Col. Ray of Regular Army to Recruit
One in the South.

Col. Ray of Regular Army to Recruit
One in the South.
Colonel Patrick Henry Ray, one of the
best-known officers Of the regular army,
will leave Washington in a few days for
Georgia, where he goes to raise one of the
regiments Of United States volunteers au-
thorized by the special act of Congress re-
Gently passed. Three such regiments have
been authorized by President Mckinley,
and in the allotment of territory Colonel
Ray has been given Georgia. South Caro-
lima and Florida, and his work Of muster
ing in the men will begin at once.
This regiment will be one of those to be
formed under what has been termed the
immune act. There is no provision in
be immunes. but it is the idea of the army
authorities that men nearly acclimated
as possible shall be secured, and for that
reason the regiments are to be raised in
the south. The officers of the regiment
and Of the different companies are to be
selected by the President, as are those of
the regular army, but assurance Is given
those who raise companies that they are to
De appointed captains. 1t is Colonel Rays
idea to have his leutenants come, as far
as possible, from the regular army, SO as
to have from the first men qualified for
these positions and to insure proper drill
ing.
1t Is understood that Robert L. Long
street OF Georgia, son of the famous con-
federate general, now railroad commission
er. has been commissioned to raise a COM
pany for the regiment, and that Frank
Gordon, a son of General James B. Cor
don. also OF the confederacy, will be given
q like commission. 1t is believed that II
any regiment Of the United States yolun-
teers is given a chance for active duty it
Will be the one under Colonel Ray. He Is
very highly regarded by his superiors He
was an officer in the civil war and at its
conclusion went into the regular army.
Since then he has seen active service in
all the Indian campaigning. from British
America to Mexico. In 1884 he went to
Vienna on a special mission for the govern
ment. From 1881 to 1888 he was with an
expedition In the arctic seas
Colonel Ray has just now returned from
Alaska and British North America, where
he went last year as a special agent of tbe
United States. He wintered at Fort Yukon
and during his stay in Alaska footed II
l.loO miles. 1t took him from February %
70 April q to reach Washington from Fort
Yukon.

ton of Committing Suicide.

Policeman Quick Work

Charles F.. Riley, young man well
known in police circles, attempted suicide
about noon today by taking a big dose of
laudanum. Before swallowing the poison
he wrote note of explanation to be deliv-
cred to his mother. Then he told his
troubles to a policeman and the latter sent
him to the Emergency Hospital where Dr.
Juenemanns successful work relieved the
patient of the poison. His sweetheart had
gone back on him, he said in his letter be-
cause she had learned of his past. With
out her he saw no reason why he should
live.
Policeman Voc Of the first precinct was
standing at 7th street and Pennsylvania
avenue when Riley, who lives at lib N
street southeast, approached him and
asked:
''Will you do me q favor?"
81 will If / can, Riley" responded the Off
GER. who was acquainted with the appli-
cant.

mother"

be dead" read the officer, as he glanced
at the unsealed letter.
This assured him that Riley was in earn
est and he walked with him to the patrol
box to summon an ambulance. Riley be-
came drowsy and the officer, with the
sfstance of a citizen. kept him moving. In
this way he was kept awake until the hos
pital answered the call Then he was
taken in hurry to the hospital and put
under treatment.
Policeman Voc turned the letter over to
DR.. Fife, but when a Star reporter called
the doctor declared he did not have the
letter. He afterward admitted that he had
been given the letter, and later turned 1t
over to the police and it was sent to the
mother at her home on N street.
Letter to His Mother.
In the letter Riley says the young lady in
question learned of his past record. and re-
fused to have anything further to do with
him. He blanes his fate on bad company
during his earlier life. and says his act
should be warning to young men in gen.

had been trying to live right, he directs
that his funeral take place from the mis-
sion, and that Mr.. Haveu sing a solo,, II
