YOUNG GIRL ATTEMPTS
TO CLOAK HER SUICIDE
Minnie Burns Takes Poison
for -Four Days.
FINALLY OVERCOME BY PAIN
Forced to Tell Friends of Her Attempt
When Too Late to Save
Her Life.

Tortured for four days by poison in
her attempt to kill herself. Minnie
Burns. twenty-One years old. found re-
lief she sought last night. when she
died in the Emergency Hospital from
arsenic poison.
Seldom has more remarkable or
painful method of self-destruction been
adopted in the police history of Wash
lnSton- For four days the young woman
took rat poison. increasing the amount
each day. until her viii was broken by
suffering. and last night she was com
PEELED by the agony TO tell her sister-in-
law. Mrs. 3. G. Baker. Of 2927 Portner
Place. what she had done
All Remedies Fail.
DR. Wallace Johnson was summoned.
and used all known remedies. but the ar
senic had found its way into the system
so thoroughly that it could be counter
acted by no antidote The physicians
sent call for the Emergency ambulance
and had her carried 20 that hospital.
where the entire staff worked despor-
ately in an effort to save the young life
The carefully laid plans of Miss Burns
had been only too successful. and she
died this morning at 2:45 o'clock.
Absolutely no reason for the suicide
can be offered by the family. So far az
known. the girl had no love affair. Miss
Burns had been in bad health for some
time, and beyond the possibility that the
illness had preyed upon her mind far
more than was thought, there is not
even conjecture about the reason for
the act.
In the four days in which her system
was wracked by the poison she gave no
sign of her torture She had deter
mined 10 take the arsenic compound in
such manner that her death would
appear TO have been due to natural
causes. II was only when her forti-
tude was overcome by pain beyond HUI
man endurance that she Succumbed
Inc VIII power of the young woman in
carrying out her desperate resolve may
be appreciated when il is said that
when she did give way she was so near
death she could not speak more than a
few disconnected words
Her mind distracted by the pain, she
lost her reserve and told Mr.. and Mrs
Taylor what she had done and where
the box Of rat poison was TO be found
Nothing further could be learned from
her.

COMMISSIONERS AUTHORITY
Railway Committee Undecided as to
Whether Remedy Can Lawfully
Be Demanded.

Members of the special railway COM
mittee of the Business Mems Associa-
ton are now wrestling with the prob
lem as to whether the District Com
missioners have authority to demand
better street car service. In a recent
opinion of the Corpoi alton Counsel the
municipal authorities are helpless to
act but this decision is not taken as
final by the business men.
The charter of the companies provide
that cars shall be run ''as often as the
public convenience may require. and ac-
cording to schedule to be flied with
the District Commissioners. and to be
approved by them The question to be
solved now is whether the Commits
sioners can demand an improved sched-
ulc for the suburban lines.
May Appeal to Congress.
The committee will confer shortly
with the Commissioners, and II nothing
can be done by them to deal with the
traction companies. bill will be intro
duced in Congress appealing for RENE
dial legislation.
Communications have been received
by the Business Mems Association from
many sources. commencing the present
crusade for better service. Among the
letters is one from Evan II. Tucker,
president Of the Northeast Citizens As
ISOLATION, in which he says:
Test of Credulity.
ut is quite a test Of the credulity of
a committee of sensible business men
when even General Harries tells them
the citizens of this city would prefer
to ride in open cars in zero weather
as wei as during rain nd snowstOrms- -
Denial is made Of General Harries
statement that fully one-half of the
Northeast citizens were in favor Of open
cars
A letter from Louis Leyerett Hooper,
headmaster OF the Washington School
for Boys, sets forth that the service of
the Tenleytown line is the cause Of
great complaint. The cars run on a
thirty minute schedule. and are always
crowded.
At it's meeting yesterday afternoon,
the committee discussed plans of con
Quoting the campaign, and adjourned
until tomorrow afternoon.

ATTRIBUTES DIFFICULTY
TO WORKOUT CLERKS"

II rather expected there would be q
change said a clerk in the Interior De-

make il the other way. and that they
would let US go 10 work at $3.50 a. m.
and get through at the same old hour.
rather than finish half an hour later and
loose our trains 70 the suburbs.
The trouble is that the work is lag,
gine because OF the old WORKOUT clerks
in the Offices. not because the usual run
OF clerks does not work long enough
