HIS SISTERS HONOR.
CAUSE OF A SENSATIONAL TRAGEDY
At LITTLE ROCK.
A BULLET IN THE HEART
Of Ben Levinson Because He Sent
Two Improper Notes to the Sis
ter of Dave Laser-All the Par
ties Are Prominent Jews of
the South.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, July 23.-Ben
Levlnson. president of the Levinson-
Freideheim company, wholesale liquor
and tobacco dealers, was shot and in
stantly killed at Z O'clock this evening
by Dave Laser, a former empl0ye of the
company. Mr.. LevInsOn was standing
in the rear part of his store, when
Laser entered from the back door.
Without uttering word he leveled
double-barreled shotgun and emptied
the contents into his victims body.
The first shot entered the left shoulder
and passed through the heart. The
second shot passed through the right
thigh and found lodging place in the
floor. AS soon as he had emptied his
gun, Laser walked to the front door,
where he was placed under arrest. A
pistol was also found in his possession.
The news of the tragedy spread
like wildtire, and for several hours
the most intense excitement prevailed.
The shooting occurred in the
center of the business portion of the
city. Threats of lynching could be heard
on all sides. Only two persons were in
the store at the time the shooting oc-
CURED. Laser, when seen at the jail
tonight, said he killed Mr.. Levinson be-
cause he insulted his sister, Mrs. Leo
Thalmer, of New York. now on a visit
here. He claims Levipson sent mis- sis
ter two bad notes requesting her to meet
him. He says he has the notes in his
possession, and will produce them at
the examination trial Monday. The
murdered man was the father of large
family. He and his wife are connected
with the best Jewish families of the
South. Laser is also married man and
has been travelling for Leger & Co., of
Cincinnati. His brother, Jake Laser,
who accompanied him to the store, was
arrested late last night as an accom-
plice.

PENNILEss MINERS.
The Railways Assisting Them to

Get East.
OMAHA. Neb., July 23.-Now the
Union Pacific has joined in assisting
the penniless laborers of Colorado to
reach the East, where work and shelter
may be obtained. The two trains, well
loaded with men without means, are
coming through Nebraska tonight. The
first reached Grand Island about supper
time. The citizens there had taken a
supply OF provisions to the depot, and
while the tain was being switched i'll
the yards the unfortunate men washed
and ate their fill. After all had satisfied
their hunger The fragments of the lunch
were placed on the train. This outfit will
reach Omaha in tine morning. A second
Union Pacific train is about five hours
behind it. On Burline ton train which
reached this city tonight were $50 men
III various stages of progressive poverty.
They all tell the same story. They were
at work IN Colorado when the crash
came. They waited in expectation of a
resumption of work in the mines, but
matters grew worse instead of better
and as their means were exhausted they
were forced to leave. Many of them
show certificates OF deposits for money
i'll suspended banks. One party of six
reached Omaha in high glee over the
fact that one owned land on which he
could realize handsome sum. On in
vestigation, he found his land at the
bottom of Florence lake. He had been
swindled, and was worse off than he
imagined. All railroads are extending
free rides to the unemployed, and along
the line the people are exerting them
selves to feed the hungry and take care
of the sick. The men are honest in
their search for work. and do not tarry
long when work cannot be found. So
far no Outrages or depredations have
been reported and none are expected,
as all the tourists are sober and orderly.

COMMENT ON GRESHAM
Regarding CIeveland's Promises
to the Judge,

INDIANAPOLIS, July 23.-The inter
view of Gen. Torrens, In which he said,
1T is generally understood that Gresh-
am accepted the portfolio of state with
the understanding that he was to be the
next presidential candidate of the Dem
ocratic party" has led to great deal of
comment among the secretary's friends
i'll this city, and many of them are en-
phatic in denying that any such under
standing existed. A personal friend of
Judge Gresham, speaking of the inter-
view, said today that no such UNDER
standing exists. and that Gresham him
self regards such an event as entirely
problematical. He declared that it was
understood when Gresham entered the
cabinet that he would be elevated to the
supreme bench of the United States be-
fore Mr.. CleYeland'S term expired.

JEFFERSON VERY ILL.
The Great Comedian Has a Can
cerous Affection.


NEW YORK. July 23.-Joseph Jeffer-
son, the veteran actor, is near death, and
a cancerous affection of the neck is the
cause Of it. Mr.. Jefferson's physicians
have been so far steadily baffled by the
disease, which is attributed partly to an
inherited tendency and partly to care
iessness in the treatment of a boil that
appeared near the cervical vertebra
some time ago. However. the great
mystery thrown about the maIady makes
an accurate analysis impossible to OBJ
tain. CuriouSly enough, the matter
leaked out weee ago, aud curiously
enough Mr.. Jefferson's warm friend,
President Cleveland, was credited with
acancerous trouble instead of Mr.. JEFF
ferson. A skillful physician may keep
off the worst for some time to come, but
1t can be stated positively that radical
measures must speedily be resorted to if
Americas comedian is not soon to go the
way of Edwin Booth.

HELENA. Mont, July 25.-The cele-
brated Davis will case, in which Henry
A. Root is principal contestant, involv-
ing SlO,00O.OOO, is set for trial at Butte
tomorrow. While both sides say they
are ready for the trial, it is fact, never

more uncertain condition than it is
today. A good authority says the case
will never come to trial. and that some

on Monday. Though not plainly stated,
1t is intimated that the case will he COM

Nothing But Warn.
In these mills, where the orders have
been filled, work has been continued
with the usual number Of employees. and
the finished product, as it is turned off,
is stored to await better market. There
are 10000 employees, and they are anxious
over the turn of the tide, momentarlly
looking for a break in their work. One
establishment in Taunton has dis
charged $50 hands, but the leading con-
Germs anticipate no serious trouble.
There has been cancellation of orders
caused by the uneasiness of the money
market. The Whittenton company
would feel any upheaval worse than
any OF the other concerns, as it has 1,500
employees, but, rather than cause incOn-
venience to its hands or interruption to
probable business, would keep its looms
running. At the Crompton Loom works,
Worcester, 100 men have been idle dur
ing the summer, and the Knowles LoOm
works have let as many more go in the
same time. The trouble has not yet
ended, as many more of the men are to
be discharged within short time unless
The clouds clear away. In New Hamp-
shire the condition of affairs caused by
the Amoskeag mill shutting down is
shaky. In Biddeford, Me-, the Pepper
Ill and Laconia mills have 5000 hands,
and they view the outlook with by no
means kindly eyes. The York mills, in
Saco, have 1850 employees. and the idea
is. that they may be obliged to close up.
In Lewiston, Auburn and Waterville
