J Edward Scott, Owner of Island . Tries Suicide Attempts to End Life at Home of His Wife in Omaha Despond ency Is Cause. From Tuesday s Daily . Edward L. Scott, who several months ago purchased the "Speck's Island" southeast of this city, yester day attempted to end his life at the garage at the home of his wife, 3211 Cass street, Omaha. He fired three bullets from a revolver at his temple i nel when this attempt at suicide failed, cut his left wrist and left leg with a pocket knife. Mr. Scott had written a letter to his wife and then walked to the garage where he at tempted suicide. He lay in the garage all day Mon day and until 1 a .ni today, when ho apparently recovered consciousness and walked to the front door of the home and asked his son-in-law, W. A. Yager, to let him in the house. "My head is hurting me," he told Yager, and Yager switched on a light to find a headache tablet. When he saw Scott, face and clothing matted with blood, he called police. Scot was taken to Lord Lister hospital where attendants said he probably will recover. Not Seriously Hurt. The bullets had all glanced off the skull, and apart from tearing a path across Scott's forehead, had not in jured him seriously, attendants stated. Jagged wounds in his arm and leg had not been deep enough tc cut any arteries, they added. Examination of the weapon which Scott used indicated that he had tried both remaining cartridges in the revolver, but they had failed to explode. He had even taken them out of the gun and changed their position in the firming chamber sc that the firing pin would strike on a different spot on the cap. Both cart ridges again failed to explode, and Scott then slashed his wrist and leg. Family Heard Shots. Scott, according to Mrs. W. A. Wager, a stepdaughter, left the home at 9 a. m. Monday saying that he was going to his farm on Scott's island, near Plattsmouth, to get a lot of cattle ready for the Omaha market. He left by the rear door. "I heard three shots a short time later but paid no attention, think ing that it was probably from the ex hause of an automobile," Mrs. Yager said. She remained at the home dur ing the day. Yager returned from work Monday night and after a short ride in their car, retired in the be lief that Scott was at his home near Plattsmouth. Scott, about six months ago, pur chased the island which comprises about five hundred acres. He plant ed crops and stocked the farm, but the Missouri river flood destroyed the crops and he was barely able to save the cattle. This loss had made him despondent, the Yagers stated.
