John Ronney, or Hampton, while out rabbit shooting near Poulthey, Vt., Sat- urday, Was fatally shot by a companion. Bonncy had shot a rabbit and threw it to his friend, who dropped his gun to catch the dead animal. The gun struck a stone falling, and was discharged, Bonney receiving the full charge in the left leg. He died three hours later from loss of blood. At Hubbard's crossing, near Bristol, Dec. 15, Frank Scarrick. keeper of an Italian boarding house, was probably fa- tally shot by a tramp Italian known as No. 181. Four bullets were fire--! and they took effect in Scarrick's left ear, arm, just below the heart and above the right hip. The tramp then robbed the wound- ed man of $200 and a gold watch and fled. When assistance arrived Scarrick was unconscious, and his condition is consid- ered by the doctors to be very precarious. Officers are in pursuit of the tramp Ital- ian, who i3 thought to have gone to New York. John n.

New York, Dec. 12.—A spceial from Malone says: ".Much uneasini si pii'V'iiK along Dr. Webb's railway. Over 100 per- sons have been pi teed under arrest at Tupper Lake. Captain ilussey, one of the chief contractors for Dr. Webb, withdrew hi3 negroes and mules from the work Fri- day, and will ship them to "l'ennesse at once." Two officials of the Adirondack and St. Lawrence railway were seen in this city last night, and said that the reports of labor troubles ou the road had been ex- aggerated. About 3,000 men are employ- ed, and among them are a good many ne- groes from the south, brought by the con- tractors, who are southern men. There is a bitter feeling against the southern men in that part of the state, aud stories were circulated that the negroes were misused or murdered. This caused some people to raise a fund of §1,500 and they sent the sheriff to protect the negroes. The sherilT discovered the negroes were contented and were gelling better wages than the whites, some of them being foreman at $2 50 a day. The trouble was round to be -with the Italians, and several of them were arrested. Work on the road is be- ing pushed rapidly, tind trains will be run* between this cily and Montreal by June 1.
