STOCKTON, July 5.-George Arbanasin.
an Austrian, who kept a wayside saloon
on the Copperopolis road, three miles
from this city, was murdered last night
about 10 O'Clock, but the crime was not
known until this morning. When a
nephew of the deceased went out from
town he found the lights burning and the
saloon open. The proprietor was lying
dead in the doorway of a small room
which opens from the barroom.
AT first it was thought Arbanasin had
been stabbed, but an examination of the
body at the morgue shows that he was
killed by shot from a large pistol or
rifle, which went through his left arm
and struck his heart. His pockets were
turned inside out, and the place had been
ransacked for money.
Arbanasin had trouble with a fellow
countryman about two years ago, and It
was thought that an explanation of the
killing might be found in that affair, as
deceased always feared an attack, but the
belief now is that it was the work q
drunken fellow who had no grudge or q
robber who entered and demanded coin.
small room, and from the position Of the
body it is thought he started to get the
gun after the assault and was shot while
entering the room, as death must have
been instantaneous.
Farmers living a short distance from
the saloon heard shots there about 10
O'Clock last night, but paid no attention
to them, thinking it was the play of some
drunken man who was celebrating the
Fourth of July.
A man has been found who lives on q
ranch near by and tells a queer story.
He says he stopped at the place about
midnight to get drink and saw Arbana-
sin lying on the floor He tried to awaken
the saloon-keeper by kicking his boot,
and falling to do so, helped himself to a
drink and went home A farmer who
passed there at 1I:3O o'clock last night
said the place was lighted. but no one
seemed to be in the house. Arbanasin
was there laying dead on the floor, but
could not be seen from the road.
His nephew worked as a waiter in a
| restaurant here all night, and returned
home at about o'clock this morning.
He was the one who reported the killing.
Arbanasin was a single man, about 30
years of age. He was known to always
have few hundred dollars in the house.
His nephew lived with him, and this was
his first night away. So far there is no
clue to the murderer.

Topeka (Kas.), July 5.-The gravity of
the condition of the farmers of Western
Kansas continues to grow more serious,
and unless they are soon provided with
substantial aid the country will be de-
serted by those able to get away, while
those compelled to remain will suffer for
the necessaries of life. A call has been
made for convention of representatives
of the drought-stricken counties to meet
at Leoti, Wichita County to discuss some
plan for providing seed wheat.
TOPEKA, July 5.-Governor Lewelling
has been importuned to call an extra ses-
sion of the Legislature, to take action for
the relief of farmers in tie western part
of the State who have no seed wheat on
account of the drought. He says the ex-
igencies or the case are not great enough
to warrant such a course. While the
wheat is failure, the corn prospect was
never better.

BUENos AYREs, July 5.-Members of

Saenz Pena that they intend to resign.
The President asked the Cabinet to delay
action few days and then invited Aris-

President appealed to Quintano to form a

will also decline to serve, and if he does

PARIS, July 5.-An official investiga-
ton into the disorders of yesterday show
that most of the rioting was not by stu
dents, but by the riff-raff OF the city, who
took advantage of the occasion to raise a
disturbance. This class resumed the riot
ing this morning, and had numerous
conflicts with the police and soldiery, and
numbers on both sides were injured.
The affair assumed such a serious as
pect that the authorities determined to re-
store order at any cost. Almost the whole
city is occupied by troops, who have Or
ders to repress the disorders with a strong
hand.
The body Of Nuger, the young man
who was killed in yesterdays riots, was
conveyed by infrequented streets to the
Lyons railway station this morning and
sent to the home of his parents at Lyons,
to avoid another uprising.
The mob has been coWed by the deter
mined front presented by the Government
in calling out the military, and all was
quiet up to 5 O'Clock this evening. 1t is
feared, however, that the trouble will
soon be renewed. The Government will
order the troops to fire volleys into the
crowds if necessary.
The trouble originally rose from the
lining of the manager of the students
ball for allowing the girls to appear in a
state little removed from nudity. The
students, however, became disguised
with the roughs for carrying things so
far and withdrew from the streets. and
only the scum of Paris is now concerned
in the riots.
The students assure the Government
that they no longer have any sympathy
with the trouble and have posted pIacards
to that effect.
1t is believed that the Boulangists
are fostering the troubles for political
ends.
There was scene of uproar in the
Chamber of Deputies over motion to
proceed to discuss the riots in the city
which the Government opposed.
The Extremists precipitated a scene of
utmost disorder over the matter and it
was impossible to transact any business
for some time. Finally the matter was
postponed by decided majority.
RIoTING RESUMED.
PARIS, July 5.-Rioting was resumed
at $3.50 O'Clock tonight. The mob as
sumed threatening attitude and the
police charged. The rioters made a de-
termined stand and hand-to-hand fight
followed. The struggle continued until
the police were reinforced by large
force of Republican Guards, when the
rioters dispersed.
At IL o'clock there was a sanguinarv
encounter on rue de Secoles. The exact
details are wanting, but it is known that
the Republican Guards charged the riot
ers with drawn swords and the police
opened fire with revolvers. One man
was killed by cut from a saber. Others
were taken to neighboring drug stores.
where their wounds were dressed. An
other mob set fire to tram-car and
burned it to ashes. The Assistant Briga-

PUEBLO, Coli, July 5.-The bank
panic did not reach Pueblo until this
morning, and then it came with a ven
geance. When the American National
opened for business large number of de-
positors were waiting to take out their
money. The crowd grew, and about 10
O'Clock the doors were closed. A notice
was posted stating that the bank would
commence business again soon, and that
the assets were 81, ,250,OJO and the liabiIi-
ties $780, 900.
Runs commenced on both the Western
National and the First National. The
Western National closed its doors before
noon. They have deposits Of over s, ,OOO.- =
600, and were always considered very
strong. Hundreds stood in and about the
First National Bank all day, and the de-
positors were paid as fast as the paying
teller could handle them. The general
expectation is that the First National
will be able to pay its creditors in full
when called for. and they cannot be
forced to close.
The Central National closed at noon.
The assets are about $4,000, and the
liabilities about $4,000.
A run was made on the Pueblo Savings
Bank, but they took advantage of the law
which allows them sixty days. The bank
is regarded as perfectly safe.
y much better feeling prevails this
evening, and the worst is believed to
have passed. Each Of the closed banks
will pay in full as soon as they can
realize on collateral.
