ACT OF SIS
Banged Himself In Bis Bam Id th3 ha of
treaker Street
NO CAUSE FOR DEED IS K?
Had Eeen in Scranton Late in the Af
ternoonHe Returned Home and
at 7.30 Went to His Barn Where
He Ended His Life with the Assist
ance of a Piece of Rope.
Georgo W. Sisco, cRrpsnter, of 510
Breukor street, committed snicido by
hanging hiinBolf last night in a bnru
behind "his residence.
Deceased had been to Scranton late
in tbe afternoon and had paid bis tuxes
and whs seen about the house until
about 7 30 p. in., when his family
thought that he was in the basement,
where bo kept some of his tools and
did some of his carpentering work.
At tbe time be committed the fatal
aet, his sou was chopping slicks in tbe
yard nearby, and heard no unusual
noise. At 0.15 be went to feed the
horses in tbe barn and saw hiB father
apparently standing on a bos. lis
spoke to him and, receiving no reply
went nearer, and, upon touching him,
found that he was suspended.
He gave the alarm and his brother-in-law
ran and cut down the body,
which was warm at tbe time, but it
was soon evident that life was eztinot.
Mr. Sisco was about 60 years of age
and leavssawidow and four chilJren,
viz., Mrs. Hemlock. Mrs. Henry
Realty, Burt Sisco and Grace Sisoo,
be yonngost daughter. He acted as a
special officer, at one time was con
stable of the Second ward and last year
acted as watchman at tbe base ball
grounds.
He owns the substantial dwelling in
which be resided on Breaker street, as
well as a farm of moderate extent.
No cause can be assigued for the
deed, as the family declare that to
their knowledge tbe deceased was not
involved in any difficulties, finaneialor
otherwise. A rumor spread last even
iug that be had recently been addicted
to drink, but it is impossible that bis
mind was unhinged from that cause as be
was known to be sober yesterday. Tbe
rops used in the fearful act was a thin
hemp rope fastened to the cross-bars
on tbe ceiling, about ten feet from the
floor, with a running noose, which he
affixed round his neck and then sliding
from a box gave bimself an eleven-foot
drop, which strangled him. Coroner
Kelley will hold on inquest this morn
ing. Mr. Sisco wag a member of Post 130,
Grand Army of the Republic, and
Lodge 833, of tbe Independent Order of
Odd Fellows.
IT WILL BE SATISFACTORY.
Street CcmmUolouor Kirst says Stmts
Will Be Properly Bepaired.
The numerous complaints of late regard
ing the condition of tbe Central city street
aud the fears often expressed that they
will not be properly repaired by the com
panies which have torn them up, prompted
a Trihl'XE reporter to interrogate Street
Commissioner Kirst on the subject.
That gentleman stuted tbat he wished
The Tkibone to aseure the people of
Scranton that tho streets will be placed In
as good n condition as they were before
the street car uud steam heating compa
nies began their operations.
"Before I would grant a permit to the
street car company," said Mr. Kirst, "I
demanded a cash deposit of $6,(100 as a
guarantee that they would repair the torn
up portions of the street to my satis fac
tion. The asphalt company has assumed
the responsibility of the steam heating
company's repairs, this arrangement hav
ing been made on account of tbe fact that
tbe asphalt company must keep in repair
for several years yet the pavement ou
many of tbe streets traversed by the com
pany's pipes. We have the bond of the
asphalt company for a faithful perform
ance of this duty. The law says that re
pairs to pavements must be doue to the
satisfaction of the street commissioner. I
have their money, and if they don't do the
repairing I will at their expense."
PARTLY CONSCIENCE STRICKEN.
A Tbiaf Eeturni That Part of the Booty
for Which Ha Hat No Use. v
The satchel which was stolen from Mrs.N
Owens, of Ninth street, while she was
shopping in the Fashion was yesterday
recovered.
A party who was entering the Trailers'
Bank building yesterday afternoon found a
satchel lying in the hallway, and as no one
about claimed ownership he turned it over
to Chief Simpson.
It is believed that the thief placed the
satchel there with the intentiou that it
should fall into the hands of the police.
An examination of tbe satchel disclosed its
ownership. The pocketbook which Mrs.
Owens says was contained in the satchel is
missing. No clue to the thief can be
learned.
