DROWNED IN THE SALADO.
SAD DEATH OF CONTRACTOR GROIN
KEY AND WIFE.
They Went Fishing Yesterday and
Never Returned-Neighbors Went
in Search for Them and Fished up
the Bodies.

w. +. Cronkey, a well-known
contractor of this city, living at
No. Ills North Olive street, took
his wife and children to the Salado
yesterday to spend the day fishing.
They failed to return and the
neighbors became alarmed.
A party was gotten up, consist
ing Of John w. Marvin and Char
les j. Marvin, carpenters, living at
No. 1911 Burnett street Samuel S.
Snow, also a carpenter, who rents a
house from Mr.. CrOnkey at the
corner Of Starr and Monumental
streets,and Charles Lux,a grocer of
NJ .l302 East Commerce street, all Of
whom are friends and neighbors Of
Cronkey, and they went out i'm
mediately in search of the missing
family. They were soon joined by
G. Rippstein, who lives on the Sa-
lado, and the four set to work.
On arriving at the Salado they
found a;little. two-year.old child sit
ting on the bank. All the little one
could say was: "Papa in the river"
Graphing hooks were procured
and the search was begun. Soon
one body was brought to the sur
face and then another. 1t was Mr..
and Mrs. Cronkey.
The bodies were about ten feet
apart and the water is about IA
feet deeper where they were found.
There is a big willow tree on the
bank, near where the bodies were
| on nd, which leans over the water.
The %supposition is that either NJ +.
or Mrs. Cronkey were sitting on
this tree, fishing, when one of
them fell, and that the other was
drowned in the efforts to save the
one that fell.
1t is said that a hole or bruise is
in the back Of Cronkey's head and
some suspect foul play. Mr.. and
| Mrs. Cronkey are both said to have
been good swimmers.
They were married about three
| years ago. Mrs. Cronkey was for
merly Miss Julia Sutherland, Of
Corpus Christi.
Cronkey owned a farm on the
Salado, adjoining Rippstein's prop.
erty, but spent most Of his time in
| San Antonio.
Coroner Jones was notified by
John Marvin this morning at S
o'clock and he left for the place i'm
m%ediately, accompanied by Under
taker Mccormick, who 10Y has
the bodies in charge. When the
coroner arrived the bodies were on
the bank, covered with a wagon
sheet.
The funeral will take place from
the residence Of Mr.. Snow, corner
| Starr and Monumental streets.
Mr.. Cronkey was a member OF
the Odd Fellows lodge No. II.
