DECOYED TO DEATH.
Further Concerning the Murder of
Deputies by MoOnshlners.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Aug. 31.-No fur
Their details of Sundays tragedy in Pope
county, in which a party of revenue OFF,
GERS were murdered by gang of desperate
moonshiners has been received here. Gov.
Jones has offered Ii reward of 500 each for
the arrest of the moonshiners implicated
in the murder. This, in addition to the re-
ward offered by the United States govern
nent, will, it is believed, induce detectives
of skill to go to work on the case. Already
posses of local officers are in pursuit and
news from them is anxiously awaited. Dep
uty Sheriff w. p. Moore, of Searcy county,
son-in-law of Captain Taylor one of the
murdered men, has headed posse and is
now on his way to the moonshiners'
stronghold.
1t has developed to-day that the murder
OF the revenue officers Sunday was the re-
suit of deliberately laid plan on the part
of the moOnshinerS to eXterminate all dep
uty marshals attempting to invade their
region. IT is known that the sinners" are
strongly organized and that they are kept
informed as to the movements OF revenue
officers. 1t now develops that the informa-
ton given to the officers by one of the
moOnshiners arrested a week ago was for
the purpose of decoy1ng the officers back
into the mountains in order to slaughter
them. The leader Of the crowd, now in the
penitentiary awaiting examination re-
ceived d letter last Friday from a confed-
crate in Pope county in which the writer
Sunday" The writer undoubtedly referred
TO the slaughter of the revenue officers
which occurred on that day
letter written yesterday at Marshall,
the county seat of Searcy county, gives ad-
ditional details in regard to the tragedy.
The letter states the marshals had been be-
trayed and led into fortified ambuscade by
the desperadoes. where they We're shot

cited and IL is hardly probable the outlaws
will be arrested alive. Marcum is a veteran
moonShiner, siXty-five years of age The
letter also states that the dead body of one
of the Searcy deputies was found near the
scene of the shooting yesterday. Ii proved

A report reached Little Rock this after
noon by telegraph that Sheriff Hodge and d
posse had arrived close upon the bandits
and desperate fight is expected to occut
at any moment. Hodge has telegraphed for
assistance and deputies have been sent to
his aid.

Good Pitching Won the Second.
NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-The Reds fell
down before the Giants in two games this
afternoon. They got four runs in the first
inning of the first game and one more in
the fourth. They held their advantage over
the New Yorks until the fifth, when TWO
hits and two errors Melted the Giants three
runs, tying the score Joyce's men got an
other run in the sixth and with lead OF
one run the game progressed. In the ninth
Ritchey made hit and Miller put the ball
out near the field bleachers, where Herman
muffed it, Ritchey going to third. Beckley
flied out to center and Ritchey scored. In
the New Yorks half of the ninth Van Hal
tren singled, McCreery sacrificed him to
second, Herman flied out and Van Haltren
was on third. Davis then sent a good single
to left and Van Haltren came in with the
winning run. Rhines pitched winning ball,
while Rusie was easy. The second game
was a walk-over for the Giants, who hit
Breitenstein almost at will and the Gin

ALCIDALIA a SURPRISE
WON THE 2.12 TROT AT CHARTER
OAK PARK IN STRAIGHT HEATS.
2:30 Pace Taken by Passing Belle and
the 2:4O Trot for Three-Year-
OIds by American Belle.

HARTFORD, Conn, Aug. 31.-Fvery race
at Charter Oak Park to-day was a battle,
although two of them were won in straight
heats. Even in those races the finishes were
close and the leaders had trouble shaking
the other horses off their heels. Alcidalia
furnished the surprise of the day by win
ming the 2:12 trot in straight heats, with
such horses as Grace Hastings. Fred Kohl,
Queechy and Fred b. in the field. Grace
Hastings was picked out to win the race,
but she was not in the best of moods. In
the third heat, however after starting far
behind the others, she closed UP the gap
and gave the winner a hot chase 70 the
wire. The three-year-olds furnished three
spirited finishes, but there was an impress
sion that American Belle, the winner, had
a few links of speed which she was not
compelled to show. Thorne and Timbrel
set the pace for her and gave her three
lively brushes coming home. Summarizes:

BOSTON, Aug. 31.-The Bostons narrow
ly escaped defeat to-day, as the Chicagos
had the game we'll in hand when bad err
rors and few lucky hits allowed the home
team to tie the score, and after two extra
and exciting innings the game was called
on account of darkness. The magnificent
catching of Kittridge and the batting of
Stahl and Dahlen were the features of the
game. The latter drove in one man ahead
of him on a home run, while Stahl came to
the rescue of the home team by sharp hits.
Callahan also put up a good game for the
visitors at second, but his error was ex-
tremely costly. Attendance, 5000. Score:
