Epidemic of Suicide.

MINNEAPOLIs, Mimi, April b.
Charles F. Hatch, president of the
Wisconsin, Michigan & Pacific rail-
way, committed suicide this morning
in his office, by shooting himself in
suicide is we'll nigh inexpIicable as
Mr. Hatch's business and domestic
relations were of the happiest. He
was an even tempered, contented
man and his friends are at a loss to
explain the deed. 1t is limited that
he had been specializing in wheat,
and had lost heavily and that this
caused sudden dependency. His
friends laugh at this story.

A Mysterious Fire.

This morling at 1880 O'Clock fire was dis
covered in the northwest corner room of Mrs.
Doltd's boarding house, No. PA Soledad
street. room occupied by three college boys
who are attending college here and were away
from the house at the time. The fire origi-
mated in trunk, which was locked. Burning
a large hole in the trunk it communicated
with some clothing and the carpet on the floor
and burned part of the flooring before it was
extinguished. The fire department was called
out but the fire was out before they reached
there and they were not needed. How the fire
originated is problem, though as some of the
boys are studying telegraphy. it is surmised
they had some kind of electrical apparatus in
the trunk who ignited spontaneously. The
boys names are Coen, Mcclellan and Wagner

A Wise Change.

New YORK, April IA Washing
ton special says: 1t is reported the
president comtemplates taking the
whole south front first floor of the
state department building for his ex-
ecutive offices, and establishing rou-
tine office hours there. Such a plan
would give the President of the
United States privilege which the
humblest employees of the govern
ment have, but which the chief
executive does not possess, the right
to enjoy his own home, and clerks in
some of the smaller divisions of the
state department will have more room
and more convenience than clerks at
the executive mansion.

The Fatality of the Denmark.

New YORK, April 15.-Still there is
nonews of the missing passengers and
crew of the wrecked steamer Den
mark. The big question that now
occupies the minds of marine men is
when the National steamship Den
mark arrives and will the ship bring
news of the Denmark. The National
ship is now two days and several
hours over due. There is a posi-
bility that the delay Of tire Denmark
is due to her being in collision with
the Denmark. 1t would be strange
fate that would bring these two YES
sells together thousand miles out on
the ocean. There is no means of ac-
counting for the way the Denmark
lay in the sea when sighted by the City
of Chester, except by collision, and
her stern was so deep in the water
that the waves were constantly
washing over the after deck and
her bow was so high that her keel
could be seen. The National line
steamer left London on March 80;
the Ningvalla steamer, Denmark,
left her port of Christiansand on
March 90. The vessels could not
therefore, be far apart when the lat
ter was seen water logged by the City
of Chester. Several steamships came
into port today, but so far none have
brought the wished for news.

BouIanger and the Military.

PARIS, April 15.-The Evenment

ing that Gen. Boulanger has tam
pered with the army, have been sub
mitted to the commission of the sen =
ate, which is to conduct the trial
against: Gen. .Boulanger and other
leaders of the Boulangerist party. The
arrest of a number of military men is
imminent. Warrants that were issued
for the arrest of Gen. Boulanger, NJ.
Rochefo and Count Dillon,
have been served at their re-
spective residences, this being
formality which is required to prove
that the defendants are guilty of con-
tumacy.

GRAVY ROYALTY.

PEsTH, April l5.-Emperor Francis
Joseph and Empress Elizabeth, ac-
companied by the Archduchess Vale
RE, started for Ischl at 8 o'clock last
night. 1t is officially denied that the
condition of the empress is as bad as
is reported. Her neuralgia is abating,
and it is expected the massage treat
ment she is undergoing, will effect a
cure. This denial is doubted. Nobody
was allowed to see the empress at the
railway station last night save Her
body attendants. The emperor re-
quested the ministers and all officials
whose duty it was to be present to
stay away.

Arrivals of Ocean Steamers.

LIVERPOOL, April 15.-The Guion
line steamer, Wisconsin. Captain
Warrall, hence Saturday, for New
York, before reported as returning,
reached here this morning. The
cause of her return was slight dam
age to her boilers. which was re-
paired, and the steamer proceeded
then on her voyage. The north Ger
man Lloyd steamer, Fulda, Capt. Ringk
from New York, April 9th, arrived at
Southampton at IL a. m, April 18th,
