TWO MURDERS AND A. SUICIDE.
Triple Tragedy the Schooner
Frank Cassidy Near Colonial Beach.

Captain James Crockett and Mate George
N Sturgis of the schooner Frank Cassidy
were murdered Tuesday last by the colored
cook on the vessel, who was only known
by the name of BOB, tie latter committing
suicide by jumping into the river. Captain
Crockett was killed instantly, but Sturgis
lived for about thirty hours, dying while
being brought to this city on the steamer
Harry Randall.
According tc the stories told by other
members of the crew, the schooner was at
anchor in the Potomac below Colonial
Beach on the morning OF the triple tragedy
and the cook was extremely dilatory in
preparing breakfast. Captain Crockett
found fault with the man and reproved him
for it. Bob became very angry, and after
abusing and swearing at the captain ran
to the kitchen, where he secured a loaded
revolver, and returning fired at Captain
Crockett. The ball entered the unfortunate
mans heart, killing him instantly. Bob
then turned on Sturgis, who had gone to
the assistance OF the captain, and fired
several shots at him. One of the balls en-
tered Sturgis right side. infiicting a mortal
wound. The murderer then jumped over
board and drowned.
Sturgis was taken ashore at Colonial
Beach and carried to the residence of Mr..
John WalcOtt. where he was attended by
DR. J. W. Eslam, who extracted the ball.
He was made as comfortable as possible
and when the Harry Randall stopped at
Colonial Beach yesterday morning Sturgis
was placed upon the boat to be brought to
Washington, it being believed that he would
have a better chance to get well in some
OF the hospitals of this city. He soon be-
gan to sink, however. and died about
oclock yesterday afternoon. Upon the
rival of the steamer here the body was re-
moved to the morgue and Coroner Carr
was notified. There will, it is stated, be no
inquest here, as the crime was not COM
mitted in the District. Sturgis was twenty
six years old and had q wife and two or
three small children, living IN Northampton
county, Va. 1t is expected that some infor
nation as what she wants done with her
husbands body will be received from Mrs.
Sturgis by the police authorities very soon.

LIkENED TO BALAAM'S ASS.

Joseph II. ChOate Compares MIR.
Croker to That Animal.
From the New York Herald of Today.
When Joseph H. Choate in Chickering
Hall. last night observed quizzically that
Richard Croker reminded him of
Balaam's ass, because fright opened the
n outh of the when he found himself
In tight place, the enthusiastic republic
cans who crowded the hall despite the
downpouring rain shouted with uproarious
delight
The meeting was held by the Blaine Re-
publican Club. After the Diamond Quar-
tet had carolled lay about placing Roose-
Welt in the Governors chair Mr. Choate
was introduced by the presiding officer,
John A. Weeks.
This cordial reception" began Mr.
Choate lis almost as great a compliment
as the one | received last week from the
unctuous lips of Richard Croker himself
regard 1t as the highest compliment for
any respectable citizen of New York to be
abused by him.
"A great deal hangs on the fact that Mr..
Croker has opened his lips The dumb has
spoken.
He never speaks when things are going
IN the way to suit him. l ask you why
this shrewd and calculating politician at
TINS Lite hour has found it necessary to
open his lips?
His conduct, his speech why he spoke,
recall to my mind the familiar story Of
Baiaams ass. and in two of three points
Mr.. Croker reminds me of that celebrated
beast Of burden.
In the first place till the ass spoke no.
oody in the world imagined what per-
feet ass he was. If he hadn't spoken. he
would have passed into destiny as an
ordinary, silent ass But when he spoke
he was distir gushed from all other asses
in the land.
why did the ass speak? Do you remem-
Der the story?
Because he was frightened. Because as
the Bible says, he got into tight place
WherC he could reither turn to the right
nor left When he saw the one who bore
the flaming sword confronting him at last
he spoke. You can tell me who the young
man was who bore the sword.
Il think Mr.. Croker has done more to
promote the success of the republicans in
THIS campaign than any of our own men,
bers. He made the most important utter
ance heard in this land for the last
twelve months.
He said, Have you an honest judge on
the bench? Let me test him. And he calls
uron that judge to remove an honest of
fcial and appoint his nominee. And the
honest judge refused and Mr.. Croker said
Wen have no more such judges in New
York as long 1 rule Tammany Hall
and I'm here for life
No wonder a new and unexpected i'm
petus w3s given to our campaign. This
people will not submit to such an outrage
and | calculate that the republicans and in
dependents Of this city are ready to make
him an answer at the polls
