Has, says that telegram received last night
by General Manager Robinson states that the
posse which is in pursuit of the two Mexican
bandits who murdered Supt. Richards We'd
nesday, of the Carthage mines and got away

Is giving desperate and hot chase. The posse
is made up of the sheriff, two deputies. and six
employees Of the mines. Just before dark last
night the two bandits were almost oyertaken
at the foot of the mountains. The party was
near enough to shoot them and wounded one of
them slightly. During the night the criminals
made their escape. Two employees in the mines,
supposed to be accomplices. have been ar
rested Supt. Richards had received from To-
peka large sum of money only an hour before
for the purpose of paving the employees At
any other time he would have had nothing on
hand.
THEY MAY HAVE PEEN KILLED.
A despatch from Santa Fe, n. NJ, says: A re-
port reached here last night that it was believed
at the Santa Fe mines at Carthage that the posse
who went in pursuit of the murderers of Super
intendent Richards, succeeded in killing the
pair. The posse returned but refused to affirm
or deny that the Mexicans had been shot The
money was not recovered and the story is that
il was buried by the robbers soon after the
murder. The body of Superintendent Rich
ards will be sent to Quincy, ILL.,. where his
family live.

An Economic Reform i'm the Method
of Making Purchases.

Secretary Tracy has turned his attention to
the matter of purchasing supplies for the navy,
and has already made an order inaugurating a
considerable economic reform. 1t appears
that the practice of the department has been TO
purchase supplies for the navy by advertise
ment at the beginning of each fiscal year, max
ing the list of purchases extensive enough to
cover the probable needs of the different bu-
reaus during the entire year. Upon inquiry
the Secretary learned that in making these
purchases regard was not had for the amount
of fstores on hand This led to the accumulation of
stores, which in many cases rapidly deteriorated
and caused
LOSS TO THE GOVERNMENT.
To satisfy himself upon this point Secretary
Tracy has just procured a statement of the
amount of stores now on hand, as the adver-
tisements for supplies for the next fiscal year
will soon be issued. This statement shows that
there are now on hand stores valued at
$4,000. sos, and the Secretary intends that they
shall be deducted from the value of the stock
to be purchased next month. Therefore he has
issued the following circular:
SECRETARY TRAcYs CIRCULAR
NAVY DEPARTMENT.
WASHINGTON, ID. C.. May l6, 1889.
The appended table gives the total valuation
ginning of the fiscal year. for the respective
classes comprising supplies of an ordinary
commercial nature, as reported to the paymas-
ter-general by the general storekeepers, with
the gross amounts OF purchases and of issues
for use under the same classes during the first
quarter.
In view of the large accumulation shown. and
to prevent unnecessary expenditure of money,
it is hereby ordered that no purchases be made
of supplies pertaining to those classes, If the
stores required can be obtained by transfer
from other bureaus at the station where they
are needed, or by shipment from other sta
tions.
To this end. all acquisitions for such supplies
shall be examined in the light of the returns to
the paymaster general, by whom they shall not
be approved for purchase, if the public inter-
ests will be subseryed by transfer or shipment
In cases where stores are accumulated in undue
quantities at certain points, and current wants
may be met by a redistribution thereof. il is
ordered that such shipments be made to other
stations the needs of the service may sug-
gest; and the paymaster general is charged
with the execution of this duty. after consulta-
tion with the chiefs Of the bureaus concerned.
Wherever il shall be possible to utilize sup
plies differing in unimportant respects from
those called for, such substitutes shall be made
1t is further ordered that supplies required
under classes other than those given in the
appended table shall if practicable. be obtained
in like manner by transfer or shipment
Freight charges shall be borne by the bureau

at prices far below
what she had expect

lady said she had Oft
en- gone to these new
stores and to these
special sales but she
had never been able
to find goods for less
than at her old trad

had been around and
had gotten prices at
the old trading place

NEW ORLEANS, La, July S.-Kilrain
was toeing the scratch when Donovan, his

ing Sullivan the victor. kilrain was by
no means satisfied, but Notwithstanding
his protestations he was bundled up in a
black shawl and hurried into a carriage.
Kilrain, Donovan, Butler. Murphy and
Mitchell drove rapidly to the train and en-
tered their car. Sullivan. Muldoou aud
Cleary entered the first coach. When Kill
rain had seated himself he, was sur
rounded by host of sympa-
thizing friends who consoled him
for his misfortune. hilrain wept like a
child and continued exclaiming: Il had
him beaten"
A large crowd had followed the hacks
and remained standing around the coaches
in which Sullivan and kilrain were Mr
Stevenson. who had been Kilrain's friend
throughout, remained by his side and

A CALL FOR GREENBACKERS CON-
VENTION

WASHINGTON, July S.-Mr. George o.
Jones, chairman of the national Greenback
party, has issued an invitation requesting
all persons who desire to aid in reorgan-
iziDg the national Greenback party to meet
in their respective states and congressional
districts on or before September 4, next,
and appoint one delegate and one alternate
to attend the national Greenback con-
vention called to meet at Cincinnati on
September II next. The invitation is ex-
tended to those who favor a distinct
American policy regarding its finances,
who believe that full, legal tender notes,
greenbacks, issued by the government for
value received in promoting the general
welfare, constitute the money which
marks our advancing civilization, aud
should become the permanent circulating
medium of the American people, the life of
whose free government they saved, and
that a party bearing their name should be
perretuated to keep these great truths
constantly before the people. Those who
believed with the prophet OF old that
money answereth all things and that no
other reform can be wisely considered nor
honestly determined until the great
economic wrongs brought about by
and the money question forever
settled in the interest OF the whole people,
ard who are willing to act in accordance
with the spirit of the resolution passed by
the constitution congress in l713. viz; Not
10 eat, drink, wear or use anything manu-
featured in Great Britain, nor after one
year trade with anyone who deals in goods
brought here under the British flag"
The call says the reorganized party will
also advocate the payment of public debts
according TO the original contract under
which they were issued; the encourage
ment of the American merchant marine
and of home industries; the Limitation OF
the debts Of corporations TO the amount OF
stock actually paid up; the restriction of
dividends of corporations 70 fair return
on the investment and the restriction OF
private ownership of land.

DAWsON'S REAL NAME.
1t Was Francis Warrington Reeks-Rea-
son for the Change.

NEW YORK, July IA statement has
been made by one who was in a situation
to know that the real name of Captain
Dawson, who was shot in Charleston by
DR.. Mellow, was Reeks, and that Captain
Dawson was in fact an own brother of the
Rev. Father Reeks, who is a priest in St.
Georges Cathedral, London, and who
has been recently spoken of as a
relative of DR.. Cronin. A gentleman
in this city who was very warm personal
friend of Captain Dawson and who for a
long time maintained intimate business
relations with him, made this statement
today:
at is true that Captain Dawson's real
name was Reeks. His full name was
Francis Warrington Reeks and he went
by the name of Francis Warrington Daw-
son. This change of name was not due
to any circumstances discreditable TO
Captain Dawson. At the outbreak of
boy in England. His sympathies became
strongly enlisted with the confederates,
and he ran away from home, hiding as a
stowaway on ship to join the confeder-
ate army. Realizing that his life would
be one of adventure, and not wishing to
have any rumpus oyer violation OF the
neutrality laws by an Englishman, he as
son. Under this name he served through
out the war and was gazetted and pro-
NOTED.
"At the close of the war he was very
proud of his record, and wished to retain
the name associated with it. He consulted
several eminent lawyers, who told him
that as he had no blood relatives in this
country, there was no reason why he
should not continue to be known by the
name he had assumed. He resolved,
therefore, to keep the name Of Dawson.
Captain Dawson never made any secret
of the fact that Reeks was his right name
His brother, the Rev. Father Reeks. WIS.,
tied him in Charleston, and Captain Daw-
son introduced the priest everywhere I'M
der the name of Reeks, as his brother.
The story that DIR. Cronin was brother
of Captain Dawson and Father Reeks, is a
wild yarn, Dawson never knew anything
about Cronin. He was a warm sympa-
thizer, though. of the Irish nationalist"
