John Cardwell, for three torms city
marshal of Burns. Hnrnoy county,
committed suicide at that place, Sat
urday, in health had mado him despondent.
"Wick" Wulker, a well-to-do farm
er living on Birch creek, about (tight
miles west of town, is missing, and
fears are entertained that he has
committed suicide by what means
novone has any definite notion, al
though tho general surmise is that he
may have drowned nimsotr.
A goneral alarm was turned in here
lu the city this morning, although- a
few knew of the disappearance last
evening, and a number of iieoplo bnvo
gone out to Birch creek to search for
the man and for traces mat may
prove a key to his whereabouts, All
that Is known at this time on tho sub
ject is as follows:
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning
Mr. Walker took a bucket of slop and
left the house wherein lie and his
family rosido and started ostensibly
for tho pig pen. soma distance away.
As he did not return after some time,
search was mado for mm by the
family, but they could find no cluo
whatever to his whereabouts, and
then gave tho alarm. Tho bucket of
slon for tho pigs was found In the
fnth leading from the house to tho
pli, pen, Us contents being exactly as
me wero when Mr, Walker left the
House.
Some distance away Is Birch creek,
which is bank lull from the recent
rains, but up to this time it is not
even known in town whether any
tracks leading to the creek havo been
founds nor Is anything else known
that would bo an Indication as to tho
direction ho took upon deserting the
pnm wnich tea from the house tu the
pig pens.
Mr. Walker's business standing ' is
excellent, und ho has money on de
posit at me Havings Bank. Hie has
not checked out of it lately, nnd tho
report late Saturday night that he at
tempted to get cash on a presum
ably false check on tho Savings Bank
appears to be entirely false.
Mr. Walker has lived in this vicin
ity for a good many years and his so
cial standing Is good, as well as his
business relations. He Is 38 or 40
years of age, and, as mentioned be
fore, has a family, with whom until
yesterday no resided at their homo
on Birch creek.
