N.NORALESSUICIDES
ruff SUSPECT UF BOMB OUT.
RAGE IN MADRID.
.,.er Dramatic Chapter to Events
surrounding Royal Wedding-As-
s.ssin Kills Guard, and, Seeing
rscape impossible, Turned Gun on
Standardization Is Positive.

.,,icde Saturday night at Torrejon de
,rdos of Manuel Morales, the chief
n .,,snect of the bomb outrage against
Ting Alfonso and Queen Victoria, adds
anotber dramatic chapter to the events
surrounding the royal wedding.
Morales was recognized in the little
y towp of Torrejon de Ardos, midway be-
tween Madrid and Alcata. A guard
sought to detain him, but Morales,
drawing revolver, shot the guard
load Then he turned to fee, but a
number of the inhabitants of the town
we're upon lin, and, turning the re-
vnlyer upon himself, he sent a shot in
the region of his heart, expiring a few
minutes later. Senior Cuesta, proprietor
of the hotel from the balcony of which
Morales threw the bomb has viewed
the body and completely identified ii
as that of his recent guest.
It was o'clock Saturday evening
when Morales, disguised in the garb OF
working man, entered the station at
Torreion de Ardos. He asked a child
who was in charge of the office, the
time the next train would depart for
Barcelona He then sought food in a
nearby shop. His Catalonian accent
first attracted attention to him. 1t was
then noticed that, while his working
mans suit was entirely new and cor.
responded in texture to that usually
worn by person of his station in
life, his face and manners showed him
to be man of some distinction.
A private Waterman from a neigh.
boring estate CHANGED to be present
and he noticed the facial resemblance
of Morales to the descriptions given
out Of the man seen on the balcony
from which the bomb was thrown, par
tcularly the long thin and deeply
serious face and the closely cropped
mustache. He then observed that a
finger on the mans left hand, which
the stranger was trying to conceal
was badly hurt, and that there was
also a small fresh scar on his forehead
The stranger started out on a road
leading into the country, but the
Waterman intercepted him and de-
manded to know his identity. Morales
declined to give this, whereupon the
guard arrested him. Instantly Morales
drew revolver from his pocket and
fired, the guard falling dead. Morales
started up the road. but a small group
OF villagers barred his passage. Then
turning around, he deliberately pointed
the weapon to his heart, fired and
pitched forward in the roadway.
An examination of the pockets of the
dead man showed that they contained
s96 in money and a small supply OF
bread and cheese, but there was
nothing in them that would give a cleW
as to his identity.
This fact created a doubt that the
man was Morales, but when the gov
ernor of Madrid arrived with Cuesta
identification was immediate and posi-
tive. The body was then brought tC
Madrid. At first there was a desire tc
bury it at Torrejon de Ardos, but when
this was suggested the villagers in
dignantly refused to permit the body
to repose in their town.
An autopsy has deyeloned the fact

An autopsy has developed the fact
that Manuel Morales, the would be
assassin of King Alfonzo, was a fatal
degenerate. He belonged to sect of
anarchists believing in curtailment of
births and marriages to the end that
the rich might be deprived of servants.

therefore cannot be subpoenaed. The
men mentioned are Truxton Beale,
now in California, and Thomas M. Ca
leb, now in Chicago The petition
states that the two men dined with

shooting and later accompanied him
to the roof garden. The petition fur
ther states that these two witnesses
are of vital Importance to the defense
and it would be an injustice to bring
the case to trial without their testi-
mony.
