Deputy siEemore Assassinated at Ruston

Deputy Sizemore Assassinated ut RustOn.,
RUsToN.-Deputy United States
Marshal John I. Sizemore was assas-
sinated Thursday night about $40
o'clock. The murdered man had just
finished supper at his home and start
ed cutaon his way down town to at
tend to his duties as chief of police, in
which capacity he has also been serv-
ing for some months. He had pro-
ceeded but a short distance when he
heard disturbance in a little cluster
of trees near The street passing his
house. He went towards the place to
see what the disturbance was, which
proved to be trap set for him. When
nearthe edge of the clump of trees he
was fred upon by an assassin with a
shotgun, the entire charge taking eff
feet in his right breast. When num-
Der of citizens, attracted by the noise
of the shooting, arrived on the scene
they found Sizemore lying at the edge
of the street in pool OF y, ID and
gasping for breath. He onlr .rtered
few words, stating that he mad been
murdered aud that he did not know
who his slayer was. He was carried
to his home, where he expired in about
twenty minutes. Everything possible
was done, but no. clew could be OBJ
tanned as to the identity of the assas-
sin. Bloodhounds were telegraphed
for to Shreveport, Vicksburg ard Mon
roe, but none could be obtained. The
blocdhounds of Sheriff Manning of
Bienville parish were obtained, but
nothing could lie done with them that
morning. Sizemore is the officer who
shot and killed Frank Mullins, the
notorious blind tiger Of this place Feb
ruary. Since his acIuittal he citizens
here dreaded his. assassination.
Sizemore leaves wife and five little
children, the oldest about IL years.
Sizemore was summoned in a posse
contains five years ago by United
States Marshal Martin, and went
through experiences that pleased the
marshal so we'll that he offered him a
commission, which he accepted. His
funeral at the Baptist church Friday
was an impressive one. The minis
tiers of all the churches participated in
the ceremony and the audience showed
the bereavement that is felt by the
town.

THE DOMINION SELECTED.
Commodore Davis VIII Defend the
Seawanahaka Cup.

Montreal Aug 12.-The final races 10
decide upon the defender for the Sea-
wanahaka international cup were held
here today on Lake St. Louis. The boats
were the Dominion, sailed by Commodore
Jarvis. of Toronto, and the Spectator,
sailed by Mr.. Hamilton. There was
good. strong breeze blowing and Dug
gan's Dominion outsailed the Spectator.
Duggan, who has about completely recov-
cred, was an interested spectator of the
race.
AS already announced, the sailing COM
mittee of the Seawanahaka Club will pro-
test the Dominion on the ground that
from long established custom, both in
Britain and the States, double-hulled
yachts, by common consent, have not
been allowed to take part in the racing,
and so strong has this custom become
that for over twenty years no double
hulled boat has been allowed to start.
The cross section of the Dominion and
it's shape has caused the protest, and
whether such shape gives double hull is
the question to be determined.
The Challenger, Mr.. Cranes new boat
will carry the United States colors in the
races.
The crew of the challenger for the first
race is expected to be Mr.. Crane, skip
per, and Mr. Andrew Ohlsen, Mr.. Ralph
Bradley and Mr.. George Powell.

DEFENDANTS DEFAULT.
The knights OF Labor Injunction Is
Continued

In the case of District Assembly No. &C.
Knights of Labor, against the general Of
ficers of the Order of Knights OF Labor of
America, to restrain them from revoking
the charter of the local assembly and
from organizing another body in Wash
ington under the same name, the de-
PENDANTS not answering, the injunction
was continued.
In case the defendants, the general Of
ficers of the Order of the knights of La
bor do not answer the complaint before
next rule day, the plaintiffs counsel,
Ralston & Siddons, will move that the
Injunction be made permanent.
The alleged cause of the trouble be-
tween District Assembly No. &C is that in
the absence of the Endorsement of the
general master workman and executive
board of the order. the local assembly
sent out an appeal to the Knights of La
Dor throughout the country asking for
funds for the defense of local members of
the order who are under Indictment for
conspiracy. For this violation of the laws
of the order the general master work.
man revoked the charter of the local dis
trict assembly and ordered another or
ganiZation formed. The members of Dis
trict Assembly No. sc maintain that the
revocation of this charter was Illegal and
not in accordance with the laws of the
order, and applied to the courts to sus-
tain their claims.

whereby the club would be strength

The Brightwood Driving Park managers
have taken the most important step in
the history of the track at Brightwood.
They have placed ii in the National Trot-
ting Association This action has placed
the track on high plane, and given it
a standing among the trotting tracks OF
the country Hereafter all races will be
conducted under the associations rules.
Horses that perform over the track will
be given the records to which they are en-
titled.
This important movement is due TO the
foresight of Bartholomew Mamie, lessee
of the clubhouse ad track, and w. A.
Brown, an enthusiastic and liberal patron
of light harness horse sport. Club MEM
bership tickets have already been issued,
and a large number have been disposed
of.
Last evening the club members met at
the track clubhouse and perfected an or
ganization. John r. Kelly, well and fa-
vorably known among the business men

ASKS AN ACCOUNTING.
Horace $. Cummings Sues G. VI. Rob-
inson Assignee. and Others


Horace S. Cummings yesterday filed
suit in the Supreme Court of the District
against the National Metropolitan Bank
of Washington, 10 restrain it from selling
or otherwise disposing of certain shares
of stock in its possession which, he al
leges, is his property. Charles II. Rob-
inson, John Sidney Webb. Henry Randall
Webb, James w Lockett, Isaac Hin, and
Samuel II. Kaufman are also named as
defendants in the suit.
In his complaint Cummings states that
all the defendants are sued in their own
right, except Charles NJ Robinson, who
is sued as the assignee of the firm of Cor
son & Mccartney. He says that at vari-
Gus times he deposited with John w. Ma
cartney, doing business under the name
of "Corson & Macartney.'' the following
stocks: Washington Loan and Trust Com
pany, 121 shares; West End National
Bank. twenty shares; National Bank of
| Lynn. Mass, twenty-four shares; Nation
al Bank OF Boston, Mass, fourteen
shares; Washington National Bank Of
Boston, Mass, three shares; Eagle Ma
tional Bank OF Boston, Mass. seven
shares; and the Chesapeake and Potomac
! Telephone Company. of this city, fifteen
shares. all of which aggregate in value
upward of 81. 900.
These shares of stock were deposited
he says, with Mccartney by Cummings TO
secure an Indebtedness of S13. .929-S3 Cum
mings further states that without his
knowledge or consent Mccartney hy
po,hecated the 121 shares of Washington
Loan and Trust stock and twenty shares
Of West End National Bank stock with
the National Safe Deposit Savings and
Trust Company, 10 secure his (Macart-
ney's) note for s14 $50 This amount Cum
mings alleges he will have TO pay before
he can regain possession of his property.
That recently. on June %. 1898. Mccartney
hypothecated the other shares of Cum
mings's stock together with some of his
own, TO secure loan OF s6S. coo. II is also
alleged that Charles NJ. Robinson. acting
as assignee of Corson < Mccartney, has
sold certain of the stocks. belonging 10
Mccartney and applied the proceeds TO
payment on the note for s6S, 900, reducing
it 10 $40 6S3.S3.
Cummings further states in his COM
plant that the National Metropolitan
Bank holds a large number of shares of
stock belonging TO the other defendants
named and that John Sidney and Henry
Randall Webb owed Mccartney $37, coo and
James ". Lockett owed him g. 0G0.
Under these circumstances Cummings
asks that accounting be taken under
the direction of the court, to the end that
the amounts due by Charles NJ. Robinson,
as assignee for Carson & Mccartney and
the other parties on account of all the
transactions between the National Metro
politan Bank concerning the note for S6s,-
90, and the hypothecation of the shares
of stock may be ascertained with judicial
certainty; that the bank be restrained
from disposing Of the stock in question
and that the WebbS and Lockett be re-
quested TO pay what is due by them to
Mccartney.
