hour earlier than usual. There was
but one witness, VIM. Nelson Crom-
we'll, the New York lawyer who fig
ured prominently in the Panama can
al purchase. While no one would
volunteer any information of the SUBJ
ject it is believed that Mr.. Cromwell
laid bare the whole story of his first
connection with the Panama canal
purchase, especially with that phase
which had to do with the payment OF
s40,000,000 to the foreign sharehold-
ers. In an interview last sall Crom-
we'll denied that any of this money
came back into American hands.
In course of his examination 8. r.

appeared with number of official pa

examination consisted simply of the
identification Of these documents. The
grand jury then adjourned until Mon

LIFE STRUGGLE
WAS TOO BITTER
This Is Reason Given by VIII
ton Girl Who Suicided
in Chicago

Chicago, Jan. 23-It was an ordi-
nary suicide, committed in an ordi-
nary manner. The city records tell
the story of it in an ordinary way.
A deputy coroner held an ordinary
inquest yesterday afternoon and the
jury returned an ordinary verdict to
the effect that Miss Alice Law, 26
years old, of Wilton, N. D., had killed
herself at the home Of Mrs. J. Higgins,
5427 Indiana avenue, where she board
ed, by inhaling illuminating gas
through rubber tube.
All this was very ordinary with the
great tragedy of stified ambition be-
hind 1t all; the agony of an artistic
temperament, nurtured by a college
education, only to be circumscribed
and suppressed by poverty and an
uncongenial clerkship; the fierce de-
sires for poetic flights and "only to
sing, and to sing" which came to
her as heritage from the wild Chip
pewa chieftain, who was her father;
her futile search for mental balm
through the occult in literature and
the final collapse of nicely attuned
mined under the dead weight of pro-
sale monotony-these things combine
to life the suicide of Miss Law out of
the common place.
Not Disappointed in Love.
It was supposed that she had
killed herself because of a disappoint-
ment in love, but this was not true.
Her only love was music. her only
idol, Beethoven. Her mother, Mrs.
r "A. Law, Is an English woman and
lives at Wilton, N. ID. She married
a Chippewa chief, now dead.
The girl had the very best Of edu-
cation and finished technical course
in Purdue university in 1902. The
practical English mother induced her
to take up the study of craftsman
ship and engineering. arguing that no
one could hope to make living by
envying the nightingale and writing
silly little tunes"
So Alice worked at a desk in the
Offices of the Myron c. Clark Publish
ing company. 355 Dearborn street.

The big tonnage of ore shipped
 every month from the Golconda mine
 i, bringing results to the surrounding
 mines in the Stocton Hill and Union
 and Todd Basin sections of Wallapai district, every mine that shows per . centage of lead or zinc being gobblen up by representatives of the big smell IIng concerns. Practically all tn, mines that have been e d for years by mine owners have been taken over
 within the last two or three month, and it is expected that there will soon be big consolidation of the interests.
 The Golconda will undoubtedly absorb several surrounding properties now held by Mr. Boyle. No more of the treasury stock of the company is for sale, although the last quotation was in the neighbornood of one dollar per 'hare, which is on basis of one mil lion dollars for the mine. With like development it is expected that ther, will be a number of other million dollar properties opened up.
 E. $. Berry, who is one of the corps of engineers looking after the interests of John Hays Hammond in this county. visited the Union Pass mines with Co T. E. McClelland yesterday.

Cage Tender Meets Horrible Death.

John Cassela, cage tender at the number one shaft of the Gold Road mine, met horrible death yesterday afternoon. The man was accustomed to riding the cage from the 800 level to the collar, and in some unaccount- able manner was caught in the tim bers and killed. The cage coming up with out him the hoist man investigated and found one foot ard shreds of flesh on the cage. A search party was sent down, but failed to find the body of the unfortunate man. As the chair, at the 300 were open it is b. lieved that the body dropped from the cage to the stump at the 500 level. The pumps were at once started and the water has been reduced to within twenty feet of the 800. The stump will be drained sometime today and the body recovered.
 Cassela is a native of Nevada City. and is probable that tho will be shipped to that place for burial. The man was familiarly known as ".Sharkey", and was warm hearted generous man.
