MAYORS SON A SUICIDE
T. W. GLENN HANGS HIMSELF AT
SEATTLE, WASH.
Deceased Was Prominently Identified
with Big Steamship Companies
on Pacific Coast.

WAUKESHA, Wis, Dec. 2S.-[Spe-
cial. Mayor NJ. w. Glenn received
word Sunday of the death of his son,
J. W. Glenn, aged 40 years, who conn
mitted suicide by hanging at Kent,
Wash. Mr.. Glenn was a Kentuckian
and well known on the Pacific coast
where he had for the past eight years
been employed by one Of the large steam
ship companies. In his position he had
charge of large shipments of gold from
tn Yukon district to California, frequent
ly having gold valued at several million
dollars in his charge. The responsibility
Of his position is thought to have
weighed heavily on his mind and to
have made him a nervous wreck. When
the season closed in October he went to
Seattle where, two months ago, he at
tempted suicide by drinking carbolic
acid. He was subsequently placed in a
sanitarium by friends of his father
which he recently left much improved.
On Christmas day he went to Kent,
thirty miles from Seattle, where he
hanged himself. Mayor Glenn, who is
unable to go to Seattle, has wired in
structions to have the body buried at
Lake View cemetery, Seattle. Both of
Col. Glenn's sons met tragic deaths,
younger son, Eugene, having been killed
by fall from a bridge in the Indian
territory eight years ago.

OSHKOSH, Wis, Dec. 2S.-[Special.]
Congressman James H. Davidson, who
is at home for the holidays, will return
to Washington January l, to attend the
opening session of Congress, January 4.
In an interview today he stated that the
revision of the tariff will be taken up at
special session of Congress following
the inauguration of Presdent-elect Taft
and that the members of Congress are
taking a keen interest on the subject of
tariff revision. He says there Is no need
of the suggested commission to handle
of this matter is composed of experts
for years and are thoroughly equipped
for their work.
Congressman Davidson says the effect
the revision of the tariff will have upon
the revenues of the government should
be given important consideration and he
says he will favor any item that will
tend to reduce the cost of living, partic-
ularly of the necessities of life.
Congressman Davidson considers Pres
ident ,Roosevelt's attack upon Congress
relative to the secret service, as an in
suit to every member, which ought to
be resented. He says there was no rea-

been, coming from the chief executive of
