Carl Little, who had a room In the
home of Dr., Herace .T. Williams, at
COOS Greene street, Gcrmantewn, com
mitted suicide early today by shutting

Befere he killed hlnnelf he wrote
letter te his slter, Mr. Charles S.
McKlnlcy, .112 Wj"it L'pi-al street, say
ing he was "lonely" and had derided
te take his life.'
Lltle was thirty-two years el(hsjid
apparently well off. He rarely mingled
with the people with whom he lived,
nnd they knew nothing about him. He
had lived there a little mere than n
year, but In that time lie hnd never told
any one what his occupation was or
where lie was employed. He left the
house usually nbeut 10 o'tleek In the
morning and returned shortly after 4
o'clock In the afternoon, lie did net
take hi meals In thn house.
He went out te peit n letter about
midnight Inst night nnd retired te his
room, which was en the tliiid Heur.
The letter was te liis sister.
Gue Ne Hint of Art
The full contents of the letter linn net
been divulged. According te the police,
however, be said in e many words that
he bnd decided te take his life, and l hat
the reason for lite net was his loneliness.
He had spent thi evening, it is snid.
with friends, nnd gave no Indication
that he was melancholy or despondent.
The letter was stamped "112 :J?()
A. M." in the (ermnniewii postellico.
It wns delivered in the first null this
morning. Mrs. McKinlev did net read
it until after her husband left the
house. She was horrified at Its con
tents, nnd notified Mr. McKlnlcy, who
hurried te Dr. Williams' heus-v, hoping
that he might yet be in time te jnevent
the Mikide.
Tt was about 10 o'clock when Dr.
Williams and Mr. McKlnlcy went up
stairs te Ltle's room. The eting man
had net been heard moving nbeut in
the early morning hours, but that hnd
caused ,110 alarm, .liecnuse. be Cus
tomarily dlil net appear until Kite.
Find Gas Oder
When Dr, Williams nnd Mr. McKln
lcy renched Little's deer a slight odor
of gas was perceptible. They entered
the room, and for n moment drew back
In astonishment, because apparently it
wns untenanted. ,
The bed hnd net been slept in, but
they noticed that the pillows were gene.
A glance at the gas jet revealed a bit
of rubber tubing extending into Little's
trunk
Dr. Williams Hunt? bark the lid of
the trunk, prepared for what he saw.
Doubled up in a cramped position and
resting en the pillows from the bed,
lay Lltlc's body.
Dr. Williams attempted resuscitation,
but life had been extinct, lie said, sev

QUICK RETURN PROMISED!
Following a four-dny-eld trail
through city streets Inst night, Karle,
a trained German police des, solved the
mystery of the recent disappearance of
1'eggy, n blooded animal of the same
breed, who wandered from the home of
her owner, Charles Tipton, C910 North
Mervlnfc street, last Sunday, and has
been sought since by all the children
of the neighborhood.
The trail led straight te the garage
of a handsome residence near Chew
street and North Park avenue. The
owner of the house at firbt denied any
knowledge of the deg, but under cross cress
examination by Mr. Tipton admitted
having taken the deg and later having
sent it away for safer keeping, In
spite of the fact that n Thirty-fifth
district license tag wns en the cellar.
Fnless Peggy is returned te her own
er today, the matter will be placed In
the hands of the police, Mr. Tipton
says.
Searching parties of children, bended
by Vernen Donoven, 5008 North Mer
vine street, hnd scoured the northern
part of the city several days without
success, when it was suggested that the
deg of Mrs. William Olark, 11!) Rich
mond street, try te trace Peggy by
scent.
After one brief examination of
Peggy's belongings, Karle, the canine
slucth, set off nt full bay, and raced
through the streets directly te the ga
rage of the heuse in question.
Mr. Tipton, being told by the owner
of the house that the deg had net been
there, inquired among neighbors, nnd
discovered that the contrary wns true.
He again confronted the occupant of
the house, and forded from blm the con
fession. He has premised te have Paggyy
back In her old huunts within the time
limit set by the owner.

PERIL TO ADMINISTRATION
By CLINTON W. GILBERT
fitafT Correspondent Kicnlnr Pnblle I-edfer
Covvrieht, ll, bv riihlie Ltietr Company
Washington. April 7. Secretary
Mellen, for the time being, has wen
his fight te protect his department from
a wholesale raid by the politicians, but
he has done se only through a com
promise under which there will be a
gradual removal of some- heads of
bureaus In the Internal Revenue
service.
The nine chiefs of the Income tax
unit against whom the political drive
is especially aimed nre B. E. Hun
singer, stuff division; O. B. Allen,
administrative division : D. S. Klm
brcll, personal audit division; F. R.
Clute, corporation audit division; C.
M. Justice, field division : S. Alex
ander, special audit division ; A. If.
Fay, natural resource division; W. It.
Campbell, review division, nnd Ed
ward White, statistical division. They
have among them mere than seven
thousand subordinates.
Tlie pressure upon the organization
te leergnnize this service Is enormous.
It comes, from the State Republican or
ganizations which want jobs and point
out that with it campaign coming en
they could get several votes mere te it,
precinct if ceitain men were taken core
of than they can expect te without
"recognition." The demand for jobs
is all tlie greater because of the busi
ness depression.
Inefficiency Seen
TliPre is n further pressure from the
se-called Income tax lawyers or experts,
politicians who have settled down here
In Washington te sell their pull te
clients who have claims that they have
been overtaxed, mostly corporations
wishing te set off alleged depreciation
against their excess profits taxes. They
want te see political appointees in the
Income tax unit.
And against the income tnx unit
lies the plain fact that It Is Inefficient.
Immense sums of money nre involved.
The questions are new and difficult te
solve and the men in charge of the
werK are necessarily second-rate men
receiving nt the most about 55000 n
year.
The demand of the politicians K
directed ngalnst nil departments, but It
is re-enforced by certain business inter-
