Charged with Being One Of the Muir.
derers Of the Gibbons Family.

CINCINNATI, O., June II.
A publication is just made here of the ar
rest on Monday afternoon at Columbus, O.,
Of William Direly, negro, charged with tile
murder of the Gibbons children at Ashland,
KY, December "a, 1851. Fannie and Robbie
Gibbons and Emma arico were found dead
in their burning house. The girls had been
outraged. Three men were arrested
George Ellis, William Neal and Ellis Graft.
Ellis made a confession upon which he was
convicted and sentenced to be hung, but was
hung by a mob. Neal and Craft were also
sentenced to be hung, and now await the de-
cision of the Governor as to the day OF exc
cutiOn.
The arrest of Direly is upon a long trac~
cling of circumstantial evidence in connec-
ton with statements made by Direly HIM
self. Two other colored men, pabney
Jones and Reuben Kendall, are implicated
by Direly, and warrants are out for their
arrest. A shrewd colored detective has
the case, and he claims to have had
statements from Direly, in the nature
of n confession, which are corroborated
in several points by circumstantial evidence.
One OF these is the finding of a bracelet be-
longing to one of the murdered girls in tho
hands OF a colored woman, who says she re.
celved 1t from Direly, and who says he told
her OF the murder, and that he found the
bracelet and some money and a ring Oh the
floor. He gave the ring to another colored
woman, who also has made a sworn state
ment thai Dlrely told her it belonged 10
one OF the murdered girls. Dire
ly at the time of the murder
was employed in a brick-yard near the GID
bons bouse. Dabney Jones was then employed
in Norton's Iron Works near by, and both
Direly and Jones boarded in a shanty near
the river bank with two cOlored women, one
OF whom received the ring from Direly.
Almost Immediately after the murder Direly
left Ashland and was hidden for a long
time; IN was then heard of at Portsmouth,,
o., and was finally traced to Columbus, O.,
where the arrest was made.
ASHLAND, KY, JUNE H.
People here regard the arrest of the three
negroes for the Gibbons outrage and murder
as a hoax. The best citizens say it Is
simply a last desperate effort to save Crafts
neck. The arrest causes no eXcitemeh'
here, people considering it no more impol.
tant than other negro arrests by detectives
IN the same case. One of the prisoners IS ~
Catlettsburg, but his presence causes no e,
element. Dabney Jones formerly lvea
here, but was not suspected of the crime.
LEXINGTON, KY, June IT,.
A correspondent went to the Jail to SEQ
Neal and Craft. He found them in the III.
ner corridor, Craft sitting ON a box reaalIs
a paper. He had finished, and arose SIM.
ing. He grasped the hand of the CORE,
pondent, and said: 81 knew the truth "oau
come out some day. My conscience is cieal.
! can stand on the gallows and protest Ns
innocence. l am as clear of that crime as
babe: l don't know either Direly, Jones ~
Kendall. There are a good many men lnelIJ

also. He said he knew the truth "ou'N

Queen Victoria is said to be suffer-

to takea gloomy view of all occurrences,
and refuses all advice. She was par

OF her son, the Duke of Edinburgh and
his wife, the sister-in-law of the Car, to
Moscow. The way she clings to her
daughter, the Princess Beatrice. is pa
thctic, and she is said to be the only
one who exercises the slightest intlu-
ence over her imperial mother.

Railway Up Mount Etna.

Mount Etna, which for centuries has
been in rivalry with Vesuvius as an
active European volcano, is about to
put forward al additional ground of
competition. The Sicilian mountain is
to have it's line of railway, but the sys-
tenn adopted will be less simple and
probably less dangerous. The traveller
who reaches the summit of Vesuyius
is dragged up by the easy method of
equipoise. He is the lighter balance
and so mounts. The projected line
along the slope of Mount Etna aims at
something which in engineering effort
is a little more ambitious. The Italians
were SO delighted with the simplicity
adopted on Vesuvius that their appre-
citation took the form of an addition to
the long list of Ncapolitan songs. The
refrain ''Funicoli, F%unicola,' is famil-
lar in the streets of Rome and in the
canals Of Venice. The Sicilian enoi-
neers are to construct something more
important than a pleasure line. The
sides Of the highest Italian mountains
are cultivated by a large though scat
tered population. The area includes
as many as seventy-tive villages, with
a population of little less than 400. 600
inhabitonts. This district. extending up
the mountain side to an altitude of over
n thousand meters, is planted with
oranges, lemons and vines. No soil in
Sicily is more rich or productive, and
where the vines cease to grow the
woods begin stretching up the noun
tain side to within II hundred meters
OF the Summit. The first object Of the
new line will be to connect all these
n%eighboring villages which have
between them voted the sum necessary
for the launching of the venture.
Tourists who decide to look into a
crater and to arrive at their object bv
s~team-power must still confine them
selves to the slope of Vesuvius unless
Mount Hecla should have some more
practical associations with steam nan
those geysers which DR.. johnson
begged a traveller who had seen them
never again to mention, unless he
wishes to make a very poor iipure
among educated people.-Londou Ncxs.
