Death.
Made desperate by long illness. Nelson
Robertson, 50 years ola, took his own
life at his home, 1401 Chicago avenue,
last night, by drinking carbolic acid.
Robertson had been watched care
fully for some time by his wife, who
feared that he would take poison. Last
evening Robertson went to the wood
shed and his wife followed a moment
later, but was too late to save his life.
When she entered the shed he was
lying on the floor and the empty bot
tle was close by him. He was still
alive, and' Mrs. Robertson hastened to
summon a physician, who worked over
the dying man for some time. All ef
forts to save him were fruitless, how
ever, and he died in great agony.
Until recently, Robertson waB em
ployed as foreman in a stone quarry on
the East Side. His lllneBS prevented
him from working steadily and this
fact worried him.
Fails in Suicide Attempt.
Unable to obtain work, Ernest Dahl

night by slashing his throat with a

Other roomers heard his groans and

self-inflicted wound was not deep and
he will be able to leave the hospital in

COMMANDER OF G. A. R. HAD PRE-
MONITION OF PERIL.
Death of Mrs. Tanner in Automobile
Accident in Helena Friday Recalls
Her Husband's Admission of Super
stitious Fear Lest Danger Result
Should He Ride in Motor Oar.
PREMONITION OF DISASTER
Mrs. Tanner, wife of "Corporal''
James Tanner, commander-in-chief
of the Q. A. R., was killed yesterday
In an automobile accident In Helena,
Monti.
While In Minneapolis Monday,
Commander Tanner expressed a con
viction, which he acknowledged was
superstition, that he was fated to
"bring bad luck" whenever he en
tered an automobile.
S
b-
I have seldom ridden in an automo
bile when an accident did not happen,
and altho I know that it is superstition,
I am firmly convinced that when I en
ter an automobile 1 bring bad luck."
This statement, made repeatedly by
"Corporal" James Tanner, commander
in-chief of the G. A. R., during hid visit
to Minneapolis lasl Monday, followed
within five days by the death of Mrs.
Tanner in a Helena automobile acci
dent, has led. Minneapolis friends o
the Tanners to believe that "Corporal"
Tanner had a premonition of yester
day's disaster.
The well-known aversion of Corporal
Tanner to automobiles is considered a
remarkable coincidence by Grand Army
men who were shocked to learn of Mrs.
Tanner's death. Mingled with expres
sions of sorrow fox Commander Tanner
are words of wonder that.the wife of
the commander should have been killed
in an automobile accident.
At the West hotel Monday morning
S. H. Towler, junior vice commander
of the G. A. R., invited Corporal Tan
ner and his wife to go man automobile
over the proposed line of march for
nei said: "W will go, but I want
to wain you now that something will
happen to the machine. I have seldom
taken an automobile trip when some ac
cident aid not occur, and I will admit
I am growing superstitions about it.
During this trip I have hoodooed at
three automobiles in which I have
ridden.''
Oontimixnfr, Commander Tanner told
of several incidents illustrating his be
lief that he brought bad luck to auto
mobiles which lie rode. Before start
ing on the ride he wagered a box of
cigars with General Towler that some
thing would go wrong. Nothing hap
pened, Monday, but he said he was not
yet convinced.
Last evening at the. Nicollet hotel
Towler and other Grand Army men met
informally Towler produced the cijsara
won from Commander Tanner and told
the story of tho wager. None of the
party was informed of the accident un
til early today, and the commander's
superstition in regard to automobiles
was commented upon by all present.
Messages from Comrades.
Many messages of condolence were
sent to Commander Tanner by his
Minneapolis comrades today. Not only
did his, personal friends in the city
send messages, but William H. Kelh
her. commander of John A. Rawlins
sent the following message to
orporal Tanner at Helena:
"May God, in his infinite mercy,
uphold you and give you strength to
bear the greatest bereavement that
comes to man, the loss of a devoted
Wife, 18 the earnest prayer of the mem
bers of John A. Rawlins post. No. 126,
G. A. Minneapolis, Minn.''
A telegram received by Judge Col
lins from Corporal Tanner today an
nounces that he will pass thru Minne
apolis, the way Washington with
the body of Mrs. Tanner, early Mon
day morning.
MBS. ^TANNER r7TTJJRT
Wife of G. A. B. Commander the Vic
tim of Auto Accident.
Helena, Mont., June 30.The visit to
Helena of James Tanner, commander
in-chief of the G. A. R., came to a
tragic close late yesterday afternoon,
when his wife was killed b^ the upset
ting of an automobile in which she was
returning with her distinguished hus
band to the city from Fort William
Henry Harrison.
Commander Tanner, Colonel Lester
Wilson,and the chauffeur of the ma
chine which upset escaped unin-jured.
It appears that the automobile bearing
the Tanner party was in the lead of
three big machines that had been used
in visiting the capitol, the Broadwater
hotel and Fort Harrison. In the other
machines were Department Commander
A. J. Fish, Past Department Com
manders Blake and Sterling, and other
veterans and some ladies.
The leading machine undertook to
pass two loaded ice wagons going in
the same direction, which it overtook
on a short piece of grade about ten
feet high between the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific sidings.
The grade is partly of "made"
ground, and as the automobile skimmed
along the edge the ground collapsed
and in an instant the machine was
sliding down the "grade. It toppled
over and the rear seat struck a tele
graph pole. This circumstance prob
ably saved the lives of all but Mrs.
Tanner.
Mrs. Tanner was hurled from the
machine with greater force than were
the others, for she lay unconscious upon
the ground, groaning in pain. Women
from the other automobiles came to the
rescue and joined Corporal Tanner in
efforts revive her One of" the auto
mobiles wus dispatched to town for
medical assistance.
In about twenty minutes Dr. William
Tracy arrived with an ambulance and
Mrs. Tftnner, who was then uncon
scious, was hurried into the city. She
died before reaching St. John's hos
pital. Dr. Tracy found her left arm
and said she had probably
died from the effects of the shock, as
she was nearly 70 years old.
The scene at the hospital when Cor
poral Tanner was told that his wife
was dead was most distressing, the vet
eran of many battles broke down com
pletely. Finally he was prevailed upon
to return his hotel and the li6"cl
was removed to an undertaker's rooms
to'be prepared for shipment.
Mr. Tanner left for Washington this
afternoon, accompanying the body. He
intended to leave this morning for
Butte and other points a far -west a
Portland, but the aecident Ms. of
course, changed all Ms plans.

Every nominee on the republican
state ticket, excepting Senator Knute
Nelson and Chief Justice Start, got to
gether at 2 o'clock this afternoon in
the rooms of A. L. Cole at the Ryan
hotel, St. Paul. The meeting was for
the purpose of coming to a final de
cision on the makeup of the republican
state central committee. W. W. Siv-the
right of Hutchinson, who presided over
the Duluth convention, was also pres
ent. The duty of naming the commit
tee rests with him, in consultation with
the candidates, and the largest voice
in the matter iB left to the nominee
for governor.
The Journal's forecast of yester
day holds good today, and Senator R.
E. Thompson of Preston seems certain
to be named chairman of the commit
tee. Senator A. B. Cole of Fergus Falls
will be closely associated with the con
duct of the campaign, probably as
chairman of the executive committee.
The Minneapolis members will include
W. W. Heffelfinger, W. H. Grimshaw,
George L. Matchan, and two or three
others whose names had not been defin
itely determined on before the meeting
convened. W. Webster will prob
ably be the St. Paul member of the
executive committee. C. H. Warner of
Aitkin will be on the committee, and
is likely to be secretary. Each of the
candidates, aside from Mr. Cole, will
name one personal choice on the com
mittee.
The candidates got together this
morning to quite an extent, and there
was every indication of a harmonious
settlement of the vexing problem,
which has been uppermost on their
minds since June 13.
