THE WAGES OF SIN.
A Eawyer Committed Suicide Be.
cause Of UnIucky Speculation.

At Jacksonville, Fla, Charles S. Nc
Coy, prominent attorney, with Off.
ces in the Atwood building, Chicago,
committed suicide Friday morning by
cutting his throat with razor in a
bath tub at a hotel. Mccoy, it is said,
in the last few days had lost $4,000
by speculating in stocks on Wall
street, through local firm.
Mr.. Mccoy was in Jacksonville look
ing after a suit Of John L. Davis
against the Seminole Hard Rock PhoS-
phate company.
To Judge G. H. Alien, who was as.
sociated with him in the case, he left
letter saying:
During these months the demon OF
speculation has had me in it's grip and
I am as powerless to resist it as any
drunkard his dram or gambler his
game. The course l am taking is, all
considered, the wise one. Please do
what is needful. Communicate with
Mrs. Mccoy, GIG Longwood, Chi
cago."
On the dresser in the room at the
hotel were found several letters, to-
gether with the following that he had
