FROM ct. LOUIS SAYS
THAT LLOYD q. M'cLuER HAD \
KILLED hiMEsELF.
RELATIVES, HOWEVER,
FAIL TO VERIFY FACT
Inquiry From Paper, Asking For Some
thing on MccIuers Relatives, is
Only Information at Hand-Mecluer
Has Boon Away From Homo Many
Years and Has Not Boon Hoard From

Inquiry by telegraph, late Friday
to the Times Repub lican, resulted In
the information that Lloyd u. NC
Cluer. OF Gilman, had committed sui
eide. Where. or by what means, the
message did not say, the mission Of the
st. Louis paper being to ascertain
something about the dead mans fam
fly. Inquiry at St Louis by relatives
here and the T.-R. fails today to verify
the fact above the first information.
AS soon as the Times Republican
learned Of the case B. B. MoCluer, mer-
chant police. was secured by phone
and informed of the message, as Lloyd
D. McCluer is a brother OF Mr.. Nc
'Cluer and Mrs. Fl j. Robb, Of this city.
Mr.. Robb was also informed, and made
preparation to leave on the early morn
ing train for ST. Louis, providing he
was able to secure q veriflcation thru
some official source.
Fall to Confirm Story.
Mr. Robb called up the chief Of po-
lice at ST. Louis, and also talked With
Associated Press headquarters. but
failed to secure notification OF his
brother lin davis death.
The Times-Republican today made
an effort by wire TO secure an abso-
lutte verification. but without avail. It
is presumed that If McCiuer did kill
himself the death took palce at some
point in st. Louis news territory, yet
not in the city itself.
Lloyd D. McCluer has been gone
from home about ten years. His leav-
ing was as strange and unaccountable
as Is now the story Of hts death. He
was working for the late Charles Cole
bourne, on the latter's farm when, one
day, he quit and returned to town, babe
his mother good bye, and left for no
one knows where. Two or three years
later a friend Of the family saw Nc
Cluer In the Dakotas, but since that
time, a period OF seven or eight years,
nothing has ever been heard from the
man.
Relatives here explain that Mr. Nc
Cluer possessed a peculiar disposition.
He wanted to make something OF him
self unaided wanted to be away from
his people until he had made his fort
une, and did not care to return until he
had.
Mr.. McCluer was IS years old and
single so far as any OF his relatives
here know. His aged mother. Mrs.
Mary Ann McCluer, is at present in
Vinton with relatives and attending
home coming week. His father, the
late ]. c. McCluer. died five years ago.
Mrs. w. H. Vosburg and Mrs. Peter
Cannon, OF Gilman, are sisters, ana F.
s. McCluer Of Gilman, brother.
Aside from the brother and sister here
another brother. z. c. McC1uer. lives
at Alliance. Neb.
