WOULD-BE SUICIDE BELIEVED. TO
HAVE DIED FROM HEART FAILURE

After making four unsuccessful at
tempts within a month to kill him
self, Louis Nicholson, a laborer, of
2417 South G street, last night
walked into a room where his wife
and four children were sitting, an
nounced that he had drunk carbolic
acid, and then dropped to the floor
and died within 10 minutes. Inc
members of his family made hope
less effort to revive the dying man
by giving him salt and water, and
lost no time in summoning a physi-
clan, but the latter arrived too late
Nicholson showed none of the
symptoms of a person who had taken
the fiery acid. He died without a
struggle and his throat and mouth
are not parrhed and burned as they
would naturally be had the man
drunk eaFbolic acid. These facts
have led the coroner to believe that
Nicholson died from heart failure
probably brought on by fright occa-
stoned by his determination to com
init suicide. He had been a sufferer
from heaEt disease for some time,

JUDGE HUSTON RULES THAT
BALDIE'S BUSINESS IS ILI.E-
GAL AND CANNOT BE RECoG-
NIZED IN COURT.

tilted to the causes Of action named

eriy tied horse after she had been

she didn't need any and kicked her
and threatened to kill her. On a
subsequent occasion he approached
her with a razor, threatening her

tify TO Mrs. Baldle's condition after
she had been beaten He said she
came to him for treatment two or

not Justify the extension of our lines
in any direction. However, / hope

and this trouble was responsible for
his repeated attempts to end his life.
Yesterday he made all prepara-
tions to terminate his existence He
resigned his position with the st.
Paul & Tacoma Lumber company,
purchased a bottle of carbolic acid
on his way home, and was all ready
to take the fatal dose, when it Is be-
lieved his heart action stopped and
he collapsed.
To determine the cause of the
mans death, Deputy Coroner Mellin-
ger will hold an autopsy on the body
tonight. DR.. Royal a. Cove, who was
called to the Nicholson home, made
no examination Of the dead mans
body, and he conld not say today
whether or not Nicholson died from
the effect of carboIic acid poisoning
Nicholson left Wife and four
children in poor circumstances. Ev-

NOT FIT FOR PUBLIC'S EARS

property, Mrs. Baldie mentioned two
houses, 1913 and 1920 South q
street, an automobile, slot machines
and a mummified Indian eight feet
tall. In this connection she stated
that Baldie had told her that he
owned all the slot machines himself
and that he had fence around the
town and no one else could get In
the business.
The testimony brought out the fact
that the complainant was only 10
years of age when she married
Baldie. Other testimony was giveA
which was unfit for publication.
When the court took up the Baldis
case this afternoon, Martin, a part
ner with Baldie In the slot machine
business, was put on the witness
stand. All efforts on the part Of the
plaintiffs attorneys to get at the re-
ceipts from the machines were oh-
jected to by defendants counsel and
sustained By the court, Judge Huston
holding that, as Baldie's business was
Illegal and unlawful, the court could
not become party to the inquiry
into the methods on which II was
conducted.

ing for sanction to call strike. A
mass meeting OF the strikers was
held this morning in a hall near the

hopes of the strikers by the state
men that the strike situation is
entirely to their liking.
The packers, II developed this
morning, have made arrangements

forts to keep their steam plants go

time, and will be glad to discuss
the matter. Yours truly,
JAS. ]. HILL"
This letter takes on the form OF
AN agreement to a conference.
1t should be stated in this connec-
tion that the following clause ap-
peared in a letter sent to Mr.. Hill by
the editor of The Times, accompany
ing the collective letter of the ship
pers:
"The people of Tacoma would like
to have you come and see them and
talk this matter over. If you will
agree to come, we will provide yov
with one of the largest and most at
tentive audiences that you ever ad-
dressed, and in our best quarters, the

matter with James J. Hill. He is
willing to talk it over, and that is

PACKERS ANNOUNCE THAT
NEGOTIATIONS ARE ENDED

CHICAGO, July 26.-The packers
have issued statement to the pub
lie in which they declare that all
negotiations with the striking butch
ers and craftsmen who are out on
sympathetic strike are closed and
that under no circumstances will
they be reopened
Strikers Are Aggressive.
Following the packers definite ul-
timatum, the striking butchers threw
out their picket lines, covered every
point about the district and began to
use tactics hitherto not employed.
The packers announcement had the
effect of further irritating the strik-
ers, who at once abandoned all hope
of a peaceabie settlement and prac-
tically declared war.
Serious Violence Feared.
At the Laurel street entrance of
the stockyards the pickets stopped
three wagons destined for the Ar
mour companyand turned them back
The teamsters drove to their head
quarters, but made no complaint.
President Golden Immediately pro-
tested to the butchers officials.

the first step towards doing some
thing. If there was no chance for
anything being done, Mr.. Hill would
not want to take the time and trou-
BILE to discuss.
The Times proposes that, If possi-
BILE, Mr.. Hill shall be brought to Ia
coma to make an address.
He frequently takes to the public
platform to address shippers, farm
ers and citizens Of the Northwest,
and it is quite probable that an ar
rangement can be made for him to
talk of his railroad to the people of
Tacoma.
A Golden Opportunity.
Good business instinct demands
that this opportunity should not be
allowed to go by. Even if Mr.. Hill
cannot build the Great Northern to
Tacoma this year, he might agree To
do so very soon. and that would be
a point gained.
