FARMLAND, Ind. May Is. - Yesterday
n z. after Hon. John w. Clayton. presi-
dent of the Farmers and Citizens Bank. in
this city. had returned to his farm. three
miles southeast Of here. two well-dressed
men drove mp to his house. and after engag-
ing In q short conversation, said they
wanted to buy q farm. After o short time
q trade was made. The men then proposed
to Mr.. Clayton that they drive MP to Win
chester and have the deeds prepared. TO
which he consented. While they were
driving along the road one of the
men got out of his buggy and
entered tho buggy with Mr.. Clayton.
They had not gono far until the stranger
sprung the monte game, and invited Mr..
Clay ton to play. at which he declined. say
ing be was q church member, and never
played cards. At this the stranger seized
Mr.. Clayto ton. trying to force him to give MP
what money he had. Mr. Clayton. being
too strong for the stranger, got the best of
him and tumbled him out of the buggy into
the ditch. He then laid the whip to his
horse and finally got awav from them.
He vent on to Winchester and notified
Sheriff Fletcher. who gave chase. After
running the men nearly twenty miles the
chase was given III. At last reports they
were still at large. A reward has been Of
fered for their arrest.

Attendance at the Worlds Fair.
CHICAGO, May 1a-Wben the gates were
thrown open at the world's fair tnis morn.
ing the prospects for q large attendance
were anything but promising. A chilly
wind was blowing. the atmosphere was
damp and dull. leaden-hued clouds over
cast the sky. But the threatening I'M
pleasant weather did not seem to brighten
the visitors. They began to arrive early,
and rs the day advanced tho arrivals in
creased at the rate of geometrical progress
sion until il began to look as If the last
day of the second week of the fair was to
be the banner day up to date. Towards
noon the wind died away, the dismal
clouds shifted aud the sun came out and
before night 1t was estimated that
there were from forty thousand TO
sixty thousand visitors on the grounds. A
feature was the number of school children
who visited the fair to-day. 1t was their
regular weekly holiday and thousands OF
them took advantage of it by taking In the
great exhibition at Jackson Park.
A good deal of interest 10 being taken In
the number of visitors who have paid adj
mission daily, since it started, Is compared
to the attendance during a similar period
at the Centennial. at philadelphia. The
daily attendance. eufhoritatively furnished
by the bureau of admissions. shows that
already it Is much larger than that of the
Centennial at the commencement OF the
season. The attendance at the Columbian

screen Goods" swindIer Shot.

BROOKLYN, N. Y, May 13.-George
Phillips. o green goods man, was shot
this evening and. iI is believed, fatally
wounded by q man named Joseph Hall,
who cane here from SteelsoD, Pa. for the
purpose of buying 81, 200 of counterfeit
money which he believed could be passed
without detection. The shooting closely
resembles the celebrated Davis Holland
bunco case in New York. of q few years ago.
in which the sharper was shot by the man
whom he intended to victimize.
Joseph Hail. in company with his
brother Robert, met Phillips and q confed-
crate named Wagner in Elizabeth this
forenoon, and the four men came TO Green
point, where Wagner induced Joseph TO en-
ter q carriage, while Phillips took Robert
into q restaurant. Wagner produced q
bag which he said contained the counter
felt money, and Hall showed him $3.50
which he was to pay for it. The two
got out OF the carriage near the
ferry, just as q crowd of people
were coming from q New York ferry boat.
Wagner suddenly seized Hall and took the
money from him and escaped into the
crowd. The countryman. after vainly try
ing to find Wagner, returned to
the restaurant. where Phillips had his
brother In tow. Joseph pulled out
q pistol, a after saying he
would get revenge out Of Phillips If he
could not out of Wagner shot the bunco
man in the groin, intiictIng q wound which
is believed will result fatally. The Hall
brothers are in jail, but Wagner has not
been arrested.
