Coffkyvili.k, Kan., Aug. .V—John
Vann, u desperado of not a little noto-
riety, was shot and killed yesterday
morninj? at Goose Neck Bend by John
Single ton, # a young boy of 18 years.
The annual celebration of the colored
people has been going on at Goose
Neck this week and several thousand
people from nil over this section were
gathered there.
Vann had been a horse thief and
whiskj* peddler for years and has been
arrested time and again, once by Sin-
gleton's father, and it was this that
caused the murder. Vann had stated
that if Singleton. sr, came on tho
grounds he would kill him. When
Vann and old man SUigleton met yes-
terday morning the quarrel began.
Vann pulled his pistol and struck
Singleton a heavy blow over the head,
whereupon young Singleton shot him.
Four shots were fired, two of which are
claimed to have been fired by Vann.
The whole camp was in an uproar
and the colored people shouted, "Kill
every white man on the grounds.
Don't let any of them get away," and
kindred expressions, but United States
Marshal Heck Uruner arrested Single-
ton and hurried him off the grounds u)
avoid trouble and he was, with his
father and two other men mixed up
with the affair, taken to Fort Smith on
the evening train. i
From every direction the colored men
came in with Winchesters, carbines,
revolvers and all sorts' of artillery and
the white people left by droves as fast
as they could. |
One reason the colored people were |
so incensed was because Vann was the
second of their number killed there. j
this week, the other one being one of
the guards, John MurrelL He was
killed Tuesday night by a Cherokee !
half-breed named Miller. Murrell was
shooting off his revolver and Miller,
out between the forces of Malietoa and
MataafaJuly 7 when the royal forces
started their march on Melola, Mataafa's
camp. They captured and disarmed
men who were afterwards set at liberty.
July 8 the first blood was shed, thirty
men being killed and twenty-eight
wounded.
Malietoa had carefully planned his
attack. One section of the king's army
was sent through the brush with orders
to spread out and connect with another
section below Meloia. a third section,
accompanied by fifteen armed boats
sailing close in shore, went afong the
beach According to the plan Mataafa
was to be hemmed in on all sides. As
the king's men advanced the men on
Mataafa's side recognized friends and
called out cordial greetings and hand
shakes were indulged in and kava ex-
changed.
Then a shot was fired and the fight
began. Firing soon became general.
On the sea beach opposite the cattle
yard were posted a number of the
king's men. Mataafa's men advanced
to the wall and were exposed to a rak-
ing fire. Another detachment of Mali-
otoa's troops took advantage of an
opening in the side of the wall to
pour in repeated and deadly vol-
leys. The Mataafites were forced to
abandon the stockades and as they got
over the wall to the rear they wore
greeted with another attack and were
forced to retreat to the shelter of an-
other stone wall a little distance Into
the bush. Here they made a stand and
Malietoa's men retired. When they at-
tacked the place next morning Mataafa
and his warriors had fled.
i Peace was brought about by the ac-
tion of the British and German war
. ships which sent word to Mataafa that
' if he did not surrender before '2 p. m.
his camp would be shelled. Both had
cleared for action and men stood at the
guns. Forces had gone to the other
side of the island to prevent escape in
! that direction.

Murderer
Awful t'rlny
Trenton, Mo., Aug. 5.—Joseph A.
Howell, the school teacher who killed
his cousin and her four children, was
to arrest him and in the scuffle which | in an inclosure adjolain? the jail and
ensued Murrell was shot. The mar-
shals arrested Miller but he escaped
and they claim that he was allowed to.
There is almost universal satisfaction
over the killing of Vann, as he was a
dangerous man. Gooseneck is 12 miles
southeast of this city.
PREPARING FOR A REDUCTION.
The I>« nver & Bio Grande Gives No-
tiro to the Brotherhood.
Dk.vvkb, Col., Aug. 5.—The Denver A I
Rio Grande has given notice to the
Brotherhoods of Locomotive Engineers
and Firemen that after September 1 |
its agreements with these organizations ,
will be discontinued. These agree- |
ments are made upon the scale of wages
to bo paid. Thirty days' notice by i
either side is required before the con- |
tracts can lie canceled. The purpose ,
of the road in effecting such a cancclla- |
tion is to pave the way for a reduced ;
wage scale. It will offer work to the
engineers and firemen at a 10 per cent
reduction below their present scale.
An informal meesing of engineers
was held last evening at the Union de-
pot. The sentiment expressed there
was that the brootherhoods should
strike before accepting the reduction.
There will be a meeting of the mem-
bers of the two brotherhoods next week
to consider the proposition. Should
they decide to resist the cut a call will
Ik; made upon other railroad organiza-
tions for assistance.
about 200 people who had special
mits from the sheriff were present
Crowds of people were in the city to
see the body and witness as much ot
the execution as possible.
The doomed man was cool through-
out and there were no sensational inci-
dents at the close.
Sheriff Winters had taken tho pre
caution to have the Jail inclosurfi | a-
trolled by ten men in uniform with
rifles and fixed bayonets.
This was the first hanging e ■
known in this county.
THK CHIME.
Tho crime for which Howell was executed
was ono of the most atrocious In the annals of
the state and oa account of the zeal of his at-
torneys has become very conspicuous In
Judicial circles. January W, ISSi, at out 11:30
o'clock at night, the house of Mrs. Hall, near
Brook field, was discovered to be on fire.
Through the burning windows could be seen
the bodies of Mrs Hall and ono of her children
lying on a bed Efforts were made to get
them out but the floor guve way and
everything went into the cellar. After tho
house was burned the bodies were talieu out
and showed that a murder hud been committed,
and by tracks In the snow the mtfrderer was
tracked to Brookfleld and arrested in a hotel
with his clothes wet from tramping through the
snow. The ca e went through the courts with
one reversal and one hung Jury and a bold
effort to alter iho records before the supremo
court
TERRIBLE LAKE DISASTER.
Ten Women and n Boy Drowned by the
Sinking of a Hoat.
Troy, N. Y., Aug. 5.—About 9 o'clock
last night the steam yacht Rachel,
owned by I). W. Sherman, proprietor
of the Pearl Poiat house, Lake George,
was conveying twenty-nine people up
the lake to a dance when just off the
One Hundred Island house landing tho
passengers were thrown forward by a
sudden shock.
In the dark the vessel had run upon
a sunken pier. A few minutes later
the yacht careened to one side and
went down in eighteen feet of water
with all on board. The passengers
battled for life in the darkness, while
deeds of heroism were performed by
the men.
When all In sight had reached the
shore it was learned that eleven per-
sons had found watery graves As
soon as possible an attempt was made
to recover the lxxlies. After the stren-
uous efforts all but two bodies were
brought to the surface. Those who
lost their lives are said to have lived in
Troy, Brooklyn, liobokenand Warrens-
burg.

—failures Heavy.
Nkw York, Aug. 5.—II. G. Dun a Co.'s
weekly review of trude says:
Demoral.r.Ulon In speculative markets has
been followed bv a more healthy loue. In
mouey markets there has come a singular sense
of relief, notwlthstandli.g actual Increase In
present embarrassments almost amounting to
paralysis of exchange between the chief com-
mercial cities, and of many Industrial works,
because oven 14 per cent, premium for currency
fails to secure what is needed for payment of
wages Holies are nevertheless fixed on tho
ships bringing over #ll,00t),00J gold ac ross the
sea and on the extra session of congress which
will begin on Mondav. Several of tho largest
and boldest operators at Chicago have been
crushed under pork barrels, but the instant In-
crease of foreign purohisos convinces tho mar-
kets that the disaster has brought oortain
measures of reliof.
Tho monetary stringency, which at last
orushed speculations In wheat and hog prod-
ucts, had been caused in part by their preven-
tion ot exports and their absorption of euor-
mous capital In carrying unprecedented stocks
ofproducs, which, If sold In time to foreign
consumers, would have brought gold enough to
prevent much evlL Wheat has recovered
about 4c and pork |! or more at Chicago, and
orders for exports have caused a sudden ad-
vance In ocean freights. With the great sur-
plus of wheat brought over from previous
years, tho country will be able to moet all d -
mands, even though the crop proves small
enough to Justtfy a coiHlderablo advance from
previous prices With a great crop of corn al-
most as surely, unusual accumulations of pork
and hog product would be safer on the ocean
than in Cnicago warehouses and more helpful
to the country.
Stocks at the lowest poiut this week aver-
aged little more than $11 per share, but it Is
yet a long way down to tho prices of 1877, aver-
aging at the lowest f'i3 per share, and tho con-
trast between the condition and earnings of
railroads now and then Is greater than the dif-
ference in prices. In anxious efforts to fortify
themselves banks throughout tho country have
locked up a large amount of currency, and tho
depositors who have drawn their accounts are
also keeping out of use many millions. As the
entire circulation of bills of less than |5 each Is
but |7\001,0 0, while tho depositors in savings
banks number nearly 5,0"W,0i).), the with Irawal,
or the mere withholding of accustomed depos-

draws from the market much of th3 smill

Tho demand for these huve been so great that
shipments of sliver have In many cases been
gladly recolved and the difficulty of getting
ourreudy for paying employes caused a pre-
mium for currency in many cases ranging as

The volume of domestic trade, indicated by
railway earnings Is but 0 per cent smaller
than last year. While the falluros for the week
number 4J6 against M0 last year, a groat pro-
portion of them are at the west, and It Is cheer-
ing to note that comparatively few of Impor-
tance occur excopt In connection with speculat-
ive operations.
Failures during tho week number 136 In tho
United States against 160 last year and thirty-
four In Canada against twenty-four last year.
There were throe failures of a million or more,

The Treasury Prepared
Demands.
Washington, Aug. 5.—Treasury offi-
cials state that the treasury is prepared
to supply all the small currency want-
ed. and the lack of such currency in
certain sections of the country is ac-
counted for on the supposition either
that all money is scaree, or that the
banks have failed to procure of the
treasury the small notes needed for
home consumption. At no time in
years has so much small money been
sent to New York, and the lack of
small notes there cannot be accounte I
for here except on the theory that
much of it is being hoarded by those
who receive it, thus withdrawing it
from active circulation.
It is also stated at the treasury de-
partment that there is no likelihood of
the resumption of the issue of gold
certificates until the free gold stands
from 17,000,000 to 110,000,000 above the
reserve. This increase can only be au-
thorized by the secretary of the treas-
ury, who has not yet given any in-
structions in that direction. The free
gold Is now nearly $000,000.
Since August 1 the comptroller of the
currency has ordered currency printed
for Issue, on the security of United
States bonds for national bank circula-
tion, to the amount of $8,032,000, of
which $1,408,000 was ordered yesterday.
The actual amount issued on bonds
since the first of the month has been
93,104,100, of which $711,070 was issued
yesterday. The bonds deposited to se-
cure circulation since August 1 amount
