1907-02-12 | at Birmingham Quarter Sessions: NEW STREET STATION INCIDENT. Thomas Weldon (34), tailor, was indicted for attempting to steal a bag purse and 15s. from Mrs. Amy L. Patching, of 481, Moseley-road. She was at New-street Station, and felt prisoner make a clutch at her bag. "He got nothing," Mrs. Patching told the jury, "but as I thought it would be foolish to allow him to take something from somebody else, I called a porter." The defence was that prisoner, who was going to Derby, had pushed the prosecutrix as he tried to reach the train. The jury found him "Not Guilty," and he was discharged. |

KITCHENER'S LOSS SAID TO BE CAUSE OF MAN'S SUICIDE Bronxville, June 7th—The body of Alfred W. Binns, aged 55, of Sagamore road, this village, was found yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock on the roadway of Central avenue about a mile and half north of Tuckahoe road, near the entrance to the grounds of St. Eleanor's home, by Patrolman Michael Gilmartin of the second precinct, Yonkers. A bullet hole through the roof of his mouth, caused Binns' death. He is suspected of committing suicide through worry of the loss of Kitchener and staff in the war. Men associated with him in business, recalled today that Binns, who was a native Englishman had always been an enthusiastic pro-ally and some believe that the excitement over the loss of Kitchener, as well as ill health caused his mind to become temporarily unbalanced, during which state he shot himself. Binns was employed as an estimator by M. Power, 1 Madison avenue, New York. Near the body was found an old type, five cartridge, 32 calibre revolver. The weapon was rusty and apparently was a relic. Mrs. Binns does not recall its ever being in her house. Where Binns procured the revolver is still unknown. The revolver had but one cartridge in it. Papers and other articles found on the body gave not the least hint that he intended to take his life. After finding the body Patrolman Gilmartin notified the second precinct and Coroner Engle, of Yonkers, was called. The bullet had penetrated the roof of the mouth and entered the brain. Death was instantaneous. Coroner Engle ordered the body removed to Burr Davis & Son's morgue, Mount Vernon. Binns leaves a wife and four children between the ages of 5 and 12 years. The funeral services will be private. Interment will be at Kensico cemetery. |
