BIGAMIST GIVES UP
After Turning Over Pistol Goes to
Baltimore and Faces Charge?Mar
ried Second Wife Last Week.
*t An ex-soldier haurttekl ,by the dis
grace of facing a charge of bigamy
?in B61tarivore yesterday morning met
JCapltain J. D. Hellwege, of the Sal
ivation Army here, and unburdened
'his troubles to iCapt. Hellwege. He
.told the cpptain that he contem
plated going to the corner of King
'and Pitt streets and blowing out
his brains. The stranger produced
(a ipisitol fully loaded arid .twelve
icartridjges, explaining .'that he could
not afford to disgrace his mother
?by facing such a charge.
iCapt. Hellwege reasoned with the
inain, a nafive of Michigan, twe'nty
twk> ye&rs old, and before long had
him in the hall of the Salvation
lArrtfy where he professed conver
sion and left the hall apparently
happy saying that he intended to go
at once to Baltimore and face the
charge and pay ?t'he penalty and
henceforth lead &? new life.
ICapt. and Mrs. Hellwege kept the
pistol as a reminder of the remark
able conversation of the man who
was c*n the ibrink of self destruction
arid who turned over a new leaf at?
the psychological moment.

him. A fqw minutes later "Moerdyk

"Every hcuT after my miarriage tc
Miss Pau3 I thouigiht of the telegram
sent me by my: wife in the West, and
on Saturday, after realizing what
wrong I had done," I decided to end
my life. Both of the women I married
are good women and I have wronged
both. I bought a pistol Saturday and
went away from the city, intending to
kill myself.
'I got as far as Alexandria, Va.,
where I stopped a few minutes to lis
ten to a service conducted, by the Sal
vation Army. After the meeting was
over I went to the Salvation Army
captain and told him that I had in
tended to kill myself. He asked me
my trouble and I told him. He asked
me for the pistol and; t gave it to him
He told me to come back to Balti

President Wiilson had a very good
night Saturday "and if there is any
change in his condition,'' it is favor
able, said a bulletin issued by Rear
Admiral Grayson, his physician at 11
o'clock yesterday. The bulletin said.
"The President had a good night,
and if there is any change in his con
dition it is favorable. His appetite is
improving and he is sleeping better."
President Wilscn last night spent
the most comfortable night since he
was taken ill, according to informa

this morning.
There were no indications thai
the sHght improvement previously re

the extreme conservatism in the tone
of statements of Dr. Cary T. Gray

the belief that the improvement was
r.ot great
Grayson repeated informally that
he was not yet reacy to pronouncr
the President's turn for the better
as decisive, although his condition
was considered better than at any
time since his illness became acute.
