Aliened Suicide of Seaman .lohn AmlerHojl,
or t ile Schooner Hurry mid Grace
Iteyiiohls. other Items
of Interest;.
A innn perhaps sixty years old lay In
the courthouse square in litis city yes?
terday afteri.n, his head pillowed on
a coffee sack and his chest heaving
convulsively. A dozen persons stood
around him. sonic of whom thought?
fully fanned his fevered brow with
th.ir hats anil otherwise sought to re?
lieve his suffering, while others looked
?oi as if Hi,, miserable object before
t liom were a worn out drag-horse
breathing Iiis last. But it was all one
to the old man. who, even while he lay
there on the hard ground, had grown
so ?.-ak thai he could hardly fell his
name and whence he came. Drs. Peek
and Howe, who saw him, decided that
he was suffering from the effects of
heat, and they doubtless correctly diag
nosed tine rase, although it was one
around which suspicious circumstances
clustered.
?What is your name?" asked Dr.
Peek, bemliug over the prostrate form.
With an effort which seemed to 1k
piiinfill the old man turned Iiis head.
Then, as ho fixed his gaze upon the
speaker, his lips moved, but the words
that fell from them were so feeble that
lihey could not bo understood. Any one
looking upon the burning face of the
helpless man could tell that ho wanleii
t.. i. II his story, but could not. Still he
was asked to try again, and he did.
ant! i his time he pronounced his name
??William [??ahoy." he sai.l in a whis?
per that was barely audible to the oars
of Dr. I'Vek. Then his head fell back
ami 'he seemed unconscious of the fact
that ho was tin- main actor in the sad
so.-in- being enacted there. Fihey soon
became worse ami la; was sent to Dixie
Hospital for treatment.
But .oily part of this story has been
told. This ..id man was found early
yesterday morning in the vicinity of
ib.- Chesapeake & Ohio depot. The of
fieer who discovered him supposed that
he was drunk and marclhed him off to
i.lie county lock-up. Fancy staggered
as he walked through the square to Che
little one-story bake-oven in which
prisoners arc confined pending the com
pletion of ti-.- new jail. Of course,
there could be no better proof of drunk?
enness than Lhat. Who ever hoard of
a si.-k man staggering? Nonsense!
Sheriff Curtis was out of town at the
time of Falhey's arrival. Had he been
at the jail the old man would not have
b. en locked up.
In searching him a bottle of morphine
and a letter was found. There wen?
indications that part of the drug had
be. ti used, but it was not suspected
that fa lay had attempted suicide un?
til late in the afternoon, when he be?
came so ill that a physician had to uf
summoned. Then it was thought that
there wore indications of morphin?
poisoning. Dr. Peek soon came to the
conclusion, however, that the man's
main trouble was duo to the intense
lien I of the prison.
The I. ii.i- found in ["alley's pocket,
was written on stationery bearing th**
advertisement of Wood's saloon. It
was jiddivssed to George Wo...bin and
was couched in severe terms. From in?
formation gathered from it and from
other sources it. appears that the old
man-cur..- her.- from Dayton. Ohio,
where he was an inmate of the Home.
ITpon reaching Hampton he requested
admission to the Southern Branch, but
was not successful. Why, no one is
able to say. The disappointment made
him despondent and he wondered away.
Probably he drank, bul no one know.*
that he did. and ii may be lhat he
desired to end his life.
"WAS IT SUK'TDK?
Drowning of Seaman Anderson of the
Schooner Reynolds.
Shortly before 7 o'clock Monday, even?
ing the body of a white man was discov?
ered by the captain of n passing tug
floating in Chesapeake Bay near
the Rip Kaps. It was towed ashore
and placed ..n the dock. Coroner
Jones was notified and after carefully
examining the body decided that it was
that of John Anderson, who is said to
lhavc committed suicide by jumping
from, the schooner Harry and Grace
Keynolds.
The death of Anderson is surrounded
by an air of mystery which the author?
ities here are anxious to clear up.
There is nothing tn indicate that An?
derson was assaulted. but Coroner
.boles is not willing to accept the sui?
cide theory without evidence to show
that it is correct. On. Saturday Sher?
iff Curtis received a letter from the
master of the schooner, in which it is
stated that Anderson jumped over?
board. That was two days before the
body was found. The letter is writ
leu on stationery bearing the name of
Henry P. Havens, general commission
merchant and ship broker. S!i West
si reel New York. It is as follows:
??Fort Monroe, Va.. June 21. 1S9S.
"Kings County Sheriff,
"Hampton, Va.
"Dear Sir:
"In regard to the seaman who com?
mitted suicide by jumping from the
schooner Harry and Grace Reynolds
this morning. T will say bis name Is
.lohn Anderson, a. native of Sweden,
and lived in Brooklyn, New York, and
received letters at 10S King street. His
effects have been packed and are now
in my keeping."
"Yours respect f ully.

HIS LAST LEAP.
The body of a boy named Williams,
son of York Williams, of Phoebus,
floated ashore near the C. & O. trestle,
below that town, yesterday. The lad
went bathing late Monday after?
noon with several companions. The
boys, it is said, amused themselves by
springing headforemost into the water.
When it came William's time to go
down he made a long leap and quickly
disappeared... What happened to him
Is not known. After waiting for blip
to come to the surface his companions
became alarmed and ran away. Cor?
oner Jones viewed the body this morn?
ing but deemed an inquest unnecces
sary.
Y. M. C. A. MEMBERS MEETING.
A largely attended meeting of the
members of the Young Men's Christ

Monday night. Routine business occu
pled the greater portion of th? time. Tha

last night looking to the transfer of the
property to the association.

N'EW YORK STOCK MARKET. ?
NEW YORK. June 2S. ? Some of the
industrial specialties advanced today
jn buying, but realizing movement
iater In tobacco and Brooklyn Transit
unsettled prices and wiped out all but
jl few gains. The market was very
larrow and entirely professional, stocks
vhich were strong yesterday being sold
o realize today. The grangers at one
lime stiffened up to about last nights
lose on strength In Rock Island, due
to inside support and In part to Bur?
lington's favorable May statement.
But the suspension for the present of
he grain movement and the knowledge
hat the current earnings of the grang?
ers are falling below last year's large
iverage brought realizing and frac?
tional declines. Union Pacific preferred
was quite a marked sufferer from the
reports of rate cutting in transconti?
nental passenger business. The rail?
road list was very much neglected for
the most part, the demand for stock
having apparently died .away entirely
in spite of many favoring conditions of
business and the continued ease in
money, which seems to show no effect
whatever from any demand to meet
Julv 1 obligations or to take up the
government loan. The very light de?
mand for stocks Is not accompanied by
:vny pressure to sell large amounts and
the result is an almost stagnant mar?
ket. In which there is nothing to indi?
cate any o'hange.
