STOCKTON, Oct. 19.-Last night about
midnight Frank Murray, a young man
employed in the boiler works of the
Combined Harvester and Agricultural
Works, was stabbed through the heart
and fell dead after walking almost two
blocks. The stabbing occurred near the
corner of Washington and American
streets. Murray walked to house occu-
pied by Mrs. Lewis, staggered onto the
porch and called her out, telling her that
he was stabbed.
George NJ. Crawford, lodger in the
house and a fellowworkman, asked Muir
ray who cut him aud lie replied, ''l-ou
know too WE'LL" and he then expired.
At o'clock this morning the police
locked up William Seanlan and Tom
Lewis as the supposed murderers. Lewis
is known to have had a grudge against
Murray, an account of Murray's inter
ference on Thursday night, when Lewis
attacked William Ray, the superintend-
ent of the boiler works, breaking his
(Ray's) jaw and infiicting other bruises
that have kept him in his bed since.
Up to late hour tonight the murder
mystery was yet unsolved, but it is be-
lleved by the officers that the truth will
come out. Four men are in jail-Tom
and Charles Lewis, brothers, and the
sons OF the woman at whose door Murray
fell dead; Bill Scanlan, a young fellow
who was with Tom Lewis when he turned
into the street where the murder was
committed, shortly before the stabbing,
and William Massey, "A railroad brake
man who, with his wife, lived in the
house where the deceased roomed.
The relatives of Lewis are inclined to
throw suspicion on Massey, by reason of
his jealousy, as Murray was out walking
with his wife an hour before the killing.
But Massey tells straight story, and
shows where he was until his wife went
after him and led him home from a beer
saloon, at about II O'Clock.
Mrs. Massey tells the officers that when
she went down town with deceased last
evening" he told her he was afraid of
trouble with Tom Lewis, because he had
interlered when Lewis was beating
Murry's fellow workman, Ray, last
Thursday night. Murray said that Lewis
had it in for him.
Sheriff Cunningham found a DISPOSE
suspicion on the others, and he ordered
Massey locked up until matters can be
further Investigated.
At the inquest tonight it was shown
that the thrust in the heart was made
with pocket-knife. Sheriff Cunning
ham has bloody knife, which was found
in the back part Of lot near where the
scuflle took place when Murray was
stabbed. The jury found no new facts,
ana said the killing was done by some
person unknown

HoNoLULU, Oct. 12-The election for
Mobiles passed off very quietly, and the
National Reform candidates, Male and
Hopkins lin favor Of the Ministry, went
in by a large majority.
Marshal Wilson is still in office, but his
matters will be the basis for a move in
the near future against the Cabinet when,
in few days, another vote of want of

The United States steamer Alliance ar
rived from China this morning, and the

ment here. An lS-foOt boat with mate and
ten men arrived at Hilo, Hawaii, on the
2lst of September, the crew being res
cued by some Hawaiian fishermen
Mr.. Johnson, the sailmaker, gave the
following story: Had pleasant weather
till we struck the gale, which dismasted
the vessel in three hours, and she at once
filed with water. All hands were ordered
aft, and. remained there till the storm
aoated, about '9 A. ~, when the sea
went down, and by II y. N. was quite
calm. one boat and sailor Were washed
overheard, and we hauled the other two
boats on the poop deck and made ready
Tor sea. We had very little water, and
were not as well provisioned as the Cap
tain's boat.
The Captains wife was delicate
woman and the baby was only about a
year old. The Captain set fire to the
wreck after ordering the men to the
boats. AS we were leaving, the Captain
got sail-needles and added a piece of can
vas to his sail, so that he could sail as fast
as we could. We headed Tor the latitude
OF Hilo and ran across. The men soon
played out when the water and wine gave
out, and we had a hard time until twenty
three days out we sighted land, and the
next day we made il all right.
