StiICIDE OF POLICEMAN
h HOUSE OF THE DEAD
i
James Duffy, Who Killed Him
self in Morgue, Spent Years
in Handling Bodies of
Suicides
THEORY OF SUGGESTION
Considerable Interest has been manl
rested by psychologists nnd students of
mental diseases In the case of Policeman
Jamea DufTy, who killed himself last night
In tho morgue.
Duffy blew out his brains while bodies of
unidentified suicides lay In tho basement
of the building. The patrolman had been
on this "beat" for mnny years and had as
sisted In carrying dead bodies Into the
morgue. Ho had been unwell recently, but
persons familiar with tho case attribute tho
man's Belt destruction to "suggestion."
Duffy, In tho course of his career, had
taken charge of many enscs of suicide. He
had not only taken charge of tho bodies, but
Investigated tho deaths, nnd nppeared as a
witness before the Coroner's Jury. Ho hnd
taken such things as a matter of course.
"Handling" suicides to him was a part of
ordinary police business. lie had never
been morbidly affected by these "Jobs."
But last night Duffy selected the morgue
ns the place of his death. He might have
killed himself nt home or at any other
point on his long "beat," but ho chose In
stead tho place where for so many years
ho had been In tho atmosphere of suicide.
"It looks very much like n caso of sug
gestion," said Dr. Llchtner Winner, pro
feasor of psychology at tho University of
Pennsylvania and a scientist of Interna
tional reputation. "But of course I should
havo to know every fact In tho caso to pass
a final opinion.
"Tho man may have been 111 mentally or
physically. Hut It Is romarknble that he
should have chosen the morgue as tho place
of his suicide. It Is significant, too, that ho
killed himself with his police rovolvcr. In
my studies In psychology, however, I have
never known of a single undisputed case of
suggestion.
"Suggestion Is rather a theory than an
established fact. Hero was a man who had
been used to what to many persons would
be n morbid environment His duties hnd
brought him into contact with the morgue
keeper. He had carried bodies Into tho
building at vnrlous times without any seem
ing mentnl pain to himself, according to
what I am told. There Is evidence of sug
gestion, but I should hcsltnto to character
ize this case as such, without qualifica
tion." Dr. "Walter S. Cornell, chief medical In
spector of tho public schools. Is also a
student of psychology. Ho said:
"Tho man may have been tho victim of
an Imperative Impulse I mean by that,
that ho might have been disturbed by
thoughts over which ho could exercise no
tontrol. But If, ns I have been told, he
was of a robust disposition. It seems un
likely that he should have been affected by
suggestion. Suggestion Is generally a con
dltlon with only excitable persons.
, ''That man may havo been tho victim of
false impressions. He may havo dovelopcd
dlfllcultlcs with which bo was not con
fronted, but which nevertheless existed In
his mind. I should havo to investigate tho
man's physlcnl health beforo reaching a de
cision. How was tho man's digestion?
That is an Important question."
ERRORS IN COUNTY FUNDS
Burlington Freeholders Get Report of
Audit of Collectors' fiooks
MT. HOLLY, N. J., June 8. A report of

URGES MORE PHYSICIANS
TO AID SCHOOL CHILDREN
Dr. V 3. Cornell Says 40 New In
spectors Aro Needed
Dr. Waller S. Cornell, chief medical In
spector of the public schools, nppeared be
fore tho Committee on Elementary Schools
to plead for the appointment of additional
school physicians to prevent diseases
among the children. He told tho committee
that the needs of tho school system would
Justify the appointment of 46 new medical
Inspectors, and that their services would
cost many thousands of dollars annually.
According to Doctor Cornell, contagious
diseases havo been reduced to a remark
able extent within the last few years by
the work of his department. The medical
Inspectors are physicians who devote only
a part of their time lo the school work.
They are employed by the Department of
Health and Charities, but since their
salaries are paid by the Board of Educa
tion me appointment of additional In
spectors would necessarily be authorized by
tho latter body.
GRIEVED FATHER QUITS

pital from wounds suffered when scalded.
On the day following the burial the father

tlal Life Insuranco Company as Clifford's
life Insurance, Ho told his wife ho was
going to Kensington avenue to pay the un
dertaker's bill and would have the check
cashed In the neighborhood. Inquiry made
at the offices of tho Insuranco company has
elicited the fact that tho check never wns
cashed.
Hlndley was employed as a stocking
boarder at the factory of William Brown,
Kensington avenuo nnd Ontnrlo street. He
has been married twice. Clifford was the
youngest of four children by his first wife.

no wrangles at all, she said, and there is a
baby several months old to add Joy to the
household.

Ccntrnr district to search for her husband.

Evening -Ledger, Made Ten
Days Ahead and Right 20
Times in 30
EVENING BULLETIN PRAISE
The Kvenln fltillMIn today h
nay nbout the Moore-Cnrolhers lonu Tne
weather forecasts published exelusttelr
every Monday " the KVEN1NQ LfcDOEni
'There's a weather forecast of a sort
which Us authors say Is 'new now current
In Pennsylvania. Instead of predicting the
weather twenty-four or twelve hours In yd,
vance, this forecast Is made nt least ten
days ahead.
"For example, the men who are respon
sible for It will tell you today what the
weather wilt be on Juno 18 And. by a
comparison of their predictions for tho
month of Mny with tho weather recorded
by tho local United States Wenther Bu
reau Stnllon, they will be 'right' nbout
twenty, times out of thirty
'The official Weather Bureau Itself, dur
ing the month of May, was 'right' In ap
proximately twenty-four cases out of thirty,
making Its predictions only twelve hours
ahead. . ,
"On April 24 Willis L. Moore, Rockvllle,
Md., formerly Chief of tho United Stntcs
Weather Bureau, and W. F. Carothors,
director of tho Cnrothcrs Observatory, Hous
ton, Texas, began tho publication in this
sinin nt what thev called 'weather fore
casts for two weeks, based on a new dis
covery In solar physics.' The first forecast
npplled to Pennsylvania for tho week of
April 30 to May 6, Inclusive, and each
subsequent forecast haB also npplled to a
slngto week Instcnd of to the two-week
period announced by tho nuthora of tho
forecast; but, from the fact that time must
be allowed for printing nnd mailing tho
forecasts, It seems certain that they nro
mndo at least ten days In advnnco of tho
latest date forecasts.
"The governmental weather experts say
that tho Moorc-Cnrothers system Is prob
ably based on the study of tho variations
In tho nebular radiations from the sun.
Tho surface of tho sun Is constantly throw
ing out spires of heat and light, which aro
never exactly the samo. They rlso nnd
fall Ilko tho surfneo of boiling water. These
changes nro measured by an Instrument
known ns a heliograph.
"From the variations in tho sun's radia
tion, an attempt has been made to link
them with weather changes on the earth.
They aro said to cause the "high pres
sure' and 'low pressure' arras which
progress across the earth's Burfaco as tho
planet revolves. From tho course of these
barometric fields, an nltempt Is made to
predict warm or cool weather, rain or frost,
,ln different localities.
"The governmental experts say that this
system of forecasting wenther Is not now
to them, but that It has never been adopted
officially because experiments showed that
It could not be dcpt.idcd upon sufficiently.
"The Moorc-Carothcrs forecasts bear the
printed Invitation: 'Keep n record and neo
If It does not prove 00 per cent, accurate.'
"Comparison of the Moore-Carothers fore
casts for Pennsylvania during tho months of
May with tho records of the weather as ob
served In the United States Weather Bureau
stations at Philadelphia, Harrlsburg and
Scranton (the eastern Pennsylvania district)
show that they had an accuracy of 65 per
cent. They 'guessed right' as to whether
tho day would be clear or rainy six times
out of ten, on an average, and they 'guessed
right' as to whether tho tempcraturo would
be rising or falling seven times out of ten.
"Tho local Weather Bureau stations, re
lying on all tho weather slgnB prevailing
only 12 hours In ndance, scored a percent
age of 78 as to fair, rainy or unsettled
weather, and a percentage of 80 as to
whether the temperature would rise or fall.
"Tho Philadelphia station predicted rain
locally on ten occasions during the month.
Six times tho prediction was verified, al
though on two occasions tho rain fell In nn
ninount too slight to measure. On ten days
In May rain fell locally when the local
Weather Bureau did not predict It nt all."

Gamerman, of 430 Durfor street, who dis
covered the blaze, awakened tho father and
assisted him in rescuing the children, who
also were asleep. Mrs. Brown was at a

$1000.
