SUICIDE WAS
PROBABLY
INSANE
UNKNOWN WHO JUMPED INTO
TRAIN AT CLACKAMAS HAD
ACTED QUEERLY.
No Clu To His Identity Disclosed by
His Possessions or Evidence
at Coroner's In
quest. The stranger who was killed near
C'lurkamns station Tuesday afternoon
by being run over by a train, probably
committed suicide while demented.
This was tho gist of the evidence
brought out at tho Inquest. The Jury
rttturnod a verdict that tho unknown
man's death, caused by tho Southern
Pacific train at 1:25 p. in., was una
voidable and no ono to blame except
tho victim.
During tho Inquest it wos brought
out that tho stranger had been soon
all day around the Clackamas station
and alt thought there was something
strange attout tho man. Ho was a
mon of about 40 yeors of ago, well
built, hod sandy hair and mustache.
He was dressed very plainly and had
In his possession a bible and somo re
ligious tracts. Not a thing was found
In his pockets that would give a clue
to his Identity.
In his pockets thero wero a couple
of business cards, ono bearing the
name of a business firm In Tacoma
and the other of a Portland plumbing
firm and on tho back of which tho
stranger had written tho address of
"C. C. Mlers, Union House, 68. Ever
ett St."
Tho man was seen around Clacka
mas by a man who came to tho home
of Dace Close at Edge wood saying
that there was a man down tho track
who was dying for tho need of water.
Close told him to bring tho stranger
to the house and he was brought and
placed on tho bed and his sufferings
relieved, when all of a sudden tho suf
ferer jumped straight up out of tho
bed with his hands In tho air, crying
out, "My God, I am well, let me up,
let mo up."
Tho mon then walked out of tho
house and walked down tho truck to
ward Portland.
Ho was next s-n by tho section
crew a few minutes before tho Occi
dent occurred. One of tho Hinder
boys and Ed Headman, who were
watching tho train pass, saw tho train
run over him. j
Tho fidlow seemed deranged and
did not listen to tho section crew
when they warned him that tho train
was coming. Ho kept on running to
ward the train and then tho train
whistled a warning, the man only ran
fuster.
On coming to ono of tho cattle
guards those who sow tho stranger
running at a breakneck spied ahead
of tho train wondered If ho would hes
itate and Jump off tho track. Hut In
stead of that tho demented man clear
ed the wide space with an easy stride.
The train was traveling at a speed
that could not bo slackene! at once
and tho engine struck the tiinn, and as
the lant car passed, the mangled form
lay by tho side of tho track.
The left arm and leg had been cut
off and tho rest of tho body was In a
mangled stale. His features oittsldo
of a large bruise on tho left sldo and
spattered with blood wero not Injur
ed. The remains wero brought to
Coroner Dolman's office, where the In
quest whs held at 9:20 o'clock Wed
riesdny morning.
