Judge KEENAN, has found for the
defendants in the case Of Ellen G.
Gilluly vs.. the Washington Steam
Laundry. The court found that
there was no fraud as charged when
she was induced to buy 1850
shares of stock for $4,000. Mrs.
Gilluly was formerly the proprie-
tress of the Hotel Rainier Grand and
when she bought the last install
ment Of stock she gave the laundry
people her promissory note for a
balance of $6250 on condition that
they release a mortgage on the fur
niture of her hotel which she had
previously given as a guarantee
that she would pay the money. Her
last promlssory note was guaran-
teed by allowing the laundry Off
Gals to hold her stock in the con-
Germ. She brought suit to recover
the possession of the stock.

WILSON DEF|ES POLICE

Professor Wilson, the dance i'm

the most notorious of those who

while Wilson was enticing young
girls to lives of abandonment.
1t is not often that a person in
Spokane has openly set at naught
orders from the police department,
but it seems that Wilson did so and
felt secure in doing so. OF course,
the chiefs orders to Wilson applied

NEW YORK, March 26.- About
once for every 10 hours in this
great city some unfortunate, mis-.
guided creature decides that life
holds no charm and dies by his own
hand.
Big, powerful men, often in the
midst of healthy strength, take
their lives where weak, delicate wo-
men helplessly stagger on. Now
and then a beardless lad foolishly
believes that the world is too cruel
and ugly. OF the $50 persons who
committed suicide last year only
14S were women. The majority Of
those 512 men had responsibilities,
yet they shook them off and took
their lives.
where people kill themselves
because they are absolutely with
out money, gas is the easiest way"
explained DR.. VIM. H. Guilfoy, reg
lister of the health department.
Even when a man has not a penny
to buy poison he can usually find
a room where he can turn on the
gas. Then it is not death through
which comes great suffering. Thir-
ty-seven women used this way to
die last year, while only Is shot
themselves. A gunshot in the face
makes an ugly wound, and they al
most always remember that"
There were 81 men who shot
themselves in New York last year,
and It was about evenly divided
whether they placed the revolver
against the temple or the heart. A
number of these suicides were not
content, however, to go out Of life
alone. A dozen or more Of them
died on account of a woman, and
in as many instances the woman
was murdered before the pistol
was turned upon the suicide. Sew
eral of these were suicide pacts,
the woman agreeing to let the man
kill her.
Easy as death by drowning Is al
ways said to be, so far as the Off
cial statistics show last year only
two women and five men threw
themselves into the water with sui
cidal intent. But the police records
show that 4SS died by accidental
drowning" When there is no eye
proof, it is true kindness that de-
clares death by drowning "acci.
dental instead of Suicide"
"Carbolic acid causes a frightful
death. 1t burns, and sears, and
makes the victim hideous, and yet
it is by this means so many die"
said DIR. Guilfoy. "One thing is
certain about carbolic acid, the man
or woman who takes 1t is in earn
est. They have no intention of be-
ing pumped out, and It Is seldom
as a pretense to scare some one.

Howard street and to street women.
Early Saturday night, while the
dance was going on at the Olympia,
Wilson passed out a lot of notices
to those in attendance and asked
the young ladies there TO distribute
them to their friends. These no
tees boldly announced that Sunday
night dancing was to removed from
Olympia hall to Turner hall. Will
sons name was not connected with
the notice, but those who were dis
tributing them added for the in
formation of the public that Wilson
would give the dance at Turner hall
and that the orders of the police
were only to close down to crafty
public sentiment.
The same scenes of loud and
boisterous conduct which caused
the police department to "sit down"
on Wilson at the Olympia, were
evident at the Turner hall affair. A
crowd of young roughs VINO did not
have the necessary SO cents to buy

in evidence, and the aband onment
of the dance was even more CON-
plete on account of the change in
location.
People going to and from church
were subject to the insulting leers

notorious Olympia. Public decency
was set at naught by the young
rowdies who seemed to care not the
least whether they addressed some

Turner hall dance up to late Sun
day night. Early in the evening the
Olympia was flooded with light and

informed those who did not already
know that the dance was in full
swing at Turner, and hither the
crowd went in great glee.

open violation of the orders of Chief
