)fls condition la now extremely precarious at te t'liy Hospital, to a hich instiiutiOD De wa haatlly removed. A little over a week ago Uieutenant K-r wan granted a leave of absence for one month. This was done at the request of his Walter, himself and Councilman Joe Scbweiiing.r. Jt was apparent to his au- perlor officers that hia mental condition bad, and Mayor Flelschtnann and Chief Mlllikln wtlUniiy granted him the vacation. However, thin ubwn from his poet of duty did not help his condition, tie ia of a Strang temperament and of a highly nervous disposition and worried constantly, laboring; under the Impression that net-ret enemies were undermining him duriflg his absence, and that he would never again assure hla duties as IJeutenant of Police.

At tiroes lie "would in a corner pt hbi room at his home and cry like a child. Ilia family endeavored to clear away these ue-luslona. His sons took him on Ashing trips with them In the hope that he would for get his Imaginary troubles temporarily at least, but their well-meant efforts counted "for nothing. He worried about a. mortgage on his house.

He fancied every man's hand was against him. Operations were per-formed upon- hia wife and benther. and tnese contributed tJ hia mental ailment. MIND O.IVB0 WAT. Ilia mind gave way Saturday morning when he left hla home at 7 o'clock.

It had been agraed between himself and his son liiat he was to meet the latter at 8 o'clock uptown. They were then to visit a physician. Ilia KOn Waiter kept the appointment, but hia father could not be found, lie became alarmed, and telephoned to Sergeant Henry Juegllng at the Third District Station to aid him in hia search. Walter told him of hia suspicions, but the two failed to find any trace of the father until 'Z o'clock yesterday morning when they abandoned the search. During the day Lleu-" tenant Berg purchased a 32-caliber bull-" dog revolver at a down-town- hardware store, and every chamber of the gun waa rilled at his request.

The) idea of suicide evidently occurred to him shortly after he" left his home Saturday morning. It was o'clock Saturday night when he showed up at Hunt's Hotel, at Central and; Carlisle avenien. Mrv Stahl. who conducts the hotel, waa behind the desk on the second floor. Berg made an effort to change his signature.

He was in a jovial humor, and talked and laughed as if- here was nothing unusual on his mind. "I would like to have a good room." said he. "We can give you one on the top floor." "What kind of light is In It? Gas. electricity or a coal oil lamp?" waa his next query. Has." was the answer.

"Oh. I would rather have had one without gas in it." said Berg. IHOVX TO A ROOM. He was nhovn up to the room, two windows of which open into a court. The win dows of the adjoining room are close to those in the room he selected, and it is an eay matter to reach from one window to the other, and turn off or on the wall gas jets in either.

Berg said the room was satisfactory. Then he summoned Joseph Hoard, the colored porter, and ordered a ottle of beer. He Invited the latter to take "a drink with him. He remained in the room a few minutea and then left It. going- across the street to a saloon which is in charge of ex-Detective Charlie Hudson.

Berg knows Hudson, and aaid: 'Welf. Charlie, you won't nee me again. are you going to do?" asked Hudson. "Never mlrjfl." replied Berg, "you won't see me again. I h.ope you will be one to put flowers on my grave." Hudson and the Lieutenant laughed and joked together for quite a time, and then Berg went to the hotel.

Upon entering his room he locked the doors and windows. He also closed the transom, disrobed and retired. He placed the revolver on the pillow beside" him. It was not until yesterday morning at 8 that he got up. In the drawer of a dresser In the room he found a large cheet of common wrapping paper.

He took this out, and upon It he wrote a farewell note. While engaged at this he removed the top of the wall jet and turned on the at full flare.

Toward the end of the note the writing becomes fainter and can hardly be deciphered. In the meantime, however. had moved the bed a few Indies closer to the gas jet.

He finally staggered to the bed. clad In hia underclothes, and lay down. He soon fell into unconsciousness. It waa after 8 o'clock when a chambermaid who was passing through, the hall noticed the odor of gas. She could not tell where it came from.

Ef fort were made to arouse tie occupant of Room No. but these failed. The porter waa sent to Central Police Station, where he told Lieutenant Watson that there was a nma at Hunt's Hotel who would not get up when called. The porter said he mtt5t te drunk, and Watson, little dreaming of the man's Identity, replied that he had a right to sleep in a rjoom he had paid for. However, he sent Patrolmen Thedick and Turnlpssed; to the hotel in compliance with the request.

Patrolman, Grampke had left the station houae five minutes before this, and he waa called In by attac-hea of the hotel aa he waa passing. When he reached the top floor of the hotel the chambermaid had got into the next room and had raised the windows of the room occupied by Berg. She reached over and turned off the gas. The door was forced and Grampke entered the room. He threw open the remaining windows and the doors and turned oft the gas.

He recognised the Dieutenant at once, but aaid nothing. He sent a man to call Patrol 1 and. then slapped Berg on the face several limes, partially reviving him. He waa placed on a stretcher and carried down to the patrol wagon and sent to the City Hospital, where at a glance It was seen that his condition waa danufcrous. The revolver was stiH on the bed.

It had cot been discharged. The news of Berg's suicidal effort caused the greatest surprise at headquarters. Chief Mlllikln was notified, and yesterday afternoon called at the City Hospital to see the Lieutenant. When the Colonel entered the ward1 Berg, who was in a semi -conscious state, lifted- himself on one elbow and with his other hand made a weak effort to salute the Colonel. The MeClymon case which Berg refers to in his note was recently given an airing in Police Court, and continued until Septem ber 'XI.

MeClymon. who belong to a former well-known family, lived on East Twelfth street. Bxaa was troKRiED. Susie Norman. a seventeen-year-old girl, had disappeared from her home on Fifth street, near Park, and her mother appealed to the police.

It was learned that she had been seen with Lieutenant Berg arrested MeClymon. and took him before Chief Millikln, who a flowed him to go after questioning him. When MeClymon left the Chief's office he told Berg that he was going to" sue him for damages. This threat greatly worried him. Later he and Patrolman Harnold swore out a warrant for MeClymon' arrest- Susie Norman, the missing girl, was found and alsoi arrested.

On the occasion-of Berg's first arrest of MeClymon. the former found In. McCly-mun's room 'a number of obscene pictures. Berg, waa worried. He did not know what charge to place against Sergeant Juegling Investigated, and with the aid of Harnold found a young woman who had posed for one of the pictures.

Lieutenant Berg is out of trouble at the City Hospital, As soon 'as ha arrived he Was hurried to the emergency room, in Ward of the institution, where no time waa lost In administering restorative and antidotes.

The' first step necessary was to stimulate. the sluggish for this strychnin was administered la copious waon. II 3 I i doses. The next proreddre was the administration of oxygen gas. The effect was soon forthcoming, for the patient iul kty rallied and the bluish color of tne features gave way.

Before he gained consciousness a vein In hla left arm was opened and the blood was drained, and In its place large quantities of salt and sterilized water were Injected. By noon the officer awoke to consciousness and was rational. Kvldently he suffered no pain except from- the wound in his arm. made by the opening of the vein, and which seemed to puzzle him, for he frequently looked at it. probably wondering how he had received It.

This complication, if it arises, will manifest it-aeir within 4S hours. SON VISITS HIM. was shortly before 3 o'clock when Walter, the son of. Lieutenant Berg, in company with Joe Schweninger.

arrived at the hospital. Admonished by the physician, neither remained in the room long. Walter with an effort mastered his feelings. He took hla father's hand and Inquired how he felt. Berg tried to smile, and managed to whisper "Better." When Joe Schweninger approached the bed Berg with a supreme effort raised his right hand, grasping Schweninger's extended hand, and aaid: "Joe.

you'll stick by me, won't you?" Schweninger with fervor ans-wered: "You bet I will. Pete." And then the interview ended. A half hour afterward, accompa nied by waiter Berg. Chief Mlllikln vis ited the sick officer, but the Interview was equally brief, closing with the assurance by the Chief that everything would be done In hla behalf that could be done. After leaving the sick chamber Walter Berg, commenting on bis father's desperate act, said to an Ehqcimr representative "Father's mind has not been right for some time.

He seemed to worry a great deal of late, and imagined his beat friends were his bitterest enemies. He also seemed to think that conspiracies I were being hatched against him. When his- condition became acute I took him to New Trenton, ostensibly on a fishing trip, bnt it was solely Tor the purpose of giving him rest. We were in New Trenton for four days, but father got worse and was on the verge of a nervous collapse. I will take' him away aa soon aa he recovers for a long rest ia the country."
