DID BROWN SUICIDE?
Some Officers Endeavoring to Answer the
Question in the Affirmative.

Failing In the effort to clear up the
mystery OF the killing of Lawrence p.
Brown. the storekeeper. some of the
officers have concluded that 1t Is a case
of self-destructlon. The principal reas-
on advanced In support of this theory
is that Brown probably grew despon-
dent over the loss of IA considerable
amount of money while in the East, by
coming In contact with some green
goods men.
1t may be that he lost money in the
manner indicated, but he certainly did
not appear Respondent on his return
on the contrary, he was cheerful and
was seen to have large amount of
gold and silver in his opssession the
day preceding his tragic death on
that day, too, he paid bills. purchased
goods and went about his business with
his usual care and precision.
When the store was entered by the
officers after the shooting. it was
found that the glass panel above the
catch lock had been broken from the
outside in such manner to easily ad-
nit of the opening of the door and that
the door was open; that the pockets OF
the deceased were riiied and turned in
eide out. that the pocket book which
he had customarily used and which he
had the day before, was missing; that
n bullet had been fired toward the outer
door and that II had lodged In the
panel near the only place of exit; that
when found, Browns pistol lay at his
feet entirely out of reach OF his hands
that there were no powder burns upon
his breast where the bullet entered,
which. according to the testimony of
DR.. Anderson, would almost of necessi-
ty be the case If he had killed himself
All OF these circumstances together
with the fact that some one was dis
tinctly heard prowling about the place
at l o'clock at night: that man was
seen skulking behind the house at q
o'clock and that several persons posi-
lively declare that rig was driven
rapidly away from the front of the
store within ten seconds after the
shooting and that one person saw two
men drive away at that time. are taken
