A SLAYER OF MANY MEN.
THE STORY OF A GAMBLER THAT
OUTDOES BORDER ROMANCE.
Forced to Flee from Atlanta Years Ago
on Account of the Debtor's Law—A
Fight to the Death With Pistols in a
Bleeping Room in Memphis Many
Othor Thrilling Encounters.
Washington, Aug. “I notice,” said
a gentleman who formerly lived in Tennes
see. “that the dispatches front Fort Smith,
Ark., state that a celebrate 1 gambler named
IV >ran had been recently wounded in a row
there, and that his rccovorv was doubtful
This man Dornu has a history. His full
name is Stephen Ah under Dona. He was
born in Kentucky, and was about CO years
of age when the war broke out. lie served
os a private in Morgan’s command early in
the war. and afterwards commanded a com
pany of cavalry. He was an ideal cavalry
man. After the war ho went into business
in Atlanta. Go., where he remained for a
few years, and at last, through the fault of
his partner, ho failed. His creditors had
him arrested under the Georgia debtor's
law, and the Sheriff started to take him to
jail. On the way to prison they stopped in
a drug store and went into n back room tor
soda water. Doran locked the door, drew
a six-shooter from his baek pocket and
forced bis captors to throw up their hands.
He then took a pair of handcuffs from them
ami fastened them together, walked out and
left them there. From Atlanta he proceeded
to Memphis, Tenn., wliere be fell among
bad associates and into bad habits. Two
Georgia officers went to Memphis and at
tempted to get a requisition for bint front
the Governor of Tennessee. Failing in this
they started about concocting a scheme to
kidnap him. Ho heard of it nnd at once
consulted a lawyer, the Hon. Casey A oung,
who advised hint that the officers had no
authority to take him back. He then not i
fied them that if they ntndo any attempt to
capture him he would kill both,
aud advised them to leave town. They
left. Subsequently he got into a
difficulty with Col. Francis E. Whitfield, a
wealthy’resident of Memphis, about a trilling
matter, the result of which was that Doran
put a card in the Memphis Avalanche de
nouncing Col. Whitfield and his son, Capt,
Edwin Whitfield, a highly respected and
courageous young man. The following
morning young W bitfield, accompanied by
a friend, went to Doran's room and knocked
at the door. Doran was still in bed, and.
suppl ing it to lie a servant, arose and
opened the door. On discovering Whitfield
and his friend he comprehended the situa
tion at once and opened the door wide
enough to admit Whitfield and instantly
dosed it before he could lie followed by his
friend. Whitfield had a pistol in his hand
and Doran sprang for his, which was under
his pillow.
A FATAL DUEL.
“Seven or eight shots were fired in rapid
succession, when the door was burst open
by the police Whitfield was found dead.sliot
through .the heart and hit in two or three
other places. Doran was unharmed. Whit
field bad large and influential family con
nections and stood liigh in public estima
tion while Doran was a stranger and his as
sociations were such as to give him little
social standing or influence. There was
great excitement and talk of lynching Do
ran, but he met the danger coolly: giving
notiue that if the Sheriff would furnish him
■with arms he would undertake to repulse
any assault that might lie made on the jail.
He remained in prison without an effort to |
get bail for some two or three
weeks. When ho went promptly to trial
before the criminal court at Memphis, and
was defended by the Hon. Casey Young
and George Gantt, and was prosecuted with
great vigor by Edwin M. Yerger and J. F.
Bale, then two of the most distinguished
criminal lawyers in Tennessee. After an
exciting trial of twenty-seven (lavs, inter
spersed with many dramatic incidents, the
jury rendered a verdict of acquittal with
out leaving their seats, the plea of self
defense relied upon having been fully made
out. As Dorati left the court room after
his acquittal and was walking down the
street beside his counsel, Casey Young,
Ray ner Whitfield, a younger
brother of Edwin, took [Hist in a drug store
across the street and leveled a double
barrel shotgun upon him but was prevented
from tiring it for the moifimt by reason of
Mr. Young being between him and Doran.
Before lie could get an unobstructed shot n
police officer had seized his gun. Doran,
uudisturlied by this, continued down the
street with Mr. Young until ho had reached
the steps leading to Young's office, where
he encountered Col. Eugene Whitfield,
another brother of Edwin, who, the moment
he saw Doran coming, drew a pistol. Be
fore he could present it Doran had
a Colt’s revolver leveled directly
in his face. Mr. Young again
stepped betweoen the contestants and direct
on I Varan to go on into his office. After
these incidents Doran’s counsel advised him
to leave the city at once, as it he remained
he would either be killed by Whitfield’s
brothers or Is* compelled to kill them. This
be refused to do, declaring his purpose to
remain, and if forced to do it, to fight the
Whitfield family, either singly or
Finally, however, he was pre
vailed upon to leave and some months later
he went to Texas.
| TWO MORE VICTIMS.
“ckxjn after his arrival there lie became
involved in another tragic affair. Two
policqtnen entered his room and attempted
to anvst a sick friend who was stopping
with Him. Itorun, finding they hud no war
rant, ordered them to leave tiie room. A
fight ensued at close quarters with six
shooters, at the eud of which the two police
men were dead, while Doran was again tin
touched. For this he was arrested and re
mained in jail for nearly a year, but utxin
trial was again acquitted on the ground of
self-defense. Some months after this he !*■-
came involved in a desperate street fight in
ShrevejKirt, I si. with a noted gambler and
desperado of that locality. In this encoun
ter I him n shot his antagonist through the
bead, killing him instantly, while as usual
three shots fin'll by the other failed to touch
him. He was again tried and acquitted.
‘•Subsequent to this ho made his appear
ants- at Malvern Ark., a town situated on
the Iron Mountain Railroad. Here, it was
said, he was the lender of two or throe
gamblers and adventurers, who were plying
their vocation to the injury of the town.
Tlicy were accordingly, in Arkansas style,
notified to lea ve. This Doran refused to do,
and defied the legal authorities of the town
as weli ns the citizens. Finally a mol, gath
ered to expel him and his friends, by force,
if necessary. But Doran, arming himself
with a double-barrelled shotgun and n lu aeo
of six sho-oters, defiisl his assailant:!. Find
ing they were unable to cope with him. the
authorities of Malvern requested Governor
Garland to send a military force to their as
sirtance, nnd it was not until a company cf
State troops had left Little Rock for tho
•cone of action that Doran took his depot'-
ture
AT THE HOT SI’RIXOS OF ARKANSAS.
“About two jours ago he came to Hot
Springs, and shortly after became involved
in a feud with Frank Flynn, a not-d gambler
of that place, growing out of this singular
•tut-* of facts: Flynn was a professional
gambler, lint among the most respectable of
nis class. He was a man of known eonratve
and determination, and great ly admired by
his friends. He had accumulated a con
siderable amount of properly and was
among the most spirited and •nterprisjug
citizens of Hot Springs. He served more
than one term in the City Council. He was
a man, liowpor, of imperious temper and
domineering will, nnd had for a long time
monopolized tho gambbiig operations of ftiio
town, cither undor his own manag ament or
U iougii friemis. Finally he became lUsaat
isfhsl wtill one Jim l<nne, the kis'per nnd
manager of one of the many gambling
houses of the town. He notified Lane that
he must quit business Line, laillng loortm
oly with Uiu dauutiKl, Flynn walked uti to
his house one day and threw all the gam
bling apparatus into the street, kicked Lano
out after them and informed him that he
should never open his gambling house again
Ijme, being himself afraid of Flynn, sought
out Doran, who was then in New Orleans,
and took him into partnership, with the
understanding that Doran should go to Hot
Springs and reopen business. This Doran at
ouog did, whereupon Flynn notified him that
he must close up or light it out with him the
first time they met. Doran accepted the
latter alternative, and upon meeting Flynn
upon the street at onoeojx'ned fire on him,
which Flynn promptly returned. Both of
them were men of steady nerve and unerr
ing shots, lint after tiring some fifteen times
altogether, Flynn took refuge in a burlier
shop, and to the surprise of everyliody
neither one of them seemed to have been hit.
liut it afterwards apjieare.l that Flynn had
to (in' with his left hand, owing to a recent
injury to his light. His aim was therefore
not so eertain as usual. Doran insisted that
he had hit Flynn with more than one of his
si tots. that he had seen balls strike
his clot lies and he wus bewildered that Flynn
did not fall. Later it wus learned that Do
ran's aim was true, and that three of his
shots did strike Flynn, but he was encased
in steel armor, and the bails did not pene
trate, though he suffered greatly for a num
ber of ilays from the concussion. Both Do
ran and Flynn had a number of followers,
and open war was at once declared between
the factions. Flynn was confined to Ids
room for sonic days, after his encounter
with Doran. But as soon as he recovered
he gather.*! around him some ten or twelve
followers, among them two of his brothers,
and made ready for active hostilities. Do
ran called together his friends and held
them in readiness for tho conflict which he
know was inevitable.
A LIVELY STREET FIGHT.
“Each party kept under cover for some
days, seeking by stealth, or strategy, some
advantage. Finally Doran was informed
that Flynn and his party wore atsv.it to
leave oiie of their places of resort, in car
riages, to roach the home of Flvnn in the
southern part of the town. So when the
four carriages containing Flynn anil ids
friends had reached the centre of the town,
Doran and his followers sallied out from an
adjoining house arid opened lire on them
w’ith Winchester rifles. The carriages
were riddled with bullets, the driver of one
was killod and another wounded. The
moment the firing began, Flynn, followed by
his two brothers and the remainder of Ins
escort, sprang from the carriages and liegan
to return the fire. The fnsilade lasted some
five or ten minutes. Tne result was that
three or four of Flynn's followers, including
the carriage driver and one of his brothers,
were killed and Flynn himself was wounded.
This latter created great indignation among
the people of the town of Hot Springs, and
they finally organized in sufficient force to
drive all the parties from tho place. Flynn
went to Chicago, where he still resides, and
Derail went to Fort Smith nml was after
wards employed by the United States Mur
shal in that district to assist in arrest
ing n number of desperate characters in the
Indian Territory. This duty, it is said, he
iierfortned with his usual vigor and nerve,
killing two or three of tho desperadoes and
arrestiiig the remainder, and turning them
over to the civil authorities of Fort Smith.
Then came iiis last, difficulty with the
gam blur Fngg, in which, it appears, the
utter accomplished by stealth ami
cowardice what so many brave men had
failed m before. That is the wounding,
(icrhaps mortally, of Doran. It seems that
the parties had a quarrel in Fagg’s
gambling house, and the latter, per
haps not liking the undertaking of
attacking Doran while he was looking at
him, waited until he had left the house and
was standing on tho street. Fngg ap
proached from behind and fired nt his head.
But Doran, turning at tho moment, the shot
took effect in his face, and he at once fell.
Even then his native courage did not fail
him in this emergency. He drew his pistol
and continued firing at Fagg until the latter
had fled out of range.
Both Doran and Frank Flynn, his most
noted antagonist, possess many commend
able traits of character. Both are said to
lie honest and upright outside their calling,
sincere in their friendship, of generous
nature, and neither was ever accused of
fear.

CU.MMINTtS-HALL LETTER.
SOME FACTS ABOUT STENOGRA
PHERS AND TYPEWRITER
Lawyers Who Are Rapid Talkers—
Some of the Notable Characters
Who Have Lately Arrived in Gotham
—Queer Baron'Selliere—Points In the
Career of E. G. Gilmore.
New York, Aug 6. —There are more than
500 stenographers in New York and the
number is yearly increasing. Most of them
find employment as private secretaries in
offices at salaries ranging from sl2 to SSO a
week, or ns reporters in tho numerous re
ferees’ courts at from 10 to 25c. per 100
words or folios. Occasionally an expert is
hired at a stated salary by some litigant who
doe.; not care to depend upon the court
stenographer for copies. Jacob Sharp em
ployed during his long triul of nearly forty
days two stenographers at $5 an hour. The
shorthand men employed in the great ease
followed the comjiarat ively deliberate speak
ers easily until Col. Fellows mil le his sum
ming up speech for tho prosecution. He is
a rapid talker and it taxed than to the ut
most to follow him. Then came the address
of Ilourke Cockran in behalf of a permanent
stay for Sharp. He is one of the most rapid
speakers at tho bar, and when he had
wanned to his work, ho averaged 200 words
a minute. There are probably not five short
hand men in New York who could have fol
lowed him, and two of them were nt the
trial. During a pause fn the orator’s ad
dress Mr. Sharp's stenographer, who was
nearly overcome with fatigue and the heat,
created considerable merriment in court by
asking Mr. Cockran plaintively how much
longer ho proposed to speak. Tho steno
graphic report of this great trial has just
been written out. It makes a volume of
4,500 pages, 13,500 folios, or 1 ,'450,000 words.
A stenographer in New York courts gets a
stated salary of 82,500 a year, and he is al
lowed to charge for extra copies of his re
port*. This revenue swells his income to
about $5,000 a year, but Vie earns it. The
shorthand writer who reported the trial of
Alderman McQuado was so prostrated with
fatigue at the end of tho case that ho has not
Keen able to work since.
In a great trial the record of a day's pro
ceedings must lie written out by the opening
of court the next day. As soon ns court
adjourns the stenographer hastens to his
office with his notes. It would In' utterly
impossible to transcribe them all during the
night, but he dictates part of them to an
other stenographer, who writes them down
in shorthand und then dictates them to a
rapid typewriter. The court stenographer
dictates the last portion of his report to an
other typewriter, and the weary monotone
of the stenographer’s voice and tho sharp
click of the typewriting machine is heard
until 1 or 2 o’clock in the morning, when the
stenographer goos home to get a little rest
to fortify him for the next day. Men can
stand thirty-live days of this work, as they
did in the (Sharp trial, but it wears them out
in the end.
Among the lawyers at the New York bar
who are the terror of the shorthand men nre
Ira Shafer anil John E. Burrill, but even
they have never equaled the record of Judge
Van Brant, Presiding Judge of the Supreme
Court. The court stenographer timed his
Honor one day while he was charging a jury.
11" spoke only seven minutes, but it was at
tho rate of 207 words a minute. In ordinary
conversation the average individual utters
about 100 words a minute.
Some expert stenographers are slow in
reading their notes, and such are of little use
in reporting a court-martial, for as soon as
each question is put the shorthand reporter
of the trial must read it from his notes be
fore the witness answers.
It is not strange that occasionally a mis
take on the part of a stenographer should
occur. In 1800 the fate of a man convicted
in New York of murder hung upon the ac
curacy of the stenographer’s report. A
question as to the correctness of the report
was raised and tiie short hand writer refer
ring to his notes found that he had, in dic
tating to the copyist, omitted the record of
an exception taken by the defense to a ques
tion by the prosecution. The record was
the mere scratch of a lien, but it proved of
immense consequence in the subsequent pro
ceedings.
The limited amount of shorthand work on
the newspapers of New York is usually done
by outside men hired for special occasions,
borne of them are veterans, hut unlike the
average old-timer, they do not talk about
the good old days, for formerly $5
a column was considered a good price for
their work, while now they will not under
take an assignment for less then 25c. per
folio.
Closely associated with the stenographers
in their work is a large army of typewriters,
most of them ladies. They have their offices,
make good incomes and live well. They
have a uniform scale of sc. per folio for one
typewritten copy, Sc. for two and 10 for
three copies. Some of them average seventy
five words a minute, or thirty-five folios per
hour. In a recent contest one of them
wrote 3!t7 long words in four minutes and
thirty seconds, and another in four minutes
and forty-one seconds. They must fre
quently write far into the night to prepare
copies needed the following any. and their
work, like thnt of the stenographer, is very
tedious. From three to five years' practice
is required to attain tiie proficiency of an
expert, hut when they have reached thnt
point they esn, uudor favorable circum
stances make $1,500 to $2,500 a year.

This week’s steamers have brought in h
l>evy of Siamese royalties, Baron Sell.ere
and E. O. Gilmore. For placidity of de
meanor, general gentleness and innate no
bilitv of soul. Gilmore rather
heads the list, particularly ns to

frayed, but it is there. Gilmore's i -turii tills

lie is one of the llgltres of tile town, 'mid us

of him lor ninny years. Young Gilmoro—
then a lad of t *ndcr years—was starting out
for New York from the quiet village of
Munson. Mass. His mother look him aside

"K Iwnrd. lie very enreful that thoso bad,
wicked New York men don’t steal every

“Don’t be alarmed, mother," said the boy
with the air of touching and complete
abnegation which has characterized him
ever since. “I’ll worry along: liut you might
keep your eye on the papers and wx* what
liapp ms to the pcx*kota of tile bad and wicked
men."
He removed a doorkeeper from his theatre
just. Is'fore ho sailed. Tile man had been
there thirty-one.years
“He was a good doorkeeper." Gilmore
said in n reminiscent way one night, “but
he had one defect in nil otherwis Unwinds
character he had an invincible repugnance
to allowing any one to go into the i fr atre.
It r mg liis heart every time a man went

something quite thp reverse.
Baron Selliere is indeed eccentric. If lie
remains much longer outside of an asylum
for the insane it will lie on account, or his

He bad less manners on one occasion. I
was at the Hotel Brunswick and had just
come down stairs with my stenographer. I
chanced to think of a business letter just as
the man was going away, and I detained
him a moment to dictate it. We were stand
ing in a deserted corner of the reading room
and I was talking in low voice when a chair
was overturned, there was a wild whirl,
and the Baron—-with whom I had no per
sonal acquaintance—rushed up and asked
excitedly:
" W hat are vou doing ?”
“Dictating."
“No!"
“Yes.”
“I want to dictate."
"Well,” I said amiably, "fire ahead, I’ve
no objection.”
“But to him,” jabbing frantically at the
stenographer.
As I had aiiout finished I loaned the man
to him and he dictated an acceptance of
an invitation to dinner with tho emphasis
and roar of a crack tragedian. Then he
said:
“Whom do I pay.'”
“No one.”
lie bowed, was profuse in his thanks, nnd
withdrew with the wearied air of o man
who had performed a great mental feat in
the very nick of time. The stenographer
forgot to write the note out until three days
had passed, but the Baron was not in the
least disturbed by the delay, though tho
diuner had meanwhile been eaten.
Blakely Hall.
A HOBBE IN A WELL.
Remarkable Escape of Four Men Who
Dodged Him.
FVoni the Greenwich Graphic.
Saturday afternoon a young man rushed
into the Ijenox House in breathless haste
looking for a Graphic representative. The
guests who were sitting about on the piazza
aid in the parlor heardhim say that a horse
biul fallen into n well in in which there were
four men, anil that two of them were killed.
To inquiries as to w here, the boy pointed up
the street and said in a lot. not far oIT, up by
L. P. Hubbard’s cottages. A crowd had
collected nliont the well nml were {leering in
with mouth open and eyes distended when a
Graphic reporter arrived. Near by, on the
hank, was an Italian, whose face indicated
that he was in pain, and who seemed to
have lost his all. On looking into the ex
cavation, which was 30 feet deep and about
12 or 15 feet in diameter, we saw at the
bottom a horse quietly eating hay, and a
number of men about him, attaching ropes
to him. It was soon learned that the horse
had fallen into the well, and that four men
were down there, and that no one was
seriously injured. How they all escaped is
one of those strange experiences that some
times happens to people. It cannot lie ex
plained. It seems thnt one of the Italians had
tied the animal to a small staple in the side
of one of the houses. This h* managed to
pull out, and commenced to Imek, when
suddenly tho men ill the well saw a great
cloud, as they say, come over them, and
they thought that the liank had caved in.
They nt once stood erect and nil hugged the
side of the well, as closely as possible. This
doubtless saved them, for ns the horse came
tumbling down tail first, his fall was
broken iom<> by a ladder, and he fell in the
middle of them on his side, his head strik
ing Thomas O’Grady a stinging blow.
O'Grady’s presence of mind saved them all
from tiring kicked or crushed to death, for,
as the horse’s head hit him and then struck
the ground, O’Grady sprang upon his neck
mid held his head down, and the men were
taken out a rather badly frightened crowd.
O’Grady seemed to be very devout as lie
stood talking with the reporter about it a
short, time afterward. It was found that
the horse had not been injured, for he soon
got up and liegan eating some hay. But
tho poor animal’s life was doomed. As he
was hauled out, after his somewhat unusual
experiences, ho managed, just as he got to
the top of tiie well, and while the boom of
the derrick was being raised so that he could
land, to slip hts fastening in his struggles,
and fell with a crash to the bottom of the
well again, and was brought out soon after,
dead.

Birmingham and Charleston Play an
Eleven-Inning Game.
Charleston, S. C., Aug. 6.—With a
league umpire Birmingham would Have won
the game, but there being no league umpire,
Hines, one of Charleston’s disabled catchers
was put up to umpire, and his decisions,
though doubtless well intended, were very
unfair at critical jxjints, and hence an
eleven-inning game with a tied score
resulted. Jlunglpr and Childs bekl the
points for Charleston mid Webber and
Ktallings for Birmingham. Both pitchers
were batted freely and the score was only
kept down by both outfields. Charleston
getting eight and Birmingham nine flies,
five being taken by Dufl'ee. Tho score by

Memphis Knocks the New Orleans
Pitcher Out of the Box and Wins.
New Orleans, Aug. 0. —Memphis played
a groat game to-day, battery errors being
the only kind made. Memphis slugged Av
delotte and ran the bases well, winning
easily in consequence. Aydelotte could
not get the ball over the plate,
and besides received poor support.
Wells was hurt early in the game, and
McVey took his place behind the bat. and
did well. The weather and grounds were
bad, and there were no brilliant plays, a
backward running catch by Fuller being
the only one gaining applause. Belt/, loti
the batting. Campau umpired, and was so
severe on the homo team that he was
hissed.
The score by innings follows:
Memphis . ... 0 4 0 1 2 0 1 O x-8

NASHVILLE DISBANDS.
The Directors Said to Have Lost $lO,-
000 on the Soaaon.
Nashville,Tenn., Aug. 0. — The agoßy is
over. The directors of the Nashville Base
Ball Association met tonight and determin
ed to withdraw their club from the Southern
League. In doing this they forfeited 21,000
which they deposited at the opening of the
season as a guarantee that they would
finish out the season, and also their
membership fee. This loss is, however, a
small thing compared with tho showing
made by the association bank account for
the season. The men who undertook the
risky venture of supplying Nashville with
tiase ball may be criticized for
some things but certainly not
for close Bstedness. Their loss
for tho season will aggregate very nearly,
if not quite, 210.000, and it would have cost
them several thousand dollars more to have
finished the season. The following players
were given their release: Kelly, Masran
and Gibson, pitchers: Nicholas, Hayes and
Mannion, catchers; Firle, first base: Burks,
short-stop; Bradley, third base; Clinton,
lieider and Hogan, fielders. All are good
men.
