CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 5.-Msrcus c..
Stearns, one of Chicago's Oldest and
wealthiest residents, attempted to COM
NIT suicide at his handsome Michigan
avenue residence to-day. He fred four
bullets into his head, producing wounds
from which recovery is impossible. The
members of the family profess absolute
ignorance beyond the fact that for some
time Mr.. Stearns has been IN depressed
spirits. The four shots were heard in
rapid succession, and moment later
Mr.. Stearns was found stretched on his
bed, ms head in pool of blood. It is
surmised that his depression was due to
the recent death of his favorite daughter,
wife Of eX-Mayor Carter H. Harrison.
MIR. Stearns was one of the leading mem
bers of the board of trade, and has an

account Of a freight wreck which oc-
Cured south of that place last night.
When the track was clear the foremost
Cincinnati train started out from Somer-
set ilrst and met and passed safely
north-bound train. Then al a safe dis
lance behind il the fated No. started
out. Freight train No. 20 north bound
was side-tracked at Sloan's Valley.
When the first Cincinnati train passed
south the crew of the freight appear to
nave overlooked the fact that No 5 was

started northward. Less than quarter
