QUIET REIGNS.

the Justice-Wal Defeat affray, has
about subsidized a number of i'm
plicated parties are now in the county
Jail at Virginia; the killed were bur-
ried yesterday; at Gold Hill, w. ID.
Shiflett, w. p. Kellogg, Michael
Cain and John Brown; and Michael
Kelley at Virgiria; warrents are out
for the arrest of other parties known
to have been in the hosting works;
and the Coroner of Storey county
commenced the inquest yesterday
and adjourned until Thursday next.
The evidence adduced before the
Coroner was too voluminous for pub
LEGATION in our columns to-day, but
was summed up very correctly by
the NeaOs, as follows:
T. f. Smith has been Superinten-
dent of the mine for some months
past, and on Saturday afternoon G..
+. Kellogg, of Gold Hill, received
kilograms from the President and a
portion of the Board of Trustees of
the company, informing him that he
was appointed Superintendent of the
mine and directing him to take i'm
mediate possession. We are also in
formed that Mr.. Smith was tele-
graphed to by some of the Trustees,
and also by a controlling stockhol-
der to hold possession at all hazards.
In compliance with his instruction,
Mr.. Kellogg sent his brother, w. p.
Kellogg, with several men to take
possession of the mine. 1t is evident
that parties were acting on the defen-
Sive, and the result was as stated.
Mr.. Kellogg was murdered treacher-
ously and in cold blood, and Mr..
Shiilett, one OF his party, was shot in
the back while retreating, and died
the next morning, The others were
killed Immediately, or died within
an hour. The men killed were gen
orally considered to be quiet, we'll
behaved, good citizens, and, altho Oh
they We're armed, we do not believe
they anticipated any very serious
fighting, but that the parties in poss-
ession would give up when called
upon. The fatal collision and atfray
occurred just after dark, and the
victims were of the attacking party.
Their names were: William p. Kel-
logg, aged ~ years; Michael Kane
(or Caine), aged 40 years; John
Brown, aged about 40 years; Michael
Riley, aged 50 years, and w. d.
Shiflett, aged As years. There are
various stories told as to the exact
manner and time of their death, but
the evidence adduced at the inquest
gives the correct particulars.
The excitement in Gold Hill, as
well as in Virginia, upon the receipt
of the news Of the tragedy, which
spread like wildfire. was intense.
The Sheriff and other officers OF the
law were promptly on hand, and a
strong guard surrounded the Waller
Defeat hoiStings works, situated at
the south portion of the Justice
mine, where the tragedy took place.
In the morning, however, the build
ing was found to be empty, none Of
those who did the terrible killing
the evening before being there.
How they left is best known to
sheriff Atkinson and
Constable IIarkin, Of Gold Hill,
however, succeeded in arresting
three sunday morning, at or near
Silver City. Their names are -
Prentiss, Thomas Murphy and Dan
Askew. Constable Harkin arrested
Patrick Peters, on the Divide, bet
ween Virginia and Gold Hill. They
are all in the County Jail.
