Intelligence has Just reached this place
Of one of the most wsnton and diAboliCal
cases of arson and murder ever committed
in tho State Of Kentucky. Ths scene Is
on the Blackberry Fork Of Pond Greek, in

OF an old feud, and Is laid St the door OF

Since that time regular war has been

Virginia, and the McCoys and their gang,
who reside in Pike county, KentuCky-all
in the same neighborhood-the east fork
OF Sandy River dividing them.
So much for the beginning Of the
trouble, and now for the last and most
horrible scene.
A few nights since the Hatfield party
visited the residence Of Randall Mccoy
and set fire to the house. Alafara, his
eldest daughter, was the frst to open the
door and make her appearance, and in the
glariRg light she was shot dead by the
fiends outside, who were concealed. His
son Calvin next appeared, and he wss shot
dead. His wife made her appearance in
escaping from the burning building and
was shot through the head, and although
she was still alive at last accounts she will
die.

orr PET RAlLROAD.i

The AraI -as Pass railroad engineers
have inspected the Colorado river below
the city, and selected the most suitable
site for the proposed new railroad bridge,
and will, in few day -,7ubmit the estimate
they make of the cost of the bridge. In
the meantime our business men and prop
erty owners should settle their finances in
a one hundred thousand dollars bonus
groove. 1t may not cost this much to
build the bridge, secure the right OF way
and depot grounds and give the Arkansas
Pass railroad people one Thousand dollars
mile for the distance the line Will
traverse Travis county, but Austin will be
exceedingly lucky to get the railroad
built that cheaply; lucky in having spent
so little money in securing good thing
and lucky beyond computing in gaining
a railroad outlet that will be worth mil
lions of dollars to the city. Austin, in
the past eighteen months has INDUCED IN
railroad talk ad nauseam; score of rail
roads have been constructed--On paper
but this time we are convinced our people
mean strict business 1t is, by far, the
best proposition that has ever been made
us. The line will tap a rich and growing
section of the state; it leads in the right di
rectiop, towards the gulf it means, of ne
cessity, another outlet to the.north, and it:
price is very cheap, almost nominal If Aus
tin don't embrace this opportunity she de

THAT BRIDGE.
A Meeting Held Yesterday IN Its
Behalf.


The STATESMAN, upon more than one
occasion, has mentioned the imperative
necessity of having more bridge accom-
mediation across the river at this point.
Especially do the citizens of the east
ern portion of the county feel the neces-
sity for another bridge, and they contend
that the financial condition is such that
one should be constructed at once.
Feeling thus, number of gentlemen
yesterday held a meeting at the Office OF
Mr.. Van Patten, the East Sixth street
lumber merchant, in the interest of the
movement, and the sentiment of the
meeting was decidedly in favor of q
bridge to be located at the foot of Comal
street.
The matter is evidently being pushed
by men whose standing and influence is a
guarantee of its final success, and they
urge that bridge at the point named is
demanded by the growing trade, and the y
insist it is necessary for the welfare an d
prosperity of the eastern part of the CT ty
and county.
The question is assuming great i'm
portance and cannot be ignored. The
county commissioner should give it
prompt and serious attention.

DEEP WATER AND WHARF MoNoroLIEs

There is one element in the deep water
problem that seems to have thus far Is.
capped observation III the progress of the
agitation for deep water port on the
Texas coast. 1t is wharf monopoly. At
Galveston this devil fish has its grip on
every dollar of the commerce of the state
entering through that port. For the last
thirty years the wharf company has eX
acted tribute from the Texas consumer,
who has been forced to pay the tax or
order his supplies by rail. This embargo
laid on Texas commerce-erected in
our chief and nearest gateway to
the high seas-has grown rich
off its spoils, and more powerful
with age. II is almost completely identi-
fed with Galveston, which owns a part OF
1t and gets portion of the profits. En-
trenched behind vested rights, the Calves
ton Wharf company would still retain its
grip on importations coming through
that port with thirty feet of water As
easily as of fourteen. 1t would be expect
ing too much of human nature to dream
that, with increasing opportunities for
playing the vampire on Texas commerce,
it would relax its hold in the least.
If the state ever gets deep
water at Galveston, 1t must take
the wharf company along with it and
submit to the same exactiUns a ot yore,
or do away with that company. Nor is it
unlikely deep water at Padre Island would
he accompanied by the same sort of a
monopoly, the foundation for which ap-
pears already to have been laid. Things
might be different at the mouth of the
Brazos, or the occasion might create a
similar monopoly there.
Now what Texas wants is a deep water
port, without these commercial devil
fishes. Our growing trade and commerce
demand a deep outlet to the gulf, I'M
trsmmelled by any monopoly with the
power of saying to the Texas consignee:
You must pay me my tribute or you
don't get your goods
If We can get deep water at Galveston,
the next question to solve would be how
10 get rid of the wharf company, or to
prevent similar monopoly at any other
point, supposing the Galveston bar is left
unchanged.
