Ryan’s story is that he did not see Greene in the ear until the train reached Cereo Gorge. Believing that Greene jumped in for the purpose of robbery, Ryan fired at him. The duel continued until the train reached the outskirts of Decatur, when Greene opened a door and jumped from the car. Greene was found later by the police. He had a bullet in the breast, another in the right lung and a third in the abdo- men. Ryan was shot in the left jaw, left ear, and left shoulder. Conflicting stories are told by the combatants. Greene says that he got on the express car in Chicago, intending to go to his home at Pittsfield to visit relatives. He was an old friend, and Ryan. he claims, permitted him to ride. Greene says he assisted Ryan with the express matter and then they began drinking. Jokes led to a quarrel, and Greene says he and Ryan drew pistols " the same time. Decatur, Ill., Oct. '2..-John E.

Isaiah Wright, the victim, was a well built, powerful negro of a decidedly combative disposition. He had been several times in the Police Court. but Chief Wright said to-night that. so far as he knew the men under arrest had no especial cause for attacking him, They were the last people seen in the victim's company, and his body having been found almost where they met him, there was nothing for it hut to hold, them.

It is believed that Camp- ‘bell was a witness of the affray, and that he is really held as a material witness. The prisoners were brought before the Police Magistrate to-night, but were not asked to plead. They were remanded on instructions from the County Crown Attorney till Friday, October 6th, and, were thereafter con. veyed to Woodstock jail.

Chief Wright and Constables Cook and Sherlock during the afternoon arrested the following five men on a charge of murder George Dennis, George Hart. He was never afterwards seen alive, and the theory of the police is that in the course of a quarrel the colored man was beaten and thrown into the Thames. That the men in whose com- pany he was had any grudge against Wright was not established.

It bore marks that led to the suspicion that death had not oc- curred from natural causes. A jury was empannelled and an inquest begun. After the remains had been viewed an adjournment was made until October 5th at 7.30 o'eloek in the Town Hall. Chief of Police Wright at once moved ‘ to arrest the men belived to be respon- sible for Wright's death.
