THE LEADEN WEIGHT

Which. David P. Newell Put on Before Plunging Into the Eatery Depths.

Remarkable Suicide of the WellKnown West Side Real Estate Dealer.

TTis Last Letter to His Wife—A Case Manifestly of Insane Delusion.

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean. A peculiarly distressing tragedy, the result of mental aberration, must be chronicled this morning. A well-known W6st Side dealer in real estate is dead. There can be no notice of his funeral the shifting waves of the lakes have at once drowned and entombed him. The unfortunate gentleman was Mr. David P. Newell, office in the Cole building, corner of Halsted and Madison streets, and for years- among the foremost real estafe men of the city. His disappearance last Thursday, and his voluntary plunge to inevitable death, weighed down as he was by his own hand, arc the sequels of as strange and sad a delusion as ever clouded the brain of man.

In order that the catastrophe may receive what explanation it can, the premonitory signs of an hallucination which was to work so terrible a freak must be traced. The buried yet uncofflned man had very many friends, and some of these recall now a somewhat .unusual bearing at times on his part during the liist few days of his life, but the incidents were attributed at the time to nothing more than a natural disgust and disquiet over the continued low and unsettled prices of the market in which the deceased was most interested. The disorganization of his business, as is now apparent, was in-deed-telling upon him bv its anxious bur den, and, as the event showed, his mind was so eagerly revolving means and modes of reparation that it overreached itself, and gravely approved and ordered •on to execution a scheme the most

VISIONARY AND DEADLY

that ever floated across diseased fancy. However, it was only within the home circle that any peculiarity attracted more than passing surprise which a departure, liowever slight, from uniform habit in a man of mature life is calculated to arouse. 'Such small departures as unusual nervousness ami facial ruddiness are doubtless remembered by business friends and acquaintances only because of the startling death and but for revelations, which close inquiry from the bereaved ones of his household now disclose, the suicide •would seem as wrapt in mystery as it is in horror.

The light which the narrative of members of the family affords goes back 110 farther than last Wednesday. The widow of the deluded man, it is proper to state here, resides vith the five orphans at 408 West Monroe street. Before her marriage, sixteen years ago, she was Louise Cole, daughter of [David Cole, who, in his life, was a pioneer of Chicago, and a man widely respected. Of course the household is whelmed in "wretchedness, agd even the youngest child seems conscious of the removal of the uniformly devoted and kind father find husband. Untoward prospects on Madison street were never suffered to shadow the Monroe street home, and as business complications increased, so did the cheerfulness of the brave and manly provider of his family's wants. His former fine property, which had ycilded much more than a comfortable competence, was wasting gradually, through no inattention on his part, but through unrelenting eircumstauces but the undaunted man simply, redoubled his efforts. He would restore his fortune by some invention that at one turn should bring back all the old comforts to loved ones. By night and day the as yet unwearied brain pondered divers mechanisms. The instincts of true wifehood

COULD NOT BE BLINDED,

and Mrs. Newell, a lady of equal discernment and culture, would have gladly come to her husband's help by disposing of property which she had inherited from her father. But a provision of the will prevented any sale of the lands until she was 35 years of ajje, and the wife and mother had leen waiting with a poor patience the expiration of. the last twelvemonth. But her expressed purpose was destined to be futile, at least as regarded any relief to her anxious husband.

As the first premonition of the sorrow •which has now closed the stricken household to all but family and relatives, the lady recalls a circumstance on last "Wednesday noon. He came home to •dinner as* usual on that dav, when she noticed that his face was flushed, and he seemed more wearied than he had been for some time. Questioned as to this, he remarked, with characteristic unselfishness, that he did not want her to be troubled, and finally refused to name any cause to admit that he was in any trouble. The family wanted some housebold necessaries from Madison street, and Mrs. Netfell was on the point of sending one of the children for' it .when Mr.

Newell suggested that he could go more quickly, and went.' He was a very long time gone, and when, on his return, Mrs. Newell asked him what had detained him, he said that he had wandered away over to the corner of May and Hubbard streets. When there he suddenly came to himself, and was so surprised that he had asked himself the question, "How on earth did come here He complained of fatigue and sat down in a chair, acting in a very dull manner, quite at variance with his usual habit, he playing with the •children as a rule during the dinner hour.

After he had gotten seated he twirled his hands together in a peculiar way, and at the same time fill expression faded out of his bright and vivacious face. His little daughter laughed at his appearance, and this drew attention of the mother more closejgrto him. when it became apparent that he had lapsed info unconsciousness. She immediately got a handkerchief and cold water an3 bathed his head, when he suddenly gave a long sigh and expressed deep pleasure at the sensation which the cold water produced. He regained at once his usual vivacity, asked briskly how long he had been in the house, and wanted to know if the dinner

was not ready. He then made 8 very

.. 'V

hearty meal and departed, apparently in imsual health and spirits. On returning home that evening

HE

WAS ENTIRELY HIMSELF,

*nd on Thursday morning he went to work in seeming good health. At noon he came home to dinner, still acting and looking natural, and played with the children as usual. In reply to his wife's question how he felt, he said: "My head troubles me it has a dull feeling." She advised him to get a lighter hat, and not to walk in the hot sun, but to ride down town instead, as the warm weather, she feared, was not agreeing with him. He promised oompliance and, after finishing his dinner, kissed his little daughter Fannie and his wife, there being nothing in his manner to suggest that he had anything on his mind of an extraordinary character. Then he went forth from the house—for the last time

Supper time came, and Thursday evening was considerably advanced, and then the wife'# instinctive misgivings deepened into anxiety. She feared he might have had a relapse into the trouble already referred to, and would perhaps meet with some accident. Her feelings turned to alarm when, at 8 o'clock in the evening, a messenger boy entered the gate with a letter addressed to her in her husband's handwriting, and also bearing on the envelope the words, "Not to be delivered until 8 P. M. The missive was at once torn open, and the fact that the wretched woman swooned away before she could finish the perusal is explained by the following

TKA^SCIlIPTrON OF THE LETTER: "THEMONT^IOUSE,

CHICAGO, June 21, 1880:

"MY DEAR WIFE: I have finally struck some thing that will bring in money, and, I hope, happiness to all of us. I have invented a life-preserver on an entirely new principle, and am so sanguine as to its resesults that I am going to try it to-night-I find that it is a fallacy that cork or any wood which absorbs water is lighter than lead. Lead does not displace as much water, but when submerged, I find it has three times the lifting power of cork. I

have col some lead cut in strips three quarters of sm inch wide, and can nlake a jacket of it for $2.50 that any one can float in for days and days. Everybody has always said because lead was in air heavier than cork that it would be in water, but I have three times tried it, and find lead in water will in proportion to its weight float ten times its weight in cork. Cork costs fifty cents per pound, lead six cents, and I can put life preservers on all boats, ships, and steamboats in the world at half price. I am sure of $100,000 tomorrow. I will 'go out to-night on a Goodrich steamer, and I will be 4ack by Si a. m., and show everybody that they can make lead float as well or better than cork "The result will be that when I come in to-morrow I can sell the right for $100,000 and get rid of all trouble I am in. I will leave my clothes in the boat, watch, money, etc., for fear I may have the lake to cross, but,«the way the wind looks now I can get home by 12m., as I shall not go more than forty miles out, and, if the wind is right, with mv armor I can get iu, in two hours. I will get rid of my debts and fit you and the children out nicely on what I can get when I get in town to-morrow. Don't worry. Your affectionate HUBBY."

The amazed and agonized wife, when •she could sufficiently control herself, sent a note to the Tremont House begging her husband not to go off on his proposed voyage. She hoped it might possibly reach him and save him. Then she drove with all haste to the Goodrich steamer landing, when her heart sank at heading that

THE BOAT HAD LEFT THE DOCK at 7 p. m. It at once flashed across her mind that the instruction upon the envelope was intended, as undoubtedly it must have been, to prevent the possibility of her learning of his intended departure in time to prevent it. The frantic wife expressed lie intention of chartering a tug and sending it off after the steamer, but it was shown that the passenger steamer, having two hours start could not be overtaken, and she reluctantly yielded to the necessity of returning hoii& and awaiting the developements of time. There was no sleep for her that night, nothing but distracted and futile planning how the terrible blow might be parried. Friday morning she telegraphed to the captains of both the Goodrich boats, one of whom replied that he knew nothing whatever concerning the gentleman inquired for, while from the other came the following: "MUSKEGON, June 25,— "Mrs. D. P. Newell:

Mr. Newell was a passenger to Grand Haven. No particulars. I. A. SMALLMAX.

1

"Captain steamer Muskegon."

During tli, rooL of the day diligent in quiry was made among the friends of Mr. Newell, but it could not be discovered that he had even taken any one into his confidence regarding the newly invented life-preserver. At night, Mr. Cole, brother of Mrs. Newell, left on the boat for Grand Haven, and nothing was left the anxious wife but to wait for the return yesterday morning of the boat in which Mr. Newell had taken passage Thursday evening. The boat's time of arrival is 5:30 A. M„ and at 4 o'clock she started down, hoping that some favoring gale might bring the boat, with possibly some good news, to port earlier than usual. When the boat arrived at the usual hour Mrs. Newell called upon the Captain and showed him the letter which she ht^d received from her husband. The Captain read it, and stated that from what he saw of Mr. Newell while on board the boat he should judge nothing was further from his mind than the commission of the deed which the,letter stated he intended to accomplish. He was pleasant and calm in his demeanor, and retired to his state-room at the usual time. In the morning no one had qpticed him at the same time no one had missed him. This was the substance of his information, and, taken altogether, its nature was cheering to the wife in that it credited her husband with natural demeanor while on the boat.

Later in the morning, however, the capain returned to the house bearin eel, and

THE POOB WOMAN'S FEARS WERE CONFIRMED by the admission of the visibly moved old lake captain that he carried the clothes of the missing man. They had been found in his state-room. The parcel, on being opened, was found to contain everything as the letter had indicated, excepting shirt, boots, and socks. The pockets gave up to diligent search no

further clew to the man's fate, nor was any needed. Two peices of paper, which evidently had contained a parcel of some kind, were with the bundle, and these were closely scrutinized by the wife. One of them, white of color, was found to contain in a corner which lapped over somewhat a piece of cork of the kind used in fitting stems in pipe-bowls. The other, a brown paper, revealed to the in telligent glance of the woman whose whole soul was in her work certain bright circles, which, upon a close investigation, proved to be lead mark3. The supposition, at once arose that in the white paper had been wrapped up some

corks, possibly strung together, while the other paper, beyond a doubt, oontair the "lead jacket" referred to in the letter of the missing man.

Silently but conclusively these variouswitnesses bare the story of the trag edy, and if circurrfstantial evidence proves anything it establishes- the fact that Mr. Newell, with mind weakened by business strain, and possibly by intense heat, perished in the pu'rsuit of one of the most remarkable deceptions that ever spread its toils. As already stated, Mr. Newell was pondering some invention nearly all the while, and he had so far perfected several as to take out patents on them. There can be little doubt that the brain weakened with worry, became fully controlled by the conviction that the "lead jacket" was an invention destined to revolutionize the age and obliterate the perils of navigation. Its man ufacture was inexpensive and easy, and entirely satisfied of its functions, the wretched dupe triumphantly leaped from the steamtr into the water of the lake, and under the self-imposed drag of forty pounds' weight,

SUNK DOWN TO RISE NO mORE.

In his letter the man alluded to his jacket as costing $2.50, and to the price of leadt as cents per pound. This would make the weight of the jacket about as above stated—amply sufficient to keep the body down at a considerable depth. The only possibility of recovering the body would be by dragging, and when the extent of water to be covered and its depth be considered, such plan becomes impractic able.

The last person who saw Mr. Newell on the evening that he left the city was Mr Si Coan, the proprietor of the Tremont House billiard room. He and Mr. Newell often had a game of pool together, and Thursday evening the latter came in and took up a cue. Before doing so he laid down a couple of parcels he \Vas carrying. One of them, Mr. Boal says, was a white one, which he laid upon the window sill, just above the sofa-seat, to the south of the pool-table. Thfc other a brown parcel, he placed upon the floor beside it. While the game was in progress, Mr. Coan, happened to sit down, lifted up th white 'parcel and found that it was very light, giving him the idea that it contained an article of summer wearing apparel. The other parcel he did not touch. Mr. Newell was perfectly natural in his behavior, lost three games of pool, paid.for them, and departed at a few minutes past 5 o'clock, leaving the parcels which he had apparently forgotten, behind him. At about 6 o'clock he returned hurriedly and seemed full of business. He stated incidentally that he intended to leave town, and, getting some note paper, he sat down in the reading-room and wrote a letter. Having finished it, he returned to the billiard-room, got his parcels, and went away. This was the last which Mr. Coan saw of him.

The distress of llie family over Mr. Newell's disappearance and undoubted death is very great. They are most anxious that all that can be done toward determining his fate should be done, and throw themselves upon the charity of all lake men, relying upon them to keep a lookout for the body and to supply to Mrs. Newell, at 408 West Monroe street, any information that may come to their knowledge.

Hancock for Peace in Peace. Memphis Appeal (Dem.), June 25. While in Memphis three monihs ago General Hancock asked his friends to make no demonstration over his arrival, or even announce his presence in the newspapers, as his visit to his son in Mississippi would be attributed to an electioneering tour, which' was abhorrent to his feelings. General Hancock was one of the most gallant soldiers in the Federal army, but while he was for war during the war he has been for peace in time of peace. Democrats in assembling at Cincinnati were resolved to nominate no man for the Presidency whose character was in the least tainted with disloyalty, and they present to the country one of the most couspicuous heroes of the late war, a man who shed his blood in defense of the Union, a man who has endeared himself to the Southern people by his administration..

ST. JACOBS OIL cures Rheumatism of this I am convinced. For two years I suffered with Rheumatism in my left shoulder and right arm, and last fall I was incapable of attending to my duties, and lay many a night unable to sleep on account of terrible pains. A few weeks ago a severe attack of this trouble struck me, and this time I concluded to try the St. Jacobs Oil, I must acknowledge, with biit little confidence in its merits. I freely confess that the result has completely astonished me. The first application relieved the pain very materially, and the continued use of only two bottles has completely cured me of this chronic evil, and that after the most eminent physicians and their prescriptions had been of no avail. I therefore consider it a duty to publish the above for the benefit of all sufferers with Rheumatism and kindred complaints.
