D. TRUITT
Commits Suicide at His Home in
Muncie.

Jerre D. Truitt, one Of the best
known men in the vicinity of Muncie,
and quite well known here, committed
suicide yesterday by shooting himself
through the heart, shot gun being
used.
Several years ago Mrs. Truitt be
came mentally deranged and was re-
moved to Easthaven for treatment.
This weighed heavily on the mind
of the devoted husband, and, when
word was received later that the
wife had been pronounced incurable,
it is believed he may have become de-
spondent.
Mr.. Truitt, for many years, had
been an ardent sportsman, and was
one of the best shots in his section.
The gun with which he killed himself
is that used by him for years in hunt
ing ,and had been kept in his Of
fee.
The deceased was about 45 years
of age. He was regarded as a good
business man. His farm lying east
of the city of Muncie near the coun-
ty infrmary, is one of the best in
that county and until his removal
to Muncie several years ago, was
used as a family residence.
The deceased was the youngest of
three sons of the late Milton Truitt.
Two brothers, John, a prosperous
farmer, residing near Muncie, and
James a conductor on the NJ, K. &
T. railroad, with headquarters at
Dennison, Texas, and son, Mahon,
are the only surviving relatives be-
sides the wife.

FINAL DIVIDEND
THE TWO THOUSAND STOCK
HOLDERS OF THE CHICAGO
FAIR
RECElvED465 PER CENT
On Their Stock, Which is the Last
Vestige of the 1898 Ex-
position.


Chicago, March 3.-The accounts
of the Worlds Columbian Exposition
retained by the company to meet any
payment of final dividend of 4.65
per cent. to all of the 1000 stock
holders. This payment, with divi-
dend of 10 per cent, which was paid
in 1894, makes a total Of 14.65 per
cent. in dividends paid on the capi-
tai stock. Many of the stockholders
have expressed their satisfaction at
the closing of the business in this
way, as it was first thought that less
than 10 per cent. dividends would be
paid. Several suits against the COM
pany are still pending. For this rea-
son small sum of money has been
retained by the company omeet any
possible claim against it. This sum
is so small, however, that no further
dividend will be paid should it not be
paid out on claims.
cit has been decided by officers
that any surplus which may remain
after the company's Indebtedness has
been paid, will be donated to some
public work. said Secretary II. o.
Edmonds.
The entire amount disbursed In the
final dividend today was $256,000.
About two thousand remains in the
hands of the treasurer to meet any
claims which may be brought against
the company This amount will be
about one cent on each share and all
claim for this sum of money has been
relinquished by the stockholders in
signing a blank voucher for the final
dividend.
All told, the local organization
spent $26,0OO,O00 and the national
government and the different States
81, 100000, the total amount spent on
the Chicago worlds fair being $685.
