SHOOTING WAS ACCI-
DENTAL.
That is the Latest Opinion Reach.
ed in the East Barre Affair.

An investigation was made yesterday
afternoon in East Barre shooting affair,
and from what could be learned the
shooting was in all probability done ac-
cidentally. 1t appears that only two of
the number have skipped town and not
three as announced yesterday. Those
who were with Guilo were Charles Lot
ii and Victor Doggio.
From what could be learned ycster-
day afternoon, Guilo, Lott and Dog
glo went into the woods Thursday even-
ng. Guilo was atlircd in women's
clothes and the other two were to take
the part of policemen. The policemen
were in ambush and Guilo was just
across the way from them.
1t appears that they made arrange
ments with John Padreno to meet them
in the woods. Padreno is said to be Il
little foolish and they had it all planned
TO play a trick on him. AS Padreno APP
preached the. place where they were
ambushed, Lotli and Doggio began fir
ing shots from their rcvolvers into the
air to scare Padreno, and it supposed
one of the shots went astray.
GA State Attorney Howland's return
to Montpelier, warrants were made out
for Lott and Doggio. 1t is not known
where they are gone. The warrants
have been placed in the hands of Con-
stable lutchins.
CONDITION OF GUILO.
DR. Macarthur, Guilo's attending ply
>ician, reports that he is slightly inn
proved this morning so that he could
swallow and eat little. His right side
is parallzed So that he cannot move.
He is still partially unconscious. DR..
Reid and DR.. McArthur probcl for the
bullet yesterday afternoon but were
unable to find ii. There was large
hole in he brain where the bullet
pierced it. There seems TO be but little
chance for his recovery.

DRY GOODS.

New York, June 9.-The trading in
dry goods continues fair There have
been gains pretty steadily in nearly all
strictly seasonable lines, owing to the
continuance of RUNNER weather. Sta
pie lines of cotton goods show general
~ poor results and prospects which are
still prcblematical. The contracts for
government goods continue TO engross
the attention of sellers. In staple cot
tons there has been some trading which
continues from day to day. 1t is not
free enough though to induce enthus-
iasm among sellers. Print goods are
still firm though prospects are not so
bright as when general curtailment
was in progress. The quotation on
extras is still &c. Prints are again
quiet in nearly all grades.

Stocks-To-day's stock market was
almost a repetition of yesterdays ex-
cept that the marked weakness of Sugar
had rather less effect on the general
market than was the case yesterday.
This stock began to drop from the open
ing and fell away by spurts until the
recovery in the final hour. Apparently
some support was forthcoming at each
successive point downward or the sell
ing pressure was temporarily relaxed
These occasional rallies were not of
large proportions and the stock sue
cumbed readily TO renewed raids upon
it. The extreme decline was over four
points. Brooklyn Transit was the
most conspicuous stock for strength
A very large and urgent demand devel-
oped for ii in the latter part of the day,

from Washington Of the action Of the


conferees on the revenue bill
The railroad lict was comparatively
neglected all day, the market being
dlstinctively one of specialties. There
was drive at the grangers in the late
dealings which carried Burlington
down nearly point below last nights
level, but a full recovery Was effected
before the close. Some of the railroads
failed to recover fully and the majority
show small net losses. For the most
part there was a disposition to let the
railroad list alone on account of the
unsettling weakness in Sugar. The
strength in Brooklyn Transit was due
to the large increase in earnings shown
with the advent of pleasant weather.
The local gas securities were all
strong, beth on the exchange and in
the outside market, on renewal talk or
a consolidation of all existing compa-
MES. But the strength was not fully
held. The closing was active and
strong at full recoveries in some places.
Railroad bonds were active and the
dealings were well distributed. Prices
were better held than stocks, though
there was a yielding in the early after
neon on realizing in the speculative
lines with a subsequent rally. Total
sales $3,025,O0O.
U. S. new As coupon declined n and
the old As registered advanced Is in

The total sales of stocks to-day were
