Between 8 and 9 o'clock Thomas went to his wife's sleeping- room and blew off the top of his head with a shotgun. At the time the ter- rible deed was committed no one else was in the house, the wife and young- est son having gone out to attend a lecture. Returning home at an early hour from the entertainment, the son detected the odor of powder smoke as soon as he entered the house. Upon making search for the cause he found the lifeless body of his father lying beside the bed, a shotgun partly under his body. Thomas was seen on the street an hour before he took his life and noth- ing peculiar was noted in his actions. He had been feeling somewhat de- pressed for some time, owing to a pre- vious trouble, but until within an hour before his death he had said nothing that could have been interpreted as a hint that he contemplated self-destruc- tion. About half past 7 last evening, while in conversation with two of his sons near the Southern Pacific station, he remarked: “Well, I am getting to be an old man and I might as well be out of the way. You will not see any mnore of me after two or three hours.” But even then it was not suspected that he meant anything serious, as he was given to gloomy forebodings.

Louls Kahn, the cashier and principal stock- holder, who shot himself in a mysterious way in his bathroom yesterday, is still alive. After the shooting yesterday afternoon rumors to the effect that Kahn was finan- clally embarrassed were ripe. Barly this morning depositors began to arrive in town, many of them coming from as far away as Knights Ferry. Some thirty or more gathered in a line in front of the bank with the intention of withdrawing their money as soon as the institution’s doors were opened. Shortly before 9 o'clock an employe of the bank posted a notice on the door stating that the bank had suspended business for five or six days. No reason was given. The depositors are very anx- | fous, and many of them have remained in Oakdale to await developments. The following are the directors of the bank: Thomas B. Dorsey of Oakdale, presi- dent; Louis Kahn of Oakdale, cashler; R. H. Bentley of Oakdale; Joseph H. Kahn, the son of the wounded man, as- sistant cashier; George J. Bentley of Mo- desto, E. A.
