Probable Cause of the Deed-Had Pre-
viously Threatened to Take Own Life.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.J
Bidjeford, May a.-Tbe horrifying spec
tacle of an aged woman dangling at the
end Of rope which she had attached to
a GROSS beam in her own wood shed, was
witnessed by several residents of South
Biddeford today.
The woman who thus sought to end
her life was Mrs. Mary Olive Bates,
widow Of George Bates. Temporary in
sanity was the cause assigned. She was
out down before life was extinct but she
has remained all day in an unconscious
condition and there is only the slightest
possibility of her recovery.
q Since the sudden death of her husban
about six years ago, Mrs. Bates had di.
vided her time between the old home-
stead on the Pool road and the residence
of her son, George p. Bates in South
Lawrence Mass, in which city he is
employed In the Boston & Maine car
works. Three weeks ago she returned
to Biddeford to pass the summer and
her son engaged the services Of neigh.
Dor, Mrs. Green, as companion for her,
Mrs. Bates being somewhat out Of health.
About 10 O'Clock this forenoon Mrs.
Bates sent Mrs. Green to a neighbor's
on an errand. Left alone for few
minutes, the aged woman carried into
the wo0dshed, in the ell Of the house, q
coil of clothesline, attached one end of
1t to a a.cross-pieos of wood about six
feet from the floor, placed her head in
the moose and sank toward the floor.
Mrs. Green shortly returned, began
search for her companion and made the
horrible discovery in the wood shed.
Mrs. GREEN'S outcry brought neighbor,
Charles 4. Hurd, and the members of
his family to the scene. He cut the
moose, and finding that the spark of life
still remained, be and the others made
every possible effort Co resuscitate her,
pending, the arrival of Dr. S. j. Bassford,
who was summond by telephone.
AT $50 tonight Mrs. Bates was still
alive, but had not recovered conscious
ness, and there was practically no hops of
her recovery. sH M
The theory Of temporary insanity is
borne out by the fact that there are
traces of mental deranRement in the
family. One of her brothers. has been
In the insane hospital, and another end
ed his life several yenrs ago, In just the
way in which she sought death today.
Several times, whsn in periods of de-
spondenoy. she had threatened to take her
own life. She was about 70 years old.

Tannery of Frank A. Carey in Brewe
Burned Flat.

Bangor May 1.-Fire tonight burned
practically fiat the tannery owned by
Frank A. Carey in Brewer, making a
total loss of about $40. 600, on which there
is only S13, 600 insurance. The building
was about thirty years old but the ma
chinery was all practically new and there
was over s25, 600 worth of stock that wa
burned or badly damaged. About thirty
men are thrown out of employment by
the fire. Help was called from Bango
but the fire could not be checked. Spon-
taneous com bustion is supposed to have
been the cause though there is some sus.
picfon that it was incendiary. Mr.. Carey
has not decided yet whether he will re-
build or not. The tannery was one OF
tie finest of the kind in New England.
