The Hot Wave.
The present hot wave is not only the
most intense but the most protracted
and widespread of the season. Indeed,
heated terms have rarely reached the
severity of the present oppressive
spell, and it is only once ;in many
years that they cover so vast an area
.and linger so long.
‘ The present hot Wave has been parch-
fing and sweltering the region East of
the Rocky Mountains and Southward
nearly to the Gulf for more than a
week, .and its intensity has been little
weakened as yet in the Middle States.
Having reached the coast, Ms likely to
end or weaken its sway within the next
twenty-four hours; but, unless the at-
mosphere shall be chilled by hail-
storms, the oppressive heat is likely to
continue throughout the day and possi-
bly in a lesser degree tomorrow.
The hot nights prevent many from
obtaining needed rest; and all who
rise from a sleepless bed with the de-
pression that always attends the want
of rest, should scrupulously avoid ex-
posure to excessive heat. Indeed,none
are safe from sunstroke or prostration
from heat who must expose themselves
to the scorching rays of the sun, and
each day of continued heat more or
less impairs the power of all classes to
resist the oppression that always attends
our hot waves.
By to-night a cool wave is promised
by the' weather bureau to reach us. Mr.
’Dunn says there is one coming along
{from the region of the Mississippi Val-
lley which is bigand powerful enough
"to make us all comfortable again. The
.cool wave will be welcomed. The heat
yesterday was nearly as intense as the
day before and there was somewhat less
.humidity.

THE sum SUICIDE.
0ne Tragic Act in a Great Financial
Drama.
ILLUSTRATION IN EARNEST.
Broker Sistare Shows Lawyer Bennett
at the Manhattan Club How One Man .
Died and Ends the Exhibition
by Shooting Himself Dead.
NEW YORK, July 29.——A tragedy at the
Manhattan club startled the members of
that exclusive and historic mansion in the
morning. At about 10-30 o’clock a shot
rang out in the spacious reception room of
the club, and a man formerly wealthy and
Well known in Wall street fell dead by his
wn act. The suicide was George K. Sis-
tare, of the brokerage firm of George K.
Sistare’s Sons, of 16 Broad street. The firm
failed in May, 1890, for nearly $1,500,000,
and since then there has} been grave dis-
closures in regard to the financial methods
of the members of the firm.
A Shot Was Heard.
W. H. M. Sistare, the head of the bank-
rupt firm, was arrested and indicted on a
charge of swindling August Hecksher out
of $63,000 by the failwe. The attorney for
the firm is Lawyer Henry S. Bennett, who is
a prominent member of the Manhattan
club. He wished to consult George K. Sis-
tare in regard to the affairs of the firm,
and at 10:30 Mr. Sistare called at the club-
house. He walked up the wide marble
steps of what was formerly the Stewart
mansion and asked to see Mr. Bennett. The
lawyer was in and he came into the recep-
tion room to see Mr. Sistare.
The two men were in consultation several
minutes. Then a shot was heard, and Mr.
Bennett ran out crying, “He has killed him-
self!" The hotel attendants. ran in and
found Mr. Sistare dying, with a bullet
wound in his right temple. He had a32-
caliber Smith & Wesson revolver in his
hand, and died within a few minutes. Mr.
Sistare was about fifty years of age. He
was not a member of the Manhattan club.
Lawyer Bennett’s Story.
Lawyer Bennett’s story is as follows: I
had not seen Sistare for over a year and
we greeted each other cordially. We each
spoke of the hot weather, and then com-
menced talking about old times. In this
talk something was recalled—I will not say
what it was—which led Sistare to take his
revolver from his pocket and show me how
one man had shot another.
Sistare continued talking, then suddenly
staggering backward, with a wild glare in
his eyes, raised the revolver to his head and
shot three times. The movement came so
suddenly that I had not time to move be-
fore the shots were fired. .
A few moments later he was dead. 1
think the man was insane. For ten years
he has not been strong mentally, and the
excessive heat, I believe, afle‘cted him.
