TION AMONG THE PASSENGERS.
Wanted to Die Because n board
cr's Wife Was jealous of Her

Clara Wech. Ii years old. a domestic in
a boarding house at .CS West Thirteenth

fiecting on her character. which made her
respondent. After brooding over the suspi-
cions which had been directed upon her
she came to the copclusion that she had
rather die than live longer.
Clara went to the depot early YESTERDAY Y

about the depot, attracting the attention
of the officials. She finally took a seat at
the lunch counter and called for Il sand
sprinkled arsenic. She suddenly fell to
the floor in an unconscious condition and
medical attendance was summoned. An
emetic was given her and she was then re-
moved to Central police station. where she
was treated by the police surgeon and re-
vived sufficiently TO be taken TO her home
in Riverview.
She at first absolutely refused to give
any information relating to herself and
stoutly denied that size had taken anything
whatever. When, however. Mr.. Saving
went TO the station in search of her, she
disclosed her name, but insisted that she
had swallowed no poison. The depot Off
ciais thought she had taken a powder COM
posed of pulveriZed zinc, but the police sur
geon v as of the opinion that she had taken
d small dose of arsenic.
Police Matron Lee asked the girl if she
wished to go home and Saving offered to
escort her. but Mrs. Lee refused to permit
anyone but an officer TO accompany her
home. Clara at first refused to go home
but Mrs. Lee insisted and she finally con-
sented and was accompanied by an officer
She had several dollars in money on her

CIGARETTES IN CHICAGO.
But 200 Dealers Have Applied for Ii
ccnses Under the New
Ordinance,

Chicago March H.-There were 800
places in Chicago to-day where cigarettes
may he bought. Tomorrow. when the
new law will have gone into effect. there
will he not more than 200 places. This is
revealed bv the canvass that has been
made by the police department, which in
dicates that only Il small proportion OF the
dealers will be able to afford to pay the
license fee of 800. OF these. seventy-five
places are downtown, and il will he difficult
for a schoolboy to buy cigarettes. None
will be sold within 200 feet of school
house What the effect will be on the con-
sumption of cigarettes Is unknown. but ii
Is thought that 1t will be reduced at least
~ per cent, those who are deprived of 1t
being boys. who are expected TO cease
when the temptation Is removed. especially
as the provision against selling them to
children is to be enforced.
Alderman Coughlin's ordinance. passed
on March l. will be vigorously enforced. At
tirSt the dealers thought that IT was Il mere
that the cigarette manufacturers would en-
deavor to have the law declared unconsti-
tutional. But they have awakened to Il
realization that the law is to be enforced
if. The few who have applied for license
believe that their business will increase
enough 10 make II profitable. The dealer
makes only seven-eighths of cent on each
The small dealers cannot afford to pay that
tax, hut the big tobacco stores think they
will be able to make much as before.
Ii has been said that the price of cigar
downtown is contemplating that but some
of those in the suburbs. especially those
who will have practical monopoly of the
business in their neighborhood will en-
dearor TO recoup themselves for their out
lay by adding an additional cent to the
price OF their wares.
