Mr.. John F. Seymour, formerly a WELL
known crockery merchant, and cousin and
Dlshop OF Springfield, ILL.,, was found dead In
the general theological seminary, in New York,
Frlday morning, by the bishop and the dead
his sister, wife OF John F. Seymour, has been
keeping house for him at the seminary. of
which he has been the dean. John F. Seymour,
ner husband, lived at the seminary also. He
been Ill, and he had been with her Thursday
night until 10 O'Clock. Then he said he would
go out into the grounds and drive away the
frequently did on moonlight nights he went
out and did not return. His wife became un-
easy and aroused the bishop soon after mid
night. Together they searched for Mr.. Sey-
bullet through his heart. The wifes cries at.
tracted policeman, and search was begun for
the assassin. There Is no trace of him, how
ever, and 1t is supposed either that some tramp

away, or that he was a victim of reckless fourth
OF July shooting by some passer Dy. The
the deceased is in danger OF her life.
The New York Sun of to-day says ga new
examination OF the body was made. This was
considered Cons @ necessary by peculiar mark on the
capped remark, although not unobserued by the
keen eyes of afflicted relatives. This mark
was an abrasion and flattening OF the bridge of
the nose which became more obersvable by
the settling of blood near the slight wound.
The family had frequently spoken of this.
and wondered that it had been apparently
overlooked by the authorities. DR.. Hudson
was asked to view 1t, and he gave his opin-
ion that it must have been caused by a
blow. This strengthened the theory OF mur-
ger, and tended to confirm the family In
tner conviction that story yet remains to be
told OF q midnight struggle OF Mr.. Seymour with
somebody whom he was endeavorfng to eject
from the grounds. Coroner Flanagan carefully
examined the body, and the theories based

low lowed Dy murder As stated by DIR. Hudson
the new theory is that Mr.. Seymour went out
that the man first made an assault with cane
or club, and then, meeting with determined op-
position, fearful OF exposure of himself and his
female companion, fired the fatal shot, and
escaped with the woman In white, as seen by
the ladies at 432 West goth street.
