Killed by Moonshiners,

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. ia letter dated
yesterday, at Bloomington, Pullman county,
to the american, says, that in a fight, twelve
miles east of Cooksville, between the moon
sinners and Capt. j. Davis, United States
deputy collector, and United States Com
missioner G.. N. Campbell, Davis was killed
and Campbell much beaten. Davis last
words when he fell were, "Oh, Lord,
George" addressing Campbell. A letter,
dated Cooksville, Dec. 8, dictated By Camp
bell TO United States Collector Woodcock,
confirms the report. Campbell says: "Davis
and I were at jackson Lees, in the east end
of Putnam county, to-day, and I had seized
a lot of brandy, when we were attacked by
a party of persons. Davis ordered me to
issue a writ for Thomas Welsh and
| sat down on a woodpile to issue the writ,
when Alexander Welsh struck me with my
gun, which he broke over my head, knock
ing me down. When / got up Davis was
down, with his feet Oh the log, as if he was
dead, and l helped him into Jackson Lees
house. About this time l saw wo men
coming with guns. 1 took hold of Davis
and said, "Let's go away" We were both
without arms, and we started away. Davis
was added, and did not seem to know what
had happened. We had gone 100 yards
from Lees house, when a gun was fired
about fifty yards from us. Davis fell and
cried, "Oh, Lord, George" I moved
on, thinking the next shot would be mine;
reached Cooksville at 10 p. M. and am now
having my wounds dressed. An severely
cut and bruised on the head. Will go back
tonight with Sheriff q. j. Branner of Put
nam county, with q warrant for the arrest of
Alex Welsh. Will write you particulars to-
morrow. 1 fear to learn the reality. Ny
self and Squire Thos. Welsh were in a fight
where Alex. Welsh knocked me down with
my own gun.
Later.-The AmericGn's Lebanon spe DIAL

IN OCEAN WAiF.

A Sealed Bottle Thrown Overheard in
Mid. Ocean Found on q Beach In Scotland
Three Months 3 forwards.
On the 18th of August, 1879, the steam
ship Silesia left Hamburg for New York.
Very stormy weather was encountered after
leaving Havre, which continued for several
days, succeeded by more pleasant weather.
Among the passengers were Charles j.
Bower, of this city, and Charles q. Ransom,
of Colchester, Conn. These two became
very good friends. Aside from the
usual diversions incident to a sea
voyage, the subject of tides and
currents would occasionally be taken
up and discussed; and, by way of expert
ment, a message requesting the finder to
communicate with the parties, was placed in
side ola bottle, which was securely sealed
and thrown into the see. This was on the
21st day of August, 1879, and in mid-ocean.
The voyage was safely made and the incident
had been almost entirely forgotten until yes
terday, when the following letter was re-
ceived by G.. j. Bower, of which the follow
ing is a copy:
BErTYH1LL, Nov. 10, 1sSO.-From John
Sinclair.-Fonnd on the sands of Farr, on
the 10Th day of November, a small bottle,
sealed with wax. and in the bottle was found
this on a small piece of paper in writing:
To whom it may concern:
STEAMSHIP SILEs1A, 81, 8, 1879.-Just
passed by the "Canada." Constant head wind.
Eighth day out from Hamburg. Any one
picking this up would confer a favor by
communicating with G. U. Ransom, Col
chester, Conn.,, Box 145; G. J. Bower, st.
Paul, Mimi, y. S. A., 121 Pleasant avenue.
Please let me know if this is right.

Any more information I shall let you
know. j. S.
The letter is postmarked Thurso, Nov.
20, 1880, a town On the northern coast of

Markets.
Special Telegram to the Globe.

Especial Telegram to the Globe.]
CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-FoIcign advices were
steadier in tone to-day on wheat, and cargoes
were quoted three pence higher. Our market
opened active and higher. The bears fought
nobiy for q time, but soon lost their wind. and
the bulls stood their ground for the first time
in the past four days, and walked away with
the persimmons. The market closed this
afternoon at the highest price of the day,
$l.04% for January and 81. 05T fer February
The local bears went ashore, and New York
and Baltimore were free buyers all day, appar-
emily covering shorts and going long. The
advance may only be spasm odic. The stocks
in sight are large, but speculation and specu-
lators can do most anything, especially when
the outside world is not looking for it. Corn
and oats were frmer, in sympathy with
wheat.
Provisions were lifeless and the trade the
smallest of any day for weeks, February pork
closing ct $l3. 3211a for February, and February
lard at 1856. Look out for active markets
next week on the whole list.

in this matter. You are familiar with the
duties of the Office and it is not necessary for
me to introduce you to the subordinates."
There sseems to be little doubt as TO
whether Mr.. Salem 81. Wales will accept the
appointment of park commissioner which
was conferred upon him yesterday. He said
to-day: 81 have not get made up my mind as
to whether I will accept the position at all.
l was not consulted on the matter and did
not know that my name would be presented"
A TAMMANY MEETING.
The Tammany committee on organization
this evening enthusiastically endorsed the
leadership of John Kelly. Speeches were
made, declaring that Kelly was never before
SO strong as in this seeming hour of trial.
The speakers charged that Mayor Cooper,
Tilden and party were the Democratic trai-
tors who sold out Hancock, and that the
combination which was contaminated at the
meeting of the board of aldermen Friday
last proved this and vindicated Tammany
hall of the accusation made against it. John
Kelly, who was received with wild enthusi-
asm, made a speech, in which he said:
"Tammany's record at the last election was
clear and bright as an electric
light" He also charged the
Cooper and Irving hall par
ty with betraying the Democratic party.
"Would to God" he said, 'these men had
been faithful to Hancock. Would to God
they had buried luminosity in oblivion. There
would be a different story to tell, and Gen.
Hancock would be President elect of the
United States" Office was no onsequen
to him, Kelly, nor was he ambitious to be
looked up to as a leader, but, as they had
made him so, and expressed confidence in
him, they could command his services at any
time, and he would not be coerced by the
press. He said public men trucking to the
press could receive their support, but he
would never truckle to the press unless he
was right.
