THE SCOTT MURDER.
A Full Confession Made By Wash
Allen, Whose Case Was Disp0s.
cd Of by Judge Lynch
Shreveport Times.

Yesterday afternoon, Mr.. McDeay
rcauX, driver Of the Mansfield stage
brought information to tho effect tha
the negro, Wash Allen, who was taker
from the Mansfield Jail Monday nigh
by 80 or 40 masked men and hung a
Kingston, the particulars of which wer,
gwen yesterday by the Times, made
clean breast Of the whole affair, impli
eating four or five Others, and informed
tho crowd where the gun with which ht
committed the terrible deed could b,
found and detailed the manner in which
the whole affair was conducted.
The parties-all negroes---impllcated
by Allen were arrested Tuesday and tax.
en-. to Manifold and confined in the
parish Jail.
The gun was found at the very spot
whore Allen said he had secreted it, and
on the locks were found blood and
hair of the murdered man. He stated
that the killing of Mr. Scott Was a pre-
arranged affair and the four or five 9th
crs, whom he implicated, stood guard
while he did the shooting, and after he
had fired the fatal shot, to make death
donbly sure, he approached the pros.
trato form of Mr.. Scott and dealt him
several heavy blows with the gun,
crushing in the forehead.
The excitement at Mansfield was at
fever heat and lynching of all the par
ties connected with the murder was free
ly talked Of Sheriff Sample and his
deputies were taking every precaution
to protect the prisoners, but We doubt
if they have or will be able to save
them from the swift and Just punish
ment meted out to Wash Allen. The
people of DeSoto arc terribly in earnest
oTer the dastardly act which has robbed
them of one of the best and most up
right men in the parish and arc in no
humor to Await the tedious process Of
the law.
The following letter received yester-
day, gives some additional information
concerning the murder, which has not
been published until now:

without sufficient evidence. Allen Is
said TO have confessed tho crime before

James Craig, who keeps a toll bridge
in Virginia, has escaped q frightful death
by the exercise of his inventive faculties
During the recent hot weather every one
who. stopped at tho bridge to pay the
toll thoughtlessly observed "Ain't it
hot ?" In addition to the wear and tear
of his ears, Mr.. Craig soon discovered
that his voice was growing feeble, for,
the exclamation being couched in form
OF q question, courtesy required that an
answer should be returned. Having
kept count for several days he found
that the Interrogation was uttered and
answered 725 times daily on the aver
age, and perceived that he should coon
talk himself to death. He therefore de-
termined, while reason yet remained to
avert the impending catastrophe. He
accordingly painted and hung up in
plain view sign which reads:
eyes, 1t is very hot.' Now when ira
weller pulls up at the bridge, Mr.. Craig
simply points at the sign with one hand
while he takes the toll With the other.
