The weekly tribune and the Cape County herald. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1914-1918, 1915-12-24

According to a telegram from st.
Louis no body had been found near the
place where the hat lay and mystery
surrounds the question as to whether
the notes were written as blind and
Sullivan sought that means of dis
appearing, or he actually Ieaped into
the river.
From all the circumstances sur
rounding his disappearance, his wife
and the police are convinced that he
drowned himself.
The announced intention of suicide
is made clear by the reference in his
note to TinsIey that he was determin-
ed to go out like old man Fish"
That part of the note had reference
10 the death of G. F. Fish about two
years ago. Fish'S body was found
with q rubber tube leading from gas
Jet to his mouth and nose where it
had been securely fastened. The gas
had been turned on and he had been
asphyxiated.
Fish formerly was superintendent of
construction of the public utilities
company and was a close and intimate
friend of Sullivan's. His manner of
death had impressed Sullivan to a
great extent and last night, it was
said. he had often talked Of it to his
close friends.
Fish was a man twice as old as
Sullivan, who was but % years old.
He had been married about a year and
had made arrangements to move to
Chalfee, where he was to be in charge
of the offices of the utilities company
both at Chaffee and Illmo.
When the investigation into Sulli-
vans recent actions was made yester-
day, following the receipt of his suicide
note and the message from the Office
in St. Louis, it was discovered that
Sullivan and his wife went to st.
Louis either Monday afternoon or car
~ Tuesday morning.
Mr.. Tinsley said he understood that
he was going to take his wife to the
home of her parents in COllinsville,
H., a town a few miles out of st.
Louis on the East Side.
Neighbors and friends of Sullivan
said that the couple had announced
plans several days ago to move to
Chaffee yesterday, but inclement
weather had forced a delay in that
arrangement. Nothing was said to
any of the couples neighbors when
they left the Cape. They resided at
334 South Spanish street, in one OF
the Osterloh fats.
Nothing more was heard from Sulli-
van till yesterday when he sent several
time book sheets relating to his work
with the utilities company to Mr..
Meyers. These documents closed his
work for the company.
This action on his part was unex-
plainable to the men at the utilities
office as we'll as his disappearance. Mr..
Tinsley last night told a reporter for

diately telephoned the police depart

E%spinOza gave out a statement
charging the Mexico City faction with
the assassination of several pTomi-
nent convention members whose
deaths previously had not been re-
ported. He said:
The permanent committee OF
which i was president, the secretary
and others OF the members withdrew
from the capital in order to author
ize by our presence the crimes that
were being committed. Among these
were the assassinations of the vice
president of the committee, CUTLER
mo Farcia Aragon, and Of the first
secretary, David G.. Berlanga.
No Investigations.
