was true.

Patrick II. Kelley. one of Mr.. Os-

born didn't meet. Mr. Kelley tried to
impress on each audience that the
only thing his opponents were saying
against him was that he had support.

Man TO SUICIDE
Victor Miller Swallows Acid, Then
Shoots Self in Palmer Park-Miss-
ing Since Wednesday Afternoon.

illness drove Victor Miller, aged 32,
who resided with his mother, Mrs.
Mary Miller, at No AL Baldwin-ave.,
to take his own life in palmer Park
early Thursday morning by shooting
himself through the mouth with re-
volver. To make death doubly sure
he first swallowed quantity OF car
.olic acid. An empty bottle that had
contained this poison was found In
the grass near him. This Is the frs.
suicide in the history of Palmer Park,
but the second within a week In this
vicinity. The body OF Miss Alice
Cronk, who killed herself with car
bolic acid several. days ago, was
found east OF the park proper.
Miller's body was discovered about
Z o'clock by an Italian workman en-
ployed in the park just at the edge of
the woods about 200 feet from the
greenhouse. Ii was lying crumbled up
on bench, with blood trickling from
the mouth. His right hand still clutch
ed the revolver and one chamber had
been discharged. 1t lis supposed that
death took place about two hours pre-
viously The workman notified Supt.
HOLSTER, who. in turn, called Justice
Potter, of Highland Park. The JUS
tice had the body removed to the
county morgue and notified the VIC
Tins mother by telephone. Mrs. Mil
Ter at once fastened to the morgue.
Miller had been i'll with the yellow
jaundice for some time and had been
very Respondent OF late. Wednesday
afternoon he left the house ostensibly
to go to a nearby drug store and did
not return. He was reported missing
to the police by his sister late Wed
nesday night.
Coroner Burgess was very indignant
when the body OF the suicide was TAX
EN- TO the county morgue In a very
rickety express wagon. Justice Pot
ter, who took charge of the case In
Highland Park, evidently did not
know OF the existence of county un-
dertaken.
The corcners' Office should have
been notified, according to Coroner
Burgess, and the matter of the DISPOSE
ton of the body left with the office.
The body was laid in the bottom of
the express wagon and was covered
with blanket.
Justice Potter has decided to hold
an inquest Friday night
