The unusually great number of sui.
cides committed in this city during
the past few months has attracted
the attention Of the authorities and
movement is under way. to enact
such laws as will make at least one
method of self.destruction more diff.
cult to accomplish. Statistics show
that during the year 1908 no less than
SS1 persons committed suicide with
carbolic acid; next in number came
l5S who ended their lives by shooting
themselves; 1S1 died by asphyxiation:
81 by hanging; As by cutting their
throats; 10 by drowning; 7 each by
paris green and morphine. There
seems to be kind of fascination in
caroollc acid as a means of self.de.
struction and even the most narrowing
reports in the papers about the az
onies suffered by persons who had
selected the carbolic acid route to the
great beyond, do not seem to have
any deterring effect. The princinal
reason for the preference which is
given carbolic acid, consists undoubt.
edly in the fact, that the poison is
cheaply and easily secured. Anv
chiid can go to almost any drugstore
and obtain enough carbolic acid n
