LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. lO.-The list Of
Lexington murders Of the past seven
ty-two hours received two additions
yesterday evening, when Henry Tray
nor laid out two men in front OF the
Leland hotel-one with dirk, and the
other with his gun. The Breckinridge-
Owens trouble is behind the battle.
On Wednesday at Athens, in political
row, Henry Green shot and fatally
wounded John Toomey. Yesterday
Toomey, Llewellyn Sharpe, n brother
Of ex-state Treasurer Sharpe, and Isaac
Davidson, the distller and farmer,
came to town. Henry Traynor, the
town marshal OF Athens, was also here.
He isa breckenridge man, while Sharpe
and his friends are Owens cohorts. As
they were preparing to leave town the
men met in front of Hotel Leland, and
Sharpe and Traynor became involved
in wordy argument, which ended in
Traynor giving Sharpe the lie. The
two men went for each other Traynor
drew his dirk and split open Sharpe's
head. The blood from the wound
blinded Sharpe, and Traynor plunged
the dirk into his left side, just in the
rear of the heart, At this point
Toomey, friend OF Sharpe rushed in
and knocked Traynor down. As Tray
nor arose Isaac Davidson another
friend of Sharpe, made for him. Tray
nor drew two pist Is and shot point
blank at Davidson, and covered Sharpe
and Toomey with the other one Sharpe
and Davidson dropped to the ground,
and Traynor walked over them to the
fire department house and surrendered.
Davidson, who is about 55 years of age,
died in few moments, while Sharpe,
who is about the same age, Is now In
critical condition, but may pull
through.

AMERICAN BEEF.
It's Exclusion by Germany Based
on an American Authority.
RETALIAIIyC AGAINST AMERICANS.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Agricultural
department officials, who are watch
ing the progress Of negotiations be
tween Germany and the United States
over the question Of excluding Ameri
can cattle, incline to the belief that by
her latest move the European power
has prepared for clever stroke Of
diplomacy. The announcement from
semi-oficial sources that the German
government had agreed to leave the
crucial point of dispute-whether OF
not Texas fever could be communicated
to other cattle by the importation OF
American stock--to the preponderance
Of expert opinion, seemed on its face a
material concession TO the United
States. 1t might have been accepted
as such, but for the qualifying state
ment that their chief authority would
be Frank Billings, of Nebraska.
The work of DR.. Billings is well
known at the department. lie was
formerly connected with the state az.
ricultural experiment station OF Ne
braska and other labors which he con-
Quoted and which brought his name
before the public were experiments
upon swine in furtherance Of an in
occulation theory which the scientific
man of the denartment smiled at.
A thorough investigation Of the prop
apatiop Of Texas fever, conducted by
the bureau Of animal industry before
the present complication with Ger
many had arisen led TO conclusions
which preclude the belief that the germ
could be spread abroad by the exporta-
tion Of northern cattle. DR.. Billings,
however antaoonized DR.. Salmon's
verdict and wrote paper which fur
nished inst the authority the Germans
would doubtless desire
Officials saw that it is evident that
Germanv has secured the writings OF
DR.. Billings on the subject, hence its
avowed intention to rest ;ts case on his
on,n;or puraon sc;ontists ASSERT that
