SAD SUICIDE OF EMINENT
CONGRESSMAN FROM
Philadelphia, Robert Adams, Prominent in
Affairs Of National House, Aged 81 Years.
Financial Embarrassment Was Cause.

Washington, June 1.-Congressman
Robert Adams, of Pennsylvania, shot
himself this morning. He is in seri-
GUS condition. 1t was Adams who re-
ported, conducted through the house,
and had charge of in the conference
with the senate, the Cuban resolu-
tions. He drafted, introduced, report
ed and passed through the house in
one hour, the declaration of war
against Spain.
The shooting occurred in one of the
chambers of the Metropolitan club,
where Adams was stopping. He was
found unconscious at o'clock this
morning, sitting upright in an arm
chair. The pistol was lying on the
floor, He had shot himself in the
mouth. 1t is believed that Adams
committed the deed between 6 and I
o'clock this morning. 1t is not eX-
pected that he viii recover.
CHASTITY Feature of Deed.
Adams died at the hospital at 1880.
A ghastly feature of the deed was
the fact that after shooting himself,
Adams proceeded out into the hall
and to the bath room, where he wash
ed himself, and then returned to his
room The walls OF the bath room
were spattered with blood. In his
room he left a note addressed 10 the
bell man reading:
Notify H. G. Clement, No. 1926 l.
street and also Francis p. Adams, No.
1917 Wallace street. Left money for
the breakfast bill. You can divide
things in the closet
The Metropolitan club recalled to-
day that yesterday morning Adams
did not act naturally and appeared
under some mental strain. He seemed
himself again last night, and there
was nothing to indicate the contem-
plated suicide
Adams was one of the most popular
members of congress and held high
positions on committees. He was also
prominent socially in the city was
close to the president and at the be-
ginning of the session introduced ana
championed the whipping post Dill,

placed at the head and footboards OF
his grave.
The posting of these placards caus.
ed a mild sensation, and they were
torn away.
The politica! situation here is as
animated as ever. Both factions are
at swords points, and from the tur.
moil is likely to break forth At almost
any time, the most fatal KIND Of a
war, in which physical forces may
play a part. Some of the more peace
full ones fear the result.

NOW BELIEVED THAT TWO

yesterday, is said to be an English
man, and gives his name as Rober
Hamilton. He was pointed out In
the streets to the Spanish police by
English detectives, who came here
to attend the wedding festivities. His
arrest caused great excitement, and
the soldiers had to assist the police
to prevent the people from assault

He is of good appearance, and
somewhat resembles the man the po
