YOUNG WOMAN
SHOOTS HERSELF.
Lizzie Carlson, a Domestic, Ends
Her Own Life,
DESP0NDENTOyER SICKNESS
Suffered Intensely from Acute stomach
and kidney Trouble-iiad starved
For Two Ueeks.

Miss Lizzie Carlson domestic em-
ployed in the home of Mr.. and Mrs g.
q. MARYLAND, on First s0ulh ana
Twelfth East street. shot and Killed
herself last night having been driven
frantic by physical suffering While
the tragedy occurred about $3.50 o'clock
last night. II was not discovered until
this moralng The family had gone to
the Theater and LEFT the little boy home
in charge oil Miss Carlson. About y
oclQlA sac went 70 her room and lit
lie later the nelghDors heard Two pls
tol shots apparently emanaung nom
the MarkaGd home. While not alarmed
in the least some OF them went 70 the
house and ON seeing everything quiet
about the promises they returned to
their homes with the feeling That moth
ing Unusual had transpired. This
morning when Miss CarlsOn's room
was entered she was found lying on the
bed with a pistol tightly gripped in her
right hand, which lay across her breast,
and save a CHASTITY wound over her
right temple Il would have been
thought she was asleep The doctor
and coroner were summoned and an
examination developed the fact THAI she
had been dead several hours and had
shot herself twice, The first bullet took
effect IN her left side and passed out
without INJECTING a serious wound. The
second bullet entered her head above
the right temple. The FIRST bullet

through her body.
Save for the condition Of the occupant
and the hole in the wall the room APP
peafed as usual. Miss Carlson had dis
robed and her clothes were lying IN a
chair. but everything else In the.room
was arranged in order
This sad event is deeply regretted By
All OF her friends who pronounce her Ia
have been q most excellent girl. She
was employed IN the household Of Mr..
Frank h. Stephens for several months
and be freely admits that the family
never had finer girl in his employ as
domestic
The cause that drove her 10 her mad
act was no doubt an acute stomach ana
kidney trouble from which she had
been suffering at intervals for over
year. For the last two weeks she
had been unable 70 retain any food
whatever on her stomach and at times
she fell TO the floor In paroxysms OF
pain. She was an orphan and the
MARYLAND family was exceedingly kind
to her having DR., Kerr attend her dur
ing all the time OF her sickness. Her
mind must have become sorely derang-
ed by starvation and pain and spell
Of mad despair ended her life. Her
friends all speak In the highest terms
OF her character as do also those In
whose households she had lived, Miss
Carlson was obout twenty-five years of
age and has brother and a married
sister living in this city The remains
are at Evans undertaking parlors and
arrangements for the funeral are be-
inc made

Visitors to the Sanitarium today can
see the damage that was done yester-

along the roof Of the bathing establish

prevalent idea the Turkish baths are

days session Of the American Bankers
association convention was devoted TO
a continuation Of the discussion Of prac-
teal banking questions, p c, kauf-
man of Tacoma. Washington, spoke on
the Financial and Commercial Future
Of the Pacific Coast"
Mr.. Walter d, Coles, Of ST. Louis,
spoke on THE Federal Bankrup Law"
saying In part:
THE present bankrupt law unques-
lionably embodies many Of the essen
tial provisions necessary TO sound and
efficient insolvency system, II would be
far better, however. to consider 1t as
free from defects.
A bill reported fayorably to Congress
at the last session, he said, would, II
enacted give relief against the present
unjust provisions OF the act concerning
the surrender OF partial payments and
would also throw additional safeguards
around the granting OF discharges. This
bill would be pressed for consideration
at the comming session Of Congress.
james Eckels, of Chicago, former
comptroller of the currency, spoke on
Assets Currency He said he had
read the papers delivered by A. u.
Stlckeny and Mr. Gage yesterday, Both
were thoughtful in suggestion and may
well be considered by the association.
He agreed with Secy, Gage that the
financial system had not reached that
point of development where a people of
so much progress. so much energy and
force as the people OF the United States
have a right to expect that it should,
lie would like to see legal tenders Of
the government retired as there Ia al
ways possibility Of their Reissue in
a form that will be detrimental TO the
country. He would like to see the
adjustment Of the sub-treasury of the
country. IL stands as menace TO the
trade and commerce OF the country be-
cause II locks up the money, The sub
treasury should be conducted as Is the
business OF private individual or large
corporation. He would restrict revenue
where the credit OF the country could
be maintained. He believed In great
banks and n branch system OF banks.
I'VE have an administration that COM
mands the confidence Of the people and
admiration Of the world and there Is
no reason why we might not well dis
cuss with frankucss every public ques-
ton"
At the conclusion of Mr.. Eckels'
speech the list OF officers as reported
by the nominations committee was
elected as follows
President, Myron r. Herrlck, Cleye-

The rapid decline In the values OF
mining stocks quoted on the exchange
yesterday caused much speculation
among many persons as to whether the
banks, which had accepted minins
stocks as collateral for loans, had
ceased to do so. There were also many
who wondered what per cent of the
values OF certain mining stocks could
be borrowed upon them from the banks
The. principal bankers who have ac-
oeptod mining stocks as collateral were
seen today and, generally, said that
they. were making loans as usual up
on that class " securities. However"
said one prominent banker, 1--WE never
nave made loans Of amounts anywhere
near as laree as the value OF the col.
lateral given and always, I'm loanng
our customers have received more on
the same collateral than persons we
did not know"

THE big FALL IN MINING STOCKS
The Margin That Allowed by Banks Which Loan Money on
That Class OF Securities Depends on the Nan
Getting the Loan.

Cashier Barnett Of Mccormick & Co.
said today: Where we have loaned
money ON mining stocks We have gen.
orally asked for a so per cent margin
on non-diyldend paying securities. We
intend TO take care Of our customers
and, OF course, sometimes accept min
Ing stocks as security. stock brokers
themselves can take better care OF per-
sons desiring loans on that class OF
collateral than we can. because .thes
don't require such large marglu,
Cashier Cheeseman said that walker
Bros. do not make a practice OF takins
as collateral local mining stocks Dul
that the loans, when 80 made, were on
an average basis Of about S5 per cent
or 40 per cent
President Knox said that the Bank
OF the Republic has loaned and VIII
loan money on mining stocks, but that
on seldom occasions has the amount
loaned ever been over so per cent
Of the value of the securities.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The strange uncertainty Of everything
In the theatrical business was again
well illustrated last night. About a
year ago THE Belle of New York.
came to Salt Lake for three nights
engagement, but the total receipts did
not approach what those Of last nights
single performance OF the same work
viii amount TO. The house was
packed as II has not been for
many night, and the man
ager, who lett Salt Lake before
feeling very glum over the story told
by the box office, simply rubbed his
eyes In Amusement last night when he
saw every inch of staEding space occu-
pied
THE Belle Of New York" contains al
most exactly the same cast as before,
but under the infection Of a damned
audience In the best Of numors, the
piece seemed TO take on new life and IL
went with vastly more signs OF favor
than on its original production. II Is,
In fact, a conglomeration of the excel
lent, the very good, the indifferent, and
the very bad. Few things could be
more charming than the Salvation
Army Girl of Miss Dodge and she was
deservedly applauded to the echo, OF
almost equal merit was the singing, OF
Mr.. DEACON, whose song "She is the
Belle Of New York" was the daintiest
piece of vocalization during the night.
II is a pity he does not tone down his
acting TO match his singing, Aside
from these two. the musical attain
ments Of the company are limited.
Mr. Connolly, who heads the east, is
mechanically funny, and the Dutch
man and the Portuguese twins are all
wood and a cord wide. The chorus was
large, active, and well dressed but did
not send forth nearly the volume OF
sound that might have been expected
from It's numbers.
Another rush for seats attended the
opening OF the wedding Day" sale at

performances In this city will occur
