AGED SUSPECT, HELD IN JAIL, STABS HIMSELF. CITY When Arrested, R. S. Hayes Is Attempt Ins; to Sell Jewelry, Believed by Police to Have Been Stolen at Seattle. Apparently fearing that hia return to Seattle on a charge of larceny would entail a heavy prison term and de spondent over his physical condition, R. S. Hayes, alias A. F. Hammond, a prisoner at the City Jail, tried to com mit suicide yesterday noon by stabbing himself eight times with a knife, and strangling himself with his necktie. It is also believed that he got hold of some morphine and took that. He is at present in an unconscious condition at St. Vincent's Hospital, where he was taken by the Ambulance Service Company after being first attended by M. W. Rose, interne at the Emergency Hospital. Hayes, who is 62 years of age, was picked up last Friday by Detective Dan Kell-eher as he was trying to get rid of a quantity of Jewelry. He was taken to police headquarters, but Intensive questioning from Captain Baty and De tectives Joe Day and Pat Moloney failed to reveal anything of his rec ord. With him he carried approxi mately $400 worth of Jewelry and in hia room was found a loaded revolver. Part of the Jewelry was later identified as being stolen from Seattle and Ta coma and it is believed some dental Instruments he had were also Tacoma loot. He also had a coin collection containing coins of almost a score of different countries. The prisoner who occupied the cell adjoining the one in which Hayes was kept told detectives yesterday that Hayes had spoken intimately of a num ber of state prisons, among them be ing Jefferson City, Mo. He also told the prisoner that "police officers in this part of the country had been tak ing their hats off to him" for some time, indicating that he is the high class and successful crook Hhe detect ives believe him- to be. Detectives had been trying to Identify the quantity of stuff found on Hayes, but were unable to fasten any big "Job" on the man. He is be lieved by detectives around the sta tion to be a big man in his line, and they think he might have served sev eral sentences in other cities. Hayes had dyed his hair black, and the dye is now wearing off, revealing his natural gray hair. STATE GRANGE CONVENES BUSINESS . AND PLEASURE 11 La COMBINE AT ASTORIA.
