Gov. Fitzhugh Lee, of Virginia, ys: “Two distinct races are wrest- ling with exch other for political su- premacy. The question is, therefore, ‘whether the sonthern states and ities shall be retained in the hands of the white men or whether there shall be a war of races.

The crime is tracezble to an unbalanced | mind, caused by dissolute habits. The murderer and suicide had carefully planned the ce he com- mitted. A few days ago he gave to Charles Clark a sealed manuscript, which he requested him to keep and not open until some time in the fu- ture, saying he would soon go away and that the letter would reveal why where he would be. The papers were read to day and re- vealed the determination of Edward to kill his father and also his aunt. The final act was to be his own The son was once in partnership with his father in the business making whips, was worth considera- bla property and was married. Six ye@rs ago his wife procured a di- voree on the ground of drunkenness. When his pr operty was gone he led a bad life and got what money he could from his father until the latter refused to give him any more. The story of the tragedy is a brief one Mr. King was lying asleep in bed and his wife, who had not un- dressed, was on a sofain the same room. It was about 2 o'clock when she was awakened by revolver shots. The son had stolen throught the sit- ting room and without a word aimed closely and fired three shots into the body of his father.
