San Francisco, Feb. 24 John W. Mackay, the famous capitalist, was ebit in the back wbilb standing in an alley in the rear of the Lick bouse, at 12.25 this afternoon. Hia assailant was an old man whose identity is not yet d:tc ostd. At' ter shootincr Mickav, he . turned the weapon on himself, tnd it is believed mortally wounded himself, t ia not thought'tbat Mack ay's wound is fatal Mackay's astai'ant was a white haired man named Duun, fully 70 years of age, Mackav was standins in the alley in the rear of the Lick house. Dunn fired poiut blank at Mackav, the bullet enter ing the letter's back Dunn then turned the pistol to his own breast and fired, the ball passing just above the heart Mackay was at oLce pieced ;n a carriage and driven awiiy. How serious his wound is, b s not been learned. The motive ot the shooting is not known . Dnnn, it is how stated, had a grievance against MacKsy, fancied or otherwise, dating back to mining days, and sougm in this manner to kill him He is a man 73 years ol age. He shut himaelf over the heart, but did not expire immedi atrly, as first stated, but was at once re moved to the receiving hospital, where it wa stated be w-is d log a 1 ociock. Mr. Mackav after being sbot walked to his room in the Palace hotel.. To a re porter be said he had never sen the man who shot bim before, and did not know why be did it. Mackay was very coo!, and walked about bis apartment in the Palace hotel "I was to leave for Virginia City, Nev , this evenink, be said, "and was on my wav to the hotel. I walked np Sutter street to Lick alley to avoid- the crowd. As I entered the alleyway a man jumped ont behind me from a doorway and hot me in the back He then pnt the pisto' to his own breast and fired one shot . I knew I was injured, but did not know bow badly. After tb'e man fell to the ground I walked to the hotel, told the it pie I was oho' and waited tor a cue- The surgeons who ' examined Mackay have not yet located the bmlct Mackay is wonnded midway between the shoulder blades, and when seen did not seem to be suffering rnuEh pain. ' When Mackay's assailant arrived at the receiving hospital he was near V nncon scions. He wai shot through the left breast. . The bullet went clear through bis body, and there is no hope of his re covery. In his pocket was found a let ter addressed to the Examiner It wes beaded : - 'PC D FOB REFLECTION.

Hill administered the fatal stab to o d Lmgford Summers t 'iirtoe'd, .November o last. There was $1000 reward for his capture, which amount wig clulmed bv Depu'y Sheriff . Webb, of Prescott Ariz. A special dis patch received today from Pi cents, Ariz gives the account of his escape Hill wis captured about ten days ago in tbe Sierr Anchss mountains, 70 mibs east ol PbCBniz by Webb, who bad followed him six hundred miles in a wanderinp; course Hill was heavily armed, but Webb got the drop on him and brought him safely to Phoenix, wht-re be wa- put in the county. jil. bhentt Latbrum.' ol Coliaz, was prevented from taking him away bv a writ ot habeas corpus Sun dov nL'ht. just sf'er the prisoners bad tinlvhed sapper.

The men climbed over the fence. and were seen a few- moments later mov ing off on foot. Afterward, it was dis closed tbat a saddled horse was stolen from in front of a chureh in tbe city and another was taken the came evening from a ranch near town. An energetic pursa t was t once started, but nothing hag yet been heard of the lugi'ives The men are soopos-ed to have separated. Hill going back into the wild mountains to Hie northwegt.

Tbe men had been released from their shackles . for a short, time, ami would have been locked in steel cages in half an Lour. ' Hill is supposed to have had friends who assisted bim after he broke out. Cleveland's) Peltry. ' . Washington, Feb. 24 There is con sjernation among certain candidates - for places under tbe new administration. Mr. Cleveland has given ont bis policy He has determined that new men shall e selected almost without exception. The acnonncement of this policy ccmi-i through members of the ntw cabinet. From time to time, it has been rumored thut Mr. Cleveland bad views which would stand in the way of bis former office-holders who are seeking reap pointment; but this is tne fitst authorita tive announcement. Mr. Cleveland take tbe position that his former appointees f boa Id have gone to work after losing their offices lour years ago. The fact that they are turning up now for reap pointment is evidence to him that tbey have been waiting four years to get back, aud .be does not believe in encouraging tbat 8 rt-of thing Conversing about the wisdom of tbis policy, he refers to himself. He says that alter bia defeat be thongbt no more of office holding, turned his atten'ion - to tbe practice of law and was miking a very good living. He did not seek a renomioation and only yielded as a matter of duty to the will of tbe people. He says it would have been unseemly for him to have sought the presidency again aud be tbinks it is unseemly for those who were assistant secretaries, commissioners paymasters, marshals, district - attorneys, ministers, consuls, and what not, to appear pressing claims tn reappointment. This substance of Mr. Cleveland's conversation is being repeated to tbe friends of candidates who are trying to get back their old placet. Tbey are ' being told with em phasis tbat their efforts will be of no avail. 1 . Will Extend tke Tubs. Panama, -Feb. 24 Inasmuch as any American proposition concerning the c,anal will be dependent upon the action of congress next fa L and as Colombia ha no funds with which to care for tbe material shun d she deny tbe French an extension of time and declare tbe prop etty ot tbe company forfeited, it is con sidered likely that an extension of a year will be granted to ill Mauge. Ibe fact that the rights of Colombia in tbe matter are guarmteed by ' both the Uni'ed' States and .ireat Britain has a determining effect in this direction . Whatever arrangement is. made, how ever, will be on linrs laid .dowo bv C lorn liia, and not bv Mauge.

Their places will be filled with trusty Populists who will obey orders. The Populists military fotces are not to be confined to Ibe Kao-as National Guard, which has a membership limited to less than 1800 t'lto, but a military force of such magni tude as has never been seen in this coun- tiy, except in times of war, is being formed. It is estimated thai fudy 50, 000 Popnlis's will be identified with the new movement. Men are drilling all over Kmpas. It is understood that a movement is on foot looking to the lormalion of a military department of the paimers' Alliance, under which all of these independent military companies will be organised. . A. Chapter of Deaths,. Westchester, Pa, Feb. 24 Post master Jesse Rogers, of Guthrlcville, a few miles from here, drove to this town with Frank E sion, an old friend, vester day afternoon. He bad been here bnt a few minutes when he dropped dead. On his way home EisIod was fatally injured by a runaway horse. This so preyed on the mind of Thomas Kick, a friend of the two, tbat he hanged himself in the barn. The Cotton-Splnntnc Strike. - London, Feb. 24 There was a break today in the Lancashire cotton spinutng tnke, when 250.000 spindies resumed operations at a reduction of 2 per cent in wages.

Gunn at once com menced habeas corpus proceedings in the supreme court.

It will be a perfect paradise for noooes ana tramps. . . - - B age ball is being agitated in some towns in Kistero Oregon. It is time for our boys to begin to drill, or they will lose their laurels in tbis regard. A light fall of snow covered the Klickitat hills this morning; but it toon disappeared before the son s rays, and at 10 o'clock the hills Wi re bare as usual. The Dalles will be -'properly in it" to use a parlance with a branch insane asylum, an open river to the sea and the largest wool market on the coast. The Regulator arrived at her wharf at 4:15 this afternoon, having left yesterday morning at 7 o clock. Navigation is -now open and regular tripj will be made here after. W. a. Male, of Haystack, Grant county. contemplates experimenting with a number of semi-tropical crops during the coming season, including cotton, tobacco, broom corn and sorghum. Rich men being made targets for bullets will be consoling to editors and lawyers. who give their labor for the benefit of the public, and never expect to receive com mensurate remuneration. Uaretul examination ot tbe growing wheat, says the Arlington Record, shows that it has come through the winter all O K. ; there being a perfect stand with the soil in fine coudition, everything points to tbe largest crop we have ever had. Two new counties in Western - Oregon have been formed and given the names of Lincoln and 5 aine. They were cot off from ' the connties of Benton and - Lane respectively, which were named in the days when Oregon was counted in tbe Democratic colnmu. The team attached' to the tutcher wagon of Chrisman Bros, took a free run np Third street this morning, and . after circling around a block, or two, without doing any material damage, stopped of their own voli tion. It created a little excitement for a time; but when it was ascertained that no body was hurt the publio pulse assumed its normal condition. A Urant county schoolmaster is in a quandary whether to accept as a warning or a special dispensation, tbe following note received from a proud parent: "I request tbat you give my boy Johnny, a sunn I thrashing whenever he oiixbehaves himself or neglects his lessons. Yon may rest as sured that I will be ready to return yon the compliment at any time." From persons who have mads enquiry it is estimated that there are 50,000 bushels of potatoes in Washington county.. Of other arm products consisting of oats, wheat, bay and onions now ready lor market thero is sufficient to bring $200,000 into circulation. Potatoes. arn now quoted at a cent per pound, bnt it is 1 eared before the road will permit marketing, the price- will drop to a half cent. The Hood River Glacier very justly com plains about parties in that vicin ty killing deer, and sas: "We give them notice that when the next graud jury meets every one of them against whom the evidence can be procured will be prosecuted. The der are poor, uotit for lootl, and on account of the deep snow are helpless. . Their killing is wanton cruelty, and will no doubt be pun- ii-hed as it should by the guilty ones being sent -to jail for from six months to a year. ' The court house resounded tbis morning with deep-BOonding eloquence, and our re- portei thought a criminal was being de fended in a murder trial; but was very much disappointed to God it was only a debate en a cost bill, in which one attor ney was attempting to produce argument for its reduction -and the other to snustan tiate its items. Of course, it must be nuderstood tbat fees of counsel were not attacked by either of the attorneys. New York has a sensation in tha service of John Jacob Astor as a trial juror in a lit tle case involving tbe non delivery of a lot of eggs'. There is no good reason why he and others.of h s staadiog in the community should not so serve.. If solid citizens would take less trouble to get excused from jury duty, or would serve instead of paying their fines, there won Id be leee ground tor com plaint cf the failure of tne jury system. Mr. Astor has simply acted tbe part of a good citizen. Why should he not? A recent storm at Bay ' Center caused thousands of dollars loss to oystermen, says the Attorian.
