Waiter Commits Sui- cide by Turning on the Gas. [Boast That He Knew Murderer’s Name Seems Untrue. Samuel Raguet, a waiter and hanger- on in the poolrooms, committed sui- cide at 21333 Mason street on Friday' | night by turning on the gas, and his! | lifeless body was discovered yesterday | morning. Raguet often Intimated to; friends that he knew ‘a whole lot” | about the tamous Nora Fuller mur-i der case, and made statements that in his trunk would be found evidence to substantiate his statements. But a careful search of the dead man’s room failed to bring to light anything that would tend to solve the mystery. Raguet's body was discovered early yesterday morning by his landlady, | Mrs. Clara 1. Ronald. The room wus | filled with gas, and Raguet had evi-; dently turned on the fluid with the in- ention of ending his life. He left no! note ‘or word to explain the reason for his rash act. When the Coroner's deputies ar- rived on the sceme Mrs. Ronald in- ifonrwd them iliow the dead waiter had often hinted to her of his knowledge of the murder mystery. When this news spread around it created consid- erable excitement in police circles, for t sleaths thought they would cure a clew to the mystery that has never been cleared up A careful search of the effects of | the dead man failed to bring to light any startling facts regarding the mur- de The only bit of evidence found was a note written to a local news- paper, in which Raguet denies several allegations. ES OF MURDER CASE. ive is not very clear, and s follows: Dear Sir: In yesterday's issue of | your paper some of your contemporar- | ies made the statement that I had vivid or untrained imagination, or, in say that Madge Graham told me that one was her guardian, amd she ad- dressed him as O'd. Here you .cou- found the dates and try and mix two statements in one. The one who was with Miss Graham. that evening, July whom ou. refer Lo as Mr. Granat, did not make any statement to bout drink; but a man did on the Sat- | day pr us to the publication of ! Nora Fuller's death.” | Raguet worked as a waiter at the Popular restaurant at the time Nora Fuller and Hadley, the supposed mur- derer, were wont to frequent the place. | He was watched by the detectives at the time, and had several interviews | with Captain Seymour, then head of | the detective department, but he failed to divulge any startling facts regard- | ing the case. Raguet seemed to have a craze on the Nora Fuller subject, and for weeks e | after his Interview with Seymour he wrote letters to the varius newspa- pers in which he intimated he could tell mpel; but his information never amounted to more than a few wild re- ports, and he was finally regarded as a fanatic or lunatic. LETTERS FROM RELATIVES. Raguct evidently came from a good family in Minneapolis. Among his effects were Several letters from his relatives. He kept up a constant cor- respondence with Miss Ktta Roth, a | ntece, of Robbinsdale, Minn. In one of Jier letters the young woman chided lim for even thinking of marrying for. | 1aoney, and woupd up her missive by saying that if he did h¢ would be the | irst Raguet to commit such an of- fense. | Another letter, from a brother in | Davenport. lowa, was also fountd | among the dead inan's effects. The two | evidently had some troublé over a piece of land left by a relative, and | the brother in Jowa sought to} straighten the matter out. From the | tone of the letter it would appear that | the dead man thought he was getting | the worst of the litigation. Kaguct was a member of the local Waiters' Union, though he had not worked at his trade for some months. He had been In many parts of the United States, as letters and photo- graphs among his effects showed., He —— e ADVERTISEMENTS.

Alexander Tod Brown committed suicide in the reception-room of the Hotel Higgins, 235 O'Farrell street, yesterday morning, about 10 o'clock, by shooting himself in the right tem- ple. He had been in the'habit of cail- ing upon John Simpson, a race-track | man, who lives there. and he made the usual call yesterday morning. He. in quired for Simpson and was informed | that he had gone to the race trick. Brown was carrying a 8rip and he | réniarked to C. E. Keeley, ‘a roomer, that he had just come from Palo Alto, and would leave in the afternoon for Healdsburg. He left Keeley and walked into the reception-room. 1In a few minutes people n the hotel were star- tled by hearing the report of a shot and Brown was found seated at a table with blood flowing from a wound in his right templé and a revolver on the | floor beside the chair on which he was seated. He had dled instantly. The Coroner's: office wis notified. and the body rémoved to the Morgue. < In Brown's grip and the pockets of his clothing ‘a number of letters were found. They showed that he had been in constant bad Iuck. Most of them ex- pressed the hope that he weuld soon procure a job. One was from Franklin H. Day, secretary of California Lodge No. 1, Frée and Accepted Masons. dated January’ 25, in~ which Day regretted that he could giye Brows no encour- agement. as to procurlng employment. Auother was frdm the secretary of Lodge St. Clair of Edinburgh, Scotland, ‘of which Brown had become a membe in 1883. Brown had written the secre- tary in 1904 for a duplicate of his diploma, which had been sent him. He had evidently bgen employed at vari- us places in cafes and restaurants. R. T. Brown of Dry Creek. near Healdsburg, was a brother of Brown, and the latter had occasionally been staying with him. A dispatch was sent to the proprietor of the Sotoyome Ho- tel, Healdsburg, to notify R. T. Brown of his brother's death. The deceased was a man about 45 years of age.
