A STARTLING EPISODE.

Late one evening a group of young
men had the smoking of the Blen.
helm club to themselves. They sat in a
circle round the blazing fire, chatting,
laughing, chatting one another, and
bandying jests. At length, during a
momentary pause, one of the party who
was lounging in an easy-chair with his
legs dangling over one of the arms, and
his hat tilted over his eyes, idly took up
newspaper which was at hand, and
read out from the agony column the
following advertisements
"JACK.-Meet me at the Marble Arch
Tomorrow, Tuesday, at 0 o clock p. m.
IL Is the last favor l shall ever ask.
Come if YOU love me.-MAGGIE."
There was sneer on the face of the
reader, and the announcement caused
laughter among his audience. One of
the young men turned to another, and
said, jokingly:
Jack, you base deceiver! It's your
little milliner friend. You've behaved
shockingly, and it's your duty to CO."
'Bosh" returned Jack Canister, sip

Assassination of Railway Agent Powers at

Assassination of Railway Agent Powers at
Marshall, Illinois, in His Office - The
Town Wild With Excitement-HuntinG
the Trail of the Murderer.
MARSHALL, ILL.,, Sept. u. Never since
war times has Marshall been in such
state of wild excitement as to-day.
This morning at seven O'Clock as Hector
Dulaney was passing the new depot at
the crossing of the Cairo, Vincennes &
Chicago and Vandalia Railways, he
glanced in and saw pools of blood on
the floor. Summoning assistance an
examination was made, and it was
found that back window had
been broken out, sash and ALL
A hasty glance in showed a body close
up under the desk, covered with papers
and an old coat. An entrance was at
once made, and the body was found to be
that of the agent, George Powers. He
had been shot and instantly killed, ap
parentlY. Soon hundreds of people were
at the depot, scarcely believing the
terrible news. The Coroner was sum-
moned from Dennison. In the mean
while your correspondent examined the
scene of the murder. The depot is one
and half miles northeast of the city, in
a deep and lonely cut. The agent was

young men, friends of his, had accom-
panied Powers out to his post ana left
him at half-past ten. The murder must
have been committed soon after that
time. He was sitting at his desk writing
a letter, and, being near-sighted, he
was leaning over close to the pa
per, and had his hat pulled down over
his eyes. The murderer must have
slipped up to the window and fred at the
% l,f han ha
pane of glass through which it passed,
cut a circular hole in the top of the hat,
and then entered the victims head He
fell forward, his left eye striking on the
telegraph instrument, making terrible
bruise. There was pool OF
blood on the table by the in
strument The murderer then seemed
to have gone around and entered
through the back window. He dragged
the body to theJ floor and rifed all the
pockets, taking what little money there
was and his watch. The body was then
dragged through the pool of blood al
ready formed and laid close under the
desk and covered up. The floor
was almost covered with blood. The
inquest was held this afternoon
and a verdict was rendered in accordance
with the above facts. Powers was
a young man of twenty-siX, very popular
with all, especially the young folks, and
his awful death is felt as common
calamity. thousand dollars was raised
in a short time to prosecute the search
for the murderer or murderers. The
feeling is most intense, and it
would take strong walls to hold
the fiends if once caught. A
hundred men have been out since
the discovery of the murder securing the
country and kilograms have been sent in
every direction. There is no clew what
ever to guide the searchers. An effort is
being made to get the blOOd-hOunds from
Olney to start the search. This last
devilish deed seems to cap the climax of
crime which has reigned in Clark County
the last three months.

THE CUTTING CASE.

Although Properly Reticent, Secretary
Bayard is Pushing the Investigation of
the Cutting Case, with Every Reason to
Believe He Was Right in First Premises.
WASHINGTON, Sept 12.-Although Sec
retary Bayard is properly reticent re-
specting any recent correspondence be-
tween this country and Mexico, it is
readily apparent to those who converse
with him that he expects to push the
point raised in the Cutting case quite
vigorously. It can not be learned
whether any communications have come
from Mr.. Sedgwick giving a report OF
progress in the inquiry he was sent to
Mexico to make, but Mr.. Bayard so
speaks of the disputed points in the
Cutting trial as to imply that he has
received satisfactory confirmation of
the original statements upon which
he demanded Cuttings release. He de-
clares very emphatically, in speaking OF
the matter that there was not only no
misstatement in the first announcements
as to the Offense charged against Cutting,
but that there has not been any change in
the Mexican court records in respect to
that matter He is quite sure that he
was right at the start in assuming that
the Mexican courts were undertaking to
try an American citizen for printing a
libel within the jurisdiction of the United
States and entirely outside of Mexico.
81 don't doubt that fact now any more
than l did in my first telegram to Mil
lister Jackson" said Mr.. Bayard, "and
hardly believe the fact that this was the
original charge will be disputed. The
change of position atterward taken was
unques tionably suggested by ingenious
people on this side of the line who in
vented legal subtleties for the Mexican
courts"
Mr. Bayard went on to explain that the
device of trying Cutting for the circu-
latior oI libel in Mexico rather than
for the publication in Texas with the
idea of making the subsequent publtca-
tion a continuing offense, and thus con-
Meeting that with the original cause of
complaint, which arose within Mexican
Jurisdiction, was never thought Of by the
Mexican officials until suggested to them
by their very swift allies in the United
States It is scarcely probable that Mr..
Sedgwick has pursued his inquiries for
so long time without keeping the State
Department advised as to his discoveries,
so that the confidence manifested by Mr..
Bayard regarding what the Mexican court
records show can not but mean that he
has satisfactory assurance 10 this effect
from his special envoy.
