RICH JERSEYMAN
IS A b|GAM|ST.
SAYS MINISTER
Declares Curtis Cameron and
Nurse Wife Accused
Were Married.

MELVILLE, Dec. 30.-According to
the statements of a Methodist minister,
Curtis Cameron, a wealthy ice dealer,
is a bigamist. Cameron was arrested
a week ago, accused by his wife, who
named Miss Amanda Silvers, employed
at their home as a nurse.
Mrs. Cameron, after gathering evil
dence, swore out a warrant for her
husband and his alleged wife No. 2.
When the hearing was held Prosecutor
ing the pair If they were married. This
they strenuously denied, but the prose-
cutor produced a notice which was sent
out by the Rev. s. II. Evaul. of Haley
vile, announcing the marriage of the
couple on December 4 last. Relatives
of the wife will prefer charges of
bigamy against Cameron.

ALARM CLOCK
SCARES AWAY
BUSY BURGLARS
Broke Into Henry Mason's
Home and Were Hard at
Work When Bell Rang.

Somewhere in Newark there are two
burglars to whom an alarm clock is an
abomination. These two marauders
broke into the home of Henry Mason,
IS Littleton avenue, yesterday between
4 and 5 a. m, and leisurely began to
collect souvenirs of their visit. among
them an alarm clock, which had been
set for . o'clock. When its vibrant
ring fell on their startled ears they
seized the bundle, clock and all, and
made their escape, Just before Mr..
Mason appeared on the scene
Their booty consisted of a quantity
of wearing apparel. two rings and a
small amount of silverware. Had ii
not been for the alarm clocks timely
warming they would undoubtedly have
secured q large quantity of v%aluables,
which lay conveniently about.

The Common Council will probably
lineup in his manner next year, as
far as can be told at this time. The
states may be broken on account of the
tie in the Council.
At the Democratic aucus held In the
City Hall last night, it was found that
ten Of the sixteen Democrats were lined
up for the reelection of Ryan as presi-
dent of tie Council. They were Wright.
First ward; Day, Second ward; Semel,
Third ward; Mills, Fourth ward; Nc
Gowan, Fifth ward; Eisner, Thirteenth
Ward; Kroehl, Fourteenth Ward; Bray,
Fourteenth ward; B~iertuempfel.
Twelfth ward, and Gaffney, Tenth
ward. -
It. is thought that the Republicans
will not hinder the election of the choice
of the Democratic Tue because the
Mayor is a Democrat, and in consider
alton of important committees, notably
the finance committee. 1t Is also likely
that three Republican officeholders-
City Auditor Forman, City Treasurer
Guenther and a Receiver Ross-will
remain in office. Appointments to these
offices are to be confirmed by the Coun-
ell, and the Republicans have enough
votes to hold up the appointment of
Democrats.
On account of the absence of Alder
men Dolan, of the Twelfth ward; Har-
rington, Seventh ward, and Fischer,
Sixth ward. the meeting last night was
adjourned to Sunday morning at IL
o'clock in the Gottfried Kruger Club,
at Is Belmont avenue When the meet
ing was called to order by Alderman
MCGOWAN. Sinnott made a motion to
adjourn, on account of the absentees
M Day moved to proceed to business,
but Sinnott's motion prevailed.

WHERE IS DEAD
MANS DIAMOND?
Officers Making Effort to lmavel Mystery Connected With
Suicide Of Owen Fitzpatrick in This City
Last Night

What has become of the fine
diamond ring that Owen &. Fitz-
patrick, the young railroad man,
is known 70 have had less than
thirty minutes before he blew
his brains ont last night in his
room at the Specrs home on Ute
avenue in this city? This is IA
question which has been puzziing
Chief of Police O'Ncil all day
today and late this afternoon he
was no nearer II solution of the
mystery of the missing ring than
he was when he started out on
rigid investigation tour this
morning.
Owen Fitzpatrick. aged 33 years,
had resided in Grand Junction for
several years and was for a long
period employed on the Montrose line
of the Rio Grande as an engineer
Some time ago he lost his job. His
wife. with whom. II seems, he had
had some trouble. left him several
months ago and went to Greeley to
reside. Since then he has lived here
alone. II is known that since he has
been without work he has been de-
spondent at times and has drunk
quite freely on several occasions.
Yesterday he seemed gloomy and
downcast in spite of the TACT thai il
was Christmas day. Doubtless his
lonely condition, his poor prospects
and his domestic troubles worried
him and proved upon him and has
tened him to the determination to
kill himself. He was almost without
funds but he had gold watch and a
fine diamond ring. These he seem
ed loath to, part with. However. yes
terday afternoon at a late hour he
is known to have started out to make
the ROUNDS OF pawn brokers and other
persons who are usually willing 20
make loans on jewolry. etc.
1t is known that he visited several
places and asked at each place that
he be advanced $1,000 on the ring
declaring that the ring was worth
much more and that he was sorely
in need of money. He was not accom-
modated. so far as can be ascertained
at any place he called. He was told
by the brokers that as ii was getting
cept ring for such a large loan un-
less they could make good exam
ination in daylight.
II is known that between g.: 30 and
z o'clock Fitzpatrick displayed the
ring to bartender mt a local saloon
A few minutes later he went to his
room on Ute avenue. He chatted q
few moments with members of the
family before going to his room. Ii
was clear to all that he was very de-
spondent.
AT no time had the unhappy man
The daily sentinel., 1908-12-26

, said anything to any one, so far as
can be learned. as to his intention Of
killing himself
1t was shortly after O'Clock when
Fitzpatrick entered his room and at
7;15 o'clock a shot rang out. The
members of the family found that
the young man had locked the door
to his room. Chief of Police O'Neil
was notified and was soon at the
home and was the first person to
enter the room. The young man was
found dead upon the floor. in a great
pool of bloou y revolver of 3S-
calibre, lay near his right hand. He
had shot himself The bullet en-
tered the head Just above the right
ear. passed through the head and out
near the top on the left side. Death
had been instantaneous. The young
man left no lote of explanation On
his person was found his watch and
the box in which it is known that he
carried the ring but the ring was
missing and every effort that has
been made to locate it has failed. In
view of the fact that Fitzpatrick had
had the ring within the hour and
| that he had no money on his person
indicating that he had sold II as he
| desired TO d., the disappearance OF
the ring is very strange.
II is not known where Fitzpatrick
secured the revolver with which he
ended his lifp.
The deceased had Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers pin on his
person being a member of the order.
On dresser III the room was a card
signed by his mother. asking him tc
come and spend Christmas with them
at their home in Cimarron. 1t is
known that Fitzpatrick visited his
parents only few days ago and af-
ter this postal had been received.
The remains were taken to the
undertaking establishment of Cos
grove & Slough. No inquest will be
necessary as II is plain case of sui
eide
The parents of the deceased will
arrive tonight to take charge of the
remains.
The deceased was well liked in
railroad circles and his untimely
death was I great shock to many
friends.
Fitzpatrick. it seems. owed quite a
number of bills and these added to
his worry

THE ST. REGIS, new YORK
Favorite Home of Many Hundreds
of Transient Visitors.
A HOTEL OF ELEGANCE AND Refinement

At the social center of that famous thorough
fare. Fifth avenue. and only four blocks from
Central Park, stands the st. Regis, hotel of
elegance and refinement. 1t is the chosen home
of many hundreds of transient visitors to the
metropolis.
The St Regis was conceived and constructed
with the idea Of perfect conformity with its Sc
lcct environment, and those who share its hos
pitslity are certain to find the utmost comfort
and enjoyment with entire freedom from dis
cordant elements and distracting influences
Within its portals you may enjoy the best that
money can buy, and much which YOUR money
cannot buy.
Yet. with all that these facts imply the St
Regis is not above the means OF the average
person, and 1t particularly invites transient pa
tronage. Its charges do not exceed those of first
class hotels generally-in fact, in proportion t.
the comforts provided they are even less. A
large, we'll furnished room may be had for 81, o.
one with bath In connection for SIS day ($6 pei
bath for $l2 and upward; while the restaurant
charges are at standard rates.
Such being the case, why not choose the st
Regis as your home when in New York;

"A telegram has been sent to Mrs. Meyer
by the Louisiana delegation in Congress
expressing the sorrow which they feel.
Not in Robust Health.
Gen. Meyer had not been in robust
health since the death Of his twin brother
Victor, nearly two years ago, but he was
able to attend to his duties at the Capt.
tol until the end of the last Congress.
During the last tweny-four hours of the

ures in which he was greatly interested
the New Orleans immigration station bill
and the Chalmette monument bill-fear-
ing that they would not be passed in time
TO receive the Presidents signature, that
he broke down completely. He denied
himself sleep during the consideration of
the conference report on the naval
bill. as he was one of the con-
ferees. and when the opportunity came
for recognition by the Speaker to call up
the immigration station measure he was
almost too Ill to stand. Mr.. Mann prompt
ly objected to his request for considera-

dashed to the ground. Judge Davey, how
ever. interceded with the representative
from Illinois. who subsequently withdrew
his objection. and Gen. Meyer was sue
cessful in getting his bill through.
Immediately he collapsed, and for weeks
suffered with a severe attack Of stomach
trouble from which he never recovered.
He partially regained his strength. how
ever, and with Mrs Meyer took daily
