Tragical Affair in Missouri,

A correspondent Of the New York En-.
press, writing from CRANKY, Mo-, says:
A tragical affair occurred here on Sun.
day, 28th March. About ten o'clock, A.
NJ, four men came into CRANKY on foot,
without baggage Of any kind; they were
shabby dressed, and three of them were
armed with two revolvers each-one with q
Sharpe's rifle. An hour or so afterwards,
Alfred Bryson, citizen Of CRANKY, re.
turned here from Maysville, Ark. One Of
the U. S. Deputy MarshaIs of Arkansas
gave Bryson description of four horse
thieves, answering TO the description Of
these four men precisely. Their conduct
during the whole day being suspicious, a.
bout five o'clock the citizens determined on
arresting them. For this purpose num-
Der Of citizens repaired 10 The CRANKY house
and informed the men that they intended to
arrest them. Three Of them quietly sur
rendered, but the fourth drew a revolver,
cooked, backed into corner and raised it
10 fire, but F. M. Lewis, Deputy Sheriff,
fred and killed him instantly. The other
three said IT was all right, that he was q
De. perate man. Next morning they con-
fessed they were horse thieves, and had
been in Kansas. They are from Tennes-
see. The man killed had on his person
ST. O03 Is. two rsyolvers, and o memoran-
da book. The other three were pinioned
and started for Kansas in charge Of three Of
or citizens. They would not give their
names. The deceased's name is supposed
TO have been George Page; that was the
name in his memoranda book.
