FOUR MURDERS.
Illicit Distillers and the County
Officials Come Together.
Pike and Floyd Counties the Scene of tho
Latest CoIlIslon--A Deputy sher-
IN Among the Killed.

CATLETTsBURo, KY, May o5.-Score four
more murders for the Big Sandy Valley.
Intelligence reached this place this morn
ing that the remnants OF the Hatfield Nc
Coy gang had collided, aud that three men
were killed. With the remembrance OF
the recent merciless vendetta between
these warring elements fresh in the minds
OF the people excitement was correspond
ingly high when the news was received,
and a reporter at once set about to
get full particulars. Upon invcstiga-
tlon he found that the reported
massacre was unfonnded and thnt
the killings were not one Of those
fashionable Kentucky feuds. The first on
the list was the killing OF Preston Fleming
by Robert Davis, couple Of miles above
Pikeyillc. In Pikeville and Pike County
local option prevails, and there are three
Illicit distillcries over in Knox County,
until recently part OF Pike. Those en-
gagged IN the manufacture Of whisky so
over the line into Pike and sell their wares.
Eight OF these men were detected carry
ing on their business, and the Pikeville
authorities, headed by Marshal Davis and
Jailor Cline, went out TO capture tho
rendezvous, an old warehouse, and Mr.
Cline gained his way into the building aud
held them at bay. Preston Fleming, who
happened TO come up, took in the situation
at glance, and attempted TO shoot Clinc,
when Davis, one OF the guards, who saw
him with his gun cooked and pointed at
Cline, shot and killed him. Ho fell near
tho door. The other seven were landed in
the Pike County jail. Davis, fearing
trouble, left for parts unknown. The Sec
ond happened on Proter, in Floyd
County, in which Jake Hold
erfeld, an ex-deputy United States
marshal and deputy sheriff Of Floyd Coun-
ty, was killed. John Hall stood indicted
for burglary in the Floyd criminal court,
and Holderfield went out to arrest him.
As he entered Halls house the latter shot
him through the head, killing him in
stantly. Immediately after the murder
Hall fed. Tho excitement is high. and If
he is captured he will be lynched. The
other two murders occurred over on
the Tug Fork Of Sandy, In Pike County,
and my informant gave 1t as an authen-
tic report that Thomas Cline and Henry
Simpkins had quarreled over trivial
matter, when Cline whipped out his re-
volver and shot Simpkins, killing him in
stantly. Cline at once left the scene, but a
few hours later his body was found only
few miles away with bullet through it,
and the supposition is that Cline's friends
In endeavoring TO capture him had TO kill
him. Tho Boyd County grand jury ad-
journed yesterday, after q ten days ses-
sion, during which time they examined
two hundred and seven witnesses and
found one hundred and tweuty-six indct-
ments In the criminal court to-day Lem
Bolts was given three years for cutting
years for grand larceny. and John oliver
two years for grand larceny, all colored.

KANSAS CRY, No., May 23--A double
wreck Of freight trains occurred this morn
ing near Randolph, five miles cast OF here,
on the Rock Island road, which resulted
in the death of E. g. Armstrong, brake
man, OF Belleville, o.; 4. Royston, brake
man, of Edgerton junction, Kas. James
Taylor and Emil Stroehm, tramps, and
an unknown tramp. Benjamin Norris,
Rock Island engineer OF Chillicothe, Mo-;
Ben Mcclellan, Of Kansas City, Wa
bash engineer; &. J. Snyder, Rock Island
fireman, of Trenton, Mo-, and a colored
man were seriously hurt. The first
train, which was of the Rock Island,
went through bridge over a deep
ravinc, through which quite large stream
Of water runs. The engine and five cars
were wrecked. The engineer and fireman
escaped, but Brakeman Royston was kill
cd. Brakeman Armstrong, who had safely
escaped injury, was sent back TO flag
FIRE ght train OF the Hannibal and st.
Joseph, which uses the Rock Island track
at that point. The Wabash Western runs
parallel with the Rock Island here and
within few feet oft. The Wabash bridge
over the ravine where the accident oc-
Cured is within two feet Of the
Rock Island bridge, the two being braced
together About ten minutes after the
hrst wreck Wabash freight came thun-
dsring along and struck Brakeman Arm
strong, who for some unknown reason
was on the Wabash track, mangling him
horribly. The engineer Of the Wabash
train did not notice the Rock Island wreck
until too late. Engineer Mcclellan and
Fireman Snyder jumped and escaped,
with serious but not fatal injuries, while
Brakeman Royston aud the three tramps
were killed. A colored man from Chilli
cothe, who was stealing q ride, was also
hurt. The Wabash train consisted Of six
teen cars. Traffic on the Wabash
and Hannibal roads is wholly
suspended, but it is expected, will
be resumed within thirty-slx hours. The
total damage is estimated at $4,000. 1t
now appears that seven lives were lost in
the wreck. Ben Norris, the man who was
fatally injured, says that an old man and
his son were in the box car with him and
| they have not yet been accounted for.
There is also said to be another tramp
buried in the ruins. One hundred men
are at work for the Rock Island clearing
away the debris, and sixty-five arc en-
| gagged in the same work for the Wabash.
