DEATH BEFORE DISGRACE.
'of a Commissary Sergeant at
Fort Harrison.

Helena, Mont, March lS.-This
evening word reached the city that a
soldier at Fort Harrison committed
suicide by hanging himself. Inquiry
at the fort revealed the fact that Il

o'clock and was alive, but could not

attached to the non on-commissioncd
staff. He resided in the non-com-
missioncd officers barracks with his
wife and three children. lie is an
Austrian by birth and enlisted in the
United States army 20 years ago. AT
the time Of the attempt to commit
suicide l<almus was under arrest for
gambling, had been arrested four
days ago and was waiting for trial.
He was in the habit of coming into
Helena to gamble. 1t seems he had
an intimatiOn that he would be court
martialcd and it is thought the dis
grace Of the matter was too great for
him to stand and he decided to end
the matter by the rope route. His
wife, it appears, was afraid he would
take MS ll1c ana kcpt Il constant
watch over him. This morning about
9 o'clock he could not be found and,
fearing something wrong, she started
out to find him. Down in the base
mcnt of the quarters they lived in
she found him hanging and ran
screaming out into the grounds and
summoned the guards from the
guardhousc who quickly cut him
down. Post Surgeon Carter was
sent for and has been working over
the man all day. At 0 this evening
he is still alive, but Carter says he
cannot possibly recover as he ruptur-
Cd blood vessel in his brain. His
death will make the second one at
the post since it was occupied, the
first soldier dying about II year ago,
being buried in the reservation.

William Muldoon, the veteran

ring. Corbctt, instead Of stepping
back as he should have done, simply
leaned the upper part Of his body

bone at the lower part Of the chest

right uppercut. The blow caught
Corbett right under the protruding
bone and over the spleen. No man
living could have stood up under the
pain that such a blow must have
caused" In criticising the contcs2,

Ben Mann shot Ralph Hartwcll and
it was only by a fortunate chance
that the latter was not killed in
stantly. Both men were drunk.
They had qllarrclcd short time be-
fore the shooting, but had apparently
made up again. Although there
were bystandcrs present, no one
seems to know just how the play
came up. Mann suddenly pushed
Iartwcll over to the floor and then
fired two shots at the PROSTATE man.
The first shot clipped a piece from
lIartwell's car and the second shot
struck him over the heart. The bull
let was detected by the fourth rib
and, turning into the arnpit, passed
through the hiceps and came out inst
above the elbow. Tire wound is
serious, but HartWell will recover.
Mann is under arrest. HartWcll is a
laborcr recently from Elkhorn. Mann
is a scene painter at the Coliseum

THIS MORNINGS BLAZE.
The Warehouse of Il. I'll. Springer was
Badly Rurned

This morning at o'clock the fire
alarm was turned in and the depart
ment responded promptly. The blaze
was found to be in L. III. Springer's 8
furniture warehouse on St. Louis street
and was a very difficult fire to handle.
The two's attached hose to the fire
plug at the corner and played on the
fire from the front door, while No. ones
attached toa plug on Myrtle street and
played on the fire from the roof OF the
building. 1t was impossible to enter
the premises on account of the volumes
of dense smoke confined therein with
no place to escape, but two holes were
cut in the roof and then the blaze was
brought under control and soon ex-
tinguished without much damage to
the building. The fire originated by
Stevens, the warehOusemap. striking
match to look at number on piece
of furniture. This match ignited the
excelsior on the floor and as the house
was full of infiammable matter 1t was
all a blaze. Stevens started in the
wagon TO give the alarm, but the horse
ran away throwing him out. How
ever, the horse was caught and the
alarm turned in from Springer's store
on San Antonio street.
Many of the firemeu were completely
''did up - by the smoke, but they staid
and fought the flames until the last
spark was eXGlnRulSDeu.
The warehoue was basement
building, all the furniture on the first
floor was damaged by water. smoke and
fire, while the furniture in the cellar
was badly damaged by water. The fire
was confined to the first floor and the
building itself was not damaged to any
great extent by fire, and the blaze new
er did succeed in breaking through the
roof The warehouse was packed with
goods-two car loads just having been
put in this week. 1t was fully insured.
When the fire ala rm sounded several
unhitched horses on the streets, ran
away and caused some trouble to the
fire apparatus in getting to the fire.
Two loose horses also ran away and fol-
lowed the hose cart all the way up the
street. Frank, the extra fire horse fell
in with the other three horses hitched
to the hook and ladder truck and ran
along side Of the tam all the way from
the department to the fire. He is so
used to the alarm that nothing can
stop him from going with the truck
when it leaves the department.. Sew
eral people were slightly bruised by
runaway horses and several wagons are
in the repair shop as result.
The building is owned by Caples q
Hammer,and was damaged $3.50 worth:
insured for $1,000 in the American Cen
tral of ST. Louis. Harry r. Wood agen':
loss on stock $1,000, insured for $1,000
with A. M. Ioomis in the Springfield
fire aud marine, also with Harry r
Wood for $1,000 in the Orient of Hart
ford, and $1,000 in Newark compa-
