Instances Are Given.

After the publication OF a spectacular
suicide by jumping from a high place
in Chicago. displayed upon the front page
Of Chicago papers, several similar at
tempts were made within few days"
The report mentions several other in
stances OF attempted suicide following
publication of stories of suicide. The re-
port says that while the death rate from
homicide and suicide has been increasing,
the general death rate has been decreas-
ing.
The question is asked: How much 10
the press to be blamed for homicides az
well as for suicides? Are they not accom-
plices in the crimes?"
The report continues:
considering the occupations. We find
that for males the general laborerS and
those engaged in agriculture are least
prone to suicide Soldiers and sailors are
most prone to die by suicide. 1t is
prominent cause OF death for saloonkeep-
erS, brewers, cigarmakers, servants,
architects. bankers, collectors. CONNER
cial travellers and druggists. tailors.
journalists and lawyers. Among employ
ed women we find that II Is prominent
cause of death for telegraph and tele-
phone operators. cigarmakers and ste
nographers. i'm the order mentioned. The
actively insane or those hopelessly dis
eased mentally are not prone TO suicide
Then, discussing in detail the question
of publishing news of suicides. the report

MOTT WINS COL0RED
SCHOOL CHAMPIONSHIP
Beats Jones School in Deciding
Game BY Score of
g to s.

The Mott School base ball team de-
feated the Jones School team in an in
teresting game on the Monument grounds
Friday morning. This game ended the
city championship series between the
four division champions and returns the
Mott School team a winner. with Jones.
Bell and Stevens teams tied for second
place.
The Jones team had their usual strong
lineup. with Martin in the box, while
ing, their star catcher, and Brooks, the
big. hard hitting first baseman. In the
field Mott also had to enlist the services
OF green hand in right field.
1t looked as IL It would be a walk-away
for Mott. for they pounded Martin for
five runs I'm the first two innings, while
the best that Jones could do were to
draw goose eggs. In the fifth Jones made
a strong bid for the game. Two bases
on balls. coupled with hit and two err
rors which threw away chances for double
plays. netted Jones four runs. which with
the two scored in a previous inning tied
the score.
In her half Mott forged to the front
on some good hitting and base running.
which Melted two runs. Horad. Mott s
star pitcher. now steadied down. with
he'io iNch'Si "oAAS etic icScishh6 ~. MINI
and Jones went hitless for the last two
innings.
Little Taylor, Motifs left fielder. was
struck by foul tip and painfully hurt.
but gamely stuck ii out and contributed
his share in field and at bat.
Parks at third and Dggleston at short
played their usual strong game. Warren
and Gordon held down second and first
in veteran style. Big Wayne served very
creditably in his utility role OF catcher
and fielder. Herriot did his best as a
new man in right field
Martin pitched a very creditable game
for the losers.
The Mott School team has not lost a
game this season. The I. s. A. A. trophy
will probably be presented in the fall.

Cater to the Morbid.

'If a shocking accident occurs there IL
at once congregated mob. which gloats
over the sight. 1t is the same class, and
that only. to whom the press caters
when IL publishes accounts OF suicides
There is no possible excuse. The plea
of news Is a makeshft. In a large
proportion of the accounts OF deaths from
other causes no mention Is made OF tho
cause.
The present decadent condition OF the
press OF the United States is often men

assif the criminal were TO be admired for
his skill. Is IL true that the people de-
mand such news? We doubt IL.
In conclusion, we. as defenders of the
health and morals of the communities. re-
quest the press OF America to refrain
We ask the editors to mentally place
themselves as members OF bereaved fam
lilies, and to consider IT, in making such
publications, they are doing as they would
be done by.
IF. however. the members of the press
are still skeptical as 10 the fact that thev
are now accessories to crime. we suggest
that they assist in the study OF the con-
ditions. We suggest that in each city the
papers agree to refrain from such publi-
cation for a month. then that alt stimuli
taneously publish an account OF one such
case. placing the account upon the front
page. with suitable headlines. Again re-
frain from further publication OF such
cases for a month. In the meantime. let
them keep the accurate statistics as TO

present conditions. We suggest that these
data be sent to the officers OF the acad-
envy as a basis for further study. Ii the
results show a direct relationship, further
persistence in the publication should be
recognized as criminal"

Views of Alienists.

The publication OF suicide news on the
plea of news is declared to be a make
shift. The report says in part:
Your committee finds that aiienists are
practically unanimous in the opinion that
the suggestive effect of the reading of de-
tails of suicides is a powerful factor in
the causation OF suicides among suscepti-
BILE individuals.
Newspaper men. while admitting that
the alienists are of the opinion that such
publications are a cause OF the crime.
and even admitting that there may be
some truth in the opinion. reply that il Is
the province Of the papers to publish the
news. Attempts to prevent such publica-
ton are invasions OF the liberty of the
press. They say that the people demand
the news and 1t must be given them.
Attempts at legislation are practically
useless unless preceded by such popular
education as will cause a general demand
for the legislation, and will assist in the
enforcement Of laws when enacted.
Believing that the newspaper fra
ternity will be the first TO aid when con-
WINGED of the Importance of the subject.
we have begun a general study of the
facts, which Is made a part of this re-
port.
