Suicide.

ST. LOUIS, May 25.-Coloner's in.
quest this morning on the body of ThOs.
7. Richards, whose supposed suicide
was briefly mentioned late last night,
elected the fact that he shot himself
with Colts revolver in his own home,
yesterday afternoon, the ball entering
his mOuthkilling himself instantly.
1t appears he has been suffer
ing from nervous disorder
and great mental depression for some
weeks past, and at times was in highly
excitable condition. Yesterday he was
much worse and Mrs. Richards sent for
the family phycician, but before the lat
ter could reach his room, after entering
the house, the fatal shot was fired. The
lury's verdict IL that the
act was committed during temporary
ALTERATION Of the mind. Mr.. Richards
was treasurer of the Missouri Zinc
works, was q man of wealth and cul-
culture, and his family relations are said
to have been of the happiest character.
The Post Dispatch, however, has state
ment obtained from detectives and
other sources to the effect that
| a woman whose name and where
abouts are not learned has been for some
time past claiming that Richards was
the father of one or two OF her children
and that she had been trying
to obtain money from him
lon this assertion. This is
denied by some of Richards most init
| mate friends, and is characterized by
them as q blackmailing scheme on the
woman's part, but there seems to be no
doubt that it caused him great anguish
and unsettled his mind.

An Important Letter.

ALBANY, N. Y, May 25.-The follow
ing letter was sent to speaker Sharpe
this morning:
SENATE CHAMBER, ALBANY, May %.
Hon. Geo. II. Sharpe, Chairman Of As
Sena6Ly Caucus COMMITTEES:
DEAR SIR: The Senate caucus CON-
mittee have given the question calling
the caucus together, the earnest delib-
Grafton which the gravity of the situa
ton demands. The United States Sena-
tors from this state have resigned and
thereupon the Republican members of
this legislature have the al
tentative of supporting or an
ton. This issue involves the integrity
of the party. The resignation of our
Senators has left the Senate of the United
States in control of q Dem ocratic major
| ity. The Republican party of this state
cannot submit reflections affecting the
| party at large to q decision of q majority
of the legislative caucus. No member
ought to be excused by caucus action
from individual responsibility, but
in join ballot in convention
of the Legislature and in solemn execu
tive session perform his duties as a leg
| islator. Each man should cast his vote
according to his conscience and the
wishes of his constitutions. We do not
therefore deem il wise to unite in a call
| for Joint caucus. We remain, dear sir
yours truly, D. Mccarthy, Geo. II
/ Forster.
While do not concur in the above
] deem it unwise and inexpedient at the
| present time to join in, or recommend 6
call for caucus. w. w. ROCKWELL.
