The Rig Trade.

As referred to in Mondays Daily
LEDGER one of the biggest trades OF
the year was on foot, and was con-
summated last night. The amount H.
volved was about SIS, 900. Ferris
& Son have purchased George ellis
immense stock OF hardware and
farming implements. and will on
solidate the two stocks in the four
story brick as soon as they can
reno, lei the rooms a little and make
room for it. They also leased the
warehouse in the rear of the Gill
building. The Gill store rom be-
longs to J. j. Gill and is one of the
best in Mexico. Several parties are
trying to rent it now.
Besides the cash paid, Ferris traded

Gus Klaus and Fred Hickman,

some time ago, bought some cigars
which were unstamped, were ar
Fa,gned before the United States
Court at Jefferson City Monday, and
fined $50 each-the lowest fine that
could be imposed for such an offence.
A stay of execution was granted,
and the probability is that the fines
will never have to be paid, as the
court thought 1t was nst the intsns
ton Of Klaus and Heckmsn to vio-
late the law. The boys fined are
two of Mexico's most industrious
Germans, who we're evidently ignor-
ant OF the law, when they bought the
cigars. They were defended by o.

quickly. His preliminary examina-
ton will probably be held the last OF
this week. lie will be charged with
burglary. Another little matter,
which, if it has any connection with
the burglary, sustaihs the belief of
his sanity, is as follows: The watch
man at Jefferson street crossing says
the lamp just opposite hns watch
house was burning brightly at 5
O'Clock, when he went to breakfast,
but when he returned at six, was
turned so low as TO make it useless.
Tue Waterman thinks one of the
burglars turned it down, bnt whether

THE LATEST.
The editor of this paper, just be
fore we go to press, visited Smith,
who is resting comfortably in a cell
at the Jail, for the first time talking
inteIligentIy, and cleaned The follow
ing. We don't know whether they
are all facts or not:
He says he has a wife and three
children at Cleveland, Ohio, and for
the world would not have them know
of his present trouble. He is a mem
Der of the Horseshoers' Union in
good standing. Work was dull in
Cleveland and he went to Kansas
City, hearing that there was plenty
of work for every one in the metrop-
oils Of the West. He got some work
there and then got biling'drunk. He
says he left there the first of the
week, drunk, and started to walk to
St Louis, counting the ties on the
G. & A. II. r. He ate nothing and
drank nothing on the way but water.
He was without money or appetite.
He says that now he knows what be
is talking about but does not emem-
Der anything that happened since he
left Kansas City. He says he had
no pal and if any one was with him
at DR.. French's he don't know it,
and, in fact, don't remember of hay
ing been there himself. He says he
knows he had snakes and that is ali
he does know. He says he never was
in trouble before and can prove by
men he has worked for that his rec
ord for honesty is good and that he
would not beg if he a starving if
he could get work. He is a good
natured, stout and healthy man and
we judge, when sober, is q good cit
izen. All depends on his record. II
it is good he should have the benef,
of it. If bad he should be prosecu-
ted to the full extent of the law. He
thinks DR.. French did right in shoot
ing him but can't understand how he
come to be where he was. He saws
he has been walking day and night
since he was drunk, to get clear Of
the snakes, and thinks he must have
wondered in French's thinking i,
was a hotel. Whether he is honest
in this or not we are hardly prepared
to say till we hear from some of tht
many references he gives in Cleveland
and Kansas City.

A QUEER CASE.

The man Smith is certainly a queer
character, and he is either very crazy
or suffering from delirium trernens,
or very shrewd. Saturday afternoon
he came into the City Hall very much
excited, saying somebody was about
to arrest him, and demanded the pro-
lection of the police. On the same
day he was e by some Mexico
hunters, on the creek, east Of town,
acting in o very strange manner.
When he was brought to the City
Hall after he had been shot, he at
once assumed a stubborn, idtotic
air and appeared utterly oblivious to
the surroundings. While, on the
other hand, when he talked with the
doctor on the porch before he was
shot, he seemed to know what he was
doing, and while the officers we're
taking him to the City Hall he talked
intelilgently, but denied having en-
tered DIR. French's house. At the
Jail this morning while bis wounds
were being dressed by Drs. French
and Russell, he talked sensihly about
his condition, how the wounds were,

His captor assured him, however,
that he wouldn't be harmed further,
and by this time a number of neigh
bors and the police had been attract
ed to the house, from which Smith
was taken to the City Hall. At the
City Hall DR.. French, with the assist
ance of q number of other surgeons,
extracted the bullet from Smiths
arm, but was unable to locate the
other one, which, it is su' posed, is
lodged behind Smiths left shoulder
blade. At noon he vas taken to
the county Jail, where he is resting
easily.
DR.. French believes there were tive
men in the house, as the injured
mans cry for watson, when he was
shot, would indicate. Further EVIL,
dence of two men, however, are fresh
tracks made in the mud of a mar
much smaller than Smith. In m OF
the prisoners pockets was found q
membership card in the Horseshoer's
Union, No. Is, Of Cleveland, Ohio.
A. J. Keeffe, president. The queer,
est part Of the entire transaction is
the fact that Smith seemed to be in 9
stupor, never once giving an intel
Iigible account of himself. DR.. French
say the man talked sensibly when
shot, and thinks this stupidity was
feigned in order to gain sympathy
Smiths partner escaped, and, as be
was not seen by anyone, a deserip'
ton of him cannot be obtained.
