ANOTHER HoMrcIDE-Early on last Monday morn
ing, Nov. 7th white man named Michael Moloy was
Killed, on Buena Vista Bar, by Chnaman. From
the evidence given before the Coroners jury we learn
that Moloy left Idaho City about o'clock A. NJ of the
7th, somewhat intoxicated and instead of going home
to the residence of his sister, Mrs. Foy he went to
the cabin of miner named Mcmillan and wanted to
get in and stay all night. but refused admttance
From there he evidently went direct to Chinaman's
cabin and broke open the door, and while engaged in
doing shot at by the Chinaman. Shortly after
that the Chihaman went to cabin occupied by Mr.
Donald Grant and Angus Mclaughlin and stated that
white man had tried to rob him, and that he had
killed him. They did not believe him, and conse-
quenty did not get up. but about 10 minutes before
O'Clock A.. NJ. the Chnaman returned and woke them
up, and upon opening the door the Chinaman told
them the particulars and handed Mr. Grans his pistol
and knife. He in his drawers and slippers, his
head was badly cut and he otherwise bruised and
injured. Messrs. Grant and Mclaughlin got up, and
on repairing to the spot indicated found the body of
Michael Moloy about twenty steps from the China
man. cabin. He had received one cut ON the right
shoulder. the face, nine deep cuts in the
left side and about the spine. His entrails We're
protruding from two of the wounds Nine Of the
cuts, or stabs, were in spot that could be covered
by mans hand. The Chinaman surrendered him.

they committed him TO the county jail On examin-
ing the Chinaman's cabin the wooden bolt or latch
was found broken OH and lying the floor and ev.
