Mexican Attempts to Kill Big Man In
Settlement.
New York. June 2o.-A special to the
Times from ElPaso, Tex. says:
Word has been received from Chihua-
hua that an attempt has been made to
assassinate A R. Shepherd, who did
so muc hto build up hte city Of Washing
ton during the administration Of Presi-
dent Grant. Shepard, after leaving the
District of Columbia a few years ago,
went to small settlement in the repub-
lie of Mexico, where he has since been
engaged in the minin cuisines.
On Saturday. while Mr.. Shepard was
away quite q distance from his mine at
Batopilas. he was shot at by a Mexican
in ambush. the bullet grazing his head.
Shepard beat hasty retreat in the direc-
Ton of the settlement, the would-be as
sassin following and keeping up q run
ming fire. Luckily, none of the bullets
went true TO the mark, and the intended
victim finally reached the doors Of his
home.
Shepard has great influence among the
Mexicans and is almost a king in the
little town AS soon as the news reached
the settlement of the assault the excite
ment was intense. The neighborhood was
searched for miles around and the rol-
lowing morning the assailant was cap
tured.

Farm Hand Shoots Right and Left

Farm Hand Shoots Right and Left
and Suicides.
Bloomington. H., June 2o.-At Brokaw.
this county, yesterday T. J. Reece, a
farm hand who had returned from a two
years ranching in the west, shot and Sc
riously wounded John Young, a prorni-
nent farmer, and then set a strawstack
afre, shot himself and was cremated.
Reece appeared at the residence Of S.
Rhodes and told Rho0es he meant to kill
him. Rhodes talked him out OF the idea
and Reece left and went to the home Of
Young. He stepped into the house and
without word Of warning opened fire.
Young was shot in the leg and the hip
and other members of his family had a
narrow escape. Then shouting that he
was going to the home Of Frank Kimler
and kill the family Reece fed. He did
not appear at the Kimler home, however,
and no trace Of him could be found IN
til today, when a strawstack in the VI
cinity suddenly burst into flames and
searchers found Recess dead body with
a bullet hole in the head half consumed
in the flames. Reece was 35 years old
and had lived for 13 years in the vicinity
OF Brokaw. It is thought he suddenly
went insane from probably brooding over
a love affair of several years ago which
was connected with the families men
toned.

STORY is FALSE.
There Has Been No Recent Negotia-
tons With Denmark.

Washington, June pa complete de-
nial is obtained at the state department
of the story emanating from q special
correspondent in Copenhagen to the effect
that the United States addressed a note
TO the Danish government recently. reia-
tive to st. Thomas and st. Croix, de-
nanding that the Danish government for
tify the islands If it refuses TO sell them
to the United States. The state depart
ment has had no communication what
ever with the Danish government on the
subject of the Danish West Indies for the
past three months and it never has con-
templated making any such demand as
that reported. The negotiations respect
ing the acquisition Of the islands by the
United States have progressed IanguidIy
but in perfect good humor through Mr..
Swenson. and there is no reason to
qualify the original expectation Of the
state department that they viii be con-
cluded in season TO permit Of the submis-
sion to congress OF an annexation treaty
