Dallas, Tex, June 28.—One of the most prominent democrats in Texas, but who declines to permit the use of his name, and who isa clese personal friend of Rear Admir- al Schley, recently wrote Schley to ask if he would permit the use of his name as a eandidate for either President or Vice President on the democratic ticket next year. He to day received a reply in which Schley Says in part: “Even though I were prominent enough to be thought of for the high place you mentien, I could not be persuaded to accept the nomina- tion, if it were tendered, nor could I be induced to serve if I were elected. Iam unable to comprehend how any naval officer, who has no acquaint- Three Chinese torpedo boats, placed on tie river to prevent piracy, were anchored within 500 yards of the scene of the outrage, but made no attempt to assist the mercbant- man. After the robbery the captain of the Wo On reversed her flag at the masthead, but the torpedo-boats steamed by without paying any attention to the signals of distress. Boat captains of the West River held a meeting after the robbery and sent a resolution to Pekin re- cording the robbery. A strange incident happened in Pekin a few days before the steamer left, in which a brave American citi- zen figured. It appears that Dr. Yung Wing, LL. D., a graduate of Yale, was decoyed from Shanghai by direction of Prince Chang and was imprisoned in the temple. It was given out that the reason was his sympathy with the reform move- ment. On the eighth day an Ameri- can disguised as a Chinese attache ef the American Consulate entered the prison, held up the jailers, cut Yung’s bends with a sword and spirited him away. ““BESSIE’’ PARKINSON’S SUCCESS.

Boyd was Springtield’s friend and he resented the death of his partner at Johnson’s hands. He boasted that Johnson, too, should die with his boots on, and Jehnson heard of it, and defied Boyd.

Then he turned in and gave Johnson such a beating that he nearly killed him. Jobnzon’s friends rescued him and sent him home for repairs. He was laid up until yesterday, and every day that he spent indoers increased his hatred for his enemy and his thirst for Boyd's blood. He got out of bed yesterday, armed himself and started out for the avowed purpose of settling Boyd, once fer all. Just in front of the “Two Brotk- ers” saloon, at Tremont and Market | streets, Johnson met Boyd They started, glared at each other ard Jobneen shouted, as he pulled his pistol: “I've got you now!” : He fired, but his shot went wild. Then Boyd pulled his own revolver and taking aim at Johnson, fired. The ball struck Johnson in the ab- demen, and Johnson began to go down. Four more shots from ths Boyd revolver followed so rapidly that they could scarcely be eeunted, jeach cne true, each one lodging, as did the first, in Johnson's abdomen.
