A Lamentable Affair.

New YORK, Dec. 27.-Latc this
morning an officer was called to $50
west fifty;third street, where he found
"a man named Meyers, his wife and
child in bed. The former was insen-
sible and the child dead from pistol
shot wounds. 1t is supposed that
Meyers did the shooting.
/ Later information from the scene of
the tragedy at West SD st. this NOR.
ming states that the name of the man
was Monroe S. Minister, employed in
the Office Of the society for the pre-.
vention of>cruelty to children, as jan
itor and interpreter. Minister had
lived in the apartments where the
murder occurred for several months,
and about seven this morning groans
were heard by woman living in an
adjoining apartment who gave the
alarm and the room was broken into.
when the senseless bodies of Minister,
his wife and the dead body of his
child were found. The man and wife
were taken to the hospital, where the
doctors pronounced their wounds fa-
tai. From the positions Of the par.
ties and the bed it is supposed that
Minister first shot his child, then his
wife, and lastly himself. All parties
