butthsrs Is strong suspic-
ion Of Murder.
Charles Anderson Arrested,
But Released When the Coroner
deemed an inquest unneces-
sary.-Hetrisd to shoot her
once and she had tried
to suicide.

Thursday night Of last week Mrs
Lucy Martin, a colored domestic at j.
j. Duncan's, came TO her death in a
mysterious manner. The circum
stances indicate suicide, although
there is some suspicion Of murder.
The tragedy happeped a little after :
O'Clock. The past several weeks dur,
ing the absence of Mr.. and Mrs. Dun
can who are in Philadelphia, Miss Co.
lumbla Duncan and the other mem
bers Of the family have been roomlng
al George Duncan'S. The evening Of
the shooting Miss Duncan went home
to give Sarah Jones, colored some
soiled laundry to be washed. She
went to the rear OF the house and saw
Lucy sitting alta table IN a small house
used as quarters for the servants. The
girl appeared TO be writing letter.
on the door sat Charles Anderson.
colored, playing with a dog. Miss
Duncan called to Lucy to get the
laundry. She did so aud Anderson
brought the bundle To Miss Duncan,
who took IL to the front door
* the residence, While she
and Sarah were standing there, a
pistol shot was heard and Sarah re.
marked that such business was becom-
ing too common to be healthy. In q
moment or so Anderson came running
around the house breathleSs and great
II excited. lie told them Lucy was
sick aud asked them to 90 to her.
They all went to the girls quarters
and were Mortified to find her lying on
the floor dying. A 3s.caliber pistol las
shcrt distance from her heard, with
only one chamber empty. The girls
clothing about the bosom was ailre.
They put the fire out and summoned
the proper ctilcials. The girl lived
onlya few minutes after Miss Duncan
reached her side.
The coroner was summoned. Ander.
son was arrested upon suspicion and
placed jail. After an examination
the coroner decided she had commit
ted suicide and he deemed an inquest
unnecessary. The prosecuting attor.
ney. however. asked FOR an inquest,
put was refused.
An I'm igned letter was found on the
table where she was seen writing. II

Just above the right breast and came
out through the left shoulder blade,
cutting, II is supposed, arteries along

Some thought that Anderson killed
her, asher husband stated that be had
tried to time or two, but owing to
thefact that no inquest was held there
was no charge upon which to hold him
and he was released from custody
Saturday.
Rachel Sprouts, ofGlenvllle, a white
woman, Is said TO be Lucy's mother,
although she went by the name Of
Lucy Stokes In early life. She was
reared from s years OF age by Miss
Kate Armstrong, OF this city, aud it
Is said she attempted suicide, when
mere child. Her husband, William
Martin, was committed 70 jail some
weeks ago in default OF bail for the
grand Jury upon the charge OF ASSAULT
ing man with hatchet. They
separated some time ago, and Ander-
son had been her lover since the sepa-
ration. She was about % years Of age.
