to all parts Of the hall except the dele

1t became known that Senator Kern,
i'll from the effects of heat, had been

A chorus from the rear OF the hall
drowned out Fitzgerald's intended

the galleries unless the speakers were
accorded attention, but the hub-bub
continued.
"This convention will adjourn at

With this statement Mr.. Fitzgerald

A squad of policemen on duty out

galleries seemed beyond all control
and intent upon shouting to their
hearts content.
While the demonstration was on,
Chairman Mack announced that the

ATTEMPTS TO
END HIS LIFE
IN CITY JAIL
RICHARD WINTERS, WHITE MAN,
HELD FOR sAFEKEEPINe, WAS
FOUND LAST NIGHT WHERE HE
HAD HANGED HIMsELF-LlFE
WAS ALMOST EXTINCT.

When Turnkey Harper reached the
sick ward on his round of inspection
at the city jail last night at 500
o'clock he found Richard Winters,
white, who was confined there for
safe-keeping, hanging from Hipe in
an unconscious condition and almost
dead, and had the officer been few
moments later the probabilities are
that life would have been entirely ex-
Drs. S. r. NJ. Kennedy and Thomas
Stokes, who were Immediately sum-
moned, had worked on him for nearly
an hour that he was considered out Of
danger.
The means by which Winters hung
himself was by tying a handker-
chief around his neck and fastening it
to one Of the steam heat pipes in the
room, having first climbed upon the
heater. After securing the handker
chief around his neck and to the pipe,
he Jumped off the heater. 1t is not
know how long he had been hanging
when discovered by the turnkey, but
1t had been long enough for him to
have almost accomplished his inten-
ton of self destruction.
Second Attempt.
This is the second attempt within
the past week on the part of Winters
to end his life. A few days ago he
stabbed himself severely with knife.
1t was then that he was taken into
custody by the police and placed in the
hospital ward at the city jail
While 1t is not definitely known. the
officers are of the opinion that VIM
ters's attempts at suicide are due to
q break with woman, who is said to
have thrown him down recently for
another and about which he is said to
have been considerably disturbed.
Winters is a single man and is about
thirty years of age. He is a fisher
man.
He was seen by representative Of
the Journal last night, but was in no
condition to talk.

to join him in urging such a man like
