CHANCE IS URGED
Architects Will Be Asked to
Modify Plans for Postof-
fee Improvement.
FOR A BETTER EXTERIOR
Intention to Leave Roof of Present
Building as 1t Is, Is Subject
of General Criticism.

So general has been the criticism OF
the plan for the Improvement of the
postoffice building by the construction
of two wings by the construction
height, that Postmaster H. A. j. Ne
Donald has taken the matter up with
the authorities at Washington, and is
endeayoring to secure a modification
of the plans, SO that the exterior ap-
pearance of the building will be more
pleasing.
1.-The interior arrangements of the
building under the plans of M. F. Foer-
ster, the architect who is to prepare
the detailed plans for the treasury de.
partment, are perfect" said Postmas-
ter Mcdonald. But the exterior since
the wings are to be two stories high,
while the roof of the present building
is to be unchanged, will not present
an attractive appearance. There is
general complaint on the subject, and
|if possible | will induce the architect
to modify his plans
Orders for Quarters.

building, has been notified to secure

Think IT SUICIDE
Body Found in Rock River,
Identified as John Baker
of this City.
HAD BEEN DESPONDENT
Disability and Loss of Interest in
Life Are Given as Motives for
Drowning Himself.

The man who was found in Rock
river yesterday afternoon proved to
be John Baker of this city, and an
inquest over the remains was held
this morning at the Knox undertake
ing rooms by Coroner ]. F. Rose. The
inquest brought out the fact that
the death was evidently a case of
suicide. Baker, who was about Sc
years old. has spent the last 10 years
or so in this city doing odd jobs for
a living, and his life was none too
happy. He was disabled in his lower
limbs so that walking was rather diff
ficult and this coupled with the fact
that life seemed to hold out no bright
prospects caused him to become down
hearted and discouraged.
Had Been Discouraged.
This loss of interest in life was
noticed some two weeks ago by c.
F.. Hilfinger, 1906 Second avenue,
with whom Baker had made his home
for about eight years. The latter
conducts harness shop and Baker
was in the habit of helping him in
his work. Lately he had neglected
his duties, and at times seemed to for
get the fact that he was working. Sun
| day afternoon, Baker appeared little
more discouraged than usual. About

2 o'clock he left the house as was
his custom and started for a walk.
That was the last time he was seen
alive.
The impression is that he took a
Watch Tower car and went out to
Rock river. He then strolled up the
shore of the river to the point where
Coal creek empties into Rock river.
There he must have thrown himself
into the river.
William Bishop, who is in charge
of the launch which works between
the construction camp and the cut
off above the Tower, noticed the body
floating in the water about 60 feet
from shore, while he was backing
down from the steel dam towing a
barge. Bishop cut the barge loose
and piloted the launch to the body
which he secured and towed to the
shore. He then went down to the
offices at Sears and notified the
authorities.
Had No Relatives.
The verdict of the jury after hear
ing all the evidence in the case was
that Baker had committed suicide
by drowning.
Baker was Sc years old and had
spent a large part of his life in this
city. He had no relatives other than
several cousins and distant relations.
Inquest Over Nose Tuttle.
The coroner's jury in. the inquest
over the remains of Nose futile, who
was found dead in his bed in his
room over Luchman's saloon yester-
day morning, gave as its verdict that
he had come to his death from a
stroke of apoplexy. This verdict
was the result of the examination
made by DR.. Ralph Dart, who viewed
the remains soon after they were
discovered.
Frank l.. Hall, the eolored porter
at the saloon, testified as to the find
| ing of the body and James Given ties
titled that he had accompanied thu

Boy Blown Across River.
When the gust struck the city a
party of boys ranging in ase from ~
TO 10 years We're playing about a skiff
at the foot of Twelfth street, one of
the number being in the boat. The
wind suddenly caught the craft and
broke it loose from its moorings carry

luckless passenger had no oars and
could not have used them if he had
been provided. Straight across the
river he was carried to the Davenpor;
side, landing safely at point if any
| thing above where he started. The
waves were not high. owing to the fact
that the wind rose suddenly and was
across instead of up stream. Had il
been otherwise the boy would prob
ably have been drowned.
