This recommendation concludes
the report of the coroner's jury
in the inquisition upon the body OF
Harry Smith, otherwise known as
Michael Nicols. who committed
suicide late Saturday night by tax
ing an overdose of opium. The
jury had before it experts who tes-
tilted that Prescott was invaded by
IA greater percentage OF "hop-heads"
than any other community in the
State
The unfortunate victim of the
drug. together with 4 fellow in
dulgant. walked out to a point
among the rocks and directly oppo-
site the railroad shops, late Satur-
day afternoon. There while one OF
them proceeded to wash some
clothes in the creek, the other
prepared the dose on opium.
Smiths comrade realized that
something was wrong when he
failed to come out OF his poppy
dream. Leaving the dying man be-
hind, the comrade rushed to the
city where he hunted up Attorney
James 10y. The two returned to
the scene to find Smith in a dying
condition. DR.. II. T. SOuthworth
was then secured and the uncon-
sciouS man taken to the county
hospital There he died three hours
later
Coroner Charles H. McLanc was
notified and on Sunday he sum
moned his jury. The investigation
went even further than into the
details Of the death, some interest
ing evidence disclosing Prescott's
unfortunate claim to supremacy and
undesired publicity in connection
with opium.
Smith was about twenty-five years
of age. His father in Chicago has
been notified.
Acting upon the suggestion OF
the coroner's jury, County Attorney
p. w. O'Sullivan last night COM
menccd the issuance Of John Doe
warrants for all known people be-
lieved to be traffickers in opium and
other forms of dope" The county
attorney is determined to wipe out
the evil as soon as possible and
proposes to leave no stone un-
turned in the campaign.

New York, Feb. 8. After a brisk
advance in the early session the market
grew quiet to day, but prices were we'll
maintained. The steady absorption for
investment account recently apparently
reduced the floating supply of stocks,
and shorts who attempted to cover
were forced to raise their bids. London
operators bought freely here. especially
in steel. Buying orders OF coppers, in
spite of the fall in the metal prices
abroad, was regarded as forecasting

ducers. Forced liquidation of Rock
Island securities carried them down
abruptly to new low records, which
checked the advance elsewhere
