AN UNKNOWN MAN
SHOOTS HIMSELF
WENT TO HOTEL AT AKRON AND
AFTER GOING TO HIS ROOM
FIRED A BULLET THROUGH HIS
HEAD.

Akron, May 31.-(Special)-A young
man about % years old got off of No. 3
Pan American train here today, and 60
ing direct to the hotel he informed the
proprietor that he wanted a room and
that he was in a terrible condition, re-
questing that a physician be telephoned
for at once.
He went to a room and In few min
utes a pistol shot was heard. On inves-
tlgation 1t was found that he had shot
himself through the head. placing the
pistol to his temple. The ball went
through his head.
He was searched, but nothing was
found to show who he was. He had in
his vest pocket railroad ticket OF Nor
folk and Western issue reading from
Marion, Va, to New Orleans. La, also
a pocket book with three dollars in
money.
On the bed beside him was a pint flask
about half full of whiskey and small
bottle of chloroform. He registered as
as could be made out, but the name on
the register was almost illegible.
He was we'll dressed and of good APP
pearance and on his arrival stated that
he had stopped off here to sober up.
A coroner has been sent for, but his
identity or his motive for the deed is SO
far a mystery.
The man is of medium heighth and
build and has black hair and blue eyes.

GENERAL STRIKE.
Textile Workers In Philadelphia to Go
Out Today.

Philadelphia, Pa, May 3.-The general
phia for reduction in working time from
90 to So hours week. will go into eff
feet officially tomorrow and the leaders
of the textile unions tonight claim that
fully 100000 persons will refuse to go to
work unless their demands are agreed to-.
Four additional firms agreed today to
give their employees the 55-hour week,
making total of Al firms who employ
about 1900 persons 1t is expected that
nearly all the dyers in the city will re-
fuse to go to work tomorrow. The dyers,
In addition to asking for a 55-hour week,
want an advance In wages from s12 to
s13 a week. II the dyers should continue
on strike for any length of time many
mills that are not affected by the strike
would be forced to close down because
of a scarcity of dyed materials.
The executive committee on the textile
trades issued a statement to the public
today giving the reasons for the strike.
The statement says that thirty-six trades
representing $4,000 persons asking for a
55-hour week, with a proportionate re-
duction In wages, and three trades re-
presenting 10000 workers ask for a short
er week with the same wages as paid at
present or a slight increase, averaging
10 per cent
The statement declares that women and
children are principally affected by the
long hours in the mills, and that shorter
hours will give them an opportunity to
improve health, increase the opportuni-
ties for education, give them time for en-
joying some Of life's pleasures, and also
enable them to get some benefit from
the issue of machinery. The statement
says the strike was forced on the workers
because the employers refused to meet
them to settle their differences.

FORCEFUL SERMON
TO UNIVERSITY BOYS
LARGE AUDIENCE LISTENS At.
TENTIvELY TO RIGHT REV. C,
M. BEckwITH IN CLARKE HALL
AT TUSCALOOSA YESTERDAY.

Tuscaloosa, May 31-(Speelal.) --one OF
tho largest crowds that ever assembled In
Clarke Hall, at the University of Ala
bama, gathered there this morning to
participate In the commencement exer-
eises Tho music was beautifully render
ed by the Episcopal choir, assisted by
members OF the various choirs In the
city. After scripture reading and prayer
| by Rev. s. D. McGiohon, rector Of Christs
church, the annual baecalaureate sermon
was preached in a splendid manner by
the Right Rev. Charles NJ. Beclswlth. D.
D., bishop of the diocese of alabama.
He took as his text What shall do
with Jesus" and urged the young men OF
the university to use their every moment
to the very best advantage to stand as
champions and battle for right, truth and
honor. He told them that college boys
life was but a period In which to manu-
facture character on which be compelled
to depend in the years that were to fol-
low. He painted for them the picture OF
Pilot at that awful period, the time when
he and he alone should decide that one
great question, what he should do with
Jesus. Had 1hot's first years been filled
with earnest, careful training he would
not have made that one great mistake.
Forming character, he stated, was the
building of stone by stone In the silent
workshop of this world--both in the morn
ing and the evening hour. He impressed
upon them that after college life was a
thing to be remembered of the past, that
the world would expect more from them
than 1t had ever done in the past and
that they must not disappoint, that they
should remember at all times that true
character meant honesty, truth, sincerity
and genuine courage
He told them that In the days and
years to come a question might come to
them from millions las did from the null
titudes to Pilot-"What will you do with
Jesus?") a question to be answered with
one breath.
The sermon was eneded in a most
pleasing manner with these words BE
thou faithful unto the end and l will give
to you a crown"

TO BE NEGOTIATED.
President Palma Talks of National
Coaling Station Project.

Havana, May 31-President Palma has
informed the representative of the As
ISOLATED Press that the national coaling
station leases will be definitely me-
gotiated next week.
He says the matter will not be delayed
because of the absence from Cuba of the
secretary of state, Zaldo, as Secretary of
the Treasurer Monies will act in Senior
Zaldo's place.
President Palma says the government
has been waiting to secure an approxi-
mate idea of the cost of securing from
private owners the land required for the
stations, and that such information is
now forthcoming, so the money consider
alton and other details necessary to for
mulate the terms of the lease will soon
be In the presidents hands.
1t is the presidents desire that the sem
ate when 1t ratifies the original naval
station agreement shall add to its pro-
visions a clause authorizing the president
to conclude the details thereafter with
out referring them to the senate.
This is probably what VIII be done.
The Isle Of Pines treaty has already
been drawn, and its conclusion, 1t is
said, will be quickly accomplished.
