Another homicide to add to the long list of those already committed, and for which the accused are walting trial, occurred in South Washington Sat urday night, Robert B, Morris, white, being killed by Beverly Jones, allas Hickey, colored. Both men were employed as drivers by Stephenson's Express Company, and had turned in their teams Saturday night to the company’s stable in Desmond’s alley, between Ninth and Tenth and E and F streets southwest. Morris had obtained during the day 4 BOTTLE OF WHISKY FOR SUNDAY, and through fear of breaking it he hid the bottle under some straw in one of thestalls, Both men were putting away their teams, and when Morris Was fintshed and ready to start home to Join his family he learned that Jones had been enjoying some of the Whisky he had obtained for Sunday. Morris complained to the stable boss, an old col- ored man named John Gibson, of Jones’ conduct, which the old man considered reprenensibie, for When Junes appeared the old man accused hin of drinking from Morris’ bottle, but Jones declared that he was innocent of the charge. ‘The old man, however, had an eye witness to the transaction in the (person of Morris’ eight-yeut-old son. Jones persisted in his denial anc CALLED THE BOY A LIAR, Morris had been stazfding by saying nothing un- tilhe heard the negro call his sonaliar, This was more than he could stand, and, in a threaten- ing tanner, he approached Jones and said: “Don’t you dare call my son a liar.” “Mind your own business,” sald Jones, “or Il punch your eye out with this umbrella,” at the same time an old umbrella, which he held in his hand, as though he meant to carry his Uureats into execution. Morris evidently vecame frightened at the threat made by Jones and began to retreat, Dut as he stepped back Jones raised the umbrella,’and was a8 good as his word, for he Sprung forward as Morris retreated and. MADE 4 LUNGE aT HIM with the :umbrella, and buried the point of the stick In Morris’ right eye. ‘The blinded man stag- gered, and would have fallen to the ground had not Dennis Newman caught him. Jones was not Satisfied with What he had already done, for while Newman held Morris in his arms Jones renewed fhe war with, his umbrella, and began beating Morris over the head. Gibson stepped up ani Stopped further hostilities, and_a_tew minutes later Jones left for nls home, No. 1822 E street northwest. | Morris was lald on a bundle of straw, and the stablemen washed and bandaged his eye. He was afterward removed to his hoine, No. 328 Virginia avenue southwest. ‘The matter was kept from the police until about 3 o'ciock yesterday afternoon, when Morris was so low that Dr. Rielly Was sent ‘for, ‘The doctor was unable to render any assistance, as the wounded man’s end Was not far of, and HE DIRD A FEW MINUTES LATER. ‘The doctor reported the facts to the police, and Sergeant Daily and a squad of ofivers were sent out in search of the murderer.

While the oiicers were waiting for some one to ‘open the door Jones was getting dut the back way, and he made a break for the flats, expecting to es- cape as Frank Heldinan did a week ago. ‘The off! cers saw him going across the commons, and with the patrol wagon they started for him.” He took tothe rough ground, where the wagon could not follow hiin, but in’a few minutes the officers gained on nim and called to him to stop.

Deputy Coroner ‘Tyler, made an autopsy, and found that the umbrella Had pen- etrated the bone ead the eye, and had en- tered the brain, causing hemorrhage, which was necessarily fatal The Jury heard the testimony of eye-witnesses to the difficulty, and returned a Verdict holding Jones responsible for Morris’ death.

It was agreed that the depot ‘should not be located east of Washington street, and it 1s probable that the road would’ not have Deen perinitced togo to the river, but Its managers with shrewdness procured a vote on the subject, and, wheu the vote came, it was on. the question “shall the trains go to the river by horses or by steam?” As tle opponents of the exten- sion to the river did not care whether the trains went there by steam or by horse-power, the vote was largely in favor of steam, but the depot was Kept west and located in the flelds on Henry and Duke streets, and ver soon houses began to rise around it.

Mrs, Dr. J. Randolph Walton, who resides in this city, yesterday received word from Bay Ridge that her son, Charles W. Irie, had committed suicide by hanging bimself to a tree near there. Thrle 1s about thirty years of age, and had been em- ployed at Bay Ridge. He gave up his sttuation there about three weeks ago and came here to visit his mother, returning to Bay Ridge last Wed- nesday. He was last ween alive some ume Friday night. He selected a pine tree in a thicket near “Scull Hull,” about one mile from Bay Ridge, from a limb of which he ended his life by hanging him- self. It appears that he took a slender twine and made a siip-knot and, throwing the loose side over the limb of a pine tree, stood up and puiled on the cord until he was suffocated. is face was Scratched by his finger nails. ‘The branch of the tree over which the line rested had been scraped, robably by the weight of the Lody. lie Was. I~ g on his back, the ieft arm under him, when found, and the’ supposition 1s that he threw the Tope over the limb and then pulled until he be- came suffocated and fell backward. ‘The limon which the rope loosely hung was six feet trom the ground. ‘The body was discovered by Williatn Wieser and wife, Dantel Clark and “Altes Dillon, Who had gone Yo have an oyster roast at “se Tnrie formerty lived in St. Mary’s county. He leaves two children, one of them an infant, Among his effects in possession of the coroner is a lever from his mother, dated College Station, August &, and post-marked Bullimore. It is asympatheue letter, consoling her son on the death of his wife, whicli occurred the day before. A watch, whic had stopped running 16 minutes after 9, a pocket~ knife, some cash, a postage-stamp, and’ handker- chief were the other contentsof thepockets. Those who saw the body and noticed the contracted muscles of the face, clenched teeth and distended neck, and called to mind the surroundings of the tragédy, remarked on the great nerve that must have been displayed by Ihrie in taking his life. ‘The fact was recalled that_he behaved curiously at the death of his wife, who was a daughter of Daniel Medford, She died in Baltimore, and was brought to Annapolis for burial, When the under- taker requested everybody to leave the room Ihrie whipped out a revolver and declared noman could drive him away from his dead wife. It 1s sald he had threatened to soot bis wife a short time be- fore, When she Was sick, Chief ot Police Martin was sent for, and Ihrie Was made to leave we house. ‘The body was removed to Annapolis, where Jus- tice Gray held an inquest, and a verdict of suiciae was rendered, Mrs, Walton and her husband went to Annapolis yesterday evening and took charge of the body. —-__ A POKER Game INTERRUPTED.—Saturday nigh!
