IN BRUSH

That the body found near Souh
Tacoma yesterday is that of sui
eide, is the belief of Coroner
Shaver and Detective Brady, who
investigated the case. A revolver
with one chamber empty was
found near the body. A hole in
the left breast told the rest of the
story.
The body was badly decomposed.
Except for the initials IS. G." on
the hatband and one sock there
was nothing on the body which
might lead to Identification. The
man had been dressed in blue
coat. dark trousers and black hat.
The body Is at Mellingers. The
suicide was discovered in the brush

that the passengers were thrown

the women were hysterical and the
men showed but little composure.
Capt Layland and the officers went
among the passengers. assuring them
the boat was in no immediate danger.
The officers were SO cool that passen-

to their staterooms.
In the meantime the lifeboats were
launched and the passengers. their
courage at last revived, were taken
ashore. The manning OF the lifeboats
called for the best seamanship pos
sible, as the heavy sea threatened con-
stantly To overturn the boats. Within
two hours, however, the last OF the
passengers had been landed.
