Spectat Diepatch 9 ii2 Zcntnes Conumaovs, O., Sent. 16.—The vicinity of Groveport and the surrounding country stilt continucs In a fever of excitement over what is supposed tu have been the murder of Edwin C. Dyer, a prominent stock dealer. The murder, {such It proves to be, ovcurred near the Grove- port and Circleville roads, about seven iniles southeast of the former place, Friday evening about 8 o'clock. Saturday morning the first evidence of the murder tame to light by a young man named Glick, Being on a neighboring farm, on arrlying at the point naned he discovered evidences of asevere strugele, and, lying upon the ground, a pocketbouk, a hat, anda porttun of o vest. Tho hat, aati felt one, shows evidence uf hav- Ing been broken on tho side. A locket and some othce small articies were also found. They were taken to Groveport, and were ot once identified as belonging to young Dyer. In- yestigation was at once commonced. ‘Tho news that a murder Lad been committed spread lke wildfire, and before noon over 500 people living In that section were ontho ground, earch was immediately commenced to ‘fnd the body of the ‘Inissing man, The river was dracged, and large partics at once went to work scouring the woods, river bank, and fields in the vicinity, but no trace of the body could be found. E Dyer drow from a bank in this city, on Friday afternoon, $1,047, and bad in his possesston about $100 In addition. After leaving the bank he proceeded to Groveport by rail.

Five miles from Groveport he stopped ata farmer's named Long and pald: amount of money, after which ho started for Baum’s farm, about two miles distant. This was the Inst seen or heard of Dyer, aud ho would probably have reached the place where the tragedy occurred. at about 8 o'clock, Tee articles found and the statements in con- nection with the money, and where be wos last secu, furnish very conclusive evidency that Dyer must have been murdered. Your correspondent visited the scene of the tragedy to-day. Numerous theories are al- veoced, some of which arc plausibic, while others are contradictory. It was learned that some of the family of Mr, Glick, residing =about a quarier of a mnlle distant from the scene of the tragedy, heard two or three loud calls.

The latter was met by a poiticman on the road who asked him if he new those musicians. He disclaimed ony knowledge of them. Soon after the five men were accn sitting together by the roadside, Suspicion points strongly fo the man who was travellng alone, as subsequent statements wil show, but, so far as the men having the appear- ance of Italians Is concerned, it Is not so atranza in thelr case, as they were seen later in tho afternoon some distance beyond the point where the murder touk place. “Between 8 and 9 qelock a gentleman onthe road leadingdown the iver was passed ina burried manner bya man ou horseback, who wore a cap, and had his coat closely buttoned up to uis chin, ‘The man ap- Peared to be quite heavy-set, with a dark com- Plexion, — He was spoken to, but dil not reply, About 9 o'clock o solitary horseman came Tushing into the Httle village of Shadevitle, about seven miles from this city, Galloping up to the hotel, he inquired in a hurried manner the dlatance to Columbus, and the laine of the place, The landlord, thinking it perhaps night.
