CONFESSED HIS CRIME.

A California Mystery Cleared up--Re-
leased for Want of Evidences.
MARYsVfLLE, Cal, Aug. 2.-William
J. Ousley, the negro who has been con
fined in the county jail for several months
upon the charge of numbering George
Ball, of this city the night of July 16,
1890, was released yesterday for want of
evidence to convict. Subsequently he
was arrested on complaint of Under
Sheriff Bevan. Today he confessed his
crime in the presence of Sheriff Saul,
Under Sheriff Bevan and the court re-
porter who took the confession down in
shorthand. He duplicates Maddox and
George Collins, who was shot and killed
in Stockton some six weeks ago. The
confession was obtained from Ousley by
the use of two miniature photographs of
sisters of Ball, which were in locket
on the chain that was stolen, and which
Ball wore when he was killed. The
blows which ended Balls existence were
struck by Maddox and Collins, who set
the fire going around his body. Ousley
was stationed on the outside as a look
out. He stated that he felt much re-
lieved after he had confessed the crime.

CATTLETsBURG, KY, Aug. Wayne
county W. Va, was the scene of a series
of murders Friday night. Mr.. Brum-
field, his wife and five children were
murdered in the most horrible manner,
and their bodies consumed by fire.
About midnight fifty common Italian
railroad laborers became drunk and
started on tour of destruction. The
Brumfieids were thought to have con-
siderable money. The Italians went to
theirresidence and We're refused admis-
sion. The doors and windows were
then forced open. Mr.. Brumfeld with
his two half grown sons fought with
desperation, but were finally murdered,
their throats being cut and their bodies
being repeatedly stabbed. Mrs. Brom-
field and her three children were next
killed by the Italians, who then
searched the house for money and set it
on fire. Mr.. Brumfield was an inf1uen-
tial and wealthy man. Two years ago,
while county commissioner, he opposed
the building of new court house and
thus made many enfmies. The court
house was built and it is thought that
Friday nights work was the result of an
old feud and that Brunfield's enemies
Supplied the Italians with liquor and
pointed out the path to his residence.

2sd OF February negotiations were COM
menced for the removal of their extensive
plant to East Richmond. This work has
progressed so rapidly that it IL safe TO say
that by the lst of August next 1t Will have
been completed.
The next company that saw the chance
OF success standing out in bold colors in
East Richmond was the Buffalo New
York; Lock Manufacturing Company. Ne
Gotiations were opened with Mr. ID, II.
Fitzgerald, of this company, on the 18th of
last February. They were pressed with so
much zeal that the company intends to
celebrate Independence this day by hav-
ing their machinery ready to start up full

ployment to not less than 500 skilled work
men at the start. and their intention is to
