Dusing, of 175 East Thirteenth Street, Covington end his life by shooting himself in a box car, in which he was found –in Cincinnati or in Hamilton, O.? This is the question being investigated by Coroner Weaver, of Cincinnati, and Coroner ?.D. Thowmy, of Hamilton. In all probability Dusing committed suicide for in his clothes were his gold watch and some money. If he had been robbed his pockets would have been rifled. He was engaged with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, and it was in its car that the lifeless form was found. It is in the opinion of many that Dusing, despondent, took his life in Cincinnati and later the car was sent away with the remains.
