THE DEADLY DIRK.
Charlie Miller Stabbed at the Horse
Market.

A short time ago Geo. G. Miller, the vel |
known carriage manufacturer on Seventh
street, shipped a number of carriages,
marked &C. O. d." to B. Levy, a livery
stable keeper at Indianapolis; but Levy
was unable to take them out of the depot.
Yesterday he came down to this city for
the purpose of selling some horses at the
Flfthsreet Marker, when he met Charles
Miller, the well-known elocutionist and son
OF the carriage manufacturer, on the street
and held conversation with him respect
ing the carriages Soon after the two men
met again at the corner of the Arlington
Hotel, when Levy began calling Miller
names
Miller demonstrated, but as Levy would
not cease he gave him slap in the mouth.
Instantly Levy drew a knife, and before
Miller knew what he was about the knife
was buried deep in Miller's side. Levy at
once started for the Grand Hotel, where he
had been stopping but before the officers
had learned of his whereabouts he had left
for parts unknown. Miller was soon after
taken to his home on Walnut Hills where
he is now lying in very critical condition.
Reports received this afternoon as to the
condition of the wounded man state that
there is hardly any hope for his recovery.
1t is feared that Miller may die at any mo-
ment.

Ohio, yesterday, and will hereafter control
all the salt manufactured in the two val
leys. There are twenty-five furnaces in the
Pomeroy vicinity and four on the Kanawha.
The price fixed for salt is 81 for small bar
rels and 81 25 for large barrels.
This organization has been long desired
and needed, as it will probably set on its
feet again an important business, which for
the past few years has been improbable.
Captain c. NJ. Holloway, f. A. Laidey,
Lewis Glenn, and G. Y. Roots, of this city,
and j. B. Speed, of Louisville, are largely
interested in the new organization.
