from Alexander here tonight in which
the latter said he was going 10 blow
out his brains. A civilian on the same
ship, which reached Baltimore Harbor
this afternoon. received letter from
Alexander I'm which he made the same
threat. He said he and Louise sent
regards.
Another thing that was developed
here was the fact that, whether or
not the couple were married they had
tried honestly on several occasions to
wed. This was vouched for by Lieu
tenant Cotton.
Two weeks ago last Saturday, said
Lieutenant Cotton. Alexander got per-
mission to go ashore in New York,
