FE-SLAYER DIES;
CASE SUSPICIOUS
DIR. ANDREW cROPSEY WAS TO
HAVE BEEN SENT TO
CHAIR.

NEW YORK, July 29.-The case OF
the state against DR.. Andrew b. Crop
sey. of Bath Beach, charged with the
murder of his wife. was stricken from
the docket OF the Coney Island court
today
DR.. Cropsey died suddenly late yes
terday in his cell in the Raymond-st.
Jail. Brooklyn, under suspicious cir
cumstances.
Though the physician who, attend
ed him gave II as his opinion that the
murderer died of heart failre, it was
the opinion of several keepers In the
Jail that Cropsey committed suicide
to escape the electric chair.
He was found on the floor OF his
cell writhing in great agony. His lips
were blue and his eyes were set and
there were other symptoms he had
been poisoned. The fact that Gropsey
had visitors during the day led TO the
suspicion that he might have obtained
a drug with which to end his life.

JUST CUssEDNEss
JUDGE DuRFEE's DECISION IN
CASE OF oesTREPERous
HAMTRAMcK RESIDENT.

Martin Schrammel, who has caus-
ed all kinds OF trouble out in Ham
tramck township, was declared sane
by Judge Durfee, Tuesday afternoon,
and in expressing his opinion the
court recommended two good ickings
and a term In the house OF correction
every year as the best means OF max
ing the man behave himself.
Schrammel owns two lots In the
Robinson subdivision on which he has
erected a home. The subdivision con-
sists OF S28 city lots. The neighbors
say the old man claims 10 own the
whole plot, and It is his efforts to
keep people off the land that has
caused all the trouble. Schrammei
has succeeded fairly we'll in holding
the land for 10 years. and II Is saa
that II is his game to hold II for 10
years, when 1t will become his by
right Of adverse possession.
Schrammel was sent TO Eloise once
and TO Emergency hospital another
time when alleged to be insane, but
he was discharged both times. On
Tuesday the leading citizens or Ham
tramck. including Supervisor Russell.
Justice Munck and Drs. John Neary
and Edward Newton, testified In court
10 his strange actions. but Judge Dur
fee said It was just plain cussedness
and not insanity.
Schrammel will probably be pro-
ceeded against now In the courts, and
an effort made TO send him TO the
house OF correction.
