It was reported to the police authorities yesterday that an Illinois man had secured $G00 from the firm of Giayblll, Middlesworth A Co., of Ihe Union Stockyards, by means of a bogus check, to which he bad attsched the signatures of two stock dealers of EiUngham, 111 , with whom the above firm has had deal ings. The individual who reported the alleged forpery did not go into details, and, therefore, the authorities could give very little information to the newspapers relative tbereto. A representative of tao Sentinel called at the Sherman House, where Mr. GraybllLthe wnbrimember of the firm, boards, only to liod that he had gone to Kflinpham. Th leporterthen visitid Mr. A. S. Benson, S73 North Delaware street, who is connected with the lirm, who denied that any forgery had been committed. He said that on Wednesday last Mr. Green, of the firm of Gren t Clark, Kllingham, III , arrived in the city with a car load of stock, which he tnrned over to them to dispose of, and which they sold to an Kastern firm, receiv ing about 7G0 therefor. Mr. Green was giren the proceeds of toe sale, and left at once, returning, they supposed, to Etling ham, but it seems that such was not the case, for a day or two later a telegram was received from Mr. Clark, inquiring about his partner. Green is said to be a drinking man, and his friends are greatly alarmed oyer his absence. Death of Stouhton F. Johnson. Stoughton F. Johnson, the colored child of Kim street, who was thct a week ago la.it Thursday by a neighbor's boy, named Wil liam Nelson, died at an early hour yesterday morning. Nelson was placed under arrest and taken to the Station-house, where he now is. The deceased was a mere child and had gone over to see Nelson on the evening of the shooting. Nelson had a revolver which after touie time spent in examining it, he pointed toward his visitor exclaiming, "Your money or your lifo," and fired. H said he did not think of the weapon b?ing loaded, and was astonished to ere the child roll on the floor nnconsclous. Examination proved that the ball had entered the brain. Tte little sufferer afterward recovered conscious nessand his statement was taken by the Coroner. It was thought Dp t) Saturday thatthe child might recover, but it refused nourishment and seemed to desire nothing buteleep. Nelson will go before the Mavor this rrorniDcr, but it is probable that he will be held until the Grand Jury meets. Postofflce Changes. Two or three changes have been made n the working force of the Fostoffise, and will j so into effect to-day. John R. Thorne has been relieved of any burdens in the office hereafter, and Mr. Wilson, an ex-soldier, has been appointed in his stead. Henry Brown (c3lortd)has also been displaced, and Mr. Draper will a?sume the duties of his position. It is understocd that Scott Tnrner and Al fred Harrison have declined the positions to which thf y were appointed. The Crawfordsvllie Driving- Associa tion. The spring meeting of the Crawfordsvllie Driving Association will take place at Craw fordsville, beginning June 3 and concluding on the Cth. A large number of horsss have been entered for the several races, and gen erous prizes are offered. ATTE1IPTED IIURDER, Uandcvillo Russell an Ex-Convict, Dangerously Wounds John Fagne Tho Cause of the Snooting Involved in Mystery Statement of tho Wounded Man. The little town of Greenwood, situated in Johnson County, ten miles south of this city, and in which was perpetrated some two months ago a most brutal outrage upon the person of Mrs. Mary E. Smith by three masked scoundrels, was the scene of an at tempted murder early yesterday morning, in which MaDdeville Russell, au ex convict, deliberately 5bot and dangerously wounded John C. Fegue. Hearing yesterday that "a man bad been shot in Greenwood the night before," a rementatlve of the Sentinel vis ited tie scene and learned the following par ticular: John C. Fetue, a man abou1; .forty years old, came to Greenwood about a year ago, and was engaged for some time in the manu facture and repair of bed springs. After ward he turned day laborer, and for six months past has been employed at first one thing and then another, as he could obtain work. During his residence in Greenwood he formed the acquaintance of a Mrs, Mary Berry, a widow, who has been doing his washing. Possibly Impressed with her skill in this most necessaiy art, Fague began to pay her some attention, and was at her residence much offener and stayed lorgerthan was necetsary to settle a wash bill. Saturday night was not an exception in this regard, and between 12 and 1 o'clock Dr. Thomas Cnrry, a physician of the vil lage, wp.s called up, and ssw Fague standing at his door, his shirt covered with blood, ana the bleeding man evidently suffering from a serious hurt. Fague sa'd that he had been called out ot Mrs. Berry's residence, where he was visiting, and shot by Mandeville Rus sell, an ex-convict, whose reputation as a fighter has been made byeeveral desperate encounters, in which he has borne a prominent-part in the community. The physi cian's examination proved that a bullet had entered Fague's left breest, about foar inches above tho nipple, end had ranged ciuwArd and backward, producing a painfcil and dan mens wound. Faguo was taken bacfc t j the Berry reoidence and his wound droed. Yesterday he was suffering considerable pain, but was able to sign an afildavit charg in? RueegII with attempted murder. Rufsell being a married mau, the reporter failed to Eto why he should be rrowlirig around at 12 o'clock at night disturbing the billing and ccoing of Widower Fague and Widow Bsrry, and inquiring among the citizens failed to elicit any V-atisfactory explanation of the matter. To the querry, "What besinaij had he thre at euch a time?" no one vouchsafed an answer, and the reporter repaired to the Berry rf oldenco in search of the information which he could not get from any other tource. The wounded man occupied the only bed in the house, and after showing the re porter the wonnd, gave substantially the fol lowing account of tne matter: I kno?vof no reason for the shooting, tor I have givn RusjeH no came of enmity against me. In December last he came hero one niqht and invittd me to Gght, and when I refaci ho carte into the houoe aud attempted to take me out. but be found me n good a mn as he was and he didn't succeed. I came here last night absut 8 o'clock after my washing, and about 12 I went out to the pump to get a drink cf water and saw a mau inside the yard. After 1 re entered the housa, I baked out the window and saw two men on the op posite side of the street. Presently one of them came ocrors and got over the fence into the yard. I then went to the window on the east side of the room and saw two men sitting under the window. I opened the door and went out and aaked them what they wanted. They mads no reply, and I told them to go away, saying that they had no basinegs lounging aronud here at that hoar of the night. With that, one of them, whom 1 recognized as Mandeville Rassoll, pointed a pistol at ma and said: 'Damn you, we'll make yon git,' and with i hat fired. I turned round with the force of the ball that struck me and entered the house, and the men went away. I think the other man was Dietch Hinkle, but will not be positive cf that. I was armed with a revolver at the time, but I do not know whether I had it in my hand or not. I know I did not make any attempt to na it. I do not know what he came here for or why he wanted to shoot me. We have never had any trouble except what I have spoken cf " When Mri. Bany was questioned, she said that she did not fee the men in the yard and did not know anything abont the shooting. She acknowl deed that Mr. Fague was uher beau," but could advance no reason for Rus sell's action, except "pure devilment and desire to interfero where he had nobaslness," as she expresied it. She denied that Rassell had ever visited her house save the time al luded to bv Fague, when he invited the lat ter out to fight. If a different Impression prevails in the community Mr?. Barry is possibly cot responsible for.it. ai she should know who her visitors are. in conversation with the physician, he said that the wound was not necessarily fatal, though it was more dangerdus on account of the warm weather. He said the wonnd was a very painful one, but with good nursing Fague would recover. As stated in tieloregoing. Fague Is hut lit tle known in Greenwood, having been there but one year, but the same can hardly bs said of Russell. The latter kept a saloon on tii outskirts of the village for two or three years, and during this time was the hera of several desperate fizhts in which he always came out unscathed, his adversaries, how ever, faring much wore. ßeveral years aso he was indicted in the Johnson Circuit Court for receiving stolen money, and was sent to the penitentiary, from which he was released b7 Governor Williams upon condition that ha should ba sent back if he began to drink acaln. Rus?ell carried himself very well for a time, bat soon got back to his old habit i, but not till the full time of his ssutence ba1 run out. A warrant was isaned for his arrest ataJatehooryesterdaylafternoon, and. if be has not left the neighborhood, he is no doubt in custody. As he is known to be a desperate character he will possibly get & penitentiary sentence on general principle! for the shoot ing of FjRue, no matter what may be the merits of the trouble between the two. Indianapolis Talent Abroad. A night or twogo the store of William Bass, situated near Greenwood, was entered by burglars and a bolt of jeanp, some cotton gooos and other things stolen. The door was opened by using an Iron bar taken from a neighboring blacksmith shop, and the indications all point to the fact that the enterprising cracksmen weat froaa this city. The next morning the track of a lipht wagon was plainly sren across the woods pasture of a farmtrjus this side of Greenwood, and in a field was seen the evidences of a horse having been hitched for some time during the nicht. Tue people of Greenwood are apparency yery well satisfied as to the identity of the thief from certain circumstances, both preceding and succeeding the robbery. Mr. Btss. how ever, has no means of identifying his go ids, and the probabilities are that there willbs no prosecution for this offense, but a sharp lookout will be kept for future visits of the suspected party.
