A $1,000 Murder.
THOMAS BEAN ALLEGED TO BE THE AssAs-
SIN or TwTTCHELL AND KING
AT COUsHATTA.

From nm officer of the steamer G.
III. Durfee which reached here from
Red River ON Tuesday, it is learned
that Senator Twitchell, who, with
one King, was shot at Coushatta u
few days ago, charges the commits
sion Of the crime upon Thomas
Bean, who, it will be reeollected,
was concerned in the spiriting
away of the election returns Of one
of the polls of DeSoto parish in
1873, when Twitchell and Elan
were contestants for the State
Seuatorship from that district.
The Times informant states that,
according to TwitchelPs story, the
latter promised Bean IL thousand
dollars for tho service of suppress
sing the returns, but that this
money he subsequently refused to
pay, on the ground that Bean had
failed to perform the task according
to the strict letter of the contract.
Twitchell says thai, failing to
obtain the money, Bean threat
ened to kill him, and this threat
although not sought to be effected
during q lapse Of three years
eliminated in the shooting OF
himself and King.
1t is said that the assassin used a
Henry rifle-a sixteen shooter
aud not only emptied it at his
victim, bnt also emptied his re-
volver, firing twenty-five shots in
all,
Directly after the shooting, and
escape Of the shooter, the sheriff
organized q posse and started 10
pursuit. but after proceeding about
three miles abandoned the chase,
on the plea that to take the man
would be certain death for some
body, and he didn't think it would
pay. Atlast accounts the assassin
was still at large. I'M. o. Times.

are satisfied tint his nomination
would prove an excellent one and
add much to The strength Of the
democratic ticket. Although these
testimonials OF friendship and con-
fidence are fully appreciated, cir
cumstances haye forced Mr.. Gil
rard to decline the proffered hon
