SUICIDE, THNARTED,
HELD FOR INSANITY
Michael A. Daley, Who Tried
to End Life, Is At
Hospital.

Thwarted in an attempt to end his
life by cutting his throat with razor,
while in his room, ut rs H street north
west, Michael A. Daley, fifty-one years
old, Is held today in the Washington
Asylum Hospital on a charge of IN
sanity.
Daley would probably have accom-
plished his purpose had 1t not been for
Mrs. Catherine Peck, his landlady. who
rushed into his room and knocked the
razor from his hand. Daley's actions
had attracted tho attention of Mrs.
Peck, who believed the man was tempo
rarily deranged. He had seemed de-
pressed and Respondent for several days,
and had intimated that he would kill
himself.
When he came in yesterday afternoon
and went to his room, Mrs. Peck fol-
lowed him upstairs. He was standing
before a mirror preparing to draw the
blade of the razor across his throat
when Mrs. Peck entered and knocked
the weapon to the floor. The blade,
however, grazed his throat and a slight
wound was inflicted.
A physician was called and the wound
dressed. Later a formal charge Of in
sanity was placed against him, and he
was taken to the Asylum Hospital for
observation by the police surgeons.

Sherburne p. Hopkins and the former
Miss Margaret Zunie Maury, daughter
of the late Commodore Maury, are to-
day separated by the law.
A decree of annulment was signed In

OF prank growing out of a discussion
Of elops ment. Hopkins, who is the son
of Sherburne g. Hopkins, lawyer, and
Miss Maury went to Baltimore, NoveIn-
Der %, 1903, ostensibly to attend a thea
ter. They obtained license, and were
married by the Rev. DR.. Sheridan, o.:
the Methodist Church. When they re-
turned to this city they told not even
their most intimate friends, the young
woman continuing to live with her peo-
pie and the young husband going 10
Florida and later to Central America
In August last the facts of the elope-
ment became known, and the young
woman's mother took steps to have the
union annulled on the ground that at
the time the ceremony was performed
neither of the couple was of lawful age.
The case was called before Mr. JUS
tice Harland, of the Superior Court, and
