Hands of ". N. Pardue.

X h slaughter, Jr', Meats HIS Death at the
Hands of W. n. Pardue.
Special to the Gazette.
KAUFMAN, TEX, April PA gloom
was cast over our city yesterday evening
by the report of the killing of R. F.
Slaughter, Jr., by W. Nj. Pardue, a
prominent young lawyer Of this city
also justice of the peace of Precinct No
I which occurred about three and a half
miles northwest from Kaufman, about
2:30 O'Clock p. m. The cause of the
shooting, as we ere informed was the
seduction of Pardue' g sister by Slaughter.
On learning of the misfortune of his
sister, Pardue armed himself and went
to ~Slaughter's house, which is four
miles northwest from Kaufman, and
not finding Slaughter at home, in
quired of his wife wher he was, and on
being informed of his whereabouts Par
due went off in the direction indicated by
Mrs. Slaughter, and soon met Slaughter
sitting on his wagon. Pardue then got
out of his buggy and went up TO Slaugh-
ter, and after q few words drew his pis-
toll and fired three shots at Slaughter,
two of which took effect, one striking
him IN the small of the back and coming
out in front, the other striking him in the
cheek and coming out at the back of the
head. After the shooting Pardue got
into his buggy and was hastily driven
back to town and gave him
self up to the sheriff. He
was accompanied by City Marshal
A. N. G~leghorn, who witnessed the
shooting, but was wholly ignorant of
Pardue' IS intention up to the time of the
fatal tragedy. Mr. Slaughter has @ wife
and one child. Both parties are well
connected here. The affair is sadly de-
pIored by all. Slaughter is the son of
Capt. r. F. Slaughter, county attorney
of this county. Slaughter died at $3.50
this morning and was conscious 70 within
ten minutes of his death. An inquest
will be held over Slsughter's body this
ARafaing.

GOVERNMENTS, srooKs AND BONDS.

New YORK, April 12.-The stock market was
= little more active to-day than during the same
hours for many days and, on the whole, showed
more strength than any previous time this week.
Bears were again active and aggressive in early
trading, encouraged by considerable London
selling. Changers were still the principal point
of attack, and Rock Island, Burlington and
Quincy and st. Paul were leaders, both in point
Of activity and weakness. Gould stocks, on the
contrary, were quite firm, and Missouri
Pacific showed great strength, around
zoe, giving evidence of inside buying. A liberal
covering of shorts in the last half hour had the
effect of rapidly advancing prices all over the
list, and as a rule early losses were entirely
wiped out. Tennessee coal declined 2 per cent.
while Colorado coal displayed marked strength,
especially in the last hour. when it rose 1Ac.
The market finally closed quiet, but firm. and
generally at insignificant changes from last
cases, advanced, but for slight fractions only.

"old-Time" Nominating Convention.

Special to the Gazette.
CoRsICANA, Tex, April 12.-The Ma
varro county Democracy decided through
its executive committee in session to-
day, in favor of the old-time nominal
ting convention instead of a primary
election. The party boilers of two years
ago ~endeavored to influence the commit
tee in favor of the primary plan. Their
efforts were futile, as the committee
only lacked one vote of being unani-
nous IN favor OF the time-honored con-
yention. A resolution was adopted as
follows: Any Democrat who voted for
Governor Ross at the last election and
who will pledge support 10 the nominees
OF the party in November next, and who
has not affiliated with any other political
party, will be entitled to a seat in the
convention if properly elected thereto.
The date of the county conven ton was
fixed for the third Saturday in ] uly.

KINDRED ENTERPRISES.

Packing houses n refrigerators are
the ropes that will pull other industries
to Fort Worth. They will bring a lard
refining factory, an oleomargarine fac
tory, a beef-canning factory, tin a
factory, a barrel factory, a box factory,
a glue factory, q button factory, a
brush factory and others. All these will
be brought to Fort Worth. Is it not
worth the effort of every merchant and
real estate owner to bring this about?
Trade will increase and real estate in
every part of the city will increase in
value, and especially will this be true of
the lots in beautiful Paramount addition,
lying, as they do, adjoining the city,
not far from the Wesleyan college.

FoRT WORTH, TEX. April Z, 1890. I
An immense business was transacted by the
retail merchants to-day. Every department
was t~hronged with buyers throughout the entire
day. There was an unusual number of people
in from the surrounding country, and a good
portion Of the trade was from this source, while.
too, the city's people were out in great NUN
bers, the day being very pleasant.
Wholesale houses report trade up to the
standard in every particular. The week has
been a very satisfactory one to both wholesalers
and retailers.
The general markets were well pre- pared for
the DAYS trade, and dealers succeeded in sup
plying all demands, and all markets closed firm
at unchanged prices.

ohicaeo,s Winter Packing.


The Chicago Daily Trade Bulletin, in its an
nual report of the pork packing OF Chicago,
says: ''The returns of the packers shows the
number of hogs packed for the summer season
of 1889 to have been 2,294, O27, an increase or
519, 799 compared with the returns OF the sum
mer season of 1888. The total number OF hogs
reported packed during the winter season
(from the reopening OF the packing houses
in October until March u was 2, 179, 44o, an in
crease Of 749, Ut compared with the returns OF
1SS8-S9. The aggregate number OF hogs slaugh-
tered during the twelve months ending March l.
1890, was 4, 473, 467, or 1, 269, SIG more than during
the previous twelve months. In the aggregate
manufacture of products during the past year
there has been a very large increase, more par
t~icularly of the descriptions required for the ex-
port trade. Taking into consideration the guam
titles of products manufactured and received
here, there have been very few years when the
provision trade of Chicago exceeded that
of the year ending March 1, 1890. The total
number of cattle slaughtered was 2,2O6, 165 dur
ing the year ending March l, 1890, against
2,052, 1927 for the year previous and l, 1863, O5l for
the year before that. OF the cattle slaughtered
during the year ended March l, ultimo, about
L ,S00, 600 were required for the dressed beef
trade. The following table exhibits the receipts

ALLEGED UNPRoFITABLE TRADE OWING TO THE

A communication to a prominent English

Permit me to draw the attention of the cotton
trade to the disastrous position of spinners and

this year, as compared with the commencement

equivalent on the cloth namedto la per ID. The
margin, therefore, between cotton and yarn IS
I'D per Ii, and that between yarn and cloth
5-16d per ID worse since the commencement of
the year. The margin between cotton and cloth
is 13-16d per ID worse.
At the prices at the commencement of the
year the spinner had a profitable trade; this has
now gone with the advance in cotton. The
manufacturer could barely see his own back at
working to a heavy loss. Goals and mill stores
have advanced in price during the past three
probably go on throughout the year, unless
some steps are taken to reduce the production,
which is keeping cotton up and cloth down. I'm
will be the worst for the manufacturers since the
disastrous year of 1885.

Fish Turned to Stone.

The Oh iIyl of covering dead irdies
with Il INN of metal ana So rendering
their face and form practically impcr
ishable has lately bCen revived. but il
ear hardly be SAID To have been re.
cciyed with favor. The petTiIacliono OF
the human body, however. isa field in
which for many years Italian scientists
have worked with no little success.
The process at present adopted is only
4 partial rcdlScoyery Of the secret pro
cess of Segato, the Florcniine. The
body of Joseph Maz2ani n by il
turned into almost transparent marble,
and when on the fifth anniversary OF
.he death Of the patriot his coffin was
opened in the presence of some of his
faithful followers, they found his face
quite unchanged.
Some of the bodies thus treated are
solid, permanent p~clriiications; some
are provisional, capable Of returning
to a fresh condition; all preserve the
fullness and Transparency of lie, while
mos, are in a pliable condition. 1t is
stated that all the varied members OF
the body are hard at Iirst. but become
after awhile supple, and eve capable
of furnishing studies in the anatomy
of muscles, veins and nerves. New
