POOR SORT OLE DETECTIVE.

IF the fortune teller actually knows any
thing about the murder. she should be
compelled 70 tell IT, If she knows nothing

power to produce the murderer merely by

of very. serious matter, and may be the
means of creating a deal of trouble for

CHICAGO SUICIDE

drowning last night of an
unidentified man.
"Mat" Morgan and T. H.
Cronin were sitting in the little
switch shanty beside the Illinois
Central tracks at the foot of
Thirteenth street. A man and
woman carrying on q animated
conversation walked down the
tracks from Twelfth street and
stopped a short distance from
them. Hearing the words,
won't you say good byel"
Morgan and Cronin looked out
of the shanty. They saw the
man throw off his coat and vest
and leap into the water. The
woman screamed and Morgan
and Cronin ran to the edge of
the breakwater. He has
drowned" said the woman, and
the two men watched the surf
ace for the body to rise. Poles
were secured with the eXpecta-
ton of towing the man ashore
when he should appear on the
surface. While this was being
done the woman ran rapidly
down the tracks and disap-
peared.
Finally the mans body was
recovered but nothing was
found that would lead to the
Identification, and no trace of
the woman could be ascertained.
