FOUND HANGING IN CELLAR
Suicide of Fred L, Closing at
BIaCkfOOtr Some IN
genuity Required,
Especial TO The Herald.1

BlackfOOt, Ida, March 22-Fred L.
Glessing committed suicide at an earlv
hour this morning by hanging himself
in the cellar of his brother. A r. GIess-
ing. who is the local manager of the
Bell Telephone. The body was found
at O'Clock this morning, and presented
a most CHASTITY and hOrrifying spectacle
to the brother of the deceased, who
made the discovery. The low ceiling
Of the cellar, scarcely high enough to
admit one standing erect, presented
scant opportunity for this mode of ac-
comprising his end. yet with remark
able ingenuity the young man had pre-
pared the moose and succeeded by
kneeIing on a box and trussing his feet
up behind by means of a rope, which
was tied to each foot and passed over
the shoulders, after which he kicked
the box out from under his knees.
The deceased was L years of age and
a graduate of FL Paso. H.. High school.
He had been complaining Of falling
health and mentality for some time
past. Advertising literature of quack
doctors had brought him to the belief
that he possessed the symptoms OF
a striking illustration of the power OF
mental suggestion Aside from this no
cause is known for his act.
A number of cards found on his body
giving the addresses of relatives indi-
Gates that the act was looked forward
to. The following letter was also found
protruding from his pocket:
so that you will know that no one
else but myself is to blame, and that
an inquest will not be needed. I writs
this note saying that it was myself who
ended my life. and that no one else but
myself was the cause of my ending II.
l wish to add that were I to live. I
could never repay any of the members
of my family or any of my relatives,
especially my grandmother, my Aunt
Lou and my sister George, for all that
they have done for me"

He refused to accept the duty un-

Pathetic Scenes.
Recognition impossible.

The official stated that owing to the
horribly mutilated condition of the
dead it was impossible to recognize
them at that hour.
The Century mine employees were
about equally divided between Ameri-
cans and foreigners and a report was
current here that it was the belief of
those at the scene of the explosion that
most of the dead are foreigners, be-
cause they were in the habit of remain
ing longer in the mine than the Ameri-
can miners.

Getaway of the Beef Packers Stun
ming Blow to the Depart
ment of Justice.

Washington, March 22.-President
Roosevelt held an extended conference
with Attorney General Moody, Secre-
tary Taft and James Z. Garfield, COM
missioner of corporations, concerning
the adverse decision rendered in Chi
cago yesterday by Judge Humphreys
I'm the beef packers case. No details
of the conference were obtainable at
the White House, but it is certain that
Attorney General Moody proposes to
look carefully into the law bearing
upon the matter, with a view of as
certaining whether an appeal from the
decision of Judge Humphrey by the
government viii lie.
Packers Have Escaped.
The decision relieving the individual
officers of packers corporations from
prosecution will continue, of course,
but it was the desire of the govern
ment to place responsibility for viola
items of the law upon officials of the
corporations where they are found to
be guilty of such violations. In what
ever efforts may be made by the at
tornev general and other officials of
the department of justice to secure an
appeal from the decision Of Judge
Humphrey, TINS point VIII De kept 10
the front. 1t could not be decided at
the conference today whether an APP
neal from the decision would lie, but
that question viii be gone over very
carefully. and if. in the opinion of the
law officers Of the government, a foun-
dalton for an appeal can be made it
viii be taken.
Affects Future Prosecutions.
Attorney General Moody declined to
discuss the merits of Judge Hum
phrey's decision. 1t was, he said. of
great Importance. not only as affecting
the particular case, but as laying down
a principle which, If sustained, must
have a very serious effect upon all fu-
tire prosecutions by the government
for violations of the antitrust and in
terstate commerce law. 1t is possible
the government has a right of appeal
under existing law, but i'm any event
a bill is now before congress which
provides q remedy in such cases. 1t
provides that I'm all criminal prOsecu-
lions the United States shall have the
same right of review by writ of error
that is given to the defendant, includ-
ing the right to a bill of exceptions. 1t
also provides that the act shall take
effect from and after its passage and
shall apply to all cases pending This
hiU. which has been favorably report
ed by the house judiciary committee.
embOdies the recommendations made
bv Attorney General Moody in his last
annual report to congress.

Senate Is Right.

As to the Statehood matter. he said it
would be far better craftsmanship to
fight the senate on some measure on

house wrong. Never had the country

up 100000 square miles more than any
body in the senate" he declared

scented a motion inStructing the con-
ferees to accept the senate amendment

The speaker sustained this point. after
Mr.. Williams had argued briefly
against it. He then took an appeal
from the decision of the chair. Mr.
Dalzell moved to lay the appeal on the
table. which motion was sustained on
a rising vote, 146 TO 81.
