Shortly after he had told his wife lie
thought he would be better off dead. Rev.
3vm Tisl.M, pastor cT ths Esratcsa
CpncreKatlonal church, slashed himself
' across the throat with a rasor at his
home. 2749 Meredith avenue, about 2
o'clock Friday afternoon. He was taken
to the wdlsb Memorial hospital and pro
nounced to have a chance for recovery.
, Mr. FUher had just returned from a vaca- ,
Atlantic, la., and la said to have been
seriously 111 from nervous breakdown for
titles weeks. Members of the man's family
and his friends declare his suicidal at
tempt was clearly ths result of mental
derangement. . .
Ths clergyman went upstairs into a bed
room and locked the door to carry out his
attempt at solf-destructlon. He was kneel
ing before a mirror as he drew the rasor
across his throat. Mrs. Fisher heard a noise
in the room and sent Walter Iqulst, a
neighbor . boy, to break In the room. He
entered with ths aid of a ladder from .the
outside.
Upon making the discovery the police
were called.
Mr. Fisher several times frightened his
wife and other members of the family dur
ing the morning by talking about the ad
visability of being dead. He had worked
bard In his church duties and Is thought
to have undermined his health.
Mr. FtKher was very prominent during
the street car strike last fall for his fiery
utterances to the strikers. On several 6o
caslons he counselled the use of forceful
means for the maintaining ot their rights.
He spoke of himself as a man who had
earned his living ss a laborer r for many
years and be strongly advocated the right
of labor to demand whatever It considered
Its due. He' has been In Qnialia fur only a
few years and was pastor of the Saratoga
congregational church.
It ts said a certain faction in Mr. Fish
er's congregation turned against him some
time ago and requested hint to resign.
This situation, caused the clergyman con
siderable worry, and is thought to have
beta partially responsible for his unbal
anced mental state.

who on Saturday evening was arrested at
Krug park for picking the pocket of
Charles Cutting, itu5 Not tu Niruiteeritu

Since the Grand Island convention the
Dahlman headquarters In the Omaha Na
tional bank building has begun to tske on
Indications of being busy. Chairman Flynn
of the democratic county committee and
Dan Horrlgan are perfecting their plans,
which were left somewhat In abeyance
pending the outcome cf the state conven
tion, '
Since Mayor Dahlman himself will not re
turn to Omaha again until primary day,
his lieutenants here must practically go it
alone. Circulars are being prepared which
will be generally circulated throughout the
state, and the democratic voters known
to be actively opposed to county option
will be urged to get busy to line up for the
Omaha mayor all who want a county
option law vetoed. It one should be passed.
The point will be emphasised that to de-
1 feat the proposed measure It will be as
necessary to vote for Dahlman as to vote
for legislative candidates a ho are opposed
to such a law.
"Bryan will soon take the stump and
then good-bye Bhallenberger," said Chair
man Flynn. "Dahlman Is out In the open,
and that counts with the American people
here as eUewhere. Straddlers are not popu
lar with democrats."
K0UNTZE HOME TO BE USED

James I. Kngllsh, Actios for Bishop
Scaonell, Pnta the Deed oa
Record.
The old Kountse home on South Ninth
street was transferred Thursday afternoon
to Richard Scannell, bishop of ths Cathollo

pital. The deed was recorded by James P. Eng
liuh, county attorney, acting for the bishop,
and the consideration stated in the deed
.was $30,600.
This property, which consists of the large
home used for so many years by Herman
Kountze and the surrounding ground, will
be turned over at once to the Sisters of
Mercy.
When The Bee announced some time ago
that Bishop Scannell, acting Jointly with
Mrs. K. W. Nash, was negotiating for the
purchase of the property. Bishop Scannull
confirmed the report and said that It would
be turned over to one of ths societies ot
the church, but that It had not beeri de
cided what society would take charge of the
property. .

BIG SALE OF RAILROAD STOCK
English Syndicate Acquires Share in
Rock Island Holdings.
HAVE NO UNIVERSAL PLAN
Purchasers Will Shelve Scheme of
the New Trenscoatlnental Rati
way System for the
Preseat.
NEW TOnK, July 29. Now that the sale
of the so-called Pearson holding In Rock
Island, Lehiffh Vt!!cy, Wshnxh, Mlseouri
Paclflo and Denver & Rio Grande stock is
confirmed. Wall street was asking today
what the Kuhn-Loeb syndicate, the pur
chasers, propose to do with the securities.
Dr. F. D, Pearson and bis British asso
ciates acquired the stock late In 1908 and
early in 1910, with ths dream of a vast
transcontinental system. This plan must
now be abandoned, temporarily at least,
but opinion Is divided as to whether It
will be revived under new and more power
ful guidance. One member of the pur
chasing syndicate and positively this af
ternoon that. "We have no plans for a new
transcontinental railway system, and the
purchase does not embrace control ot any
of the properties whose stocks have been
acquired. '
To Save Market Situation.
On the other hand, another banker con-I
cemcd said that Dr. Pearson's project
would be shelved only for the time being.
While the primary object ot taking over
the holdings, he said, was ta.save the awk
ward market situation, yet he was of the
opinion that Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and their
friends, Including some of the most Impor
tant banking interests in Germany, would
seok to carry out the Idea too big for the
Pearson group to swing.
Notwithstanding the sale there Is appar
ently no disposition on ths part of ths
bankers' syndicate to dispense with the
services of Dr. Pearson and his English
associate, Perclval Farquhar, both ot whom
are likely to rental directors of the railway
companies concerned as heretofore.
The members of the American syndicate,
acting with Kuhn, Loeb A Co., Include tho
First National bank, a Morgan institution,
but the Morgan banking hune Itself, It
Is emphatically declared, la -In no way a
party to the syndicate. It Is believed,
however, that the Kuhn-Loeb syndicate
will ere long sell to J. P. Morgan tc Co.,
Its newly acquired Lehigh Valley holdings
so that the road will remain In the hands
ot ths Drexel-Morgan Interests, where It
has always been.

city, la seriously HI at the Hotel Wolcott.
Physicians are in constant attendance. The
nature of the Illness has not been made
public.
CINCINNATI, July 29. Percy Proctor,
member of the wealthy Clnolnnatl family,
appeared suddenly In court here today and
faoed his wife, the former Baroness Nadine
Von Kllffusa, for the first time In many
months. Upon his failure to recognize her,
his wife promptly swooned.
Proctor Instituted the case In which he
testified today, to stop the transfer of
140,000 worth of stock which his wife claims
was given to her In furtherance of a mar
riage contract made In Berlin before the
American consul.
By this agreement, which Proctor ac
knowledged, he was to settle upon her
200,000 francs, the marriage to take plaoe
when she had succeeded in divorcing the
Baron Von Kilffuss. Shortly thereafter,
however, the baron died.
Proctor, upon taking the stand In his own
behalf, acknowledged ths genuineness of
the contract and said that ha gave a note
for 140,000 In fulfillment. Her family asked
for "something tangible," he said, so he
put up the stock as "collateral," and the
marriage took place In London, October 1,
1909.
'It was understood that title to the stock
was to remain In my name and that my
wife was only to have the Income from
It," he testified.
Proctor, under oath, then charged the
former baroness and Joseph Da Wyckoff, a
solicitor of London, with being parties to
a conspiracy to obtain not only the stock
lit question but also all the money possible
to be obtained from him.
Court adjourned with Proctor still on the
stand.
Upon leaving the court room Proctor and
his wife wers followed by curious specta
tors, many of whom elbowed tbeir way
close to the couple as they walked down the
street, Mrs. Proctor pleading with her hus
band In French.
The fact that Proctor had appeared In
court had been advertised by the newspa
pers, and In anticipation of his testimony
the room was Jammed by men and women
curious to hear the 66-year-old bridegroom
tell of his Infelicities.
Part of the testimony is In tho form of
depositions, taken In London and containing
Wyckoffs version of the affair. Ths Lon
doner claims that he was to receive 16,000
as a fee from Mme. Von Kllffus when she
became Mrs. Proctor.

Representative Gov-
ernmestt.
PHILADELPHIA, July 29. William H.
Berry of Delaware county, for governor;
N. Clarence Olbboney of Philadelphia, for
Ueuloiiant governor; Cornelius D. Scully cf
Allegheny- county, for treasurer, and John
Casey of Lucerne county, for secretary ot
Internal affairs, Is the ticket nominated by
the keystone party, formed here today to
oppose ths nominees of both, ths repub
lican and democratic parties.
Tbs convention, composed of 117 delegates 1
from fifty-two counties In this state, de
nounced both the old parties as being un
der tho domination of the liquor Industries.

elected by the combined democratic, prohi
bition and independent votes In 1905. While
In office hs uncovered the capital scandal.
Defeated for Governor.
In the recent democratic state convention
he was defeated for the nomination for
governor, but received iw votes. Many
democrat lo delegates subsequently bolted
their party and took part la tqdoy's con
vention. The name ot keystone was adopted by
the convention as the party name.
The preamble to the platform adopted by
tho Independents begins with the following
language; ,
"Pennuylvanians are face to face with
necessity for desperate battle for the pres
ervation of representative free government
"A political trust, managed by cunning
politicians, threatens the commonwealth.
"Some ot the conspirators are labeled re
publicans and some democrats, but they
are all In league against the people and
act In harmony with one treasonable pur
pose and under the orders of one bead.
"Their power Is based upon the Illegal
and unwarranted use of publlo property
and office; upon force, fraud and eleotlon
crimes.
"Police-protected dens of vice are made
to furnish enough Illegal votes to over
whelm respectable citizenship."
