Shoots Himself With Revolver Il,
His Room.

John T. Cotman, colored, fifty years OF
age, of Warrenton, Va, committed sui
eide this morning in his room at 81

himself.

parently in the best Of health last night
and early this morning. He left his room
on the third floor of the Missouri avenue
house about o'clock this morning. He
spoke to several persons in the house and
later left the premises. He returned
about 8 O'Clock. He had been in his room
only a short time when a pistol shot was
heard. Another roomer made an investi-
CATION and found Cotman lying on the
floor with wound over his heart.

shooting himself with shotgun he had
in the room. The gun was found lying
on the bed, while a belt of cartridges was
nearby. He. however used a .32-calber
revolver.
He had been in the city for the last
month. --He is said to have daughter

SUNKEN BOATS RAISED.
Pleasure Craft Taken From the Ice
for Overhauling.

The power boat & I, one of the local
fleet of pleasure craft which sank in the
Eastern branch during the freeze. has
been raised and taken ashore to have
damage repaired and the boat put in trim
for service on the river in the coming
summer months. Three other unnamed
launches belonging to Washington own
ers have also been raised in the past
day or two. and they have also been
placed ashore for overhauling. The SINK
ing of these boats was caused by the
freezing of the water in their pipes lead
ing overheard. which caused the pipes to
burst and allowed the water free entry
into the boats. which soon sunk. The
heavy ice In the branch prevented the
owners o. the craft from getting at them,
and 1t was only during the recent spell
OF thawing weather that they could be
raised. 1t is stated that a number of
power boats, whose owners did not drain
them properly, had water jackets on their
engines frozen and cracked, necessitating
considerable repairs to put them in good
TRIM for service.
