Secrecy and Premedita- tion Attended the Fatal Deed. The Misguided Man’s Sister Says He Was Not Insane, but Desperate. LAST ACTS OF HIS LIFE. He Swept and Garnished His Office Ready for His Suc- cessor., “I have sold a story to The Call; to my dying breath I swear they do not know what is in it.” Such was the ex- traordinary statement made by the newspaper man who committed sui- cide in order that his wife and those dependent on him should at least have daily bread for some time after his death. That such a thing might one day happen in connection with a man who had spent his life in newspaper work and wished* to make a dramatic exit from this world has long been a toplc of conversation among reporters, but when the story of such a suicide as printed. in yesterda Call was read the newspaper men were aghast at the terrible realism and professional se- crecy displayed by the deceased man. On Friday evening last Livernash visited the editorial rooms of The Call | and said he had a story to dispose of |at a certain figure. He hinted that the | story was in connection with a Fed- | eral official who had been gullty of em- | bezzlement and that it would have a sensational development. He was told that if the story were worth using and could be substantiated he paid the price he demanded, but in not being able to print his communication his manu- script would be consigned to the waste paper basket. He agreed to the terms proposed and left the office, saying he would write the story and send it in by Not a word did he utter of his suicidal intentions, nor give any clew as to whom the official implicated might be. The messenger who brought the news the promised manuscript, and the entire story was given to the world yesterday morning. The mere fact of bargaining for a price which could only be secured by his own death, and keeping the whole matter secret until he had terminated his existence, mark the occurrence as | one of the most extraordirary that has ever happened. “He was not insane; he was a des- perate man,” is the statement made by the wife and sister of J. J. Livernash, | who committed self-murder on Friday night last. That they are speaking from an intimate knowledge of the | facts which led to the dead man's self- destruction cannot be doubted for an instant, when it is borne in mind that they had for months gone without the ordinary necessaries of life in order that the husband and brother, the idol might have the money which he said he so sorely needed. The suicide of Livernash is the sequel to the old, old story. of the man who couid not say “No.” TUnable to resist temptation, utterly at the mercy of,any designing scoundrel who made his ac- quaintance, he was helpless and piti- ably weak when enticed by so-called friends to do that which, for the sake | of his wife and family, he should have avoided as an unspeakable evil. Gamb- ling and the intemperate use of strong liquors have been the cause of many suicides, but in no other case on rec- ord has there been such cold-blooded | premeditation and preparation, as well as such an Intense desire that his wife should benefit more by his death than she ever could have hoped to do from the_kind of life he was living. Miss Lizzie Livernash, when seen yesterday, sald: “The letter left by my brother was not the raving of an insane man, but a simple statement of a man who was driven to desperation by adverse circumstances. All that he stated regarding our misfortunes with the Healdsburg Enterprise was true. ‘We were turned out without a dollar.

Maud Dowell Says That the Deceased Never Used Opiates. Telegram From Her Lover Was Recéived at the Morgue Yesterday. 4 The investigation of the mysterlous circumstances surrounding the death of Ethel Burtis, the variety actress, as told in yesterday’s Call, has been taken in hand by Coroner Hawkins. The pe- culiar action of all parties in connec- tion with the case in endeavoring to to conceal the fact of three morphine pills having been found under the dead woman’s pillow first aroused suspicion that she had not died from natural causes, and people who have known her for many years assert that she was unaccustomed to use the drug. Miss Maud Dowell, one of Ethel Bur- tis’ closest personal friends and a con- stant visitor to the sickroom of the deceased woman, said last night: “I have known Ethel Burtis for many years and have never seen her use opiates in any form. for one moment that she used mor- phine; had she done so I should have been the first to have found it out. I was a constant visitor to her bedside when she was sick, and she did not appear to me to be in any danger of | death. I know that she was ill and did | not eat much, and she complained that | she was without a nurse to attend to her at night. I think that the matter should be investigated by the proper authorities, as none of her friends can account for the presence of morphine under her pillow.” Coroner Hawkins has detailed Chief | Deputy Coroner McCormick on the case, but he has not yet been able to | obtain a written statement about the | case from Dr. Martin. When seen vesterday Dr. Hawkins said: “I have taken the matter up and shall investi- gate it thoroughly. The fact of the body having been embalmed adds con- siderable difficulty to the elucidation of | the mystery. If T obtain evidence which in any way points to there having been any foul play I shall order the body to be exhumed and a complete chemical analysis made.

He secured a large number of dogs for the trip and made ready to depart, when he | was confronted by Dr. T. H. Thompson, | who claimed that Brownlie owed him $91 for medical services rendered. Brownlié had not been arrested at a late hour last night, and probably left for the Klondike before his importunate creditor had a chance to interview him. —_——————— BIG SALE OF LAND.
