Tbe relative and friends of tbe man agreed
that an official Investigation was unneces
sary, all admitting that tbe death was a
case of premeditated suicide. It was learned
here tonight that several members of tb
David family, although a few generations
removed, had committed suicide for vari
lou reasons. Mr. David's connection with
tbe Lincoln Paint A Color company, as
Its president, was found today in satisfac
tory condition. He bad an abundance of
property clear of encumbrance.
Tbe fire loss sustained by the Second
Presbyterian church Sunday morning is

Insured for $6,500. Plans have already
been accepted for a new building, which
will cost about S15.0O0.

Beard Seek ta Delay Trial.
AI Beard, the man accused of tbe mur
der of John J. Glllllan. is showing dogged
Indifference ta the charge hanging over
him. He baa been confined in a cell la the
city aU and seems anxious to delay bis
preliminary hearing a long as possible.
He was brought to Lincoln a month ago,
but has objected to an arraignment until
he can have his attorney, J. C. Burr, pres
ent. This afternoon Balrd was taken be
fore Justice Greene and his hearing set
for o'clock Monday morning. In tbe
meantime be will be confined la tbe county
Js 11. The police authorities feared he
might make an attempt to escape and for
that reason had blm taken to tbe county
Jail.
If tbe claims of the railroads for trans
porting the companies of tbe Nebraska Na
tional guard to and from the last en
campment are paid there will be lean than
S200 left la the fund for the support of the
brigade. The eppropiiatlon for office ex
penses Is apart from that for the support
of the troops. Under these conditions It
la not likely that an encampment will be
held this year, unless tbe congressional
hill providing funds for such encamp
ments la passed.
