AGED man ENDS
LIFE BECAUSE
OF ILL-HEALTH
Christopher Anderson Turns on
Gas a. His HOme-Hero Son
Had Returned Yesterday.

Dependency over i'll health and
fear that he would have to become
a patient in the hospital, are be-
lieved to have been the causes
which prompted Christopher An
derson, aged 6S, 41611 Fifth street,
to take his own life His body was
in the bedroom at his home by his
son, Ernest Anderson. 412 Sixth
street. The old man had ended his
life by gas poisoning.
The suicide victim had been af-
fiicted with a case of chronic hic-
coughs for the past Is or Is years,
an unusual ailment, and despite the
best medical attention. he could OBJ
tain no relief. In the last three or
four years he had failed rapidly,
and the fact that his attending ply
stefan had told him only recently
that he would have to enter a hos
him to the extent of ending it all.
He had lived alone in the up
stairs rooms at 4161a Fifth street
for several years. Each morning
it had been the custom of his son,
Ernest, to step in and chat with
him. The son went to the rooms
this morning as usual and found
the door locked, although it was
the custom of his father to rise
early. Upon receiving no response
to his knocking, he forced his en-
trance. He went to his fathers
bedroom and found the lifeless body
in the gas filled room.
Only yesterday Elmer Anderson.
another son, reached home on a 10
day furlough after an absence of
nearly two years during which time
he sacrificed an arm and leg in the
cause of democracy. A patient in
the hospital at Fort Des Moines. he
was overjoyed at being permitted
to see his father again. even if but
a short stay, but his joy has gone
now. He was Frustrated when he
learned of his fathers deed.
Mr.. Anderson was born in Swe-
den in 1851. He came to this coun-
try with his wife, Anna>S. Ander-
son, when a young man. Mrs An
derson died June IA. 1913. Surviv-
ing are his two daughters and two
sons: Selma Meier of Webster City,
Iowa; Mrs. r. ]. Gossman, 612

MAYOR SIGNS
RESOLUTION
TO AID JEWS
Is Protest Against the Massacres
Which are Occurring in Pol
and and Rumania.

That the city commission is unani-
mouSly in accord with the jewish
people of this city in their protest
against the massacres that are &C
curing to the Jewish people in diff
ferent parts of Poland and Ru-
mania, is apparent from the reso-
luton which they adopted at d
special meeting held yesterday IN
the city hall. Immediately follow
ing the protest parade which was
held by the representative Jewish
people here Monady, special COM
mittee of Jewish people presented
request to the city commission
that the latter aid in the fight to
stop the massacres and the resou-
ton which was framed yesterday
will be presented through the regu-
lar channels, to President Woodrow
Wilson. The resolution is as roll
lows:
Whereas, it has come to our
knowledge through sources that are
unquestionable that many people of
the Jewish faith, including men,
women and children, have recently
in different parts of Poland and
Rumania. been subjected to
massacres, cruel torture, personal
violence and pillage, in some IN
stances by and with the consent of
the constituted authorities and in
other instances by reason of the
neglect of said authorities to pro-
tect their citizens and their disin-
clination to interfere with the
various mobs in their murderous
designs,
And, whereas, we deplore the
fact that such a situation can exist
in the present stage of Goth century
civilization,
And, whereas, hundreds of thou
sands of American boys without re-
gard to race, color or religion
fought, bled and died that the iron
heel of oppression might be remov-
ed from the Polish and Rumanlan
people, who are now startling the
world with atrocities committed by
their people.
Therefore, be it resolved by the
city council of the City of Rock Is
land, Illinois, in meeting assembled,
that we solemnly and seriously pro-
test against said massacre, vio-
Ience and lawlessnes. and
Be itfurther resolved, that we ask
the government of the United

QUICK POLICE
WORK RESULTS
IN HIS ARREST

That one of the most desperate
criminals who ever entered the city
was apprehended yesterday with
the arrest of Colas Smith, murder
er of Oscar Davenport, is the belief
of the local police and the latter
are to be congratulated on the
quick work of Chief Cox and De-
tectives Sehnert and Bennett
That George Stewart, colored,
who was driving his auto on
Eleventh street when Smith fled
south on Tenth street and subse-
quently requested him to drive to
the Watch Tower, was a badly
frightened man, is apparent from
the statement he made to the police
this morning.

man and is capable of killing any

USES MATERIAL
OF AN INFERIOR
GRADE; PROTESTS

Building Inspector John Lindros
protested to the city commission
late today that a certain well known
contractor in this city has been
using an inferior grade of material
in all of his construction work,
with the result that many COM
plants have been registered during
the past week by property owners.
Mr.. Lindros claims that the mate
rial used in the foundations has
been of such an inferior grade that
repair is almost Immediately nee
eSsary.
Inasmuch as the contractor in
question confines his work to the
erection of dwellings it is thought
the city commission, If the protest
is sustained, will refuse to issue
building permits.

CREATES FUND
Sum Set Aside WIN be Used as a
Nucleus for any Emergency
Which May Arise.

AS a nucleus to the police PEN
sion board fund, the sum of $4,-
940.S4 was set aside by the board at
it's regular meeting yesterday in
the city hall, the money to be de-
rived from a portion of the general

will be taken in the near future.
Chief Tom Cox said today: This
money will be used as purely an
emergency fund and it is to be in
creased in the near future. The
board is not able to state at the

TELLS HOW WAR
LOOKED TO MAN
IN MEDIC CORPS
DIR. d. b. Freeman Of Moline Paints
Lights and Shadows Before
Tri-City Press Club.

A closeup on actual war condi-
tions from the medical mans point
of view was given members of the
Tri-City Press club last evening by
Lieutenant David B. Freeman of
Moline. The meeting was held at
the Manufacturers hotel.
Lieutenant Freeman was bat
talon surgeon with the Three Hun
dred Fifth infantry in the Seventy
seventh division. The Seventy
seventh IVES composed of New York
National guardsmen. It did more
fighting, took more ground and lost
more men than any other division
in the Argonne offensive, which was
the big effort the Americans made
during the war. The l.eutenant's
duties took him up with the front
line throughout the fighting and he
has a story of absorbing interest.
1t was the doughboy who won
the war, the speaker said. He did
the heavy part of the fighting and
suffered 80 per cent of the casual
ties. Most Of the wounds were
made by. machine gun bullets and
as a rule they were in the legs or
lower part of the body. If they
did not strike a bone or a vital
part they were easy to treat.
Shrapnel made the worst wounds,
for they were invariably lacerated
and always infected. Experience
with men who had been gassed
were related.
That the charge often made th.t
shell shock is usually an evidence
of the yellows was emphatically
refuted by the lieutenant, who said
he had seen many cases of II and
has watched number of them de-
velop Every man has his limits.
That seems to be his sole thought.
He wants quiet and he will run
away, crawl in a hole, or do any
thing else that seems to offer relief.
Trench feet are caused by damp
ness and filth. In the worst cases
the feet become tcongested and
stuff away, amputation being nee
essary.

Word of the death of John Camp
bell, 1912 Twenty-eighth street, this
city, at Portsmouth, N. H, which
was received by relatives yester-
day, was followed today by the re-
ceipt of a letter which he had writ
ten Sunday night, "a hours before
he died. He spoke in the letter of
having a pain in his chest. but that
the doctor attending him did not
tell him what the trouble was. He
was serving his 18th year in the
navy and had planned on retiring
from the service when his enlist
ment expired, seven months from
now. The family was expecting
word today from naval authorities
at Portsmouth relative to whether
or not the body was being shipped
to this city. Until word is had from
the east, arrangements for the fu-
neral will be delayed.
