shot ]. P. Morgan in his home near
Glen Cove last Saturday and placed
bomb in the Capitol at Washington
Friday night committed suicide in the
Jail here last night
While several of the jail authorities
declared that Holt killed himself by
climbing through the opening at the
top of his cell door and then plunging
to the narrow court below, Holt's
keeper said he was positive that the
prisoner was killed in his own cell,
where. he said, he found the body.
Hollis suicide followed an earlier at
tempt when he slashed his wrists
with the metal of lead pencil
There were many conflicting re-
ports as to the manner in which Holt
met his death, but it was definitely es-
tablished, through DR.. Cleghorn, the
Jail physician, that Holt died of frac-
tured skull.
Several of those about the Jail said
they heard an explosion, the report

it was believed, was due to the falling
of boards from the top of the cell.
jeremiah Organ, the keeper, who
was detailed to watch Holt, said he
was fifteen feet away from the cell,
when he heard loud report. He
looked in the direction of the cell but
it was dark. Entering, he found
Hollis body, in pool of blood. in the
corner.
DR.. Cleghorn denied a report. that
Holt had killed himself by chewing a
percussion cap. He repeated that
death was caused by fracture "a
the top of the skull
An explosion which would have
blown his head off would have fol
lowed an attempt by Holt to chew a
percussion cap, the physician said.
A thorough examination of Holts
cell failed to disclose, according to the
jail authorities. any weapon or imple'
ments of any kind which Holt could
have used to kill himself.
The body was taken to the morgue
in Hampstead. where DR.. Cleghorn
was prepared Immediately to perform
an autopsy.

EXTEND UNoER.sEA CAMPAIGN
Kaiser to Garry Submarine Warfare
to American Waters.

London, July while negotiations
are in progress between the United
States and Germany on the nature OF
Germany's reply to President Wilson'S
demands that Americans on neutra
ships be protected, 1t became known
that Germany is to carry her subma
rine warfare into the waters of Amer
lea itself. This fact is regarded as
10 significant forecast of what Ger
many's answer will be to the United
States contention that the Kaiser's
underwater campaign, imperiling the
lives of neutrals and non-combatants
should be modified.
News of the decision to extend the
range of submarine activity across the
Atlantic came from Berlin and Is
credited to an official close to Ad

Germany's submarine operations.
