TO AID 4 SUICIDE,
Where One Farmer Helped Another
to SbUfiie on.

From the 81. Louis Republic
One Of the most curious cases in the an
nails of the criminal law will soon be tried
in the criminal court of Cincinnati. The
gist OF the case is, does one who accident
ally witnesses an unsuccessful ATTEMPT at
suicide and then aids the suicidor in a sue
cesstul attempt, become an accessory to
the crime?
group of attorneys were discussing
some novel cases yesterday. and one OF
them, lawyer from Cincinnati. narrat ed
the following facts TO a Republic reporter:
Some time last May farmer near Gin
cinnati, becoming financially involved, and
being too proud to ask the help of his
friends, attempted suicide by hanging HIM
self in his orchard. He climbed a tree. tied
one end OF the rope to his neck and the
other to limb, and then jumped. but the
rope became united at the neck by the
strain. Just as he jumped a neighbor
passed. Seeing the failure and believing
that nothing succeeds like success he VOL
unteered to show the crestfallen man how
to make a hangmans knot. and, in fact
tied the knot around the poor mans neck.
The farmer was still determined. He brisk
ly climbed the tree, again tied the rope 10
the same limb and jumped before the eyes
of his astonished neighbor. Transfixed by
the awful sight. he could do nothing The
body jerked IN dying commissions. bur still
the neightor did nothing. Presently recov-
ering his senses. he gave the alarm.
Now that man has been indicted by the
grand jury an accessory to that farm
er's self-destructon. To add to his dis
comfort and disgrace. his own mother who
mas considerable property. has disinherited
her son for his failure and neglect to stop
the old farmer in his mad course"
The reporter ventiired to ask If a case
similar 10 this had ever been tried
Not TO my knowledge" replied the at
torney. 1t Is a rare case and promises to
be what We call a celebre. There
had been no bad feeling between the two
men. On the contrary. a warm friendship
had existed for years, and each had often
accommodated the other.
The fact that the neighbor fixed the
knot: made no protest TO the man climbing
the tree or any attempt to prevent the
crime, makes il look bad for him.
ION the other hand, he says ne was jok-
ing and couldn't believe his eyes when he
saw the man climb UP the tree and tump.
The outcome of .his case will be watched
with great interest by the legal fraternity
and by the laity as WELL

Attention Is also called to the fact that

Record of the Clubs.

The full Senatorial aggregation arrived in
Washington at o'clock this morning. and
Immediately scattered for their respective
boarding houses and homes. Weather per-

for one game this afternoon. and tomorrow
begin a series of six games at National

McJames is in good fettle. and will pitch
in Baltimore today.
Captain Brown was looking well this

the cares of looking after a losing aggre-
CATION do not seem to have caused him
much loss of sleep Brown has been in the

.'Our trip through the east and west has
been disastrous one, and We are solely
Dumb plays have been our fatal mistake
and l am trying every day to remedy this
defect. Had we played on the road as We
do at National Park, our record would
have set the Washington fans wild. The
trouble with a majority of my men is that
they need the en-, Lusiastic influence OF
home crowd to make them play their best
OF course the veterans on the team play
just well away from home as when with
friends. but the younger element need
the cries and cheers of the dyed-in-the-
wool rooters before they develop the spirit
that wins games.
every man is in the best of health and
in first-class shape, and l look for great
many victories during our series at home.

Star
Mercer, McJames and King have pitched
good consistent ball all through the trip
but as | have said before their support has
been something terrible.
about the umpires l have little to say
1t seems to be our luck to run against the
rankcst in the business. and when we have
concluded that we couldn't get anything
worse in the way of decisions the regular
men drop out and we catch substitutes who
are about 80 per cent worse. But this
comes under the head of luck with me. and
/ think will even up before the season is
finished
About the trouble with DeMont, 1 can
only say that he refused to obey my in
structions. and I have placed him on the
bench. DeMont can play the game II he
wants to. but the trouble is he will not
take advice. 1 don't like to fine a player,
and i think benching DeMont will answer
its purpose just as well.
Mr.. Wagner has not returned to Wash
ington. but will probably join us in Balti-
more today. There is no news of a star
tling nature to be given out, although sew
eral deals are contemplated that / believe
will strengthen the team where it is the
weakest.
In conclusion. l want to assure the
WASHINGTON patrons of the Senators that
l VIII DO my best to get good ball out of
the team for the remainder OF the season,
and at National Park furnish them eXhib-
| tons that will repay those who attend the
games.
