TUCKER IS A SUICIDE,
ACCORDING TO DR.. SLIFER

Special to The Washington Herald
New York, Dec. 21.-The American will
tomorrow publish the following dis
patch:
Philadelphia, Dec. 21.-Despite the coro-
ner's verdict this morning after the in
quest over the body of Capt. Logan
Tucker. l.. S. M c., retired, that the for
mer army officers death at the William
Penn Inn. Gwynedd, Wednesday night
was due to heart failure. the attending
physician, DR.. H. F. Slifer, of North
Wales, and some of the guests of the
hotel believe that the circumstances point
strongly to suicide.
Dr. Slifer was not called to testify at
the inquest, which was held briefly this
morning. He was the physician sum-
moned Immediately after Capt. fuckers
death.
Capt. Tucker was the grandson of Gen.
John A. Logan, and the son of Col. Will
lam F. Tucker and Mrs. Mary Logan
Tucker, both of whom have been connect
ed with divorce affairs which startled
army circles and the society of Washing
ton, New York, and Philadelphia several
years ago. His sudden death at the Will
lam Penn Inn Wednesday caused stir.
Dr. Slifer said this afternoon:
IT took the 9 o'clock car from North
Wales. and was at the inn soon after
Capt Tucker died. / found him lying on
the bed. His face was almost black.
Guests and others say he turned almost
blue while at the table. / tried restor-
atives and artificial respiration. but the

Civil Service Pensions.
The President renews his recommenda-
ton for a contributory civil service pen
sion and retirement plan. He says:
I have already advocated, in my last
annual message, the adoption of civil
service retirement system, with a con-
tributory feature to ii so as to reduce
to minimum the cost to the government
of the pensions to be paid. After con-
siderable reflection, / am very much op-
posed to a pension system that involves
no contribution from the employees. l
think the experience of other governments
1ustities this view; but the crying neces-
sity for some such contributory system,
with possibly a preliminary governmental
outlay. in order to cover the initial cost
and to set the system going at once while
the contributions are accommodating. is
manifest on every side. Nothing will so
much promote the economy and efficiency
OF the government as such a system"
On Federal Patronage.
As a much needed civil service reform,
the President asks the removal from the
patronage list OF a large number of local
offices, saying:
Il wish to renew again my recon-
mendation that all the local offices
throughout the country, including collec-
tors of internal revenue. collectors of Gus
toms, poStmaSters of all four classes
immigration commissioners, and mar
shals should be bv law covered into the
classified service, the necessity for con-
firmation by the Senate be removed, and
the President and the others whose time
is now taken up in distributing this
patronage under the custom that has
prevailed since the beginning of the gov
ernment in accordance wis the recon-
mendation of the Senators and Congress
men of the majority party, should be
relieved from this burden. l am confident
that such a change would greatly reduce
the cost of administering the govern
ment, and that ii would add greatly to
its efficiency. 1t would take away the
power to use the patronage of the gov
ernment for political purposes. When
officers are recommended by Senators and
Congressman from political motives and
for political services rendered II is I'M.
possible to expect that while in Office the
appointee will not regard their tenure az
more or less dependent upon continued
political service for their patrons and
no regulations, however stif or rigid.
will prevent this, because such regula-
tiOns. in view of the method and motive
for selection. are plainly inconsistent and
deemed hardly worthy of respect"

Unnerved by Death.
Neither Mrs. Logan nor the officer
widow were able to speak of the alleged
suicide last night The long trip on the
train following the entirely unexpected
announcement of his death had so COM

arrive at the home tomorrow, when final
arrangements for the funeral will be
completed.

 It may be described as directly be-
 meath a point probably not over 100 feet from the High Line station and directly under the Fl Pasc ard South western right of way. This ore body
 was encountered on the 1900 ieyel and has now been cut for S5 feet and
 found to be continuously high grade ore. No idea of how thick this body is has yet been obtained since as yet no cross cutting or raising has been
