ity with which the flames jumped, and,

fernandez shortly after by the fire
being checked by our own department.

MURDERED BY HIGHWAYMEN
A Nevada superintendent Shot
Through the Head.

NEVADA, CAL, Sept. us. Galavot-
ii, superintendent of the Derbic Drift
mine, was murdered by highwaymen
this morning, while coming to this city
with $1,000 in gold bars, just cleaned up
at the mine. GalayOtti and j. d. Os
trum were in a two horse buggy, ascend
ing the South Yubal river grade six
miles from this city, when rifle shot
was fired from the bank above. The
ball entered the back of GalaYotti's
head and emerged from his mouth,
causing instant death. Ostrum struck
the horses with a whip, urging them
into a run up the steep grade, just as
second shot was fired. The bullet en-
tered the neck of one Of the horses, but
a turn in the road soon took the team
out of range of the shooters. Ostrum
continued to force the team up the
grade, holding his companions dead
body in the vehicle with one arm and
being soaked from head to foot with his
life blood. Reaching the Mount Yer
non house, Ostrum left Galayotti's
body and hid the bullion in the brush,
and then rode to this city to notify the
officers. A wagon has just came out
after the dead superintendent body,
and several squads of armed men are
starting Tor the scene of the murder.

Disappears in Texas.

Ell PAso. Tex, Sept. 17.-Che gov
eminent rainmakers have everything
in readiness for the grand test to-mor-
row. AT 4 o'clock this afternoon John
L. Ellis, of the expedition, went up in
a balloon two miles to measure the hu-
nudity of the atmosphere. The balloon
bounded upward when turned loose and
went into the blue skies until it looked
like huge bird. When it was up a
mile number of explosions were set
off on the ground. The balloon fell i'll
the mountains, thirteen miles from the
city, and neither the balloon nor occu-
pant have been heard from. Since the
heavy explosions this afternoon heavy
dark clouds have gathered above Mount
Franklin, from which point the bonn
bardment took place.

who went up in balloon to measure
the humidity of the atmosphere, has re-
turned to the city. Sensational reports
that he was lost in the mountains and

QUEER FINANCIERING.
1t Bobs Up in a st. Louis Conn
mission Company.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 17.-George W. Up
dyke filed suit to-day against James Il.
l.. Keihlor, William Leftwich, Walter
Johnson, j. b. Goodrich and f. Grier, a
commission company, asking for an ac-
counting and the appointment of re-
ceiver for that company, which assigned
some time ago. The aVerments Of the
petition are somewhat sensational.
All the parties to the suit were stock
holders in the Gricr Commission COM
pauy, Uydyke and Keihlor being the
largest. The petition ayers that the
commission company was indebted to
the Exchange bank TO the amount OF
Sl23. 246, which it was unable to pay;
that Updyke and keihlOr agreed to be-
come personally responsible for the
amount; that notes were issued cover
ing the amount. OF the total amount,
SIS, 33l has been paid, 81 $50 by Kehlor
and Sl7,O 3S by Updyke. In his petition
Updyke alleges that lie paid his
share out of his means, but charges
Keihor with using the collection Of
the Grier Commission company 10 pay
his Updyke also charges that KeihlOr
since June, 1890, has appropriated to
his own use over 900 OF the funds OF
the Grer Commission company, and
that there is little left OF the assets but
some outstanding collections which are
of a doubtful character. The company
is indebted TO him, Updyke claims, in
the sum of $50, 1000. Mr.. keihIor was
seen to day and denied the statement
in toto, and says that far from being
indebted TO the firm, that the latter
owes him 100000.

Being requested by the press to announce

my political action has always been con-
trolled by my sense of duty as citizen, never
recog1 izing conflicting party obligations
Believing in this instance that not only have
the Interest of the whole people been sacri-
feed, Nut the existence of the Democratic
party jeopardiZed; for behind the nomina-
tons and in absolute control OF the party,
are men whose every sentiment OF patriotism
is sa4iect either to their personal ambition
or tltf4 self-greed, and the administration
of Iuolic affairs is shaped TO perpetuate
thei. rule. So complete is the power of
thess len, and so dictatorial have they be-
come. that members of the party are but
serf ssl far as political action is concerned
Coffin led subservience must make the con-
dition too degrading 10 be quietly borne by
Ameri( IN citizens. There Is but one way to
dislodg J the usurpers. The temporary de-
feat of inc party will be harmless compared
with the effects of their control. For the
welfare OF the state, ana i'll the interest of
the Democratic party to me my duty appears
clear which is to oppose the election of the
nomine !, of the Saratoga convention 10 such
extent Is may be within my power, and IN
such manner as may seem best 10 accomplish
that purpose. EDWARD h. JONES.
