CHEATSTHE GALLONS
EDWARD GOTTSCHALk COMMITS
SUICIDE IN HIS CELL IN The
JAIL At ST. PAUL.

st. Paul, July 20.-Edward Gott-
schalk, who confessed to numbering
his accomplice, Joseph Hartmann. in
the murder of Christian H. SCHMIDT
decker, a West Seventh street butcher,
the motive for the latter crime being
robbery. hanged himself in the county
jail about noon during the absence Of
the death watch at dinner. The con.
demned man used a strip Of cloth torn
from bedtick. ,.
That Gottschalk had carefully
planned to kill himself before the date
of his execution was evident from the
success of his effort. He seemingly
had the strands of his mattress plated
and formed into a moose, in readiness
for killing himself at the first oppor-
tunity. He tied the tmprovised rope
to the top bars of his cell, made a
moose in the lower end and, inserting
his neck, dropped nearly to his knees,
slowly strangling to death while his
body dangled on the floor.

DIE BY FIRE
NEGROES WHO WERE TRYING TO
STOP SPREAD OF FLAMES At
HUMBLE, TEX. PERISH.

Houston, Tex, July 25.-The fire in
The Humble oil fields, which started
Sunday night, is still burning fiercely,
but it remains confined to the tanks
Of the Texas company. While no
names are ascertainable, it is believed
that twelve persons lost their lives.
So far as can be learned these were
all negroes who were employed in try
ing to prevent the spread of the
flames.
Forty-three mules are known to
have persisted. The managers of the
Texas company state that the tanks
contained approximately 100000 bar
rels OF oil, which was valued at about
rs cents per barrel, and that none Of
the oil will be saved. In addition
they say that the big pumping plant
at the tanks was entirely destroyed.
