THE TRAGEDY AT BAxERsvlLLE.
Further Particulars.

lEVEN1NG TELEGRAPH SPECIAL CoRRESPoNDENCE.l ]
ABsECoM May 3.-This morning the peaceful
community of Bakersville. about six miles
from this place, was startled by the discovery
OF a murder almost as great as the Dearing
family murder. Mr.. James Yeates this morn
ing attempted the murder of his grandchild, a
little girl eight years of age. The following are
the particulars this morning at oclock:-He
went to his sons house twice, and went away.
He came back the third time, the little girl
being busy sewing carpet rags for her
mother when he asked her If she was going to
take a walk with him this forenoon. She
replied mo-" but she would this afternoon;
whereupon he caught her and struck her FIRST
on one side OF the head and then on the other;
the first blow with the edge of hatchet, the
second with the top of 1t. Her mother was in
the yard, and her brothers and sister playing in
the room with her at the time. He then went
home, took a razor. and wentup stairs, and on
his wife following him he pushed her
back. He went to his room and fixed
cut his throat, almost severing the wind
pipe, and then kicked the box from under
himself His wife giving the alarm, some OF
the neighbors went to her assistance, but found
him dead. 1t was all done in very few
minutes. 1t is supposed he had become Insane,
and on determining TO kill himself also
thought of the child, for she was great favorite
OF his; he has often been heard to say when he
died he wanted her to die also. 1t seems he has
thought of 1t some days. Yesterday he took
the little girl out on pond OF water near by. in
q small boat, three different times. 1t is SUP
posed he wanted to kill her there, but his heart
failed him. The child is the daughter of Captain
Washington Yeates. .

Failure of a stock Operator I'm Boston
Arrest OF the Principal.

BosToN, May 3.--A smart earthquake in finan-
clal circles dist urbed the equilibrium of opera
tors in State street and its vicinity to-day,
occasioned by the failure of one of the most
extensive manipulators in Franklin, Humboldt,
this city and Corydon in New York. AT about
3 o'clock this afternoon, Mr.. John Leighton was
arrested on a process sued out by New York
parties, and conveyed to co nfortable quarters,
where he will be confined, awaiting requisi-
tion from the Governor OF New York. ....
His failure is moderately estimated at mill
lion of dollars, one house having a claim
against him of near SS80, ,000 while his assets are
inconsiderabe. He was well known as one of
the most dashing outside operators in the
financial arena of the Hub. He was afraid of
nothing. and had the nerve and confidence OF a
lion as he was among the bears and bulls. His
failure is now the only theme of remark in the
streets and at all public places of resort, and at
present IL is impossible to estimate how serious
the disaster may be In quarters where his tracks
are not covered uD, ... ... 20

case they should persist in performing the full
amount of work.
Meetings have been held OF laboring men in
various parts of the city, at which it has been
per day. In some cases, Willingness has been
shown to submit to a reduction of wages for the
present The employers stand firmly, warning
the discontented, and offering protection to the
workmen. The latter, however, have in most
cases thrown up the work.
This morning mob of two hundred closed
all places of labor in Bridgeport The mob was
finally dispersed by q police detachment, by
whom nine of the rtngleaders were arrested.

quell any disturbances that may occur. The

tailed, and one hundred and sixty special
policemen have been sworn In.
