On afternoon Little I'ook, was the of a most leriible douhb' tragedy, which resuitod in two widows' arid Eve- children being thrown upon a cold world, and a son being murderer. At 1:45 p. m. Isadore Casat, aged about fiO years, committed suicide, and his on, Deno Casat, crossed over the railroad bridge to Baring Cross, and murdered Ceo. Barres in cold blood.

Barnes resided with his wife and 'one child, and was chief clerk for M. Richardson, master mechanic of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain, and Southern railway. The tragedy has caused intense excitement in railroad circles and throughout the entire city. Isadore Casat was for six or eight years engineer of the company's stationary engine at Baring Cross but was discharged by the master mechanic about three months ago.

He had been out of work ever since, was out of money, and had lost (so he said) out of his pocket a considerable sum of money belonging to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. He also claimed he had been discharged without cause. On man' occasions since his dismissal he has remarked that he intended to kill himself, so when he bid ais wife and children good-by, they did not dream he intended to carry out his oft-repeated threat, but he walked up stairs, went into his bath-room," look oil' his coat, vest, and shoes, took out a self-cocking British bull-dog revolver and pi icing the muzzle over his right eye, pulled the trigger, scattering his brains all over the room. Between 3 and 4 p. m.

Deno Casat walked into the oihee of the master mechanic, where several hundred men were at work, and asked for Richardson. Turning to the long desk, the end of which comes up against the long railing, where Barnes was writing, he commenced to talk about his father's suicide and held that Barnes was partly accountable for it. This Barnes denied and resumed his work. Being near-sighted his face was close to the desk. Casat, quick as a flash, jerked out a revolver and fired, the bullet striking his victim near the center of the forehead and plowing into the brain.

Casat fled but was pursued by officers and railroad men, who captured him soon after the trairedv and placed him in jail. Barnes died at 8:22. On Tuesday afternoon the wife of Dr. K. C.

HUMILITY.
