to kill himself early this morning in a room at
Mr.. Calls residence in this city. The young
man had been drinking heavily for several days
and returned last night TO Mr.. Calls house,
where he lives. His condition was alarming
and he was assisted to bed. At about 2 o'clock
Mr.. Call arose to sec how Alexander was getting
along. He found him lying. on the bod, bathed
in blood from q knifc wound In the throat. The
weapon used was an ordinary table knife, which
was found on the bod. Tho physician who had

The wound in the throat was found to DO a
small matter, although Alexander was weak
from tho loss of blood. His condition mentally,
however, WAS dangerous. Ho talked Of some
certain politicians to have him murdered. and
insisted thut both he and the ex-senator were to
be killed. Several times during his talk Alex
ande referred to some WON n who had promised
to marry him but now ~refuses. He finally sue
cumbed to opiatos, and did not awaken until

of q private physician.
Mr.. Call has continued his residence in Wash

March, Mr. Alexander has always lived with
him and boon treated as ono Of the family. He

say the only cause Of his attempt at suicide Is
that he was temporarily mentally deranged as o
result of his drinking.
