old court house. He was native of
Canada, As years of age, and ten years a
citizen of the United States. Eighteen
months ago he was married to Miss
Florence Haynes, sister of DR.. Haynes,
who accompanied him on his fatal expe-
dition and came SO near losing his life
also. Mr.. Hardie was the father of one
child. The bereaved wife and babe live
at 920 South Main street.
Two weeks ago yesterday Mr.. Hardie
and his brother-in-law, who was here on
visit from Philadelphia, left Los An
geles for brief vacation at George Prid-
hams ranch in Arizona, twenty miles
out from Tombstone. The sad result of
their visit is told in the foregoing dis
patches.
The first intelligence of the tragedy
received in this city was the following
dispatch from the survivor of the mas
sacre to DR.. w. w. Beckett, Sunday
evening:
TOMBSTONE, A. T., May "a.
DR.. W. W. Beckett, Los angeles, CAL:
Robert killed instantly by Indians.
Unmutilated. Pm not hurt. Will be
home with body Tuesday evening.
FRANCIS L. HAYNES.
DIR. Beckett, on receipt of the dispatch,
impaired the news to Mrs. Hardie's
relatives who live here, who in turn
broke the sad intelligence to her. The
poor wife was quite Frustrated with
grief. The body is expected to arrive
here today.
Another Account.
Another telegram received in this city
about the killing, from Tombstone yes
terday, says in part:
''Ten days ago Robert Hardie, of Los
Angeles, accompanied by DIR. F. L.
Haynes, of Philadelphia, left here for a
trip in the Chiracahua mountains and
stopped at Mike Gray's house, Rucker
canon. Yesterday morning word was
received that he had been killed by In
dians, and shortly the body arrived
also DR.. Haynes.
''The coroner's inquest showed that
Hardie and Haynes were riding along
the trail toward Gray's house, Hardie
in front about ten feet, when volley of
firearms was heard. Hardie reeled in
the saddle, falling backward off the
horse. Haynes thinking he was mis-
taken for an animal, went to his assist
ance and saw he was dead, when he
went back to his horse. When about to
mount, another shot was fired, killing
his horse.
Being unarmed, he started to run,
and on looking back saw an Indian fol
lowing, who raised his rifle and fired at
him, but missed him. DR.. Haynes
kept running and caught Hardie's horse
and escaped to Gray's house. Four men
went to the scene of the killing. Har-
dies watch and pocketbook were gone,
but the body was not mutilated."

ST. JOHNS SILVER BILL.
Provisions of the Measure Introduced
by Senator Plumb.

Dy senator flumD.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-The silver bill
prepared by Banker st. John, of New
York, introduced by Senator Plumb to-
day, directs the secretary of the treasury
to purchase silver bullion to the aggre-
gate amount of $4,500,0O0; outlying
silver at the market price, but not ex-
ceeding one dollar for 371.25 grains
of pure silver, and issue United States
notes in payment therefor, these notes
to be legal tender for all purposes,
unless otherwise specified in any
contract. The aggregate amount
of such notes outstanding shall not ex-
ceed the cost of the silver reserved on
hand, in the purchase of which the
notes were issued. The notes shall be
redeemable on demand at the treasury
or sub-treasury, in coin, but the secre-
tary of the treasury may, after the ex-
piration Of two years from the passage
of this act, prescribe regulations for the
redemption of notes on demand of the
holder, in the amount the silver bullion
is worth, at the market price,
on the date of the redemption
of the notes thus redeemed in bullion.
The secretary may at his discretion coin
such portion of the silver purchased,
not less, however, than $4,000
monthly, as he may deem necessary to
provide for the redemption of the United
States notes. After two years minimum
coinage the requirement shall be reduced
to 81 ,U00, 900 per month.

MALCOLM W. FORD's FORECAST.

The Well Known Athlete Describe. the
Events and the Entries and Gives His
Views as to the Probable vIotors In the
Annual Amateur Championship Games.
The amateur championship games at
Analostan island, Washington, ID. c., Oct.
IL, will be an unusually important event
in the world of athletics There will he
nineteen events on the programme, iuclud
ing six distances at fiat running. two mt
hurdle racing. two at walking, one ut bi-
cycling. three at weight throwing, three
at jumping and two at tug OF war. The
great rivalry among the most prominent
athletic clubs OF the United States will be
settled for the ensuing year on this day.
and these organizations are leaving no
stone unturned TO strengthen their teams.
In the 100 and go yards runs the most
prominent contestants will be Luther Cary,
Fred Westing. Mortimer Remington, of
the Manhattan Athletic club; John Owen,
Jr., the present champion at these two dis
tAnces, and Harry Jewett, OF the Detroit
Athletic club, and perhaps q. II. Sheriff.,
OF the New York Athletic club. These are
the fastest men in the United States. and
the championship ut both these distances
will not 60 outside OF them. It Is thought
that Cary, Owen and Jewett have the best
chance OF coming to the front,
Remington and j. 5. Roddy, OF the Man
h~attans, and w. c.. Downs and W. c. Dohm.
OF the New York Athletic club, are the
most formidable contestants in the $40
yards class. The chances are that either
Downs or Remington will be the victor.
These same men, with George S. Tracey. of
Halifax, and j. W. Moffat. OF the Montreal
Amateur Athletic club. will combat for
honors In the $50 yards run. Tracey won
the American championship at this event
in 1857, and has not competed for the title
since. Tracey, Moffat, Downs and Dohm
will battle the iercost for the event this
year.
The one mile run will produce a great
field OF distance INT A. b. George,
7. p. Connect, W. Mccarthy and F. NJ
Carr. OF the Manhattan Athletic club. w.
ID. Day, the cross country champion, and
Ernest Hjertberg. OF the New Jersey Ath-
letic club, and perhaps T. c. Carter, OF the
New York Athletic club. will be the best
men In it, although the latter may be de
barred from entering on account OF his be
ing the paid Handicapped Of the A A. u.
IL is freely predicted that the best Ameri
can record, Am. 81 2-5s., will be crowded by
several OF the contestants. The same men,

Curtis, though n first class man in all de
partments Of the game, has earned his
great reputation with the stick" He Is
a hatsman OF the first water, and a sure
run getter. The indications at the present
time point to the likelihood of his being at
the head of rthe ,list among the batting
talent Of the Western association when
the season OF 1890 draws to a close. His
batting during the last three seasons has
been Of n uniformly high order. as the fol
lowing figures show;
In 1887 his average was 800; in 1888, .3Il;
in 1889, .29aFand this year he is on top

the neighborhood of6 feet, for r. X. Pritch-
ard and Fl. l. Hallock, OF the Manhattans
(holdinR records respectively of 5 Il. TX

be almost as close The best competitors

club OF the Schuylkill navy; w. Halpiu,

that % feet will be done by the winner,

not a competitor in the pole vault. first
honors will lie between E ID. Ryder. of
the New Yorks; R Curry, of the Boston
Athletic association and z. A. Cooper, of
the M~anhattans. Ryder has the best rec
ord OF the trio. his figures being 10 #

Putting the 10 pound shot, throwing the
10 pound hammer and throwing the 50
pound weight will turn out half u dozen
men put together like the mythical Her
cules. They are James S. Mitchell, w. L.
Coudon and George r. Gray, OF the New
Yorks; C. A J. Queckberner, f. l.. Lam
brecht and H. II. Janeway, OF the Manhat-
tans, and several outsiders. Gray Is picked
for the shot, Mitchell for the hammer and
Queckberner for the 30" The majority
of these men may also compete in the in
dividual tug OF war, but Q~ueckberner Is
almost a sure winner in this event. There
will also be "A tug OF war for teams of four
