BUILD UP THE NAVY.

The New York Mail and Express e1-
presses the hope that the Senate will
withdraw its opposition to the construc-
ton of the four battleships and enable
the American navy to take it's proper
position among the navies of the world
AT this period, full of centennial MEM
cries of our birth as naval
power, remarks our contemporary, 1t
seems pitlful indeed that there should
be any hesitation in taking action wor-
thy of past national history and OF
present national interests. There is
declared Washington, IN his speech to
Congress in 1893. "a rank due to the

OF weakness. If we desire to avoid in
suit, we must be able to repel it. If we
desire to secure peace-one of the most
powerful instruments of our prosperity
it must be known that we are at all

These were strong utterances then,
and yet not more so than conditions war
ranted, and they are as timely now as
ever, If not more so. This country does
not need navy such as England boasts
OF, but we do need one such as will com

MURDERED BY HER
FRENz|ED HUSBAND
Nick Claussen Shot Down
His Wife in Cold
Blood.
NO MOTIVE IS EVIDENT.
The Killing Occurred in Mrs.
Foley's Home on Everett
Street.
SURRENDER OF THE ASSASSIN.
a Pitiful but Hopeless Attempt Made
by His Eldest Son to Prevent
the Crime.
SURRENDER OF THE ASSASSIN

Nick Claussen, branded with the MUIR
der of his wife, is behind the bars of the
City Prison and the woman who was the
victim of his ungovernable temper lies at
the Morgue with two ragged fbulfet holes
in her left breast and one in her left arm.
The tragedy took place last evening at
O'Clock in the home of Mrs. Foley at II
Everett street. Mrs. Claussen called on
Mrs. Foley early in the afternoon for the
purpose of engaging rooms, as she had
proposed moving from her late residence
at 120 Pierce street.
About an hour after she had arrived at
the house her husband, in a state of in
toxication, knocked at the door and asked
Mrs. Foley if his wife was in. Being in
formed that she was, be entered and went
to a bedroom IN the rear part of the house,
in which his wife was sitting.
They Immediately began to quarrel, and
Mrs. Foley, anticipating trouble, inter
vened in the woman's behalf and told
Claussen that he had better leave the house
until he had sobered up.
He took her advice and left, but in few

to any one walked to the room where he
had left his wife. He drew his revolver
from his pocket and fired three shots at
her.in rapid succession from distan ce OF
about three feet, the bullets taking effect
as before stated.
At the time of the shooting, with the
exception OF Claussen's 11-year- old son,
Willie, no one was in the room who could
throw any light as TO the cause OF the
shooting.
When the boy saw his father draw the
shining revolver, young as he is, he knew
that his father was abo1t to commit fear
full crime and he endeavored to wrest the
pistol from the murderer. He grasped it
with both hands and held on to it with
childish desperation, refusing to release
his hold until after two shots had been
fired. He was then shaken off in time to
see his frenzied father shoot third bullet
into the PROSTATE and bleeding form OF
the dying woman.
In moment the widest excitement en-
sued. Crowds began TO gather around the
house where the crime had taken place. a
number of policemen who had been at
tracted by the sounds of the shots forced
their way into the building and captured
the assassin, who was standing over the
body of his wife, the smoking revolver
still in his hand.
In the meantime Mrs Merritt, an ac-
quaintance of Mrs. Foley, had made her
way up the back stairs and into the room
where the shooting had occurred. She
.oosened the clothiug about the neck and
breast of the wounded woman and en-.
deavored to bring her back TO conscious
ness by applying restoratives. Her work
was in vain, for in a few moments the
| patrol wagon, which had been teIephoned
| for, arrived and the still unconscious
woman was started for the Receiving Hos

| journey, as the woman died on the way

was removed to the Morgue.

Boards Of Health and Ed ucation Trying
to Determine Upon a Plan for Its
Reopening.
The Board of Health and the Board of
Education held joint meeting yesterday
afternoon in the office of Dr. Morse on
Stockton street, the purpose being to ar
rive at some conclusion concerning the
Longfellow School, which has been closed
by the Board of Health, ard the Rincon
School, which aioins the Longfellow, and
which that board threatens 10 close.
OF the Board of Education there were
present: Clinton, McElroy, Henderson
and Knox. OF the Board of Health: Drs
Hart, Williamson and Morse and Health
Officer Lovelace.
The mem bers of the Board of Education
declared that it was of the utmost impor-
tance to open and keep open the schools,
and the member of the Board of Health
said they recognized that fact, but the
health of the pupils and the City was of
the first Importance.
Some plans were presented looking to g
temporary abatement of the nuisance until
the summer vacation, when it is possible
that the Longfellow School may be aban-
doned and other provisions made for the
pupils.
No action was taken, the matter being
deferred until the regular meeting of the
Board of Health this morning, at which
the Board of Education will be present
with their plans properly formulated.
