San Diego, CaL, .May 17.?Puraei Walton, of the

viewed to day, said that the Chilian man-of

l>ern p-issecl her on May 1, off Cape San Lucn.,.
The ofh'eers of the Esmeralda visitcl the Ne.v

their destination was some port in tlie I'liit-d

lnqulred as to the quantit.v uf eoal the Nc.vl>_r..
waa ^arrying, Md secmeil ilisappolntod when in
formerl that the steamer ha.l only n small quantity.
Walton says he hM no doubt tliat it wns the pnr
poie of the Eemeralda to stop thc Newbern at
?ea and take her fuel from her. but she <_nve up
the idea when she found tliat the amount car
ned hy tlie passen-er ateamer wns no small. The
puraer eorroboiated Captain Von Ilelms abonl se-.
ing another wirship much !ar_er than the Eamer
alda on the ninht of May 1. He thinks thla, alao,
must have been an Lneurgent ship. for tiu- offleera
oi ihe Eemeralda knew of her, and did not appear
to l.c tlarmed, ns would have been the eaae it
the ship had been Balmaceda-a Imperiale. The
olticers of thc Fsmc-nMi refuaed to tell the name
of the other ship when queutloned.

Oervaua system could atand it no longer, and he
iiad resolved to put an end to his _____gy hy kiUr
ing himself.
The other letter was to Henry <". Bofty. a lawyer
at No. _07 Howery. He informed Rotty that he
TO regfateted at the Eliaabeth hotel as John
Kot.h, of Albany, and that he WM ahont t<, do
pomethlng dreadfuL Ho maikd those 1,-ttcrs on
Satarday morning. and tliey reaehed their d.-stina.

Binder beld a oiifercnec, and dccule-l that no ___aa
waa to he tont in hunttBg up the emU'/zler, aa he
eleariy meant to put an end to his lif'-. They
reaehed Kli/.abeth about 10 o'cloek, and went to
Byan'a Hotel, made inojiiries and aearched the
re-ister, hut. .vith.uit lUU-U-",
They next ealled at the Sheridan House, and
on looking nt the rej-ister found Rindor's assumed
na_M ei.t.-red thero. Hc was oor upying Room No. 7
on the tirst floor. They si-nl ____*? <'. lanison,
Uie hight porter, to Bin.'.er's room to inform the

in his right twnple. The revolver lay bealda
him with two chambers empty and two loaded.
Hinder was lyiu? ou his back breathing famtly.
The news was gently broken to Mrs. Binder, who
f.iinted. Drs. Bridgman and Ofitr were eent for
and found tiiat the shote. after p__.sinn. thlOUgh the
front of the head, had come out over the left
temple nnd ladged in the wall of the room. Thc
guieide was dylng, and lived only until _ o'cloek
yeaterday mbrning. Beride th.e i^d waa found a
aheet of paper on whieh was writtcn iu iuk, in a

in his district, and at the death of Mra. i-irliora
Haiiseman under her will he and Froderick Burg
hard. of Nn. .'.27 Fourth-ave.. beeame theext-cu
tora of an estate left by her, valm-d at MO.OflO.
The property was in itocka and bonda. Rinder
was a lawyer, and he took active eharge of the
Kttlemrat of the affaire of The dead Woman.
Wben the woman died lt wns found that ner WlU
made no provision for her flon, on thc >_round that
he waa an illegitlmate offapring. He brought
.uit to have the will broken, but met defeut in
the eourta. The beneflolariea under tbe will were
rhe elght children of Jacob Schmttt, who lives
in Bavaria. They were to reeeive the amoun.

Binder oppoaed it. The Rurrogate ordeied an ao?
