Ei.-InspHCior Gnneral of Polica

shooting himself. lie was
proud man, exceedingly reseiv -

Bmile and very ambitiousbitj
rise from a' humble posiiioii
through varions posts to the"
command of the police force
being sufficiently lapid to at
- , - i
tract aiientioo to him as a man
of great talent.
Since ahe alleged lynching
plot vas exposed and he, with
oilier officials of the police
force, was imprisoned, he ha?
shown a marked changed, be
ing extremely reticent and evi
dently suffering from infuse
nervous strain He was sobject
ed yesterday to a long examm
ation by Judge Flores, and at
the conclusion of that ordeal,
on his return to his room in
prison, it was noted) bit he
I showed great deiection and
anguish oj" mind. He had al
wa'8 been .11 the habit of reiii
ing late and in prison kept up
his custom, rising about 10
o1- lock, except when his pres
ence was required by the judge.
Lust uierhl he-Tetirea late and
at 11 o'clock thi& morning the
warden of the priaonl wt-nt to
call him. Tbfc warden went to
the bedside of Telazquez and
said in a friendly lone, as be
knew the prisoner well: "Come,
my boy, it's time to get up; the
judge wants 3rou."
Receiving no answer he
began to bhake him, saying:
'Don't be lazy,3 when he noted
that Velazquez had a bullet
wound in the right temple, and
on investigating further found
a small two-barreled pistol
with which the act had been
committed. Ttie weapon was a
small one, and the uuzzle had
beeu placed so close to the
templo and pressed into the
skin that practically it made
I no noise on bein discharged
hence the reason of no, report
being heard by the guards.
How the pistol reached - the
prisoner is under investigation.

of the suicide and summoned
?ndge FlQres Jifchat he
had given the strictest?-orders,
foreseeing that Velasqnez might
attempt suicide, that he be
carefully watched and every
precaution taken to keep the
weapons from him. At first
the authorities were inclined
to censure Colonel Campuano,
the warden.
During the after ndbn rela
tives of the dead man were als
lowed to enter the prison,
which had been closed to the
public. The doctors had con
cluded, the examination and'
had fofcnd that death must
have been- instantaneous. The
bullet was imbedded in the
brain
Judging, by the teuipe-
jratnre of the stomach, thepjn7
Isicians came to the conclusion
that the act must have been
1 COniruitted about half past 9
o clocc tms morn ng. Veias
vuez had supped very lightly,
and the remains of his repast
were on the table by his side.
The body was then dressed and
deiivei?d to relatives.g r .
f A letter was found in fhe
room in which Velatquez made
his statement to the public,
saying his death was,- he fel
the satisfaction he owed to so
ciety, and he should, therefore,
give that satisfaction by leav
ing the world. He also said
that the crime was suggested
to him by Inspector Yillavi
cencio of the Second police dis
trict, who is in prison. Velas
quez added that under any
other circumstances, not hav
ing been in high official author
iiy, nothing could have induc
ed him to .take part in the
crime. He felt, it is said, that
his loyally to the chief magis
trate, whose life had been at
tempted, demanded that he
should put Arroyo to death.
In fact, he said this repeatedly
on being questioned.
It is generally felt by his I
friends that Villaviceneio was
his evil star, having from the
time Yelasquez became chief
of police gaiued a rejnarkable
iuilneuce over him, although
he was warned by those who
had his welfare at heart to be
ware of the man.
Velasquez had a veiy large
acquaintance, having been em
ployed after leaving: college in
the department of finance, and
was secretary to the finance
minister. At one time he was
connected with the newspaper
El Com bate, and had at an
early age been elected to con
gress He bad effected many
reforms during-his incumbency
as inspector. S

ine rever situation m inis
city has not improved in the
past twehtv-four hours. Th
record for that period is ten
new cases and four death's,
duplicating the record of yes

hot done much other than in-creasinp-
the death rate, ,the
percentage up to date, as com-4the

1 per cent. lfns is not exces-4

outbreaks, but in view of tne.
mildness of the fever it would
seem to Indicate that the feves
is not so mild after all.
Mobile's record for todav is
three new cases and three-
deaths; that of Edwards, Miss.,
thirty new cases, and that of
Biloxi fifteen. withvno deaths.
There has been a great deal
of excitement in this city over
the burning of a portion of the
Beauregard public school by a
number ot lawless residents
of the Third and Fourth wards
of the city because the health
authorities selected the build
ing as die location of a tempo
rary hospital for the treatment
of the indigent fever patients.
'Hie mayor expressed himself
forcibly on the matter today.
He said that the school should
be used as hospital, and that,;
he would have the leaders of
the ircendiary mob imprison
ed. The stand bf the mayor
is applauded generally. It
was feared that 'trouble would
have ensued tonightfbu"t no
demonstration was made and
the damaged buildings is now
in the hands of the Charily7
hospital authorities.
Freights are now being ship
ped out of the city after disin
fection by the United. States
authorities. The present quar1
antine panics of the- country
generally are condemned be
cause of the fact that there is
no possibility of infection by
the transmission bf j certain
classes of freights, and Un:ted
states officials are striving
earnestly to lessen tlfdKanl

infecting freights anH giving
