Rande, the murderer.

ST.. LOUIS, November 2O.-FranI
Rande, the murderer, was pronounced ou
Of danger this morning, and will probably
be sufficiently recovered 10 bear moving
BY Friday or Saturday. The guard at The
hospital was increased last night in con
sequence Of some talk on the streets about
lynching him. But so far there have
been no indicaiions.of such thing beine
seriously contemplated. It is said thai
threats Of stopping the train on which he
will be taken from here and killing him
have been made BY citizens Of St. Elmo
but nothing Ia definitely known about the
matter.
Sheriff Hitchcock, OF Peoria, who went
to Jefferson City last evening with Gov.
Collum, With 4 requisition on Gov. Phelps
for Rande, returned tonight and left for
home. Gov. Phelps recognized the re-
quisition without hesitation and Rande
will be taken to Knox comfy, Illinois, as
soon as be is pronounced able TO travel.
All apprehension about lynchipg Rande
on his passage into Illinois may be BAN
ished, as it is understood Gollum will
take measures that will absolutely pre-
vent such an act.
