WoRTH1NGToN, Nov. 2O.-On Saturday
evening last most atrocious murder was
committed about twenty-five miles north
west of this place and about seven miles
north of Adrian. From the best evidence
obtainable at this time, it seems that Will
liam Gallagher, a well-to-do farmer of the
town of Leota, in this county, and who was
one-armed ex-soldier, was on his way
home from Adrian, where he had been to
make some purchases, and that at the farm
Of Geo. A. Beireis he got into some alterca-
ton with hired man of Beireis by the
name of Frank Ennig, German who has
been in this country about three months.
After some words between them, Gallagher
went away for distance of half mile, but
returned, and being ordered to halt by En-
mig in German, which Gallagher did not
understand, and he not stopping, Ennig
shot him with gun loaded with buckshot
Some neighbors hearing the gun, rushed to
the spot and finding Gallagher in pool of
blood but not dead, placed him in a wagon
and started to convey him to his residence,
which is about three miles from the place
of the murder, Before arriving at Gala
gher's house, he died in the wagon. Intel
igence was promptly sent to Adrian, and
Constable L. S. Roberts Immediately went
out and arrested the murderer, arriuing
just as he was making preparations for
fight. The murderer is about five feet
eight or nine inches tall, slim built, good
looking, intelligent German, and says he is
twenty mine years old.
The coroner was telegraphed for at Wor-
Ellington yesterday and is holding an in
quest to-day. County Attorney Wilson
with Sheriff Miller, and Coroner McMan-
nus with Drs. Croft and Sullivan, left
Adrian this morning for the scene of the
murder. The prisoner is in the Adrian
village Jail, awaiting an examination,
which will take place after the inquest.
This is the first murder ever committed
in Mobiles county.

CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-There was a large
criminal court to-day to witness the trial
of Teresa Sturla for the murder of Chas.
Stiles. The states attorney, in calling
the case up, announced that special
venire of sixty talesmen had been sum-
moned, and without further preliminaries
the court directed counsel to proceed to
the selection of jury. The defendant
was in court in the same attire that she
wore yesterday. She managed to conceal
one-half of her face beneath the folds of a
heavy lace mantle which she wore over her
head. The mother of the murdered man
was also present, and looked worn and
weary. The day was consumed in secur-
ing two jurors. To complete the jury
will require at least two days.
