SUICIDE in SAN FRANCISCO -- An unknown man called at the Brevort House, in San Francisco, on Friday, and engaged a lodging room, to which he retired. In an hour or 2 a quantity of blood was discovered dripping upon a bed in the room immediately below. On breaking open the door of the upper room, the man was found on the bed dead, with his throat cut, and an incision in one of his arms. He had evidently committed suicide by means of a pocket knife, which was still grasped in his right hand. There were no papers in his pockets or other evidences by which he could be identified. The following morning Grant ISRAEL visited the morgue, and identified the body as that of his brother, George L. ISRAEL. The deceased had been engaged in business at Antioch, where he leaves a wife and several children. No reason can be ascertained for the perpetration of the fatal act.
