OAPT. SKINNER SUICIDES.
Captain Alexander R. 8k!uner, of
the tugboat, Parole, and au old and
well known seafaring man, ended his
life lu a moment of despondency yes
terday. Nothing had been noticed about
Captain Skinner's actions to indicate
that he even contemplated this rash
deed, so that wherxthe report of a re
volver was heard by his wife as she
awaited him at the breakfast table
she could hardly believe her ears. He
had been troubled somewhat lately
over business reverses, but had never
to anyone's knowledge thought of
ending his existence.
Mrs. Skinner ran to her husband's
rouin, and ber greatest fears were
realized when she saw Captain Skin
ner lying on the floor clasping a
smoking reolver. The floor around
him was covered with blood, which
poured from a wound back of the
right ear. The man had to all ap
pearances stood before the bureau
mirror, and, taking deliberate aim,
fired the pistol.
Drs Cockrlll and Cathell were sum
moned and succeeded in keeping Mr
Skinoer alive until 4:80 o'clock In the
afternoon. Coroner Billingslea was
notified of the death, but declined to
hold an inquest. Captain Skinner
was 47 years old and leaves a wife and
a daughter about 13 years old. He
was born In Richmond, Ya, in 1846,
and started on his sea career early in
liff-
He fehipped first with his brother,
Capt ThomaB B Skinner, of the
Cherubim of Richmond. This vessel,
with its commander, was lost in the
English Channel. Captain Skinner
then sailed on the vessels plying be
tween this port and Liverpcol. He
also commanded vessels of the Balti
more ajid Havana and Charleston and
Wilmington lines.
He owned the trgboat Parole. He
was a m- mber of Lord Baltimore
Lodge, Knight of Honor, and of the
Rescue Harbor Pilots1 Association.
He has a brother in Richmond and
one in Norfolk, both of whom are
cap'ains of vessels. Baltimore Her

RELATIVE POPULATION AND
INCREASE OF WHITES
AND BLACKS.
In the whole country the negro has
diminished from oneflfth of the pop
ulation in 1790 to one eighth in 1690.
He is less than two per cent of the
population iu twenty-four States and
Territories; less than ten per cent in
84; over ten in no Northern States;
over two per cent in only three States
that voted for Barrison.
Com etition in the border States is
growing more intense every year.
The result is a steady diminution of
negro population relative to white.
From 1880 to 1890 the white rate of in
crease in North Carolina was three
times as great as the black, in Vir
ginia ten, in Tennesree two and a
half, in Missouri four, in Maryland
six, in Kentucky thirty.
Freedom with its greater cares and
responsibilities, and its greater op
portunities for vice, has not helped
