Jacksonville, Fla., Sept 7. Har
mon Murray, the notorious colored out
law who has defied the authorities for
nearly a year and terrorized a -wide sec
tion of country, was killed about day
light lv Hardy Early, a colored lad of
17. Murray called on Early about 4
o'clock and ordered him to go with hitn
to Archer, where he said he was going
to "kill some Crackers" and then leave
Alchua county. Early did not want to
go but Mnrrj took Early to the lattcr's
brother's house and made him produce
double-barreled shotgun. Both bar
rels were loaded with buckshot and
Early put fifteen moro in a barrel. The
two then started toward Archer. Hav
ing to pass through a swamp on the
way Early pretended he did not know
the trail, and asked Murray to lead.
Murray took the lead, and immediately
Early poured the contents of both bar
rels into the back of Murray's head,
killing him instantly. Early then noti
fied the people at Archer, and a crowd
went to the spot, brought tho corpse to
town and afterwards sent it to Gaines
ville. Tho excit?ment there was intense,
as several lynchiugs of Murray's con
federates have occurred.in that vicinity.
Early was the hero of tie hour and was
mounted on a box, from which ho made
a speech describing tho affair. He will
get $1,500 in rewards. Murray had
killed seven men within tho past few
months and was as fearless as he was
Tiloodthiraty.

Yonng Ilcarst's Scheme.
Washington, Sept. 7. W. R. Hearst,
proprietor of the San Francisco Exam

vicinity of Newspaper Row a commodi

$2,000,000. It will be named the Ex-
aminer building, and will be designed
and built with a view to accommodating
press associations and newspaper cor
respondents, with rooms especially
adapted to the business wants, and to
make it the headquarters of the corre
spondents of Washington. The Exam

he is negotiating with a number of lead
ing journals to join the San Francisco
Examiner, the Omaha Bee and St. Paul
Pioneer Press in the prosecution of In
dian depredation claims against tho
government. Tho originator of the
idea of a combination of leading jour
nals to prosecute those claims was the
late Senator Hearst, and Mr. Hearst, in
establishing this gigantic claims bureau,
is carrying out a long cherished scheme
of his father, the California senator,
which found full fruition in the bill
passed by tho last congress transferring
Indian depredationclaims from the in
terior department to the United States

From South America.
Washington, Sept. 7. The consuls
j general of South American republics in
Lor don have inaugurated a movement
for the establishment in that city of a
bureau of information concerning South'
American auairs, similar to tho bureau
of American Republics which was es
lauiisneu in wasmngtonon tno recom
mendation of the international Ameri
can conference, a similar bureau of
which has recently been organized in
Paris. Tho object of this bureau like
those in Paris and Washington, is to
make known tho resources and commer
cial advantages of the Central and
South American republics, and to furn
ish specific information on commercial
subjects when applied for. The gentle
men who havo inaugurated this move
ment, in their announcement say: "The
advantages conferred on trade throueh
chambers of commerce which have been
established in all parts of the world is
universally admitted and there can be
no qncstion that the enormous trade
which during the last fifty years has
arisen between this country and the
states of Central and South America
and Mexico, could be still fnrther de
veloped if their products and require
ments could bo brought more directly
to me notice ot manuiactnrers oy means
of chambers of commerce dedicated es
pecially to trade interests between Great
Britain and those countries." Saven
teen South American states will be rep
resented in the bureau, viz: Argentine,
Bolivia, Brazil, Chili, Colombia, Costa

Vienna, Sept. 7. The Austrian em
peror is to some extent compensated for
the disloyal attitude of the Bohemians
by the growing devotion of the Galician
Poles. The latter are even eager to see
war break ont in order that they may
have a chance to avenge their national
wrongson Russia, which country they
hold chiefly responsibly for the destruc
tion of Poland. At Cracow the people
march in the streets singing the Polish
national hymn and rhymes violently
abusive of Russia, and some even per
sonally directed at the czar. The po
lice make pretenses of interfering at
times, but it is said the Austrian au
thorities are Becretly pleased with tho
manifestations as a counterpart to the
anti-Austrian agitation in Bohemia.
which is attributed chiefly to Russian
influences. All indications are that, in
the event of a Russian invasion of Gali
cia, the Poles will rise as one man tc
battle against their hereditary enemies
The reason for Polish devotion to Aus
tria is that nowhere has Austrian rule
been moro beneficent than in Anstrian
Poland, where it contrasts sharply with
the opposition exercised by the Russian?
on the other side of the border.

rumored on sound authority that the at

many and Austria have given Lord
Salisbury any advice on the snhW.fc.
He has not yet asked their advice, and
possibly may not, unless he has ex
