men named Walters and Pasohall were
murdered by some person unknown. At
ten o'clock they passed through Fairbury
in wagon. just after leaving the viii
lage young man on horseback was seen
to ride up by the side of the wagon, get
in, and hitch his horse to the tail of the
wagon. This young man has not been
seen or heard of since the murdered men
were found He is supposed to be the
murderer. 1t seems they had encamped
for the night, and they were evidently en-
gagged in getting grass for their horses
when they were shot. Each men had bull
let holes through their heads, entering
from behind. There was terrible state
of excitement after the murder was discov-
cred, and if the murderer is caught he will

Yesterday a woman named Annie
Grady was found in house on Front
street, between Washington and Poplar
streets, suffering intensely from knife
wound received by her at the hands Of a
roustabout named Larry Gibbons. Off
GERS Hicks and Clements investigated
the case, and learned that Gibbons, after
abusing the woman, drew large pocket
knife and drove it into her back, the
blade reaching the lungs. Gibbons was
found by the officers in an adjoining
room, and he made desperate resist
ance. He attempted to draw his fatal
knife, but one of the officers knocked
him down with a pistol and prevented
such movement. He had to be tied on
dray and hauled to the station-house.
Gibbons is rough customer and des-
perate character. He was examined be-
fore Recorder Scales this morning, and
