DRUGGIST HELD UNDER NEW ANTI-DOPE ACT The police are puzzled over the motive for the suicide of Robert Oeddes, seventy years old, of Norfolk, Va who came here several days ago In his big powerboat for the stated purpose of transacting business with the Traylor Shipbuilding Company at Cornwells. Whether tho outcome of the business deal was unsatisfactory has not been learned by the police, nnd they are tinablo to say whether or not It had any connection with his suicide last night. derides drank poison in a boathouse at Bocklus street and the Delaware River. He died soon after thn police of the Richmond Btntlon took him to tho Frankford Hospital. According to Homy Kllhnn, who owns the boathouo where Ocddes ended his life, tho man was apparently In excellent spirits a few moments beforo he wan found uncon scIoub. At the hospital It was said today that 111 health might havo been the mot:ve, but the pollco aro Inclined to believe somo other eauso than sickness prompted him to take the poison. Olllclals of the Traylor Shipbuilding Company said this afternoon that their knowledge of Ocddes was limited. Tn his younger days he was a ea t'jptaln, com manding sailing vesrels. Ills last ship W'as wrecked, and thnt fact, combined with tho passing of wlnd-drlvcn vessels, made It Im possible for him to got another command. Jlo came to tho Traylor Company last week with excellent letters of reference, nnd applied for a position where his knoi edgo of sailors' craft could be applied In the shipbuilding program of that concern. Tho only position that was open was that of sailor man, as It Is termed in tho mi lance of shipbuilding, the duties of which were to splice ropes In tho manner peculiar to seafarers Tills position wan offered him, and he raid he would accept It Then he disappeared, leaving at the ship artl his llfty-foot power boat whicli he owned and on whlc'li he had come from Nor folk. Yesterday officials of the company Insti tuted a search for him, and ho wan located In Ilrldcsburg. He said then ho was not feeling well, but would report for work when ho felt better. That was a few hours hefuro ho drank tho poison In the boat house. Officials of tho shipbuilding company are holding the power boat until tho police can locate datives to whom they can con vey It. So valuation has been placed on It, but It Is u stanch craft, capablo of cruising at tea, and Is considered to be worth at least JB.000.
