CAPTURE OF THE AUSTIN THUG.
A Mexican Who has Made Reign OF
Terror in Texas's Capital.
GALVESTON, Tex. Dec.

GALVESTON, Tex. Dec. 81.
A special to the News from Austin says ::
Eustacio Martinez, a Mexican 40 years old,
was arrested last night on suspicion of being
implicated in the mysterious murders which
have recently startled the citizens of Austin
He lived in a secluded spot near the river.
and search of the premises resulted in the
discovery of bloody garments and several ar
ticles of female apparel. Martinez has no
family. Among the articles found was an
ice hook, such as experts testified might
have been used in the murder of Mrs: Ramey
and her daughter several months ago. A
prayer book with the name ELLA X. Ramey"
written on the title page was also found. to-
gether with two handkerchiefs, one of which
bore the initials y. R." The detectives
think the arrest of Martinez will clear away
the mystery of the outrage and murder of the
Ramey woman. Evidence was also discov-
cred connecting the prisoner with the recent
murder of Mrs. Hancock and Mrs. Phillips
and the assault upon the latter's husband.
The wounds inflicted upon Phillips head
were very similar to those found on the Ram
ey girl, and were probably inflicted with the
same instruments. Martinez shows signs of
being ''crank" He admits he was i'm
prisoned for two years in Brownville for as
saulting woman. Old blood stains on his
clothing are being examined by scientists.

ber of cases of boots and shoes sold aggregate
1868, 3,075, against 2, ,487 1922 in 1884, the fig
ures for 1885 being the largest since the be-
ginning OF the industry In New England. The

gard the business signs for 1886 as most
hopeful.

Wednesday morning at o'clock, three
masked men entered the engine room of the
Marshal Coal Co.'S works at Erie, on the
Colorado Central road, 40 miles from Dem
yer, captured the engineer, took him several
hundred yards away, tied him and then re-
turned and set fire to all the coal in the COM

way, and several cars of the railroad COM
panies were completely destroyed. The loss
will reach over 5000. while several hun
dred men are thrown out of employment.
Three weeks ago the wages of the men in
the companies mines were cut down when the
knights of Labor ordered a strike, but the
miners rather than be without work at this
time of the year, refused to obey. This out
rage is supposed to be another outcropping of
the Rock Springs trouble.

SHIPBUILDIS&
In Maine as Reviewed by the Boston
Journal.

BosToN, Dec. 81.
The Journals review of the shipbuilding
industry in Maine shows that the net tonnage
of vessels built in Maine yards has decreased
from 46, ,40l tons in 1884, to 23,O23 tons in
1885. There has also been great change in
the character of the vessels built during the
past year, the majority being 100 tons and
designed for coasting trade, instead OF from
500 to 800 tons, as in former years. The
vessels built during 1885, were one bark
three barkentines. 3S sqhooners, five sloops
five ships and five steamers; total 81. The
outlook for next year is not more encourag
ing than year ago, yet in this as IN othei
kinds of business, a change for the better
may come quite unexpectedly.

Collision in East River.

New YORK, Dec. 81
In the fog that lay in East river this morn
ing collision occurred between the Provi-
dence steamer CITY of Paquot and the Roose-
veit ferry boat Alaska, by which the ferry
boa. was pretty badly damaged and the
Pequot slightly. The collision occurred
when the ferry boat was on its way to Brook
lyn and there were few passengers on
board, but no person was hurt. The captain
of the Pequot lays the blame of the collision
on the Alaska's pilot. The ladies' cabin of
the Alaska was demolished. Her damage
will amount tn about $1,000. The DANA ge to
the Pequot's bow is inconsiderable, and she
will make regular trips.
