high point, she did what she had often

Excitement In Reno the Same
Evening Officers All on

Says Wednesdays Virginia Enter
prise:
Yesterday afternoon excitement in
this city rose to fever heat when the
report was circulated to the effect that
a couple of the Folsom escaped con-
victs were headed for this city. and
ali sorts of rumors were soon flying
about.
Sheriff Quirk, Deputy Kenny, Chief
Nevin and Officer Muckle at once
started for the Geiger grade The in
formation regarding the supposed con-
victs came from Huffakers, and stated
that one of the men had been identi-
fed as Ray Fahey. The vigilence of the
officers was rewarded shortly after
) O'Clock. when traveller loomed up,
and he was at once placed under ar
rest by Deputy Kenny and Officer
Muckle and brought to the Jail in this
city. The prisoner protested against
being arrested and said he had been
discharged yesterday morning at
Steamboat, where he had been en-
ployed for the past week. He was
under the influence of liquor and
started to cry as he was put in jail.
Nothing was found on his person of
an discriminating nature, and he will
be given a close examination this
morning to see if any of the marks
q nH N ha ri r1op
by the Folsom prison authorities are
in evidence. In stature he resembles
Eldrige, but he is not thought to be
one of the convicts.
Quirk and Chief Nevin left for the
Five-mile House, where they remain
ed until about o'clock. Steve Cam
paria, who owns the roadhouse, said
the man whom the officers arrested
called at his house and asked for
whisky, and then came toward this
city. Another man half an hour after
ward left the main road before he got
to the Five-mile House and kept in
the brush. He acted very suspisiously
and frequently turned around and
looked back, as though he expected
pursuit.
About nine o'clock last night the Of
ficers took into custody a young man
who had arrived in Town over the
preached him he said: Il suppose you
are arresting me for one of those con-
victs. l am disgusted with the
Hoosiers standing around and cycling
me-" He was taken to the jail and
searched, but nothing was found to in
dicate that he was one of the escapes.
AS he was being put in the Jail he
told Chief Nevin that he had been in
jail in Reno and was released yester-
day morning, but a telebnone mes
sage from Sheriff Hayes stated no
such man had been released yesrer-
day He said he had passed buggy
with two men in it while coming up
the grade, and il is likely he is the
man who was thought to be Fahey,
but he does not resemble him.
The officers showed great diligence
after receiving the notice over the
phone, and it is certain that if any
of the escapes come to this city they
will be captured.
Last night it was thought another
convict was discovered on CONNER
oial Row in Reno. and as the man
started to run the officers opened fire.
Thee was great excitement, as num-
pie were on the street and they fell
over each other trying to reach cover.

Crof.. and Yarbrough Surrender.

Sam Croft ana 9. L. Yalbrough,
two white men who shot and killed
Ben Davis, the bad coon at the Kill
gore place, near Plub Bayou, Satur-
day at 4 o'clock p. m, surrendered
themselves to the officers and came
to the city with Attorney James B.
Gray of England, and waived examin-
alton in Esq Stewards court on
the charge of murder and each made
bond for his appearance and will be
tried at the fall term of the circuit
court. These men and five witnesses
state that the killing was done in
self-defense, and no doubt the men
will come clear, as seven men tell
the same story the killing occurred
over the payment of two bottles OF
beer which Davis claims had not been
paid for, and which the men claimed
had been paid for twice.

Officer Mason Phlpot stated today
that the trip to ElDorado was a long,
tiresome one. The special train ran
from here to Camden and there took
the Iron Mountain to Griffin, at
which place they took log train
for ten miles, stave wagon for three
miles and walked two miles to the
scene of the assassination of w. H.
Lee Over one hundred people were
spent the day tramping through the
spot where the man was hid when
he fired the fatal shot, and for miles
around, but quite a distance away
the track of man was found in
cornfield. The tracks showed the
man to have run in both directions
with reference to the spot where the
killing occurred, The dogs took the
trail and followed rapidly, going
through the corn into a woodland,
then through cotton field to the
home of young man named Harold,
who was friend of the Parnells.
Harold stated that he heard the shot
and screaming and ran over to the
house and hurried back, and that the
dogs were on his trail made after
the killing. The greater part of Mon
day night was spent in the woods on
mules and horses by the officers in
an effort to find the trail of the as
sassin, and it was rough trip. The
dogs worked fine when turned loose
but the chances of striking the right
scent were all against them.

.Trisco-Rock Island Policy.

a { is said that the Frisco Rock Island
9olicy when the ST. Louis, Memphis
Ind New Orleans line is completed
|Eill be to divert a large portion of the
mississippi valley export trade from
4he Atlantic ports to the gulf ports,
galveston and New Orleans. says the
6t. Louis Globe-Democrat. The Rock
sland reaches Galveston through its
purchase of one-half interest in
he Houston and Texas Central, while
he Frisco will soon reach New Or
eans. AS already announced in the
obeDemocrat. the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois and the ST. Louis,
Memphis and South eastern, and the
View Orleans line, will form a new
Through line from Chicago to the gulf,
md a water grade line from St.
louis to New Orleans. 1t will be a
Wrong competitor Of the Illinois Cen
8ral and the Louisville and Nashville,
And likewise the Gould new water
Grade line. It is the intention of
he YOakum management to make
New Orleans an important terminal
IND export point, and the Frisco.
Rock Island will throw large vol
Rme of business to the gulf instead
Pf turning it over to eastern lines for
transportation to the Atlantic sea-
BOARD. The business Of the Choctaw
.ines for export will likewise be turn
fd to the new gulf route. Much OF
fhe export trade which has been
fouted via New York will in the fu-
fure pass through the gulf ports. The
F'risco-Rock Island ,traversing the
hnest agricultural sections of the
Fest and southwest, will be able to
Control a large portion of the output,
Fhe Gould system and the Rock Is
|andFrisco system are seeking to
accomplish a great deal for the Texas
Ind Louisiana ports, and much of the
business in future will be diverted
From the Atlantic ports, especially in
grain and cotton.
