DR.. WAITE FOUND BLEEDING.

Sing Sing, N. Y. July 26. DIR. Ar
thur Warren Waite, awaiting electro.
cution here for the murder of his
father-in-law, John E. Peck of Grand
Rapids, Mich, was found in his cell
in the death house last night bleeding
from a wound in his chest, made in
the shape of a cross. The prisoner
had cut himself with a piece of broken
glass.
How Waite had obtained possession
of the glass could not be explained.
Ii is presumed while exercising in the
court yard he picked it up when the
vigilance of his guard was relaxed
and concealed it until he returned to
the prison hospital but ne steadfsstly
refused to answer questions. The
prison authorities believe if he had
intended to kill himself, he would
have inflicted the wound elsewhere
than on his chest. The injury is not
serious.
