WHY THE BENNINGTON DID NOT GO.

The new cruiser bennington did not go with the
Squadron Of Evolution to Fishers Island Saturday
for several reasons, which may be summed up into
drydocS at the Navy Yard to-day to have her rudder
readjused and also have her hun cleaned. 1t was
discovered few days that her rudder could not
be moved way or the other, and II has either
rusted in the pntes something has lodged against
it, There has also been much WORK to be done
about her machinery her decks, and the quarters for
both officers and crew. that II not possible to get
her ready. Then too, she has only about twO-tlnrds
of the complement Of her crew, and there are not
enough men available to FIJI it up, especially OF fire
men. This embarrassing condition of things has been
noticed frequently, and will exist until the number
allowed by Congress Is Increased.
Tho vessel is to be ready TO go 10 sea with the
Board OF Inspection August 10. This is TO de-
termne whether she comes up TO the conditions OF

SHOT HIMSELF IN HIS CELLAR.
A GLASS MANUFACTURERS SUICIDE.
HIS FAMILY SAY HE WAS PROSPEROUS AND

HIS FAMILY SAY HE WAS PROSPEROUS AND
HApPY-HE HAD BEEN OUT ALL NIGHT.
Jacob Van Staden, glass manufacturer, was
found dead in the cellar of his home, No 262
Graham-ave., Brooklyn, yesterday having
it is believed, committed suicide By
shooting himself with a 32.calibre revolver
The bullet entered the head behind the
right ear, and death must have been in
stantanous. There seems TO be considerable myS-
terry as to why lie took his ife and his family are
unable to throw any light on the case.
The suicide had been engaged with his brother
in the glass manufacturing business for about four
months in Jersey City, and frequently spoke TO
his wife of their success. lie did not reach his
home ia Graham-ave on Saturday night as had
been his custom, and it was 8 80 o'clock yes
terday morning when he arrived Mrs Vas Staden
was about leaving the house to go to mass when
he entered. Turning to his wife, he asked her
if she would soon return. Mrs. Van Staden re-
piled that she would be back in half an hour,
and the suicide said lie would take a nap on the
bed until she arrived.
That was the last of him alive by his
family. When Mrs. Van Stoden did return, her
husband was not to be found. With her eldest
daughter Annie, she started to search for him
At IL o'clock Mrs Van Staden went into the
cellar. Where she was hOrrilicd to find her hus
band lying dead. Blood was oozng from the
bullet wound in his head, and beside him lay
the revolver, two of the chambers being empty.
When reporter called at the house last night
Mrs Van Staden said she could give no reason for
her husbands act. Where lie had spent the
night she was unable TO say. He was not drink
ing man and was greatly attached to his family
Mrs Van Staden declared that their domestic
relations were most happy. She said that her
husband did not carry revolver, and she was
unable to account for the one in his possession
with which he killed himself. According to her
story there were two bullet wounds in the dead
mans head, although the police declare there was
only one. Detective lime, of the Sixth Precinct,
who detailed to investigate the case, when
seen said he had not examined the body and was
unable TO tell whether there was more than
one wound or not IL could not be learned last
night whether there were two bullet wounds or
not, as Coroner Lindsey, when spoken to, said
he had not viewed the body, but had instructed
Dr. CTcamer TO make a pOst-mortcm eXamlna-
ton to-day.
The reporters not permitted to examine
the body, as Mrs. Van Staden said she had been
instructed by the police 10 allow no one TO see it.
