a Strange Tragedy In Florila- murderer

Ia Strange Tragedy In Florida-Murdersl
Escapes,
KEY WEsr, -FLAp Sept, ga singular
story reaches here from q charcoal camp
on Pine Key. Day before yesterday,
man namRd Cooper visited Donaldson's
camp, when the latter asked him to re-
tnrn a knife which he had borrowed Q
few days baIors, Cooper threw It on the
floor, saying; aThere it is," Donaldson
picked it up and walked about twenty
feet from the camp, when, without any
warning, Cooper shot him in the back,
and when he fell ran up to him saying
"You amt dead, III finish you,"
Donaldson begged Tor his life, and
Cooper left, saying; "Lle there and auiEer
and die"
Cooper then reloaded his doubls,bsr-
relied gun with buGkshot, and went TO the
camp Of Balm and Hunter, Balm was
cooking in front Of his tent, when, with
out any warning, he was shot in the bow.
els, tearing out his entrails, Balm cried
out; "Why did you shoot meG Did /
ever harm you|
Cooper answered; "No, only shot you
to please my own mind"
Cooper again loaded his gun and went
10 the front Of tho tent when HunteT,who
was inside, attempted TO run, but was shot
through til heart and instantly killed, A
man named Carey, who was out In boat,
heard the shots and came Ashore, when
Cooper ran him into the woods, He went
down to the camp Of come other men, aud
came .back with them and brought the
dead and wounded men to Key West,
Cooper left in boat. A reward Of $500 Is
offered for the capture Of the murderer.
Another account states that Cooper
came to Pine Key from the Bahama Is
lands and entered q homestead from which
for months past the men he killed have
been trying to drive him, in order to se'
cure 1t for themselves. Desperation,
caused by the psrsistency oi their alleged
persecution, Is given as the cause oil the
tragedy by this account.

LONDON, Sept g, rhe Marquis Da Casa
LRiglesia, Spanish Minister to Great Bri,
tain, was visited by your correspondent
last night, and, in answer 10 questions re-
gardlng the revolt Of the Spanish soldiers
in Madrid Sunday night, said; "The
military revolt has been entirely quelled.
Itdid not at any time assume serious pro-
portions, but the boldnsss Of the copsplra,
tors dumbfounded the authorities aud
caused them for the moment to believe
its scope and gravity greater than was
shown by subsequent facts, There "a no
doubt that the revolt was planned by
speculators, headed by represeptstlyssoi
Ruiz Gorilla, in order to make money.
It was known before the revolt occurred
That secret agents OF Gorilla had circulated
among the troops aud tried their temper,
and 1t was found that many Of tho rebels
arrested after the rising had large sums OF
money In their possession. That the
army is at heart loyal 10 shown by the
sact that Of ita officers only one captain,
one sergeant and two oorporals iained
the revolt at the Gil Bias barracks.
Only few Of the rebels belonging to the
cavalry service Is now at large, and their
capture is merely matter Of time.
III ls u singular fact that the Paris
BouIss and the London Stock Exchange
operated largely In Spanish stocks before
the news Of the revolt was received in
,ither Of those cities, and the atill more
singular reports on the London Exchange
hat the infant King Of Spain had been
stolen, perhaps showed that the Oonspira-
tors intended to emulate their Bulgarian
brethren.
Personally, am most grieyed over the
death OF Count Mirasol, who was my dear
est friend and one Of the brayest men who
aver lived, and his murder has caused me
many bitter tears, One thing is certain,
and that is, that the conspirators have
little hope Of mercy, and deeply regret
that the wire pullers who instigSted the
outbreak exercised such caution as to
avoid sharing the fate OF their dutea.n
The arrest Of civilians suspected OF COM
plielty in the revolt continues. General
Vlllacampa, who led the revolt, Is report
ed to.be lying wounded in q peasant'a
cottage.
The pursuit Of insurgents is ended.
Those captured willbs judged by severe
