CHEROKEE BILL AGAIN.

He Kills Waterman in the Federal
Prison at Fort Smith.
FORT SMITH, Ark, July 26.-Chero-
kee Bill got his hands on another re-
volver Yesterday, and used it in an
attempt to liberate prisoners confined
in murderers' row of the United
States Jail His attempt was bold
one and resulted in the death of Larry
Heating, the oldest guard on the force.
Night Waterman Tom Parker and
Larry Heating had just gone on duty
and Turn6eys Eof and Mcconnell
were engaged in locking up.
When Eof reached the cell next to
Cherokee Bills he found the keyhole
plugged, and while he was trying to
clean it ont Cherokee Bill came to the
door and fred, shooting Heating
through the stomach. He ran to the
end of the corridor and fell dead. EOff
ran back to the corridor and the east
side of the cells, and Mcconnell,
Parker and several deputy marshals
ran in and opened fire on Cherokee
Bill whenever he tried to leave his
cell. His ammunition was nearly ex-
hausted and he agreed to surrender
his pistol to Henry Starr, which was
done.
The pistol with which he did the
deadly work was new pearl handled
41-caliper. How he got it is mys-
terry, but Josie Brown, his sister, who
has been here several days and visited
him twice, has been arrested for it,and
is now in the county jail. Heating has
been employed at the jail for ten years
and was a careful man. He leaves a
wife and four children, besides many
other relatives here. He was very pop
ular and many threats of lynching
have been made, though the citizens,
who were terribly excited, are now be-
coming cooler.
Crawford Goldsby, alias Cherokee
Bill, alias Gorilla. is only 10, but has
been convicted of train robbery and
murder. One murder case is pending
in the supreme court of the United
States, and the charge of killing his
brother-in-law is still on the docket
here.

Ambassador Eustis Makes a Second De-
mand to See the Fx-Kansan.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-The officials
of the state department are at present
anxiously awaiting information from
Ambassador Eustis as to the manner
in which the second demand for
the record of the Waller court
martial, which was held in
Tamative, has been received in France.
1t is now learned definitely that the
French government refused to furnish
the record upon the first presentation
of the request, and that this refusal
was met on the part of the state
department by a more positive
and pressing deuand for all the pa
pers. The department is informed by
Mr. Eustis that this demand has been
presented. There has been quite
sufficient time for reply, but none
had been received. The course of the
French in their refusal to supply the
record is considered most unusual, and
as no explanation was vouchsafed the
department is at loss to know upon
what grounds it was based.
There is good reason for believing
that in case of a second refusal by
France to supply the record a third de-
mand will be made more peremptoFy.
The state department authorities con-
slider the case as one of Importance be-
cause it is liable to develop some very
delicate and intricate questions before
it shall finally be disposed of.

Be Hard Legal Fight.

Durrant's Trial for Murder Promises to
Be Hard Legal Fight.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-On the
fourth day of the trial of Theodore
Durrant for the murder of Blanche
Lamont, the work of choosing a jury
began in earnest. Slow progress was
made. Of fifteen examined, only one
was passed and he may be challenged
by the defense later on. The main
question of the prosecution to jurors is
would you convict man and intiict
the death penalty on circumstantial
evidence?"
The defendants questions are based
upon the familiarity with the news
paper comments upon Durrant and the
crime of which he is accused. Almost
all the jurors summoned have formed
impressions which will require strong
evidence to relieve. It is apparent the
defense will make hard fight on tech
n:ealities and will take advantage of
every loophole. Counsel for the pris-
oner lay traps for the judge, with the
apparent purpose of leading him into
wrong ruling, which may form the
basis of an appeal to a higher court.
The mum Der OF we'll dressed women at

by girls to liOnize the defendant.

Especial Correspondence.l
NEW YORK, July 15.-Nobody seems
to know just how much money James
R. Keene has, but it is agreed by his
friends that he is rich. At the lowest es-
innate, they say, he is worth $2,o0o,
800; at the highest, SO, 900, 900, and
the chances are that the right figure lies
somewhere between the two. Keene's
friends are also agreed upon two other
matters concerning him-frst, he is
likely to keep his present fortune; SEQ
ond, of his divers possessions the speedy
horse Domino is held by him in higher
regard than almost anything else. He is
apt to fret more about that horse than
about the most important deal in stocks,
and when the result of a race in which
Domino is entered is defeat Keene is
cast down into the very depths.
Keene's career has been as interesting
as the most skilfully written romance.
When he was young man, he taught
school for some years on the Pacific
coast. Of course his wages were small
too small indeed to enable the leverage
young man" to much more than live on
them. But it was while he was a school
teacher that Keene saved money enough
to make his first start in life Some of
his pupils were the children of men who
oftentimes made ten times as much in
one day by lucky speculation as the
clear headed, thrifty pedagogue could
in a whole year. With these fathers
Keene became a favorite, and as soon as
he had managed to save up enough to
make a modest venture in the specula-
tive field he made it.
am not not sure as to the nature of
his very first venture, but the first which
attracted general attention had to do
with the stock of the Bonanza mines,

LANES r. KEENE-

thought him daft. But the outcome
showed how sound had been his reason
ing, for Bonanza soon began to decline.
Once started, it went down on a run,
finally reaching the pitiful figure of 25
or Whereabouts. Through the entire
course of the collapse Keene bought and
sold, bought and sold, doubling his
money over and over again, and when
the bottom was reached he had wads and
wads of money. His winnings must
have been a round So, 100000.
Now, many men, including the pres
ent writer and probably most of his
readers, would have been we'll satisfied
to rest right there and enjoy the So, OOO,
900, but it was not so with Keene. He
was not satisfied He thought he had
proved his Judgment and his ability as
a fighter. He could see no reason what
ever why he should not make some more
millions. and he came to New York to
do the trick
Keene is a man of abundant nerve
even now. Then his nerve was like steel
tempered to the hardness of the dia-
mond, for he decided before ever leaving
California not only that he would make
plenty of money in New York, but that
he would make it out of Jay Gould.
When he reached New York, Keene
found his fame ahead of him. People of
all sorts were talking of him as the poor
schoOlmaster who had metamorphosed
himself into millionaire by selling
something he never owned.
It was expected by "the street, that
he would here proceed on a plan sim
liar to that adopted on the slope in
whatever operation he undertook, but
he didn't. At first he took things easy
for him. Then he got up a corner in
wheat with the idea that he could down
Gould in that way. AS the ex-school-
master bought the price went up day
after day. The people watched, and
Keene smiled in the anticipation of the
triumph certain soon to be his, but
Gould said nothing. All the time, how
ever, the great railroad and telegraph
magnate was Saving wood indus
triously and persistently. After awhile
Gould began more open operations.
They were very similar in plan to those
by which Keene had made his millions
out of Bonanza stock. Gould sold wheat
day after day, day after day, and order
ed it sold all over the country. The re-
suit was bad for Keene It broke the
corner and ruined the schoolmaster.
Plenty there were who believed his ruin
was permanent, but Keene was not
among that number. Those who knew
him then say he was not as badly affect
ed by the smash as he is now whenever
something happens to Domino.
It was through the Vanderbilts that
Keene got on his feet again. He had
done something that redounded to their
interest when he first came east, and
they loaned him some money, though
he was able to offer no security. With
this money Keene laid the foundation
of his present fortune, though it was
years before he was able to count him
self a millionaire again.
When he came east, Keene used to
wear a long tailed milk white overcoat,
and in many other ways encouraged the
people to talk about him. Now he is
past that, as he is also past further
plunging in such manner as to risk a
second downfall NJ. L DEXTER

In Spite of the Dull Season
There's Little Shrinkage.
Outlook for Manufacturers and
WOrkingmen is Bright.
CLOSED WORKS OPEN.
The Demand for Textile Fabrics
is Much Better.

NEW YORK, July 27.-R. G. Dun 6
Co. s weekly review of trade says: It
is not the season for the tide of bust
ness to rise, but there is not perceived
scarcely any shrinkage except that
which will come naturally with mid
summer heat. The volume of new
business is small compared with recent
months, but large enough to encour-
age more openings of long closed
works, and more advances in returns
to labor. Important strikes show that
the advance is not enough for some,
but the strikers seem not more threat
ening than a week ago.
Accounts of shrinkage in the yield
of wheat come from both Pacific states
and from the Dakotas. It would be
strange and unnatural July without
such reports, and yet they have weight
enough this year to lead even the most
experienced to reduce somewhat their
estimate of yield, while the price has
advanced three and one-fOurth cents.
Light Western receipts for the week
were not a third of last years, and for
four weeks only 1896, O63 bushels,
against IL, 963, GIG bushels last year,
strengthen adverse reports, because
the price year ago was about 20

only $500, $50, against 1865, 722 last
year. Corn advanced 1 cent with
wheat, but has since lost all of the
gain. Cotton has remained unchanged
at 7 cents, although the latest reports
favor larger estimates of the yield,
circular by Nein going much beyond
other figures.
Textiles have better outlook with
larger demand, both for cotton and
wooden goods; a shade advance in print
