MANS HIGH COLLAR FATAL.
He Is stransled While Sitting in
Chair at Hotel.

Philadelphia. Pa, Oct. 24-Found
dead sitting in a chair, it developed
that Alexander Acorn of 23O North
Ninth street choked to death by hang
ing his head over the sharp edge Of his
own high collar. The case is a peculiar
one and none like it has been reported
in long time. tho the records show
that man died from similar cause
in Lombard street, near Third, five
years ago.
Alcorn, 1t appears from testimony
given at the inquest, put on a celluloid
collar and commented on its being too
tight when talking to the night clerk
in the Ninth street lodging house whers
he died. After visiting with friends he
came in and sat down In chair. where
he was later found dead with his head
hanging on his breast. The body was
sent to the morgue.
In making an autopsy the coroner's
physician found dark ring around
Alcorn's neck, and his investiga ton
showed that the man had choked on his
collar. The man was weak and the
weight of his head over the sharp col
lar was sufficient to cause strangula-
ton. So far as is known Alcorn had
no relatives.
