DAVID WILLCox's SUICIDE.
Body of Suicide Arrived at Hoboken
Today.

NEW YORK, April 27.-The body of
David Wilcox, formerly president of the
Delaware and Hudson Co., who committed
suicide on board the steamer Barbarossa in
midocean on Wednesday, was landed at
Hoboken today and given into the care of
his cousin, w. G. Wilcox. 1t was found
that Mr.. WILCOX shot himself in his mouth,
dying instantly. Mr.. Wilcox was in a
very nervous condition from i'll health when
he sailed for Europe few weeks ago. Aft
er reaching Europe he cabled to his cousin
that his condition was worse than when
he left America. Since then his relatives in
this city have had no word from him.
Mr.. Wilcox boarded the Barbarossa at
Gibraltar and the attendants were in
structed to give him every attention, as he
was then i'll and respondent. Although he
shot himself on Wednesday night it was
not until noon of the following day that
his death was discovered, when the stew
ard, growing uneasy. forced the door of his
stateroom and found him lying dead in his
berth
His illness was due in the beginning to
govt and kidney trouble, but his despon-
dency was said today to have been partly
due to financial losses suffered during the
slump in the stock market in March. The
cares of his office as president of the Della
ware and Hudson Company in a time when
heavy expenditures were needed and when
it was difficult to finance large undertake
ings bore heavily upon him in his i'll
health that he rendered his resignation as
president by cable while SIN in Europe.

We will not soon forget the impressive

organized Student Young Mems Christian

SIR W|LFR|D is, HOPEFUL
EXPRESSED HIS VIEWS ON THE
FISHERY QUESTION.
Canadian Negotiations Giving Him
More Trouble Than Those in Which
Newfoundland is Interested.

LONDON, April H.-Foreign Secretary
Grey is taking advantage of the presence
of the colonial premiers in London to OBJ
tain at first hand the views of Sir Will
frid Laurier and Sir Robert Bond on the
questions pending between the United
States and Canada and Newfoundland re-
spectively.
The secretary already has had one con-
ference with Sir Robert, but it was largely
taken up with the discussion of the
modus vivendi which the United
States and Great Britain signed
to cover the last fishing season, and
to which. the Newfoundland premier
strenuously objects on the ground of inter
ference with the rights of the colony. Fur
ther interviews will occur, looking to the
permanent settlement of the fisheries dis
pute. 1t is recognized that this is not
easy of accomplishment, as there is a
strong sentiment against AMY interference
of the imperial government with the affairs
of the colonies, and it is difficult to induce
the colonial governments to recognize that
local prejudice must give way to imperial
consideration
Effort for an Agreement.
The Canadian negotiations are giving
the foreign secretary even more trouble
than those in which Newfoundland is in
to bring about an agreement. Premier
Laurier has been too busy thus far with
the imperial conference and social engage
ments to discuss questions with the for
eign Office, but he has made an appoint
ment with the foreign secretary for the
coming week, when the whole matter will
be gone over.
Sir Wilfrid expressed to the Associated
Press his satisfaction with the hands in
which the negotiations were left and spoke
hopefully of the outcome but from other
sources it was learned that there are wide
differences of views between Secretary
Root and the Canadians. In almost every
the Canadians demand some national
compensation in return for what they are
asked to concede. AS an example, to give
up, pelagic sealing they not only ask the
United States to buy out the sealers, but
also want further concession from the
United States which might take the form
of a port in Alaska, to give traders an
entry in the Canadian Yukcn district with
out passing through American territory
At a dinner of the National Liberal Club
Sir Robert Bond took occasion to again
protest against the modus vivendi, re-
peating what he said in the legislature
before his departure from Newfoundland.

POWER Line NEAR

F. O. Broili and George A. Campbell,
of the Truckee River General Electric
Company. were arrivals Yesterday from
Reno on business connected with the in
stalling of power and lights in this city
and the mines of the district. The COM
pany regrets that there has been so
much delay in getting its line in here,
but now thinks that within the next
three weeks the city will have the juice
for both lights and power. The line is
now connected with the Nevada Doug
las and soon will be with the Mason
Valley, Western Nevada, Malachite and
other properties, and the pole line will
be strung through the town next week,
probably. The company has met with
manv obstacles, and delays have been
unavoidable, but with fairly good luck
from now on it may confidently be ex-
pected that the town will be lit up with
electric lights by the 10th of next month.

Governor Breen is quite elated with the
ground he has bargained for, and fur
thermore believes that the Yerington
district is the coming great copper dis
trict of the West also that the city of
Yerington will be one of the big ones,
provided the citizens wake up and get
busy beautifying the place. Governor
Breen is one of the heavy mining oper-
ators of Leadville, Colorado, and now
that he has become interested in this
district we may expect to see him here
quite frequently.

new ROAD into YERINCTON

terprise will be doubled next week and
the work of laying out and grading the
road begun. 1t is not at all likely that
the county will be asked to in any way
assist in the building of this road al
though large portion of it will be out
side of the city limits.
That a road coming into the city at its
northern boundary would be of consid-
cradle benefit is obvious. In the first
place it would cut off about two miles of
travel in coming from Wabuska to this
place, and this would mean much to the
travellers who have to make the trip in
by stage over roads that are never of the
best. Such a road would also be of
great advantage to the farmers living
north of Yerington in their travel to
Wabuska and return, as it would save
them number of miles on each trip.
1t is more than likely that the road
and bridge will be built within the next
two months, and if it is built at all the
work will be done in substantial man-
ner, the road put on grade, turnpiked
and covered with rock and gravel, and
sidewalks built on each side with two
rows of trees extending the entire dis
tance.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1907-07-20

For some time past there has been
considerable talk of building new road
into Yerington from the main road that
reaches this place from Wabuska. The
proposition is to have road which will
come directly into the town at or near
the northern boundary instead of run
ming by the town and coming back into
it after crossing the river, thereby max
ing it necessary to travel about three
miles further to reach Yerington. On
several different occasions an attempt
has been made to frame up new road
across the Mcleod land, but for some
reason or another the road has never
materialized. Now, however, it looks
as though the road might be built. as
taxpayers of the city have signed up
petition and agreement to contribute
something over $2100 for the building
of a road and the construction of "a
bridge across the river at some point on
the Martin ranch. This. week line
survey for an so foot street was made
over the land between Main street and
the river and it was found that very
good road can be constructed over this
line at a moderate expense. Probably
