SUICIDE BY AGREEMENT.
Letter Found In Dead Mans Pocket
Points to Existence of a
Suicide Club.

Chicago, June "A letter found in
the possession of L. Wachman,
travelling salesman, who committed
suicide in North Clark street saloon
early yesterday, leads to the belief
that he was a member of New York
suicide club. From passages in the
letter it is thought another member
of the club committed suicide in New
York last week.
Wachman fell dead while being
served with a glass of beer. Physi-
clans who examined the body de-
clared it was a case of poisoning. A
bottle of poison bearing the name of
drug store in a small town in Cali
fornia was found in Wachman's
pocket.
The letter which leads to the theory
that the suicide was premeditate.
affair was from 7. Wulff, of New
York, dated May rs. The mfssive was
written in German, and was poorly
spelled. From such parts of it, how
ever. as could be understood, il was
gathered that Wulff and Wachman
were members of an organization the
members of which pledged them
selves to end their lives. One of the
passages read:
"Will commit suicide at once, and
am sorry that we can not be to-
gether and end it. / had thought
that we could do this best together"
jWulff also says that he has left
note under the door of mo. 2o2 -
street" The name of the
street is not given. but it is believed
by the police authorities that the
place mentioned may be the head
quarters of the suicide club. The
New York authorities have been
asked to investigate the matter.
