After being admitted Trulock insulted a young lady to whom Hillman was soon to have been married, as soon a Hillman resented the insult, Ross advanced and gave him three terrible gashes in the abdomen with a large butcher-knife. Great excitement is manifested over the affair, and telegrams have been sent to all cities and towns within a radius of one hundred miles givinga full description of Eoss and offering a large reward for his arrest. Hundreds have visited the scene of the tragedy to-day, and the funeral will undoubtedly be the largest ever witnessed in this county. Trulock has been arrested, but no clew can be had of Eoss. * ‘Death of Jotham McGeorjje. Bpeeial to the Indianapolis Journal.

The Friends of Craft, the Ashland Murderer, Working for a Reprieve. Ashland, Ky., Oct. 6. —The friends of Ellis Craft are redoubling their exertions to gain Governor Knott’s assent for a respite for tne prisoner until after the trial of Neal, and we learn that they are endeavoring to secure signers to such a petition by deceptive practices. It is reported here that their petition has been signed by ex-Sheriff John Kounts, who had charge of the prisoners during the memorable war on the Ohio river in November last, but. Kounts brands the story as false in every particular. He has not signed such a petition, and cannot be induced to do so. His name, has been used, in order, if possible, to secure other signatures. These facts will be placed before the Governor in a coun-ter-petition that will be signed by all the prominent citizens of this place, as well as many in different parts of the country. Tiie Governor’s reply to the application of the sheriff of Carter county for troops, has encouraged the people of this section to believe that he will not allow himself to be imposed upon by sympathetic stories and absurd theories, but will allow tiie civil law to have full sway, without any dilatory measures, as practiced under the Blackburn regime. Blown Up by Dynamite. New York, Oct. 6. — A Pawling special to the Tribune tells a story of the depredation of cattle thieves and their discovery, and of their revenge upon those who disclosed their names. At half after 8 some person threw a dynamite cartridge through the window of a room occupied by the Beach family. Mrs. Beach and baby were in bed, and John A. Beach and Samuel Graner were in the large room. Graner seized a double-barreled shotgun and started toward the door. Tiie cartridge had fallen upon a table near the window upon which were a tin pan and a tin dinnei pail. The explosion had blown pieces of the pan and pail into Graner’s body, and had destroyed every window on the floor, tore down the greater part of the ceiling and split the floor beams underneath. Mrs. Beacn and infant were knocked down and stunned, while Beach was blown from the main room into a bed-room, and when be recovered consciousness, found himself hanging to a bed-room window. Graner is not expected to live. An Affray wit.li Deplorable Results. St. Louts, Oct. 6.—ln a difficulty yesterday between J. W.

One of tne shots fired by McDaniels, after passing through one of May’s hands, entered the back of Judge Brinkerhoff, a prominent lawyer of Fort Scott, who was standing a few yards away, inflicting a probably mortal wound. May was arrested, bnt his act was clearly in selfdefense. Cootidge Train-Robbery Examination. Dodge City, Kas., Oct. 6.—The examination of Dean, Donnelly and Chambers on the charge of attempting to rob the train at Coolidge, a few nights ago, and killing Engineer Hilton and wounding Fireman Fadle, occurred to-day before Judge Cooke, but no conclusive testimony was elicited to show that either of the parties was concerned in the affair.

Detroit, Oct. 6.— Last evening a young woman was fired at by an unknown man while quietly proceeding borne on the street, within two blocks of one of the most frequented avenues of the city, while approaching each other. When about three rods distant the man exclaimed: “I have been looking for you for some time!" and fired. The shot, fortunately, did not take effect, but the young woman fainted away, and her assailant escaped. As there is no known cause for the occurrence, many believe the shooting tiie work of a crank. Both Combatants Fatally Shot. Austin, Tex., Oct. 7.—A German aiderman, Henry Pfaunckerphon, and a French brick mason named Jette, near neighbors, raked up an old grudge this afternoon in a saloon, and in an encounter outside the alderman drew a self-cocking revolver and fired a shot through Jette’s bowels, the ball passing into the leg of a carpenter named Kelly.

Mrs. Weaver, of Hudson, Mich., had her legs crushed and wi’l probable die. Mr. Harford, of Pittsford, had a leg broken. Tiie wreck took fire, and several cars were destroyed.

Pittsburg, Oct. 6.— This evening the brakes on a street car got out of order as the car reached the top of a steep grade ou Saudusky street, in Allegheny, and it ran through the safety gates at the Fort Wayne railroad crossing, and into a passenger train, The car was wrecked and all tiie passengers, twenty-five in number, more or less injured.

No blame is attached to anybody for the accident. Friday’s Accident on the Lackawanna. Scranton, Pa., Oct 6. —The accident on the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western railroad, on Friday night, near Cresco, was caused by the engineer losing control of the train descending a heavy grade on the Pocono mountain. The train overtook a coal train going in the same direction, piling the cars over each other, wrecking the engine and cars. The road was blocked so that the night line and emigrant train, due at Scranton at midnight, was delayed until 7 this morning. John Dunn, engineer, was scalded to death, and Archibald Lord, fireman, fatally injured. A Chicago Dummy Ditched. Chicago, Oct. 6.— While going rapidly around a curve, near Austin avenue, in the western suburbs, this afternoon, a dummy car, filled with passengers, was derailed and thrown in the ditch. Charles Cook, it is thought is fatally, and eight others more or less seriously wounded, POLITICAL NEWS. Tilden and Hendricks Laying the Wires for Next Year. Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 6.—The Tribune will publish to-morrow a dispatch from an authoritative quarter to the following effect: Despite many assertions said to be made on authority from Greystone, that Tilden wonld, under no circumstances, consent to be a presidential candidate of the Democratic party in 1884, it may be safely set down that a desperate effort will be made to nominate a ticket with the full knowledge and consent of the two gentlemen most directly interested. A short time ago Hendricks made a quiet visit to Tiiden and effected an adjustment of tiie misunderstanding between them since the campaign of 1876, after which he diseiosed the real object of his visitbv trying to induce Tilden to allow his name to go before the national convention. After an extended conversation, in which many objections ad-, vanced by Tiiden were met and satisfactorily answered by Hendricks, Tilden said: "I shouldn’t mind it, only for tiie labor of making another campaign.” To which Hendricks replied, assuring Tilden that the campaign was already made and that lie had only to speak the word to secure his nomination. This seemed to satisfy Tilden. They parted with the fall understanding that the old ticket will be put before the people in 1884. Shortly after Mr. Hendricks’s visit, John Kelly made the journey to Graysione on the same business, presumably on a hint dropped by Hendricks. ICellv assured Tilden he had buried the hatchet, and was anxious to see the old ticket renominated, and would work hard and faithfully to accomplish that end, and also secure their election. It is intimated that Hendricks was actuated by the fact that Tilden is an old man and decidedly feeble, and Hendricks would have much to do with the presidential office, and would probably become President before the end of the term, by reason of Tilden’s death or total disability. Kelly wants Tilden nominated, so as to pay off old political debts, and it would retire Cleveland • and others, for whom he has a strong dislike. Secret Work Against Batter, Boston, Oct. 6. — The Herald will say tomorrow: "A secret meeting of Boston Democrats opposed to Governor Butler was held on Friday evening, and it is said thatamong the number present, represen ting every ward in the city, were many Democrats who voted for Governor Butler last year. Measures were taken to organize an independent Democratic movement in every ward, the support of the organization to be given to Robinson. " At a meeting to be held on Tuesday next, the organization of this new departure will be perfected. The Moodv-Boynton convention at Worcester, on the 17tli inst. will, after all, nominate Governor Butler. The men who will attend will, he says, “know their business," I and the leaders will be badly deceived. FROM OUNALASKA. A Prospecting Party Returns from a Trip to the New Eldorado. San Francisco, Oct. 6. —The United States revenue cutter Thomas Corwin arrived today from Ounalaska, bringing the Scheefflin exploring party, and also news that the schooner Leo, with Lieutehant Ray and party, had arrived at Ounalaska from Point Barrow. Lieutenant Schwatka, who Iras,, been exploring on the Yukeon river, joiffSd the Leo at St Michael’s on her way down. They were to leave Ounalaska for this port Sept. 24, and are expected to arrive here in a few days. The captain of the Leo reported the loss of the whaling bark Cyarie off Point Belcher.

THE FIRE RECORD. A Loss of Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars at Memphis, Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 7. —This afternoon, at 3 o’clock, the large building, Nos. 247 and 249 Main street, occupied by B. Lowenstein & Brother, retail dry goods, was discovered to be on fire, and, although the fire department promptly responded to the alarm, the entire building and contents were totally destroyed. It was only by superhuman efforts that the buildings on both sides of the the one burned were saved. B. Lowenstein Brothers' loss on stock and fixtures is about $156,000, insured for $106,000 in the following companies: Queen, of Liverpool, $10,000; Hamburg, of Bremen, $6,000; on fixtures, Planters, of Memphis; Home, of Memphis; Continental, of New York; London and Lancashire, of London; Home, of New York; Northern Assurance, of London; Manufacturers’, of Boston; Louisville Underwriters’; Sun, of London; Fire Association, of Philadelphia; Howard Insurance Company, of New York; Boyleston, of Boston; Nortli German; Hamburg; London and Provincial; London Commercial; New YorK; .Etna, of Hartford; Scottish Union and Mutual of Edinburg, $5.0U0 each; Vanderbilt, of Memphis, and Arlington of Memphis, $2,500 each. The building had been recently erected for their especial use by Goodiett & Cos., at a cost of $40,000; insured for $24,000, equally divided in the People’s, Pheenix and Bluff City, of Memphis. J. H. Moyston, photographer occupied a portion of the third floor. His loss amounts to $5,000; uninsured. The building No. 251 Main street, adjoining, to the south, occupied by S. Hall, retail clothing, was damaged by water. He carried a stock valued at about $50,000; insured for $22,500 in Hirsch & Gronatter, Carrington Mason, and Marx & Bensdorfo agencies. Loss about 50 per cent. The building was owned by .T. Montedonico, and was damaged about $2,000 Bingham <&Hilliard, photographers, over24s Main street, were damaged to tne extent of $2,500. Towner & Cos., rubber goods, 245 Main street, were slightly damaged. The daily Scimitar office and other small stores oil Jefferson street, also sustained damages aggregating about SI,OOO. The origin of the fire is unknown. Destruction of Several Blocks of Buildings at Dallas, Tex. Galveston, Tex., Oct, 6.—A special to the Western Associated Press from Dallas says: At 11:30 this morning a fire was discovered in the engine-room of the Texas Elevator and Compress Company, an immense building, occupying an entire square in the business part of the city. For fifteen minutes the fiatne9 burned fiercely in the boiler-rootn, when the iron roof fell in. The fire then rapidly spread to all parts of the building. In a portion of the building used as a warehouse were stored 8,000 bales of cotton, and in a very short time the whole tiling was one mass of flames. The large compress opposite the elevator was on fire at least fifty times, but was as often extinguished. At 1 o’clock the flames leaped the walls of the warehouse on the north side, crossed the avenue, and burned an entire block, composed of the electric light manufactory, a livery-stable, wagonyard and grocery store. At Collier street it crossed Lamar and burned three residences and several small business houses.' At 1 o'clock Mayor Cabell telegraphed to Fort Worth for help and in a little over an hour they were here and at work. The fire was got under control about 5 o’clock at Follier street, having burned three and onehalf blocks. The wholesale grocery house of Henry Loeb, which occupied one corner of the elevator block, was, by heroic efforts, saved. The loss is estimated at from $250,000 to $400,000. A iater dispatch says that the damaged cotton and debris of the fire is still burning, and will continue so for a week. It is impossible at present to form anything like a correct estimate ot the losses. Tiie adjustment will probably consume a month’s time. The total amount of insurance, as far as known, is $325,000, the greater part of which is on cotton, so that tiie actual losses cannot be computed until it is known whose cotton was burned, and also the number of bales consumed, which, it is still thought, is about 4,000. Fire In a Vermont Village. St. Johnsbury, Vt, Oct. 6. —The business portion of Passnmpsic village was burned this morning.

Attorney-genera! Sherman is very indignant, and says the Governor’s action is without precedent and in violation of the constitution. The Attorney-general Ims written a sharp letter to the Governor, in which he requests him to withdraw his officers and leave the department of justice and prisoner’s counsel to manage the case. It is hinted that the Governor has reason to believe that the detectives emnloyed by the prosecution are tisng improper means to secure Amero’s conviction. Indications.
