SUICIDE OF SOLDIERS.
Startling Facts Regarding European Ar
mies-E6ects of Rigid Discipline.

Startling Facts Regarding European Ar
mies-Enects of Rigid Discipline.
DR.. Longer, who was appointed at the
late international medical convention
of London to report about the number
of suicides among soldiers of various
Dationalities, published. the results of
his Investigations. From the doctors
report, based upon the military statis-
ties from 1875 to 1887, it appears that the
largest number of suicides occurred in
the Austrian army, averaging every
year 1870 to every 10000 soldiers. This
does not include forty cases of foiled at
tempts at suicide, and it represents 90
per cent. of the general mortality
among the Austrian soldiers.
Next to Austria is Germany, which
from 1878 to 1888 averaged sixty-three
to every 10000 soldiers, not counting
ten cases of unsuccessful attempts at
self-destruction. In the Italian army
from 1874 to 1889, on the average, forty
soldiers in every 10000 committed sui
eide every year. The French army
from 1872 to 1889 lost in Europe twenty
nine soldiers to every 10000 annually,
and in Algeria it lost just twice as many
by suicide. In Belgium there occurred
twenty-four, in England twenty three,
in Russia twenty, and in Spain four.
teen soldiers to every 10000 committed
suicide.
In previous years in England the
greatest number of suicides occurred
among old soldiers, but since the condi-
tions of the service were changed the
number of young suicides increased in
the army. In France, Italy, Germany
and Austria most of the suicides are
young soldiers; in Austria especially
mostly recruits commit suicide in the
in the first few months of their joining
the army.
Soldiers serving a term of imprison.
ment seldom commit seH-destruction,
but they commit it mostly when other
disciplinary measures are applied to
| them.
The perferred means of suicide is,
among the foot soldiers, the use of fire.
arms, while cavalrymen in most cases
use the moose or cut their threats. The
suicides using firearms for their pur-
pose generally shoot themselves in the
| head. The native Algerians form an
| exception to this rule, because disflgur-
ing the head is considered a great sin
among the Arabs. They direct the ball
to the heart In the summer season
suicide by drowning occurs very often
| among the soldiers.
The cause of suicide in the army is,
in most cases, fear Of punishment, but
in the Austrian and Russian armies
aversion to the military service or rude
treatment provokes many soldiers to
| self-destruction.

VESSELS BURNEDxAT SEA.
Considered Probable That in Each Case
Lives Were Lost.

LONDON, Jan. CIT is believed that
two vessels have recently been burned at
sea, and it is considered probable that in
both cases every soul on board was lost.
Three incoming steamers have reported
passing burning vessels supposed to
have been laden with petroleum for Eu
rope.
The last vessel to report passing one OF
the burning ships is the Egyptian Mon
arch, Capt. Irwin, of the Wilson line.
Capt Irwin says he left New York on
Jan. 5, and that at a. m. on Jan. 16, he
sighted a wooden ship, apparently OF
American build, which was on fire and
burning furiously as if her cargo We're
petroleum. A high sea was running and
nothing could be done to help the crew.
AS reported yesterday, the British
steamship Imperial Pripce, Captain Cox,
which left New York on January 4, ar
rived at Portland on her way to Leith
and reported having passed a burning
vessel This was on the morning of
January 49,
1t will thus be seen that the Egyptian
Monarch and the Imperial Prince on
January 16 sighted a burning vessel in
the same latitude and longitude about
400 miles southwest of Cape Clear, Ire
land Captain Cox expressed the opinion
that all the burned vessels crew must
have persisted, as no boats could have
lived in the sea then running.
The second vessel reported on fire was
seen January | in latitude Al north and
longitude 43 west, by the commander OF
the British steamship City of Dundee,
from Norfolk and Newport News January
5 He described her as a large steamer
and said she had been abandoned. The
City of Duudee's commander did not see
any boats, although he made search for
them, and came to the conclusion that as
there was heavy sea on all hands haC
persisted or had been picked up by pass
ing vessel This burned vessel was seer
about $50 miles northwest of the Azores
and about 800 miles southwest of where
the Egyptian Monarch and Imperial
Prince sighted a burning ship.

full accident has just occurred A large
congregation thronged one of the numer-

celebrated While worship was going
on, and without any warning. the roof of
the church fell in with a tremendous
crash The people were crushed beneath
the great beams, and fearful cries went
up from the struggling and writhing
mass.
Those who were able rushed to the
windows and doors for egress, and a
number were hurt in the effort to get
out. The people of the town hurried to
the rescue and aided in extricating the
dead and the injured. Meantime fire
broke out in the wreck from the fire that
had been used to warm the church.
Fortunately the rescuers succeeded in
eXtinguishing the flames without addi-
tonal loss of life. The number of
killed and injured is estimated at sixty
five or seventy.

Mcclure Indicted for Murder.

GOSHEN, N. Y, Jan. 23.-The grand
jury has found an indictment against
Fred Mcclure for murder in the first
degree. McGuire's crime was committed
on Mrs. Amelie G. Gregory on October
IA, near Middletown, N. Y. Mcclure

ment was presented on the strength of
the testimony of his accomplices, Sarah
A Brown and Warren Brazington, who
testified before the grand jury that Nc
Guite is the perpetrator and they aces
series only so far in that they had knowl-
edge of the crime and shared in the
plumber. They were also remanded.
