SUICIDE THEORY JARRED
THOMAS M'CORMICK MAT BE
MVROER VICTIM.
Man Whose Throat Wat Cut Had
rockets Turned Out Xo Weapon
I'oond Near Scene.
Indications of murder developed In
th rase of Tbomaa alcCormlck. found
on tha street with hla throat cut, whan
Homer Guiles, his stepson, appeared at
detectlv headquarters yesterday and
said that whil McCorralck waa penni
less al tb moment when h last saw
him. a few hours before he received hla
wound, he declared at that time hi
Intention of calling upon a friend to se
cure a loan of I Si.
When McCormick was found lying on
tha street Thursday night, with hi
throat cut from ear to ear. ha said that
ha had been assaulted and robbed by a
man who had crept up behind him. and
the statement wss borne out by tha fact
that ther was no money In his pockets
and no weapon In th vicinity by which
he mlaht have Inflicted tb wound
himself.
dudes says that McCormick cams
her recently from Spokane, and was
entirely without funds, Giles had $1.
out of which he assisted hla stepfather
as long as th money lasted, and gave
him half of tb last remaining 10 cents
on th evening McCormick throat waa
cut.
Ir. Fred J. Zlegler. who attended Me
Connie k at th hospital, la of th opin
ion that th wound could not hav bean
Inflicted by another unless th victim
wer approached from behind, and In
clines to accept th suicide theory. De
tectives T.chenor and Howell are look
ing for th man who waa to hav been
asked for th loan, and If thay find that
he granted th request. It will add
strength to th murder theory.
McCormick waa haxy and contradic
tory In his statements during th two
days that ha lingered between Ufa and
death, t'nless It Is shown that ha suc
ceeded In borrowing money, th case
Will be set down aa on of suicide and
It will be held that he told the story of
assault and robbery to conceal hla own
.ct.
Tha dead man waa (1 years old and
has a wife In Spokane, who was In com
munication with tha authorities here,
but threw no light on th case. Gullea
says that McCormick waa very despond
ent on the night when h last saw him.
