THE ASSASSINATION OF FISK.
E New YORK, Jan. 7. james Fisk, Jr.
was shot at the Grand Central Hotel
yesterday afternoon, by Edward Stokes.
Fisk and friend drove to the hotel in
carriage, alig hted and had proceeded to
the vestibule, where he was met by Stoke
who drew revolver and fired three shots
two of which took effect, one in the shoul-
der and one in the abdomen. His assail
ant made no effort TO escape. Fisk was
conveyed to his room, and medical aid
promptly summoned.
The announcement of the terrible affair
created intense excitement, and many
friends of Fisk f1ocked to the hotel. He
was visited by VIM. NJ. Tweed, Jay
Gould, and Beldon, his former partner
He conversed freely and seemed calm
and collected, and made statement to
the coroner at 9 D. III. The assassin
Stokes seems to have been in a very ex-
cited and desperate state of mind, caused
by the pending of several suits in which
he is an interested party, and the adverse
decision of Judge Brady in the injunc-
ton case restrai ming the publication Of
certain letters of Fisk's in possession of
Miss Mansfield, and lis examination dur
ing the day as a witness iu the libel case
at Yorkville.
Notwithstanding the favorable symp-
toms that characterized his wounds at
first, Col. Fisk continued to grow gradu-
ally worse, and at few minutes before
III clock this morning expired.
