He was stricken with dysentery at that time and a few days ago was able to be about, but a relapse occurred which terminated fatally. Col. Burnes leaves a wife and one daughter.

He practiced law in St. Louis till 1872, when he removed to this city and in company with his brother, the late Congressman James N. Burnes, es- tablished the National Bank of St. Joseph, being elected its president. In 1876, by reason of being one of the bondsmen of Colonel Elijah Gates, then State ‘l'reasurer, Colonel Burnes was involved in the troubles which ended in the failure of the National Bank of the State of Mis. souri at St. Louis and the Mastin bank at Kansas City the two banks holding over $2,000,000 of State Colonel Burnes by his energies,saved the State funds and every dollar was paid.

Weil, who swallowed an ounce and a half of carbolic acid and cut his throat, with suicidal intent, died at the Mount Vernon Hospital at 5:45 o'clock yesterday.

Then he tore the wound open with his hands. He was taken to the hospital. where he fought the physicians with the fury of a mad- man. He told the doctors he did not want to live.
