fkT CRIME IS MURDER.
RESULT OF INVESTIGATION" BE
FORE CORONER ROBINSON.
8ICHAKD HOWARD, ROBERT HOWARD AND
JAMES BICKERSTAFF HELD FOB
THE CRIME—A DEADLY
KNIFE WOUND.
At 8 o’clock this morning the coroner’s
jury having in charge the investigation of
the killing of Mr. T. C. Dawson,met in the
grand jury room at the court house.
The investigation was held with closed
doors, and attorneys on both sides were
excluded.
CAPT. BEARD ON THE STAND.
The first witness introduced was Capt.
J. A. Beard, chief of police.
Upon being sworn, Capt. Beard testified
substantially as follows: I did not see the
first of the troubie. I had just been
warned that trouble was likely to occur. I
was watching Mr. Howard as the horses i have
hind judges’ stand. I looked out and saw
one-armed man "shoot. I think I must
have seen first shot fired. I saw second
shot, if not first. I saw three men who did
shooting standing apart from rest of crowd
just aff Dawson drove inside. I recognized
the three men as the parties who did the
shootin^
E. Mr Patterson was sworn, but his tes
timony developed no new evidence. He
saw Dawson get out of sulky, but did not
see cutting or first shot fired.
TESTIMONY OF DR. GRIGGS.
Dr. R. E. Griggs, county physician, was
next introduced. His testimony in sub
stance was as follows:
I examined the body of Dawson and
found four wounds. Three were gunshot
wounds and the fourth was made by some
sharp edged instrument. I found a light
flesh wound on the lower right leg, not
sufficient to do any damage. I found a
pistol shot wound on right hip, rather on
upper part of bone. Wound was from

WARRANTS ISSUED.
Immediately after the inquest Coroner
Robinson went before Justice Bowles and
swore out warrants for Robert Howard,
I turned and saw Bickerstaff with pistol.
Smoke was in Mayor’s face, and I thought
shot was fired at him. Bickerstaff fired
last shot. I looked at knife when it was
taken from Robert Howard. Thought I
saw blood on it. Thought I saw blood on
Dawson’s face as he passed by running.
When Bickerstaff fired last shot, Dawson
fell and lay on elbow. When Dawson
passed I thought he had shots enough in
him to kill him. After I saw knife in
hands cf Robert Howard he did not get
close enough to Dawson to use it. vv hen
Dawson first ran he said: “Oh; oh, Lord!”
and looked at me. He turned and fired
one shot at Dick Howard, then made an
other turn and fired at Robert Howari, I Richard Howard and James Bickerstaff,

AN EFFORT TO STOP THE PANIC—AN
OTHER SUSPENSION.
Wall Steeet, New York, 11:15 a. m.,
November 12.—The stockholders of the
Jforth American Railroad Company met in
The Mills building today, and the state
ment is authorized that the company has
but few creditors, and that these are all
strong financially and have agreed to see
the company through; and that the assets
of the company are wholly in tact. The
sterling exchange market is very dull and
prices nominal. Bankers show little dis
position to do business, owing to high
, rates for money. The Bank of North
America was credited at the Clearing
House today, and the officials state they
are again in good shape. At 12:30 the
suspension of T. C. Walcott & Co. was an
nounced in the Exchange.
New York, November 12.—The stock
market again opened with tremendous
business, but prices were as a rule 1 to 3
per cent higher than the closing figures
vesterday. Reflecting the general impres
sion that the worst had passed, the buying
was very urgent, and the first tendency of
the prices was t<r advance, resulting in fur
ther gains of i to 1 per cent, in which the
Western Union, Burlington, Union Pacific
and some of the specialties were
conspicuous. Villards, and especially
Northern Pacific, were conspicuously
active and strong on enormous dealings;
common rose If and preferred 2. The
general list, however, soon yielded to the
pressure to sell and the influence of further
sales under the rule of Northern Pacific,
North American, St. Paul, and a few oth
ers, for the brokers who failed yesterday,
the downward movement became more
pronounced toward the close of the hour,
and the market became feverish and weak.
There was a rally at 11 o’clock, and the
market became very active and firm to
strong, but generally below the opening
prices. President F. D. Tappen, of the
Gallatin National Bank, and a member of
the New York Clearing House committee,
said to an Associated Press reporter
at 11 o’clock: “Our committee
is now in session, signing the
certificates for the banks which require
them, but indications are that the issue
will be very small, say probably not more
than 5,0C3,0C3, which when compared with
the issue of 27,003,000 fh 1884 is,
you can see, a mere trifle. There is noth
ing in the situation, so far as it affects the
associated banks, that is at all disturbing
and there is not the slightest reason to an
ticipate any disturbance in the finances of
this centre. Our action of yesterday in
deciding the issue, the clearing house cer
tificates was merely precautionary so that if
the crisis should come we would be prepar
ed for it. We did not anticipate any such
disaster, but believed it to be the part of
wisdom to forestall rather than to have to
meet it. We are entirely satisfied that the
situation will improve.”
The London market today was quieter.
American securities were lower, and the
others were slightly weaker. There are
rumors of failures. In view of the fact
Lthat ondon is regarded as the main factor
of the situation, it may be important to
know that bullion is being shipped from
many financial centres lo that point. Half
million of silver bars go forward today on
the steamship Saale, and cable advices state
that Russia has sent two million francs
gold, and will send two million additional.
Money is tight at per cent per day
and interest. The stock market developed
new strength after 11 o’clock, and while
money was loaning at £ per cent and in
terest prices rose materially, and every
thing traded in reached the highest prices
of the morning. The extreme feverish
ness of the first hour still continued, but
a better tone was noticed all over the list.
Another advance in the latter portion of
the hour sent North American to 20f,
Northern Pacific to 21, and preferred to
62, although these prices were not held
long. Trusts were comparatively quiet,
and sugar went up 2£. At noon the mar
ket was active and strong generally at the
best prices of the morning. The
London market closed steady
or ’ irregular, but slight changes
from yesterday. The Philadelphia market
largely followed the course of the New
York market. There is little excitement
in Philadelphia, but offices there are filled
with people who have not been seen on
the street in a long time, and are looking
for bargains.
New York, November 12.—12:30 p. m.
—The market is fitm to strong, and free
buying movements in progress. The fail
ure of Walcott & Co., w'hich is an old firm
and was generally considered solid,has had
no effect whatever in dealings. During
the entire morning the general tendency
h is beeu toward better prices, and with
the exception of Villard’s stocks, which
were rather feverish, the entire list -shows
the advance from 1 to 6 per cent., latter
Northern Pacific preferred.
1 p. m.—Under the influence of sales un
der the rule, the market has somewhat de
clined from the best prices, lacking sup
port from the London market, is quiet,
with a comparatively steady tone. *»
