PirTsBurG, Pa., November 27.—Near Murrays- ville, Westmoreland County, about forty miles east of here, there occurred yesterday a disgrace- ful riot between the adherents of rival natural gas companies, which resulted in the killing of J. O. M. Haymaker, a prominent citizen, and the fatal woundfme of a man named Keifer, of Irwin Station, Pa., and “the more or less serious injury of several others. Several companies have stubbornty struggled for the con- trol of the putural gas belt surrounding Murrays- ville. Twoor three months ago the fight nar- ro Wed down to the Peansylvania Fuel Gas Com- pauy, whose heaaquarters are In this city, and a syndicate of Chicago capitalists, of which Milton Weston is the head. Both parties claim to hoid ihe legal title to the property, which has been in litigation for years. Large forces of workmen have been kept constantly on the ground for the | purpos@ of holding possession. Battles that re- sulle d in nothing more serious than bruised beads | have been of frequent occurrence, and Oue party has been in nossession as often as the other. The Weston forces were the latest victorious. bs sterday word was received that the Fuel Gas | ompany would endeavor to regain lost. ground. 1 0 prevent them from doing so Mr. Weston sent a party of twenty men to tue well, arming with Springfield repeating rifles that carried a No. 40 cartridge and were supplicd with bayonets. Shorty after 9 o’clock in the morning Haymaker, who re presents the Fuel Ga&S Company, appe: ared before the fence inciosing the mauded those within to surrender. They refused, and finally two or three.jled by A. M. Bowser, suilied out and attacked Mr. Haymaker. ALL QUIET THIS MCRNING.
