A SERIOUS LOSS.

Burning of the MIL which Produced the
Distinctive Paper for the Use of the
Treasury Department with Nearly All
the Stock on Hand.
WASHINGTON, April 16. = Secretary
Foster was yesterday notified that the
Pittsfield (Mass.) mill where the dis
tinctive paper used by the government
in printing paper currency is manufac-
tured, was destroyed by fire Thursday
night, and the entire government sup
ply of paper with the exception of 24O.-
600 sheets of treasury paper upon which
currency is printed and go, 900 sheets of
paper upon which treasury checks are
printed, was burned.
M. A. Huntington, from the secre-
tary's Office, left for Springfield yester-
day morning to secure more distinctive
paper, as the amount on hand is much
below the pressing needs, and also to
prevent if possible, the remnants of
paper in the ruins getting into the
hands of outsiders. The distinctive
paper now in use was only adopted a
few months ago, and after an investi-
CATION of the merits of different kinds

paper which would cause great delay

PROBABLY A MURDER,
But the Authorities are Trying to SUI

But the Authorities are Trying to Sup
press the Facts, Evidently for Pur-
pose.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 16.-The
circumstances attending a brutal MUIR
der developed last night with the death
of Samuel Clayton at the City hospital,
but there seems to be an effort on the
part of the authorities to prevent the
facts from coming out. On April Clay
ton was taken to the hospital on Cor
oner Markers order, and died yester-
day of conclusion of the brain. There
were several bruises at the base of the
skull, but the coroner, who was called
to see him at the Crawford house, says
that they were received by falling down
stairs.
1t now develops that Clayton, T. J..
Burton, the keeper of a gambling room,
and others were playing cards in the
club room at the Crawford house when
fight ensued. Burton, it is said, beat
Clayton over the head with a billiard
cue, and the next day closed his place
and left for parts unknown, Clayton
having in the meatime been removed to
the city hospital.
The coroner said last night that Clay
ton was not murdered, but several
persons at the Crawford house gave the
details of the affair, and the fight of
Burton makes il evident that Clayton
died from violence.

Trouble Expected a. Coal Creek.

KNOXVILLE, April 15-Trouble at Coal
Creek continues. The firing on the
troops by the miners last night has
probably brought the long-impending
crisis. Camp Anderson's telegraph ope-
rator, Maddo, is missing. A hint was
dropped by the miners some days ago
that the troops and convicts would have
TO go 'when the leaves come out" All
the miners quit work yesterday after
noon and were seen conversing ex-
citedly in groups. The miners pay off
tomorrow and the troops will also get
their monthly allowances. This means
lively time for the miners, and the
troops fear another conflict. Some OF
the soldiers got drunk this afternoon
and terrorized the town.

time In his administration Gov. Ba-
him the Board of Prison Inspectors,
Secretary of State Miller, Com ptroller
Allen and Treasurer House. Some days
ago sealed bids were asked by the Board
of Public Works from contractors for
the erection of sewer In the city OF
Nashville The lowest bidder was j. f.
Goodwin, sab-lessee of convicts. After
much legal investigation the contract
was given Goodwin yesterday, and today
the mandamus was filed.
Mandamus proceedings asked show
that under the laws of the State OF TEN
nessee governing and controlling con-
vict labor, said original lessees nor any
sub-lesee can put said convicts to do
any work other than that of working In
mines, on railroads, or farms, except by
order of said Board of Inspectors and
the Governor of the State of Tennessee;
that said Goodwin and no one else for
him has procured an order from said
Board of Prison Inspectors and the said
Governor allowing the lessee or sub
lessee to use convicts for that purpose,
or any work of the kind designated, and
said board refuses to take any action as
such in respect to the question, but puts
the refusal upon the ground that 1T has
no right to act on the matter either to
give consent thereto, take action against
the same, or in respect thereto, but de-
clihss to act in the matter in any respect.
