' After a Rigid Investigation of the
Case—Ilka. Adama' Story of the Suicide.

“Helleelpl My husband has killed
himself!" were the cries of an agonizsd
woman that pierced the air at 12:30

‘o’clock'flunday morning. They proceed-
" ed from the apartments over stis’
pbomph gallery at 34 Main street,
‘Norwalk, and were uttered by Mrs.

Wagoner, who, with blanched face and
,_ disheveled hair, Issued for out of the
" window. Her husband, who is male
on the propeller “City of Norwalk," had
committed suicide in the presence of his
‘7 wife by shooting himself in the left tem-
ple, dying instantly.
Sg‘veral belated pedestrians, hurryinz
“1‘ hails from Saturday night’s business
cares, were attracted by the cries of dis-
tress and rushed up stairs to the room
from whence they came. The first to
arrive were Usher Beers, a butcher em.
played at E. .l. Wadhalns’ Norwalk mar-
ket, and Jerry Driscoll. Mr. Beers found

Mrs. Adams in the kitchen bending over
.hsr husband’s prostrate form, moaning
5nd bdgglnghimtospeakto herandtell
her why he had shot himself. She was
’cladonly in a night dress, which was
. spattered with her husband’s blood as it
' sported from the bullet hole made by a
‘ thirty—two caliber cartridge in his tem-
pie.

The flesh around the wound was black-

ened and burned from the flash of the
powder, and the hair was slightly singed.
- A self-cocking revolver lay upon the
floor near the corpse. The dead man's
head rested upon the window sill on a
pile of papers, while the other portion of
the body was supported by the chair in
which the suicide had evidently been
sitting. Mr. Beers gently pulled Mrs.
Adams away from the body and was en—
deavoring to pacify her when Oilicer
IIorehouse arrived. Seeing the state of
j affairs he immediately summoned Cap-
Y tain of Police Dana and Officer Bartram
1 and a telephone message was sent to
" Medical Examiner Burke, of South Nor-
" walk. A crowd of curious spectators
’ hadby this time gathered and the cilicers
joleared the apartments. Captain Dana
, guarded the lower doors, while Officers
‘: Bartram and Many remained upstairs.
‘ After listening to Mrs. Adsms' story of
her husband's suicide, Oillcor More-
. house decided to thoroughly search the
premises and see if her story was true.
,yBedld so, and even went so far as to
j: search the adjoining roofs, but found no
i: one. Mrs. Adams told a straightfor-
) ward story to the officers, and they be-
3‘ [love all her statements were correct.
0 Her grief was exceedingly violent. and it
was only by main force that she was re.
.strained from jumping out of the win-
dow or gaining possession of her hus-
‘hand’s revolver and repeating his rash
act. When the medical examiner ar-
a... be decided am Mr. Adams death
was a causal suicide, and that he would
, rbnderhis formal verdict Sunday mom-
‘1 lug. He then left the body in charge of
the bereaved wife.

At this juncture Deputy Sheriff Toner

This only addedto her grief. but she

morning, when Chief of Police Bradley
ordered that she be released.

Mrs. Adams told Shaman. reporter
substantially the same story she told the
police. She said her husband came home
Saturday morning about 10 o’clock. She
noticed that be had beendrlnking, but
nothing of an unpleasant nature was
said by either of them. They spent the
day together, and that evening she asked
him to go to the theatre with her. He
replied that she had better go and he
would go down and see his brother.
He did so, and she met him after the
theatre. He had been drinking again.
but not very much, she thought. ‘ They
went out together and got their Sun-
day dinner. He seemed a little downoaet,
lira. Adams said, because he was not
going to have Labor Day as a holiday,
but otherwise appeared all right. When
they arrived home he appeared nervous,
walked the floor considerably, and
finally they retired, He was restless and
took all the pillows on the bed to put
under his head. Mrs. Adams said she
then begsntonotice that her husband
was not himself. He got up. packed his
clothes in two valise. took his revolver
out of the bureau where it was always
kept, looked at it, and put it in his
pocket. He got a box of cartridges and
placed them in the valises, then started
to leave the house. He would say noth-
ing in reply to his wife’s questions. She
said she did not worry, as he always
acted strangely when under the influence
of dri'nk,so she made no objection to
his going out. Shortly afterwards, Mrs.
Adams said, her husband returned and
sat down by the kitchen table. She got
up, went out and sat down near him.
He said nothing, but suddenly straight.
ened up, and putting his band into his
pocket pulled out his revolver and mut—
inred, “Well, one bullet will do it any-
way." He then deliberately took the
weapon in his left hand and placing it
close to his left temple tired. Mrs.
Adams said she jumped towards him to
wrest the revolver from him, but he was
too quick for her and gaspm his last as
she reached his side. She then called
for help,and tells the rest of the story as
above related. She seemed to keenly
feel the remorse of being charged with
murder, and was very hysterical as she
told hm- story.

She said that Sunday morning, about
6:30 o‘clock, the deputy sheriff, exoth-
cer Many, Jerry Driscoll and a man
named Deagen, sent out after a bottle of
whiskey. They asked her to drink, but
she refused. They afterwards sent out
and had their breakfasts brought in. Mr.
Toner, she said, did not release her until
ordered to do so by Chief of Police Brad-
ley, after he had investigated the case
himself and consulted the medical ex-
iner.

Chief of Police Bradley said he was
surprised to find Mrs. Adams in the dep-
uty sheriff‘s charge, and that Mr. Toner
wanted to turn her over to him. He re-
frused to be responsible for the arrest,
and telephoned to Dr. Burke to find out
what he thought of the case. The doctor
said it was a clear case of suicide and
there was no cause for any arrest. He
said he would come up and deliver his
formal verdict immediately, which he
did. Chief Bradley said he then ordered
Mrs. Adams' release.

it was learned later thit Mr. Adams
had twice before tried to take his life,
once at Port Chester, when in the saloon
business, and the second time in Nor-
walk, only a few weeks ago. At the
time of the first attempt a physician who
was calledsaid that when he had such
attacks ustlis one Saturday night, hlr.
Adams was very dangerous and as liable
to killanyene else as himself. lie ad-
vised his wife to watch him closely
when he was in that condition. Mr.
Adams was an absinthe drinker,and that
or whiskey put him in an extremely
nervous state.

Mr. and Mrs. Adams were married in
Rye, N. Y., May 241b, 1893. Mr. Adams
was a saloon keeper in Port Chester and
Mrs. Adams was working in that place.
They lived there until last September,
when Mr. Adams sold out his business
and they moved to Norwaik, where be
secured a position as deckhand on the
propeller “City of Norwalk." lie was
promoted to mate in a short time. The
deceased was a brother of William
Adams, of Water street, Norwalk. His
father and mother reside in Greenwich.
They were notified of Mr. Adams' death
and came to Norwalk Sunday night,
They wanted to remove the body at once
to Greenwich, but it was finally decided
tohold the funeral from his late resi-
dence today, and take the remains to
Greenwich for interment. A relative of
Ir. Adams told a Sunrises reporter,
Sunday evening, that the family thought
the suicide was due tojoalonsy, as Mr.
Adams was exceedingly jealous of his
wife and. they had several quarrels on
that acmunt.

The service in memory of the late

Samuele Sherwood stsell, at the

Norwalk Congregational church, Sunday

evening, waslsrgely attended, the seat-

ing capacity of the church being taxed
to its utmost.

The edifice had been bountifully deco-
rated with palms, ferns and cut flowers

by the members of the Y. P. S. C. E.

Rev. Mr. Ellwood, who had known Mr.
Bissell longer than any other clergyman,
gave interesting reminiscences of his
youth and early manhood. Rev. Mr.
Sslleck, his long-time neighbor and int:-
mate friend, paid a noble tribute to his
worth as a. man, his public spirit as a
citizen, and his services as a faithful
minister of Jesus Christ. Dr. Seward
spoke brilliantly and feelingly of him as
illustrating the beauty of a good old age.
Rev. Mr, Watkins paid a
tribute to Mr. Bissell's catholxcity of
spirit and made an earnest plea
for church unity. In closing the hallow-
edservice Dr. Noble spoke as follows:

hisyl be permitted as the pastor of our
honored brother to add a single (lower to
the beautifnlchsplet of affectionate re-
membrance placed tonight by loving
hands upon the grave of our dear dead
friend”: It was not my privilege to know
him in the glory of his youth nor in the
fuller and richer splendors of his ripened
manhood. Five years ago this summer
when i came to beautiful Norwalk for a
brief visit and met him for the first time,
behad already nearly rounded out the
full‘orbed circle of fourscore years.
His sight was well-nigh gone and his
noble head and silken. silvery beard
were white with the frosts and
snows of well-nigh eighty winters.
But his cheeks wr re so rosy, his frame an
erect and his step so iirm,it never oc-
curred to me that he had entered the
seventh and final age of our mortal life
which the Great Master of human nat-
ure has so pathetically depicted. in the
bright autumn days that followed it was
good to see our brother, his dear wife by
his side, taking long and leisurely walks
inthe blessed sudshine, stopping every
now and then to receive the friendly
greetings of the neighbors who loved
him, or to speak a kindly word and lay
his hand in benediction upon the little
children who revered him. A year later,
when I returned to Norwslk as the
“purer elect”of this historic church and
a memorable reception was given to
me and mine, our brother stood
up amid the palms and llowersin our
beautiful chapel and voiced the welcome
of the church and congregation with all
the warmth and order of youth. A
welcome so gracious, so tender, so genu-
ine in its tone. so felicitous in its diction,
and so fascinating in its literary beauty,
that it lingers in my heart tonight like a
strain of exquisite music. And the wet-
come he gave us then he continued to
give in a less public wa‘ down to the
close of his beautiful lif . No pastor
could ever ask for a friend more faithful,
a companion more delightful, or scans»
seller more helpful. As the slow-fooled
years moved on, little ‘by little his
strength (sited. Thelong walks in the
open air bad to be given up. The pleas»
ant drives through field and
forest earns to an and.

A Heavy Illust.

An unusually heavy charge of dyna-
mite, Sunday morning about 0:80 o’clock,
in the blasting on the bluff at Spring-
wood, for the four-tracking operations,
sentasbower of rocks through the air
and caused quite a little damage. The
city's fire alarm wire was broken, caus-
ing the bell to strike once, and also the
large window in Thaddeus (inyer's meat
market on Ely avenue. The sheeting
paper was torn from the roof of the
building. Superintendent Hansel and
Lineman Lahhaw repaired the wire at
once, and a new glass has been placed in
the market. The four tracks ware
covered with fragments of rock to the
depth of about two feet. One of the
pieces was so big that the large chain
of the derrick was broken in attempting
to lift the stone.

Built Over Eighty Years Age on Land
that had Been in the (layer l'ax'ully
Since Revolutionary Timns— Recently
Purchased and Rebuilt by the Present
Owner, who Expanded all the Honey
he had in the World in Improvements.

’ At midnight, Saturday, as George R.
Nash and Alexander L. Austin, of Nor-
walk, in company with two young wo-
men, were driving along the Rctcn
Hill road, and bad just reached the brow-
of the bill, they discovered that the small
house on the (layer estate, opposite the
home of Thaddeus (layer, was on fire.
The blaze was in the cellar, but soon
spread up the partition on the east side
of the building. Mr. Nash jumped out of
the vehicle, and drawing a revolver
from his pocket fired three shots in the
air, and burst open the front door, thus
arousing the neighbors. By the time
people could dress, the flames had spread
nearly all through the house, and as it
was impassible to get water oaths build-
ing, it burned rapidly, and in about an
hour was entirely consumed.

The building was erected about eighty
years ago, by the late lsaac Benton, for
his son Louis, who was a brother of
Miss Harriet Bouton and Mrs. Esther M.
Guyer. lie conducted a hat shop there
about fifteen years, employing rsome
twenty-live men. The building contain-
eda plankshop, dyeing room, bowing-
room and office. Subsequently it was
transformed intoadwelling house and
was rented to a number of families until
two years ago, when William B. Guyer
moved his printing office there, and
occupied the building about a year. Two
months ago the house, a plot of ground
and the barn, which is over one hundred
years old, were sold to John Foder, a
thrifty Hungarian, who lives on the
Wilson Point road. The frame of the
house was hewn out of large chestnut
trees, and there was a large old~fashion-
ed chimney connected with the building.
Mr. Fuder had the chimney taken down,
a cellar dug in the rear of the house and
the building was moved back.

Mr. Foder told a Summer. reporter
that he had expended all the money be
had in the world, about $300, fixing up
the house, building the cellar foundation,
chimney, and partitioning off the second
story, making live rooms. lie had just
finished the work, and Michael Clean, a
fellow countryman had rented the place,
and expected to move in today. Mr.
k‘odor had a number of tools in the
cellar and these were all destroyed. lie
carried an insurance of $600 with J. ill.
Layton.

There is somewhat of a mystery con-
nected with the alarm sent into head-
quarters about llfteen minutes after the
fire was discovered. The bell first struck
three strokes successively, but afterward
sounded Box 21 several times very cor-
rectly. This box is located at the corner
of Taylor avenue and West street, and
keys to it are kept in the residence of l“.
A. Smith and lllrs. Elizabeth S. Mather.
Neither of these were used, and it is not
known who struck the box, as the key
had been removed when Superintendent
Boone] went to take it out. He says he
did not strike the alarm. lie was going
up Hamilton avenue to locate the blaze
when the bell stmck.

A reporter called on Chief Engineer
Baker, late Sunday night. lie stated
that be had been unable to learn who
sent in the alarm, although he had been
looking the matter up.

When the alarm struck, Driver Mo
Gownswflhesupplywwon. started in
the direction of Bus ll, on Railroad place,

started, and went nearly to the city line
on West street. It was thought the- bra
was on Elm Grove place, and the driver
turned about and went down that thou-
longbfsre a short distance. when it was
found that the blaze was outside the oily .,
limits, and that no water could be reach
Ied.

The property on which the house stood,
Ibad been in tbe‘possessionof the Boston
families since the time of the Revolu-
tionary war. In one corner of the lot is
an old burying ground, but the rough
stones that once marked the last resting
places of a number of Norwalk’s oldest
settlers, have disappeared. and not a
great many people know of the existence
of this burial place.
