BANKER
SUICIDES IN JAIL
MANkER WHO SURRENDERED
HIMSELF RECENTLY AFTER
HIDING THREE YEARS.

San Francisco, Aug. 3.-Carey A.
Marker, the Pearl H., banker. who
few days ago gave himself up and
said he had been for three years "A
fugitive under Indictment for the EN-
bezzlement of $4,000, died in Central
Emergency hospital here early Thurs
day, a suicide Sitting on his prison
cot late Wednesday, Marker severed
his iuglar vein, using a small rusty
pocket knife.
Shortly after , o'clock Wednesday
afternoon, less than an hour before
he inflicted the wound from which
he died, Marker said to a newspaper
man"
I'm going back to Pearl and I'm
going 10 stick it out. Down in my
heart feel the sting of the scorn
and calumny, and with a firm knowl-
edge that | never did a wrong act

I'm going to build my life anew. I've
got confidence in myself I know |
can rehabiltate my fortune and re
establish myself in The hearts of the
people who trusted me"
Marker mp to three years ago was
an influential and supposedly wealthy
resident of Pearl. He had been gamb-
ling in stocks for some time, however,
and had lost large sums of money.
He devoted a large amount of cash
to a vain effort to perfect a device
TO prevent the robbery of banks.
Manker was about 65 years old, and
announced his identity in a water
front lodging house after having been
a Wandcrer since his flight from Pearl.
Hunger and loneliness drove him to
surrender.

Wholesale Recall System.

long vocal monologue in its behalf,
for the recall of any federal Judge
in the United States, from the su-
preme court down. by resolution of
congress. This militant. progress
ssive" democrat, as he styles himself.
also provides in this bill that United
States district and circuit judges shall
he elected by the people of the district
or circuit over which he is to have
jurisdiction every four years. He has
also introduced a bill proposing a
method of amending the federal con-
stituton, by establishing constitu-
tional majority rule and submitting
such amendments to a referendum
vote of the people. The bill carries
with it most complicated system
of mailing out votes and pamphlets
to the people, all the cost to be paid
by the government.
