THE VALLIKETT SUICIDE
NOTHING NEW DEVELOPED ABOUT,
THE AFFAIR.
DR.. Wade's Testimony Toek the.
Dose ON Saturday Night-dr. val
likett's Testimony.


Yesterday morning at 10 O'Clock an
inquest was held on the remains of Mrs.
Jessie Vallikett, at the undertaking
parlors of Messrs. Howry 4 Bresee, on
South Broadway. This is the case
where Mrs. Vallikett committed suicide
by taking arsenic. The inquest was not
an extended one, only two witnesses
being examined-the physician who at
tended the unfortunate lady and the
husband. 1t was developed by the tes-
timony of DR.. Wade that the poison was
taken Saturday night, instead OF Sunday
morning, as was given out in most
mysterious way by those to whom
HERALD reporter applied for informa-
tion Sunday afternoon.
DR.. Wade said that he was called to
the case about midnight Saturday night.
He found Mrs. Vallikett conscious, but
in q very weak state. He spoke to her.
and she very reluctantly told him that
she had taken arsenic. She fingered
until about IL O'Clock Sunday, when abe
died. She would not give any reason
for taking the poison. He learned that
she had been an invalid for some time,
but according to his testimony he took
little pains to secure much of history
of the case. He went on to say that the
woman told him she took the poison OF
her own free will, and that she would
not say where she got the arsenic. He
produced package containing the
arsenic that was left, and said that it
had no label. but while he was handling
the package label fell out. It was an
ordinary druggist's label. but the top
part Of it had been clipped off, and only
the words 'sArsenic, Poison" remained.
W. G.. Vallikett, the husband. was
called and was very much broken down,
hanging his head and repressing deep
emotion. He said:
"We have been living for two months
at Mrs. Jones's lodging house on Fourth
street, No. 313. My wife was % years
old yesterday. She was q native of
Pennsylvania. We have been in Los
Angeles about three years, and have
been married three years. There was
no particular reason l know of for her
act. She had poor health. She was
been very delicate. She never threatened
l1:30 Saturday night from T. B. Mason's
business place on Spring street. where
1 am employed. l found something
wrong, and went for doctor. She told
me she had taken poison; told me where
it was, and asked me not to drink out of
the pitcher or touch the package. +
could not bear to question her very
much. asked her once where she got
the poison, but she would not tell me.
She said she had her handkerchief done
up in the package. 1 think she was ra-
tional when she took the poison"
After the husband had been examined
DR.. Wade addressed the jury. and spoke
at some length about druggists sell
ing poison without complying with
the law.
The Jury returned verdict in accord
ance with tie facts. and said nothing
about DIR. Wade's argument.

KILLED BY THE GAS.

The Fate of Workman Yesterday
Afternoon.
A fatal accident took place yesterday
afternoon under the east end Of the
First.street viaduct, near the Terminal
depot, which resulted in the death of
Michael Skelly, one of the employees Of
the gas company.
He was engaged in tapping the gas
main. and was down in the excavation
which had been made. He succeeded in
tapping the main, but the gas which
came out overpowered him and he fell
down inside the hole. People soon col
lected around the hole, the alarm being
given that man was lying there uncon-
scious. A passing teamster pulled him
out, but it was found that he was dead.
He was removed to the morgue, and an
inquest will be held this morning at 10
O'Clock.
The deceased was man about 38

ExooRIArING TaE REPUBLICANs
A scsthing Arrangement OF Them by Hon
W. Il @ Rreckinridre.


Hon. w. p. c. Breckenridge and Major
Holmes Conrad addressed four thousand
people last Saturday at the grand Demo-
cratic rally and barbecue on the Fair
grounds at Staunton. Both speeches are
reported as great efforts. Colonel Breck-
inridge's arraignment of the Republican
party is said TO have been the most
scathing and terrific ever heard.
Secretary Morton, of the Worlds Fair
board of Virginia, who was present,
caught and noted the following words
OF the great Kentucky orator:
"The only safety for the country is
IN the complete destruction of the Repub-
lican party. l never make personal at

OF them who might be combined into some
other political organization that would be
benehcent to the country, but as at pre-
sent organized the influences of the Re-
publican party are pernicious and in
furious. and ! attack that party as no
longer respectable"
Later In his speech. Colonel Breckin-
ridge referred TO President Harrison
and said: II have not a word to say
against that man over whose household
now there is the shadow of death. A
prayer doubtless when l refer to this sad
household will go up to God from many
