ENDED HIS TROUBLES.
w. A. Hammond Drowned Him
self in Lake Michigan--Vice-
President of a Defunct Chicago
Bank.

Bank.
Chicago, Jan. Wv. A. Ham
mond, vice president of the National
Bank of Illinois, committed suicide
early this morning by drowning
himself in Lake Michigan, near his
palatial home in Evanston. He dis
appeared from his home after mid
night and was missing until shortly
after noon to-day, when two bows
found his body in the lake. Sixteen
year-Old W. +. Gedney, with com
panion, was walking along the
beach in the vicinity of Church
street when they sighted the BODY
floating only few, feet from the
sh ore. The face was looking down
ward, but the boys were able to
recognize the object as the body of
a man. The boys Immediately ran
for assistance and conducted two
policemen to the spot. The BODY
had by that time washed almost
upon the beach and the policemen
b I'd little difficulty in hauling it in,
IAN ambulance was called and the
body was removed to an undertake
ing establishment.
Mr.. Hammond retired as usual
asst night. This morning the mem
bers OF his family on going to his
room found it empty. Search was
begun for him and it finally led his
friends to the Dempster street pier.
Mr.. Hammond was active in the
management; in fact, is said to have
been the responsible head of the
bank, since President Schneider
was too feeble to do much work
The large loans to the Calumet
Electric Co., particularly, and to
others, which resulted in the closing
OF the bank, are understood to have
been made by Mr.. Hammond.

These proposals began coming
by mail almost as soon as Luet-
CERT was arrested. They came
from many States, some in poetry
and others in prose, many of them
in foreign languages, but most of
them, of course, in English. The
most amusing of all these epistles
come from Memphis woman,
who proposed scheme to rescue
the sausage maker on a certain day
of the late trial. If he favored
the plan her instructions were to
wear a white, flower on his right
lapel. He was to remain perfect
ly supine whatever happened, and
to make no resistance or cry out.
His unknown rescuer was to hy-
pnotize the court, jury, bailiffs and
and spectators and convey Luet-
CERT through the crowd and out
into "the free air, liberty and me. )"
Luetgert admits that he got the
white flower and wore it as he was
told, and although he waited, SUI
pinely," his promised deliverer
never came. While this particu-
lar letter might have been gotten
up as a joke, there can be no
doubt that many of those now in
his possession are genuine, and
they all 60 to show, as already set
forth, the strange, morbid impulse

The Convention Scheme.

1t is an open secret about Caron-
delet street that if the proposition
to hold constitutional convention
is voted upon affirmatively by the
people in January, majority of
the delegates Slected at the same
time, it is believed, will be favora-
BILE to three important projects,
now quietly under way.
While the act providing for the
holding of the constitutional con-
vention prohibits the reputation
of any of the State obligations al
ready recognized, there is nothing
to prevent recognition of some
of thos~old obligations that have
practically been repudiated. Quiet
ly the scheme is now being work
ed to have the recognition. 1t
means a million dollars. and those
manipulating the scheme have
done so, in such a quiet manner
that only now is it being realized
what is up.
Among the obligations which
were floating about the Confede-
rate money, but which are now all
controlled are the Metropolitan
Police warrants and bonds. the
"Baby Bonds" and the Burke
issue of the agricultural and me-
chanical college bonds. There
obligations over about the million
dollar figure and there is reason
to believe that they will be reco-
gnized by the constitutional con-
vention if it is ever held.
Among the Democratic leaders
in the State Central Committee
there are men who are interested
in the obligations or the people
who hold them. Among the ward
leaders are men who know all
about it and have already made
the announcement of their choice
for delegates to the constitutional
convention. Some of these pro-
posed delegates are directly int er-
ested and it is an open secret that
in two cases at least ward leaders
who have announced their choice
for delegates have made such
choice-a trade for the cancella-
ton of obligations or the receipt
of new money.

Morbid Feminine Gush.

The morbid interest in certain
class Of females take in criminals
has always been a puzzle to the
thinking members of every intelli-
gent community. 1t seems as
though this strange concern re-
'ceives fresh impetus in proportion
to the magnitude of the crime a
culprit is charged with.
This anomalous state of things
was never better illustrated than
in the case of Luetgert, the alle-
ged Chicago wife murderer. The
manner in which it is charged he
killed his wife gave him a world
wide notoriety, and the illicit mo-
tive behind it lent an additional
glamour to the burly prisoner.
From the first he has been the OBJ
ject of extraordinary curiosity on
the par6of women, and the follow
ing tabs, which has come to light,
will give some idea ofathe extent
to which the curiosity decended:

THAT TARIFF BILL.

The United States Senate is a pc
culiar body. 1t has way Of its own
and that way is often peculiar. When
the Dingley bill went before the Sen
ate Finance Committee the expecta-
ton was that it would be amended
and that expectation has been real
lied, we tear in manner that is not
for the best interests of the country
or the Republican party.
The bill was presented to the full
committee Tuesday morning and very
soon thereafter vote was taken on
reporting it to the Senate. Senator
tones. Of Nevada, voted with the Re-
publicans and very soon thereafter it
was before the Senate.
There is much diversity Of opinion
as to the changes that have been
made. Among the amendments that
attract most attention are the duty OF
10 cents pound on tea, an increase
of IA cents a barrel on beer, gener-
al increase on wool, duty on
hides, reduction on tobacco, an
increase on lead, a scaling down
on iron and steel and an increase on
refined sugar. The fact is land we
regret to express it, the Dingley bill
met the fate which befell the Wilson
bill. 1t is patched all over. That it
will be very materially changed be-
fore it becomes operative is a safe
prediction.
The retroactive clause is omitted
and those who know say that the
Hawaiian reciprocity law is repealed.
The charge is made that the Sugar
Trust is favored, which if true will be
fatal as the House will never agree to
the passage of measure that is sug-
ar coated.
There is general regret that the
Senate committee took such radical
action. If as has been suggested it
was with view to securing votes of
Western Senator's mistake has been
made. The honest expression Of

The trespass law was materially
amended by the legislature last win
ter. Hereafter persons wishing to
hunt or fish on the lands of another
will be cautious and secure permits
sion of the owners before they go
upon their premises for that purpose
The trespassers will think so especi-
ally if he has no money to pay his
fine. The new law prevents persons
from shooting, hunting or fishing on
any enclosed premises without the
owners consent. If he disobeys he
forfeits So to the owner and may be
put under 500 bonds for his good
behavior one year. Failing to get
security, the offender must 60 to Jail
for month. The county court may
make this law applicable to all lands
or to those whose owners so desire.
