During the dny telegrams were received from Washiugton, howeser, stating that Comn- misaloner Ruim, from whom the Intelligence pirported to come, was not in Washington .Klnndny, and that ho would not be_there untll to-day, Acting-Commissioner Rogers ktew nnulinp about’ any such rumors, and_ the Commissioner bad = not sued any such decislon in regard to the elyil- fnununlty business.

Yesterday afternoon, ahout 1 o'clock, a young mau naned George Moody attempted auicide by Teaping {rom onc of the windows of the fourth floor of the Shellon Court Hotel, on West Madison near Sheldon street. Moody Is o young man some 30 yenrs of nge, and hus o wife andn baby ahout two weeks old, Ilo s n young man of rather o sanguine-nervous temperament. Up to to some four weeks ago he was employed on the Western Rural, which paper was recently sold out_under a chattel mortgure to o man pamed Hoodless, Tn the transfer of the journal nn indebtedness to Moody of yome 8400 was overlooked, and he was deprived of his f\lst dues, This welghed heavily on bis mind. Added to this wos ihe fact that e was soon to becomo a father, which Involved extra expenses, About two weeks ngzo his wife was confined: Moody worked at whatever he could get to o, but losing his wazes on the Western ftural caused him to” run - behind on his hoard-bill, ‘I'his, nedded to hls troubles, induced him to take aleohol to alluy excitement.

Several persons heard tho screams of Mrs. Moody and her nursg, and saw the man fall. Among them was Dr, C. M.
