GERMAN COLONIES IN AMERICA.
THE STATE DEPARTMENT TAKES STEPS
TO ASCERTAIN WHETHER THE MON
ROE DOCTRINE IS MENACED.

Washington. May 14,-In view Of the signif-
cant references to the enforcement Of the Mon
roe Doctrine by Secretary Root, Senator Lodge
and other prominent men,, the State Department
has taken steps to secure data the subject.
The burden of these speeches has been the great
increase of the German colonies In South and
Central America. which have been regarded as
menacing the Monroe Doctrine. 1t also has been
asserted that these German colonies maintain
their home customs in the land deal almost
exclusively with Germany, use only the German
language, have almost autonomous governments
within the limits of American republics, and that
their colonies are. in fact, little Germanies
wherever located.
The State Department sent instructions TO
every American Minister and Consul In South
and Central America to inform the Department
fully all the points to which reference has
been made. OF course, Germany is not referred
to by name, for that might naturally give
umbrage to the German Government. The cir
cular applies to cOlOnists of all natiOnalities,
though it u.s. of course, expected that the Con-
suls in compiling their reports will differentiate
the colonsts.

AUGUSTUS SHACKLOCK A SUI
eide.
Drank Ten Cents Worth of Laudanum
and Lay Down TO Die in Cedar

Drank Ten Cents Worth of Laudanum
ana Lay Down TO Die in Cedar
Grove Cemetery.
Augustus ShaciSlock, a machinist rs
years old. boarding at No. 9OI County
street, committed suicide Yesterday
morning by taking laudanum.
Assistant Cemetery Keeper Walter
Goodson notified Police officer Ma
none about noon yesterday that a man
was sleeping under a tree in Cedar
Grove Cemetery and asked that he be
taken out. Malone found that the
sleeper was Augustus Shacklock. He
was unconscious, and an empty lauda-
mum bottle lay near him. He was
taken to the police station in n wagon.
and DIR. Gray q. Holiday endeavored
to revive life in him. The effort was
unavailing. and Shacklock breathed his
last at Ills O'Clock, half an hour after
he was brought from the cemetery.
The suicide bought ten cents worth
of laudanum at an uptown drug store
between and 10 O'Clock yesterday
morning. 1t is not known when he
drank 1t. Walter Clark, friend of
Shacklock's. came to the police station
a few minutes after the latter's death.
He said he learned that Shacklock had
bought laudanum. and fearing that he
might attempt suicide, tried to get the
drug away from him. Shacklock told
him he only got the laudanum as a
bluff" and had no intention of kill
ing himself He said he had thrown
the bottle away. Clark took the pre-
caution to search Shacklock's pockets
before he would let him go, but failed
to find the laudanum bottle. Tho only
rensor Clark could assign for the sui
eide was that Shacklocll for n week
past had been drinking heavily. Shack
locks brother gave the same reason
as the only one he knew Of
Shacklock's body remained at the
police station until o'clock, when an
inquest was held. The body was af-
forwards turned over to an under
taker.
