' Bv Telegraph to .e Morning Stat ; Denver, (?ol., August 2. A special from Durango, Col., to-day. -says: At a ball in Blue Mountains, July 24, a terrible tragedy occurred which is sel- . dom equalled in the history of crime. i While the dancing was going merrily, a tough character Tom Roach insisted upon dancing. He was drunk and armed with a knife and six-shooter. He was told the sets were all full and was requested' not to interfere with persons already on the floor, but he declared he would dance, took hold of a gentleman and attempted to remove him from the floor. This was resented and the parties became engaged in a scuffle, when Frank H. Hyde at tempted to end the disturbance. Roach turned on Hyde and viciously stabbed him with a knife, inflicting dangerous wounds in several places. Roach left the room, but continued to act in a dis orderly manner. A cowboy named Billy McCord, belonging to the '-'I. C." outfit, tried to pacify Roach by going out where he was and talking to him. This seemed to enrage him more than ever, and draw ing, his gun, he killed McCord outright. By this time the excitement was be coming intense and as no one was armed people were almost panic stricken. A boy slipped away to a house near and securing a Winchester turned to the school house. He took aim and fired but missed Roach and killed - Mrs. Wal ton, wile of Charles E. Walton, an es timable woman living m the community. : By this time consternation had seized upon alharid terror reigned supreme. -In the excitement Roach leftthc place since which time he has not beeiyseen. The .entire community are searching for him. A CHICAGO FIRE. Dry Goods Store Burned Loss Estima ted at $1,000,000. 8 Telegraph to the Moraine Star. Chicago, August 2.

The Queen of Belgium Severely Hl-A Revolutionary Movement Jin Barcelona Speedily Suppressed. . By Cable to the Morning Star. Barcelona, Aug. 2. Great excite- . ment has been caused in tnis city Dy 1 what was for a time Denevea to oe a revolutionary movement on the part of the Republican party, but which subse quently proved to be a desperate at tempt on the part of certain speculators on the Bourse to bring about a decline of securities dealt in upon the Ex change. For foolhardy daring the scheme has never been equalled by des perate speculators in this or any other country. The troops who garrison the city were in their barracks and the several guaras pawui ling posts, when a band of fifteen men. some ot whom were armeu wnu nua while others carried revolvers in their hands, cautiously approached the build ings and attempted to effect a surprise of the guards, it being their intention to force their way into the barracks. Sen tries were vigilant, however, and soon discovered the approach of the men. Guards ordered the band to halt , and give the countersign. To do the latter was of course impossible arid the men made a rush upon the sentries, trusting that in the confusion which would lol- inw rhev would be able to force their way into the barracks.! As they ran towards the sentries they delivered a volley from theiir weapons and" some of the guards jfell to the ground, having been struck ,by the bul lets of the aggressors. The; other sen tries, however stood -their ground, and answered the volley from the attackers with a fusilade from rifles. I For a short time a regular battle was fo'ught, and a number on both sides were wounded. In the meantime officers stationed at the barracks summoned the troop3 to arms, and in a very short time the at tacking party found themselves sur rounded. Resistance was iiseless, and the whole party were placed under ar rest. They will be tried by court mar tial, and the chances are! all will be shot. Paris, August 3. Sorilla, Spanish Republican, in an interview to-day. de nied that he was in any way implicated in the Barcelona affair. He said that he would do.-nothing without certainty of success. The latest report from Barcelona justifies the belief that the affair was a genuine revolutionary at tempt on the part of Republicans. All persons arrested are federal Repub licans. Later It is now announced: that the Oueen is is recovering, i Her illness is described as a nervous attack and her physicians' declare that shk is now out of danger. BUSINESS FAILURE. Abraham Backer a Prominent Dry Goods Commission Merchant of New York Makes an Assignment. New JYork, August 3. Abraham Backer, dealer in commercial paper at No. 285 Broadway, made an assignment today without preference to Benjamin F. Einstein, of No. 245 j Broadway. Backer was a heavy dealer in commer cial paper and also capitalist of the firm ot A. Backer & Co., dry goods commis sion -merchants at 285 Broadway He also manufactured goods at Glastonbury, Conn., where he has a fine mill. 1 heir goods were principally for the Southern trade. He sold goods which he manufactured there through his own firm of A. Backer & Co. His assignment, it is said, does not affect this firm, although he was the principal partner and capitalist, his son, C. Backer, being the company. ' Backer's principal business was deal ing in commercial paper. His large connections in the South and Southwest enabled him to handle a great deal of commercial paper, either as a broker or purchaser, borne of this paper he en dorsed and had discounted in his banks on which he has a contingent liability, and some ot it he sold outright. He had anitea, it. is said, gradually into this branch of business by buying at hrst lor personal investment and . i . men extending it Dy placing paper lor merchants with whom he had dealings. He is said to have ob tained some of the best paper made, and he handled about $15,000,000 annually. Backer was very popular in financial and mercantile circles: had the conn- aence oi oanKs and bankers in this citv and elsewhere: is director in the citv banks and several Southern banks. He had a number of bank accounts where he got his paper discounted. Backer's assignment, it is said, is principally due to the condition of the money market, which made it very difficult i. for him to a - -1 ... . .. iioai me quality oi commercial paper wnicn ne generally nandled, and also to the decline in certain Southern railroad bonds in which he was a large holder. His trouble, it is said, in; relation to Southern railroad bonds, was the result ot his connection with the Macon Con struction Co. of Macon, Ga., of which he was one ot the directors, and which he is said to have lent much money. His liabilities are said to be about $4,000,- uuu, ot which $2,500,000 is direct and $1,500,000 contingent. The latter is said to be all right and no loss is anticioated Assets, according to one who is familiar with Backer's affairs, include about $1,500,000 of bonds of the Georgia aoutnern x riorida and Macon & Bir mingham Railroads, about $750,000 Ala bama State bonds and a large amount of other, securities, a valuable mill plant at Glastonbury, Conn., and $150,000 to $200,000 worth of real estate in New York city. Backer came to New York from Savannah, Ga. COTTON. The New York Futures Market Yesterday. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, Ausr. 2. The Sun's cot ton circular says: ; I .

Special Star Telegram Whiteville. Aug. 8. Mr. Frank McNeil, Solicitor of this District, re ceived to-day a telegraphic dispatch from Albany, Oregon, informing him of the arrest'of Daniel A. McDougal at that place. McDougal is charged with the murder of his uncle Simeon Conoly, an aged and respected citizen of Robe son county. When arrested McDougal had assumed the name of D. H. Launn. He was captured by one of Pmkerton's detectives. The murder of Mr. Conoly was com mitted in April last, and McDougal was strongly suspected, but disappeared before he could be arrested. The grand jury of Robeson indicted him for the murder, and rewards were offered for his arrest. CHICAGO MARKET REVI EW. Fluctuations . in Prices of Grain and Provisions. Kv Telegraph to the Morning Star. Chicago. August 8. The feeling in the wheat pit was rather bearish at the opening this morning," and the ten dency for the first few minutes was downward. December, which opened at 89c against 89c at the close on Saturday, sold off to 89 c. Then New York and St. Louis came in with heavy buying orders, and a cablegram from fans quoted the weather wet and cold. prices 50 centimes higher and the con dition of the spring wheat crop of France as hopeless. These things turned the tide, and the shorts began rapidly to cover, prices making a quick jump to91Jc. Then it became evident that there would be an increase in the .visible supply and under free selling the market went off to yQc. 1 here was a reaction to 91c, later, on advices from New York that foreign houses were good buyers there. The market was rather nervous during the last hour. After selling off to 90c for. Decem ber there was a quick rally to 91?c, and recession to 91c, but the close was firm at 91 Jc, on buying by prominent local houses. Corn sympathized with wheat in the early trading. Sept. opened at 56Mc against o7Jc at the close on Saturday The market was slow for the first fifteen minutes, selling to 584c, but when wheat started upward corn did likewise and the price of September jumped to os. but weakened a little, then advanced to 58 Wc. There was recession to 58, then another advance this time to" 58 4 cents. The feeling was easier towards the close, however, the shorts having recovered from their fright and Septem ber receded to 57M cents at which it closed. Oats were quiet but rather strong all day in sympathy with higher prices for corn and wheat, though fluctaations in that cereal were less marked than in others. Hog products were firm. Receipts of hogs were d,000 under estimates and prices were five cents higher. The strength in wheat and corn were also strengthening factors. Business was light and prices were steady. The close was near the closing figure of Sat urday. ITALIAN MURDERERS. The Brumfleld Tragedy Beport that Were Killed by the Eight Italians Sheriff's Posse. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, August 3. A Catletts- burg (Ky.) special says: A rumor is cur rent upon the streets this moining that the sheriff's posse, in attempting to cap ture the. Italians who murdered the Brumfield family Friday night, were forced to fire on the Italians, eight of them being instantly killed. London, August 8 The Globe this afternoon publishes dispatches detail ing the murder of Mr. and Mrs. Brum field and their five children in Wayne county, West Virginia, Friday last, by a crowd oi drunken Italian laborers, em ployed on the Norfolk & Western R. R., and in air editorial commenting on the crime says: "This horrible outrage will assuredly have its lull etlect upon the future relations between the American and undesirable immigrants. Swarmss of Italians who cross the Atlantic are by far the most objectionable of all em igrants who go to America, they appear to have lost the only visible merit those of sobriety. Self-defence in some States where protection is exceedinelv elementary, becomes not only a right but a duty, i be murderers in this case will undoubtedly receive their deserts from the people of W. Va., a.-id it will then be seen if Italy demands Federal en- quiry"with a view of procuring compen sation, ii itaiy does so the answer that will be made to the demand will perhaps be shorter and sharper than the one pre viously made by the U. S. government in reply to Italy s demand for compen sation for families of Italians lynched at New Orleans. The country which can not deal efficiently with its murderers must not object to a law that does the work tor it. A HOTEL FIRE. OA of ihe Quests Burned to Death. By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
