John p. Fnrde. Of jamaica Plains. near
Boston. Mass. a fine-looking. gray-haired
man n his early fitdes. was found dead
on the bed In his room at the fremont

and Main street. yesterday at noon. The
hands were peacefully folded across the
dead mans breast. and he had evidently
died without struggle There was moth

that II was a case OF suicide, but there
is every reason 10 believe that Forde end
ed what was once promising career by
morphine or some other opiase. taken with
suicidal intent. An autopsy will be held
today TO determine the cause OF death
Forde was a rather tall. handsome man,
with curling gray hair and military
looking gray nustache. He claimed TO
have been at one time writer upon sew
eral of the .arge Boston newspapers
When he came TO the fremont hotel on
May Is he claimed to be in Seattle as a
special correspondent of the Boston Her
aid and the Boston Evening telegraph
His story is corroborated by apparently
responsible men, who knew him in the
East. and who are now at the hotel on
their way TO Alaska Forde had very
little money when he arrived In Seattle
ager OF the hotel. NJ. Nj. Ciothier. from a
friend In Boston. and for severa. days he
had been penniiess. Moreover. he drank
heavily. almost from the day he arrived
in the city. The result was that he was
subject to constantly occurring attacks
Of the blues and in one OF them he
in all probability ended his life.
A few days ago Mr.. Clothier told Forde
VINO had been asking for small loans. that
ne could have no more money for drink.
but could always be certain Of a bed ana
board. Sunday Forde said nothing. but
appeared to feel the rebuff keealy. On
Sunday night he retired at 10 o clock The
appearance OF the body, when a chamber
maid opened the unlocked door of his
room yesterday. Indicated that death had
taken place soon after that hour Mr.
Clo:hier believes that the poison was taken
by Forde before going to bed.
The body was removed 70 Butterworth's
undertaking parlors. There were but few
papers in the clothing. One was an af-
fectonate letter from the wife of the un-
fortunate man, and another a letter show
ing that he had been a member OF much
prominence in the A. o. U. w. His rela-
tives have been notified by wire OF his
death.
1t is stated by acquaintance of Forde
that the latter's daughter is now employ
ed on the Evening Telegraph. OF Boston.
They say, also. that Forde was once
successful insurance man in Massachus-
etts. and quite wealthy but lost his money
through his intemperaDce.

further evidence of the do-nothing pol
icy of Spain in this war comes to hand in
the announcement that the torpedo gun
beat Temerario, that terrifying des.ructor
which was such bugaboo to many people
while the battle ship Oregon and the gum
boat Marietta were on their way up the
coast of South America, has virtually taken
to the woods. She is now snugly reposing
at st. Nicholas, on the river Parana, two
hundred miles from the Atlantic ocean.
Headed for Paraguay, which, being an in
land state, is a reasonably safe refuge for
a stray Spanish warship, whose boilers are
disabled and whose crew is more than half
missing. With one of the destroyers thus
tucked away out of harms reach in the
forests of South America, another torpedo
boat destroyer annihiated in the Mediter-
ranean by an explosion and entire fleet
wiped out of existence at Manila, it be-
hooves Spain to do something quickly with
her remaining vessels before they are all
removed from sight by the hand of fate or
Uncle Sam.

rothng quite like it will ever happen again.
TIE affair at Cardenas is notable only in
the fact that it resulted in the first deaths
of the the American side. The
blockading ships have taken many grave
risks in running close to shore. especially
the smaller craft. with their thin huIls and
their exposure to heavy guns. The Spanish
guns have hitherto shown such wretched
lack of skin that the American commanders
have been tempted to take more chances
tLan would be prudent if they were engaged
against u foe of ability. The battle of Ma
Mia seems, too. to have inspired the Amer
lean officers and men to more daring enter
prises, and SO it is not at all surprising that
the delayed casualty has come at last 1t
is only to be hoped that these lives were not
uselessly sacrificed, but that their loss has
been more than compensated for by a seri-
Gus injury to the Spanish coast defense sys-
tenn. CardenGs is not wholly desirable
point for landing purposes. 1t lies far
within desp harbor, formed by the jutting
forth of a long peninsula on the west and a
marked curve of the coast on the east. The
surrounding region, for many miles about,
Is marshy, of that type which breeds pesti-
lence, and would form a most undesirable
base of operations for American troops.
Mafanzas, on the contrary, which offers
many special advantages, is built on higher
land, the bluffs on the west side of the har-
Dor rising to a. considerable height But
Cardenas is sufficiently near Havana to
warrant its Icing closely watched to pre-
vent the ingress of provision ships, and the
American forces were doubtless thus en-
gagged when the engagement occurred that
cost the first lives of the campaign.
