DARROW SAYS THE REPORT WAS
FALSE.

E. G. barrow called at the Times Of
fee yesterday evening and stated that
the report sent out from Martinsburg
recently concerning his connection
with the Opera House at that place
and his leaving there to evade credi-
tors was untrue and that it could have
eminated only from some evil-minded
person for the purpose Of iniuring him.
Since leaving Martinsburg, Mr.. Oar.
row says, he has been travelling
through the South and did not see the
story until reaching Washington when
copy of the Times containing the
article copied from an eastern paper
gave him the first intimation of the
attack upon him. It turns out that
Mr.. Darrow is an Allegany boy and is
wellknown in this county where he
has relatives and many friends. Cum.
berland Times.
IHE WORLD published the report
concerning Darrow at the time, and
again makes the statement that he did
leave here to evade creditors. Among
his victims here were The Statesman,
The Independent, The WORLD, the Quen-
eel Printing House, Baker 6 Rearick,
clothiers, C. C. Bennett, his former
clerk, John W. Neer, groceries, John
w. Homrich, shoes, etc., and a mum
Der of other bills. At the time he left
here about $40 rent was due Capt.
John Fellers, who leased the New
Opera House to him. His leaving
suddenly was premeditated from the
fact that he disposed of his effects here
at great sacrifice, and number OF
his creditors afterward tried to make
the money but could find no property.
Darrow might be kind enough to come
down to our city and make state.

.cAp. HATFIELD KILLED.

A dispatch from louisa, KY, to the
New York World says: Raftsmen from
the head Of the Tug Fork of the Big
Sandy river have brought the news
that "Cap" Hatfield was killed a few
evenings ago in q row over game Of
poker in his house among outlaws,
who had solemnly vowed perpetual
friendship. In the mountains of Lo-
gan county, West Virginia, near the
secluded retreat Of the notorious "Bad
Anse" Hatfield, was the house of
"Cap" Hatfield, whose record for muir
ders in the Hatfield McC Coy fued stands
second only to that Of his brother
.Anse.n Cap Hatfield, adds the
World, was regarded as the worst
member Of the Hatfield gang, though
he had not, perhaps, killed as many
people as his brother, 'sBad Anse.n
When the authorities announced the
rewards for the capture Of this family
of criminals, cap" headed the list Of
81, $50. 'sBad Anser and .Jonce''
Hatfield were each valued at 500,
which would show that "Cap" was
looked upon as about equal to two Of
the most famous criminals West Vir-
ginia has ever produced. ''Cap' Hat
field was charged with a number Of
cold blooded murders.
