difficulty between two well known rail-
way passenger conductors has Just oc-
Cured at Witten's livery stable, on
Throckmorton street, which is the town
talk. Harry Talmage, son of A. A.
Talmage, of st. Louis. and Sam Crow
ley are the principals. Both have runs
on the Texas ~ Pacific, II seems impos-
sible to learn the cause of the encounter.
All that is known is that Crowley and
Talmage were out riding together, had
returned to the stable and had gotten
out Of the buggy, when hot words were
spoken. Crowley drew knife and in
fiicted several serious cuts on Talmage,
when the latter drew his revolver and
fired four or five shots, one taking effect
In Crowley's head, but how dangerous
the wound, is not now known. DIR,
Moore, who was called in, says it de-
pends upon whether any of the bones
are injured. Talmage's wounds are
prom ounced very serious.
The wounds of Harry Talmage are
pronounced serious. One is a cut across
the top of the head, beginning at the
back and extending to the frontal bone.
Another, and the most serious, is a
staD Ill tne lelt shoulder, about two
inches long, between the scapula and
spinal cord, nearly reaching the latter.
The third wound is stab in the upper
right arm.
The first shot fired by Talmage is the
one which took effect on Crowley,
and mast have been at close
range and while the men were
facing each other. The last three
shots being fired as Crowley ran, pur.
sued by Talmage.
Physicians say Crowley's wounds
may cause death from the cOncussion
and consequent injury TO the brain, OF
they, may terminate in very slight
trouble.
Crowley is the conductor who killed
three men and wounded two, about
three years ago between Sherman anG

Suicide Suspected at San Marcos.

SAN MARCOS, Jan. 3l,-[Special. +
Some days ago a handsome woman,
about % years old, well dressed, OF ele-
giant manners, and seemingly well sup
piled with money, registered at a hotel
here as Mrs. Bush, and stated that she
was expecting her husband from San
Antonio. She was enciente and had
been married five months. Every day
she walked to the depot, in all sorts OF
weather, and patiently inspected
the incoming passengers, always
with the same result. Her husband did
not arrive. Two days ago she disap-
pearcd, leaving no clue behind her. She
had gradually grown dospondent, and
spoke more than once OF putting sum
mary quietus ON her troubles. The pro.
sumption is very strong that she has
committed suicide by drowning. The
trunk and clothes are still at the hotel
II has been proven beyond cavil that
she did not leave town by train or any
public or private conveyance. The pools
of the San Marcos river are to be
dragged in search of the unfortunate
lady's body.
