AFTER A LONG LIFE
An Old Man Is Suffocated by Escapin
Coal Gas,

An Old Man Is suffocated by Escaping
Coal Gas.
J. J. Mundwyler Sr. was found dead yes
terday in his room at 1919 Twentieth street
by his granddaughter, who went to call
him for breakfast. He did not respond to
her knocks on the door, which she opened,
and was almost overcome by rush Of gas
from the chamber of death. She saw the
old man lying in death upon the bed, and
alarmed the household, but it was too late.
DIR. Thrallekeller was called, and worked
on the body for over an hour without caus-
ing it to show any sign Of life, so the Cor
oner was notified.
There is pipe with two jets connected
with it in the room, and the theory advanced
is that Mundwyler turned one of them and
that the match went out before he had it
lit. Being rather absent-minded. he prob
ably struck another match and turned on
the second jet, forgetting that he had left
the first one still open. He then retired
and was suffocated.
The deceased was 70 years of age. a ma
tive of Switzerland, and was in comforta-
Bile circumstances. There is nothing in
connection with his death to suggest suicide.

A NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

There is probably no other journal east
of the Allegheny Mountains which talks so
much and with such little effect as the
World. Its editorial opinions have no
value whatever and are quoted only as il
lustrations of amusing absurdity. The
latest discovery of the World is that under
the Silver Bill as amended in the Senate
Committee the Treasury will be required to
purchase silver bullion without regard TO
price. 1t represents that the Treasury
may buy silver at 81 20 for the bullion in a
412115-grain dollar, and thus open promis-
ing speculation for bullion-dealers in the
way of melting up dollars and selling the
silver bullion to the Government. AS all
the silver bills introduced or talked of have
limited the price to be paid for silver to
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1890-06-14

81 for the 374h grains of pure silver in
standard dollar, the scarecrow of the World
is exposed at the first glance. The object
of the silver men is to bring silver up 10 its
old ratio with gold and then provide for
free coinage of both metals. The Senate
Committee has stricken out the free COIN
age provision, but there will be no trouble
whatever about free coinage when silver
rises to the ratio of 16 to for gold.
