in .
dazed condition with the blood flowing
from an ugly wound in bis head.
He inclines 10 th. belief that the cigar
mads him faint. When he fell uncon-

duoing the cut. As he missed his pocket
book afterward, it was thought that he

having his wounds baiidaged by De-
tective Jones was taken to his home, No.

The Rev. Henry Greenfield Sohorr,
formerly rector OF Grace L. ". Church,
BrandywIne hundred, and at the time Of
his death assistant rector of st. Paula r.
f. Church, the largest and most fashion
able house OF worship in Baltimore, oom-
mi,ted suicide on Sunday morning by
shooting himself through the head.
All sorts OF theories are advanced as to
the cause OF the rash act, but the most
plausible 10 that he he'd been unfortunate
in love affair. But he was alsc the
victim of remorse, for he considered him
self Indirectly responsible for the death
OF friend. About year ago be en-
dorsed note for 81 900 for college
chum in MsKeespOrt, Pa, ami when the
paper came due no whs Obliged 10 meet
payment. Last week he received letter
frotn his ftiend ssking Sohorr TO come 10
Scranton and FIX up the matter, He
complied with the request and after D
friendly conference 1t was arranged that
Schorr should be paid In weekly install
ments. Ihs settlement was apparently
satisfactory to both men and the minister
returned TO Baltimore.
Soon after reaching home he received
telegram stating that his young friend
had killed himself. He at once went
back to Scranton and oftioiated OF the
funeral. He felt much depressed at the
time, but II was thought that he would
soon recover his usual spirits.
