While it is probable that a second call for $10,000,- 000 in bonds may be maae next month, such action will depend entirely upon the condi- tion of the treasury at the time.

NEBRASKA Cr1y, Neb., August 15, 2 p. m. —[Special Telegram to the Brx]—Last night about 11 o'clock, occurred a tragedy which, without doubt, will cost one man his life ,and another to ascend the gallows if caught. At adance given at the residence of William Smith, corner of Sixteenth and Otoe streets, two men by the names of Lon Adams and Alex M- Coffey were in attendance, Everything weni on smoothly until the hour named, when Adams stepped outside the door, fol- lowed quickly by McCoffey. Hot words en- sued, when the latter pulleda revolver, and pointing it at Adams with the exclamation : “Pll dry you up, you — —," tried to pull the trigger, when it was wrested from his hands by a bystander. But quickly re- leasing himself he fired the shot froma 38 calibre pistol. penetrating the ab- domen of Adams an inch or more above the naval. The wounded man sank to the ground, while his would-be murderer, with an uncarthly yell and brandishing his revol- ver, scattered the now collected crowd, and mounting his horse came down Main street on a full canter, shooting his revolver, and turning down Ninth street madé his way west. Up to this hour (2 a. m.) no report has been {n-:u:l, though the officers assisted by numerous of our ciiizens, are in hot pursuit, The wounded man isa son of Edward' Adams, 8 prominent for- mer of this county, while MecCoffey the reputation ~ of @ hard and bad man, employing his time in loating around saloons. From what the Bre man can learn, the house where the shooting took place bears no enviable reputation. and it is said whisky flowed freely there last night, It is said the shooting was not the fruit of any sudden impulse, but an old grudge has been existing between these parties, all on sccount of some girl who gained their af- fections. This is not the first time they had clashed, but not in so serlous a mauner.

Mr. Lurd, who has had occasion in the course of his profession to make ex- laustive seareh of the authorities on the sub- ject of exira territorial jurlsdiction, was strongly of the opinion that Cut- ting's case came within the rules of international law as a continuing offense, and ho took pains to urge this view upon several prominent members of the foreign affairs committee, when it was too late, how- ever, to change the attitude of the govern- ment. There has been ample time since for Minjster Remers or som bler friend of the Mexican government, to convey this state- ment to Mexico City. Itis regarded as sin- gular that only at this la day is there ound being held by the court, and it Ked upon s altogetfier improbable that an obseure Mexiean judee in a small frontier town should manifest such a close acquaint- o with the prineiples of interational as is tmplied in his official publication. he decision, it is believed, has been made to order, and after the faet, afid to 6t the exi- es of the cas uing thought ot Mexican Points of Law. 11y oF MEXICO, August 14.—The minis- ter of forcign relations, Senor Mariscal, has addressed a communication under date of the 1200 instant to Minlster Romero at Washing- ton, giving a review of all the legal points in the Cutting controversy, ‘The communica- tion draws attention to the Inexactitude of some of Secretary Bayard's statements, due no doubt it says, to the unreliable information given him by interested and excited persons, “The prosecution of Cutting did not originate with the judge, as stated by Mr. Bayard, but was the result of the offended pariy’s com- plaint made in duc form.
