With reference To the violation OF the laws against
the unlawful selling OF tickets IN lotteries; TO Inquire
into any violation OF the provisions Of the act upon
interest OF money, with reference TO usury: to
inquire into all offences committed in violation OF
the provisions OF the act to suppress ntemperance

TO the provisions of the to prevent frauds upon

Marriage, Abandonment, jealousy and sui
eide.
Some additional facts OF an interesting character
in regard to the death OF Francis Meyers who shot
himself at the corner OF Grand and Pitt streets on
Tuesday night, were yesterday obtained from the
relatives OF deceased. About six years ago Meyers
married Miss Brown, an estmable young lady
whose mother lives at No. AZ Pitt street, and soon
afterwards they went to Canada to reside He Sub.
seouently abandoned his wife, leaving her among
strangers and IN destitute condition. Mrs. Meyers
managed to gain means sufficient to enable her
to return to her mother. which she did ut the earliest
possible moment Since that time she has remained
with her relatives in the city and has seen her hts-
band at irregular intervals, who. however, con-
trbuted little or nothing towards the support OF his
wife and little daughter, who Is nearly live years
old. Meyers was sailor. and occasionally took
cruise on the western lakes, from Buffalo to chi.
cago Recently. however, he has manifested a
warmer interest for mis- family than ut any other
time since his marriages; and on Monday evening
last Meyer called 10 see his wife. ana during an In
tervew that followed threatened TO shoot
or Kill her II she was even on friendly
pistol and the family, fearing that he might arm
himself or Others, managed to get IL from him.
Meyers said he had comfortable apartments IN Buff
falo and asked his wife 10 go there aud live with
him, which under fear) she consented to do. With
this understanding he left the house. promising to
return again the following morning. HIS wife. hav-
ing intention of going TO BuIialo and not wishing
TO see her husbann again, went to visit her brother
in.law, MT. Edward a. Lloyd. living at No. sos
Brown, but failing to sec his wife, asked for
the pistol he LEFT there the night be-
FORE which some member OF the family
gave him, without even wondering what the conse-
quences might be- Placing the weapon In his pocket
Meyers extended an invitation to William j. Brown,
his protnern-law. living At 2S6 Division street. to
take walk, which was accepted. After going
few blocks Brown bid Meyers good night and started
for home. He had only proceeded . few steps when.
hearing the report OF pistol he turned round and
saw Meyers lying dead on the corner OF Pitt and
Grand Streets he having shot himself in the right
temple THIS was the first intimatlon that Mr.
Brown had that deceased had q pistol In his pos.
session.
Doubtless jealousy ana the refusal Of his wife to
live with him again prompted the deceased to take
hs life. Meyers was about thirty-one years OF age
and native of Germany. Coroner keenan, was
called TO hold an inquest on the body, The family
took charge OF the remains for inteTment.
