THE POSTAL CAR MURDER.
SINCLAIR STABBED BY A FELLOW CLERK.
THE RESULT OF BITTER QUARREL-oNE OF MANY
IN THE LAST YEAR.
rBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. I


Ioston. June 1.-THE mystery in regard 10 the
murder Of ]. 6. Sinclair, the postal clerk who
was killed in his car on Saturday night, has been
solved. Three men were employed to handle the
mail in the car, S. Lyman Hayes, A. G Sellon and
tho murdered man. Hayes was head clerk and
had little to do with his subordinates. Sellon and
Sinclair for the last year have not been friendly
terms An effort made some time ago TO
mt them on different routes, but it was not done.
AS the men worked in the mail car it was custom
ary for Sinclair TO stand between the Others, by
the side Of Sellon, who had the forward part of
the car where the letters were pigeonholed for
the different stations. Hayes was busy at his
work when he aroused by hearing the two
men engaged in a severe wordy conflict He
knows nothing of any trouble between the two
men Saturday which would have led them to
become enraged at each other, but it is his
opinion that Sinclair made some halfjeSting re-
mari which caused Sellon 10 lose his heao ard
become angered. He knows that Sinclair was
impulsive and often acted hastily, and that if
he thought Sellou had insulted him, or had be
come enraged at nothing, he would Immediately
resent it. Hayes began TO talk to the men, He
urged them TO deSist remarl1ing that If the De
partment heard of it there might be trouble for
both Of them, and they might be compelled TO get
work elsewhere. This failed TO have the paci-
fying effect intended and Hayes resumed his
work but was startled moment later TO see the
two lnen wrestling with each other. Sinclair
WAS a short, thick-set man. very strong for one
of his age while Sellon is taller more wiry, but
not so powerfully built. Suddenly, in fit of
ungovernable rage, SellOn seized the large knife
which is used by the head clerk in cutting the
twiae around packages Of letters and made a
lunCe at Sinclair, burying it deep in his side. The
blood spurted from the wound in stream and the
unfortunate man unconscious in few mo
nents They took him over t. the mail bags
and laid linn down, and the rest OF the story has
been told.
After the tr IN started Sellon threw the knife
away. and this afternoon it had not been found
HAYES stood in the middle Of the car, by the side
Of the paper sack. during the quarrel lie WIT

ST. Louis, June H." The Globe Democrat puo-
llshes the following this morning:
"Mr. Depew will not be candidate. This ex-

In his confidence, and is regarded BY the recipient as
authoritative. The explanation Of Mr.. Depews
position is this He has satisfied himself by carel
inquiry that he IS not the most available man for the
party to nominate. He believes that he could carry
York, but he believes that his record as rail-
road president and corporation lawyer might cost
some Northwestern electoral votes. Having satsned
himself on this score, he counts himself out OF the
list.
The letter which contains this very interesting blt
Of also brings tho nfo nation that there is no
likelihood OF the New-York delegation acting together
In the support OF any candidate. Assurances
had been given Mr. Depew OF nearly the entire vote
