But I never dreamed of his taking his own life. They told, me at Vignier's today that Cuvellier had declared his intention of shooting, himself, so I suppose it was premeditated." PLANNED A VISIT.

over the tragic suicide of Former City Councilman B. C. Cuvellier of Oakland. A representtative of the firm stated to THE TRIBUNE this afternoon that Mr. Cuvellier's buslenss affairs were in excellent shape and he was occasioned no worry from that quarter.

"Mr. Cuvellier was last in this place of business on Thursday or Friday, I have forgotten which," said Mr. Michael, of the firm. "He has, however," been sick for the past two months or more, and consequently did tiot trouble himself very materially over his business affairs. "In every way, however, the firm's matters are fine shape, and everything Is running smoothly, and so Mr.

Cuvellier had no need to trouble his mind about the business. "When he w'as here last he still complained of feeling 111, but I noticed nothing which would indicate to me that he was or despondent. "While he was naturally a little depressed over his Illness and inability to properly attend to his affairs, he did not exhibit a symptom which would lead one to believe that he meditated ending his life. 'What paused him to commit suicide in so -tragic a manner I can not imagine unlev it was his illness over which he brooded. "Mr.

Cuvellier was always sf a cheerful nature in business and social life and he is almost the last man whom I would expect to hear of enaing his life. "It is regrettable a sad occurrence, and the sympathy of the members of the firm is extended to the family' of the deceased." Dr. Rinehart of Adeline street had been treating Mr. Cuvellier only four or five days. The doctor pronounces Mr.

Cuvellier's ailment as "nerve failure" from overwork. He was not sick but the nervous trouble which had seized upon his system prevented sleep, making his nights hideous and bis days torments. This morning Mr, Cuvellier called at. Dr, Rinehart's home, ate breakfast and said that he intended to go sea Julius Kruttschnitt's son. Dr.

Rinehart proposed arranging to send Mr-Cuvellier to St. Anthony's Hospital for a rest cure. Mr. Cuvellier said that he felt -much better than for several weeks. He said he would go and make arrangements for money to bi used at St.

The first time I ever knew of his connecting his name with her as his wife was the day following her death' four years ago. He had a case In court and had It postponed, telling the judge that his wife, had just died. "I have quit work to see that my sister gets Justice In this case. "It is true I had some trouble with Collins at the time of Agnes' death over $1600 that I had saved and given into her custody. He drew that money from the' bank by asserting that she had been his wife.

At the time of the disbarment proceedings .1 brought this matter up, but. could not prove it to the satisfaction of the court. "When Agnes died Collins let her body lie at the house two days, right up to the day of her burial, without letting her, parents know of her demise. They were very angry over it." FIRST WIFE PROSTRATED. Mrs.

Charlotta K. Collins Is prostrated over the stand taken by her husband, the bigamous relations he has assumed, the blight he has placed upon her name and children. She has lived with Collins sixteen years, and Is the tnother of his three children, George D. Collins, 15 years of age; (irnuel Collins, 12 years old, and Maty Collins, 7 years old. Speaking on the subject she said: a r- t- ii- I am indeed George D.

Collins wife and I cannot see why he should deny me," she "Agnes died a single woman. "I never knew of my husband being infatuated with any other woman and cannot believe he has forsaken me for another," she said. "He spent both Tuesday and Friday nights with me after his return from Chicago. He told me he occasionally went to the theater with Women, but that they were his clients. I expect him to come home to me after this thing is over.

"My reason for not making a state- ment of the truth at the time of the disbarment proceedings, when Mr. Col- lins claimed Agnes fiad been his wife. was that my son begged me not to, saying jit would bring disgrace and disbarment to his father and take away his means of earning a liveli hood. Now that he has married an other woman I do not feel that I should protect him." i Mrs. Collins is, willing to prosecute hejr- husband, in case he is guilty, but she still has a lingering hope that he was not really married in Chicago.

She will prosecute him for bigamy if he Her marriage to Collins took place in St. John's Church, she says, Rev. Father Connolly officiating. pCv CURRAN, BEST MAN. Attorney Curran, a long-time friend of Collins, recalls the' nuptials as foi- ilows: "I remember the occasion very well," said Attorney Curran, "and well I might for Collins and I were school chums and men who have gone to school together and witness each other's mar? riages do' not often forget these events.
