under the influence Of whisky, rode into
Ute Creek, assmall village about fifty miles
from San Hlario. Don Macedinio Aragon

In the act of proceeding in search OF a stray
horse. They requested him to go to the
rear of the store and call the clerk. Aragon
refused. The cowboys then began to
abuse him. Aragon, experimenting some
harm, went to the house, procured rife
and proceeded on his way in search Of the
horse. The cowboys, seeing him with the
rife in his possession, rode towards him.
One in advance of his comrades came up
with Aragon and proceeded to shake hands
with him. After he obtained possession OF
sAragon's hand he held on to it firmly while
ethe othesccowboys began firing at Aragoni
with their rsvolyers. Aragon finally dis
engaged his hand from the grasp OF the
scowboy and sent bullet from bis rife
through one, Of the cowboys, which killed
him instantly. Aragou reiterated TO house

from the; storm Of bullets, he sent another
ball into the breast Of one Of the surviving
cowboys, which instantly ended his career.
He fred again and wounded another. By

Dastardly Attempt at Train Wrecking.
ROCKFORD, ILL, Sept. IL.

z HUCAEURD, ILL.,, sept. IL.
One of the boldest attempts that was ever
made in this section to wreck apassenger
train occurred here this noon. Some per-
son opened switch on the Milwaukee
Road, and as the noon passenger train
came laundering along it ran of the track
and down an embankment on Rock River.
The engineer reversed the engine and put
on the alr-brakes, and but for this thstrain
would have run into he river. It was a
narrow escape for hundreds Of passengers
from death.

There were very good receipts of grain
in this city to-day. Some wheat was offer.

for several days past was fully up to the
requirements of retail dealers. A little oats
came in wagons and were readily taken for
local consumption. Millet seed is in fair de-
mand, the small variety being generally
preferred. Prices are steady at quotations.

THE BUSINESS WORLD
COMMERCIAL

DALLAS, April 1.-THE cotton trade of
Dallas keeps pace with all other branches
of the commerce of the growing city.
Through the efforts of the cotton houses
the receipts of the present year will double
those OF the last. The merchants at all the
smaller towns nearby are beginning to re-
alize that the nearest important market Is
the best to sell cotton in. The fluctuations
are 80 decided that if cotton shall be in
transit month, a. is frequently the case,
the shrinkage in value often amounts to
five dollars and even more per bale. 1t
would DO instructive to the general reader
If some statistician would compile table
making comparison of tho net returns
from shipments to Galveston, New Orleans
or st. Louis, as against those made to this
place during this entire season. Mercan-
tile failures result from wrong selection
of market in which to sell. The mer-
chant usually buys at fair difference, in
view of the current prices in the market
where he intends to ship, but he cannot es-
innate how much cotton will decline if q
month in transit. There have been orders
received in this city forthree times rs much
cotton as has arrived, for Dallas is regarded
as one among the most prominent inland
cotton towns of the whole country, and
hence the satisfactory prices which have
ruled in this market all the season.

ON CHANGE.

The hour Of meeting at the Exchange
was interrupted by the Knights of Pythias
whose rooms are above those occupied by
the board, and the music and the beauty of
theprocession were more attractive than
cotton or grain or even the dollars of our
dads which business men are supposed to
banker after. Transactions were conse-
quently light and business for the day al
most suspended. Prices were without any
change and firm at quotations,
The following prices ruled on the ex-
change to-day: Cotton firm; Tor middling
D. Wheat, 90 to 95. Corn In shuck, IS to 60;
average Texas corn in bulk, 81 to 50. Oats,
sacked, GO to 6S. Rye nominal; 60. Bar
ley nominal; G5. Millett seed, 60 to G5;
German, $l.25. Hay. $3.50.
