ATTrMPT TO KILL AND SUICIDE About II
O'Clock yesterday, an intense excitement wa'
created in the vicinity Of Morton and Hudson sts,
in consequence Of the suicide in the street OF
man named Daniel Sanders, after attempting to
shoot Mr. John Morgan the Assistant Superin-
tendent Of one of our charitable institutions. Mr.
81. was engaged 10 moving, and on the corner OF
Greenwich and Christopher SITS. no met Sanders
who followed him down Greenwich to Morton and
10 Morton about half the distance TO Hudson
He then passed Mr. NJ and faced round and fired
at him The ball rolled out of the pistol before 1t
was fred, but the full charge OF powder was
lodged in bis face. A daughter OF Mr.. Morgan
was walking with at the time. Sanders, seeing
that he had not effected his object retreated
short distance and fred another pistol at Mr. NJ,
but without injuring him. Without waiting to
see the effect Of bis shot, Sanders drew dagger
and plunged it into his own side several times,
causing almost instant death. Saunders was
W eshman, about 81 years OF age, aud had been
twice married. By bis first wife he had TWO
children, now living in this City. His second VIE
WAS daughter Of Mr.. Evan Lewis. At the time
of his no carriage to her. he was in sfi0ent clrcum'
stances. About ten years since he lost bis prop
erty, and becoming disspated and unable to
take care of bis wife, she left him and accept
ed the station Of housekeeper in the family
Of a gentleman up town, in which place she still
remains. After her separation from him ne was
al xous to see her, and they have had frequent
interviews at the residence Of Mr.. Morgan. Or
ate he had been 90 excited at these interviews,
and had used such boisterous, indecent language,
that he had been prohibited from seeing her. On
Wednesday night Saunders told the lady with
whom he boarded that be Loaf bis property by
endorsing for his wifes brother that she hal left
for the purpose Of living with another man, and
that she was then residing With him. he was
much excited, and was undoubtedly deraDged, as
the statements made to his landlady turn out on
investigation, TO be untrue in every particular.
The remains Of the deceased were taken to
bis former residence. where an inquest was held
by the Coroner, and the particulars Of his death
were given In evidence. The Jury returned
verdict that the deceased came to his death by
wounds inflicted by his own hand, while partially
insane. By direction of his wife, the body was

rected to have it properly inferred
