Fatal Leap.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Baltimore american of the 23rd. gives the
following particulars of the fatal leap
of Mr.. George. w. Henderlite, of Smythe
county, Virginia from the 3rd story Of
the Metropolitan Hotel, Washington, D. !:
A terrible tragedy occurred at the Metro
politan Hotel this morning. One OF the
guests, George w. Henderlite, of Marion
Smythe county, Va, jumped from a win
dow of his room on the third floor and fell
in the area below, distance of over forty
feet. He died about two hours afterwards.
Henderlte arrived in the city last night,
went to the hotel and was assigned room
1877, the windows of which face upon the
area or court back Of the hotel. He asked to
be called ia time to take the Z O'Clock train
for Richmond. He arose himself about 6
o'clock, took an early breakfast and return
ed to his room. As O'Clock drew near a
servant went to his room to remind him OF
the hour and found the door locked. Hen
derlite could be heard within talking to him.
self. About an hour later the servant re :
turned to the room, and being unable to
rouse him, peeped through the keyhole and
saw HeEderiite getting out the window. A
guest in another part of the hotel saw him
| about the same time. An alarm was givin,
but it was too late. The next moment Hen
aerlite had taken the fatal leap and lay in
the area below. His head. which had struck
a pile of bottles, was terrible larcerated.
When assistance reached him he was still
conscious. Physicians we're summoned, but
they stated that there was no possibility OF
saving the mans life. He was taken to
| Providence Hospital and died a few min.
utes after arriving at that institution. Hen
derlite said that a mob Of men were in his
room tryingto kill him, and he jumped from
the window to escape them. He has been
drinking very heavily lately, and it is
thought, his mind was deranged by liquor.
| Henderlite. who was well-known poiti-
clan, ran for Congress on the Republican
ticket in his district in Virginia about two
years ago and was defeated. He came to
this city about two weeks ago as delegate
to the National Observation-Disclosures confer
ence and took part in the proceedings Of
that body. Hoe. j. B. Richmond, who rep
| resents his district in Congress, took charge
Of the remains and will superintend theil
removal to Marion, where the family OF the
| deceased resides.
