FINANCE AND COMMERCE
Now York Stock Market,

NEW YORK, July 22.-The security
market was weaker this morning than
at any time since the present downward
movement set in and many stocks and

and heavy liquidations. The bank fail
ures at Milwaukee added to the depres
Fsion. Erie was notably weak, common
breaking to 1o% and preferred to %,

fairs has been much more extravagant

Whatcom, even previo US to the purchase
of the water works, paid nothing for
fire protection and for the public schools

light and water companies.
Whatcom's water supply comes from
Lake Whatcom and is much superior to
that of Fairhaven, although the latter
place has much more substantial system
OF pipes and hydrants. The sewer system
OF Fairhaven also is far superior to that of
Whatcom. This place has free delivery

Fairhaven in the event of consolidation.
From the standpoint of the people here

AN OLD MANS SUICIDE
Charles T. Fay Shoots Himself
in Old Tacoma.
DESPONDENCY THE CAUSE.
Was . Well-Kuown Resident OF Stella
COON and Leaves IN Aged Vito
and Invalid Brother.

TACOMA. Feb. 16-TSpecial. l-Ex-Countv
Commissioner Charles T. Fay, aged 90
years. sucIded this afternoon in room in
the Pioneer block, Old Tacoma, by dis
charging a 3S-caliber revolver in his right
temple week ago Wednesday he DIS
appeared from his home in Steilacoom and
his whereabouts could not be learned
definitely until 3 o'clock this morning,
when John Gonna picked him up on the
street at Old Tacoma and took him to the
Pioneer block. This morning he left his
room while his friends were looking for
him. and during his absence probably
bought a revolver.
Those who conversed with h i'm here dur
ing the past week found his mind giving
way. He talked of his troubles. his in
valid wife and her brother. a consumptive
who lived with them. Although he is
considered to be worth considerable
money. he had no ready cash and had to
negotiate loan recently. Since losing
his only means Of support as county COM
missioner. having been defeated in the
last election, he has worried urduly over
his financial condition, and in rambling
letter by him he fears his wife Is left with
out means. He had no children, but his
former husband. He came here from
Massachusetts, where he had in his youth
worked in n shoe factory forty-two years
ago. A nickel and jack knife were about
the only articles found is hin pockets:
Mr.. Fay lived at Steilacoom. and was
generally known throughout the county,
having been county commissioner for his
district for series OF years. His snowy
b,fr l., hn
missed by many an old settler, while his
sudden demise will be keenly felt by
friends and relatives. Mrs. Fay was his
second wife, and the old couple were
much attached TO each other. Mrs. Fay
has been an invalid for many years, and
it is feared the old gert.eman's rash act
may be followed by her utter prostration
and subsequent death. Mr.. Fay was a
man of some executive ability. of gentle
manner and mild and inoffensive citizen
