CITIZENS ARMED FOR THE EXPULSION OF ROBBERS.
WHEELING, w. Va, December 30.-The excite
ment at Fulton, small town three miles east OF
this city. over the recent robberes, has eliminated
in display of arms that is surprising The town
is stirred as it has never been BEFORE and day and
night is patrolled by armed men. The Fulton
people evidently believing it useless to rely for aid
on police force that allowed thefts of s. less
than week, last night organized a vigilance COM
mittee. Every saloon and place OF public resort
was visited, and all unknown and suspicious per-
sons are driven from the village, with the order not
to return OH pain OF death. SIX suspicious char.
acters were found and hustled OF with little cere-
mony, two Of them being considerably hurt.
Guards were stationed at every entrance to the
town with orders to shoot Late in the night a
valuable watch dog the property OF Charles Kraft,
was found dead from poison, ana a "jimmy" dis
covered in the yard, left no doubt that robbery
had been planned An old man on hts way from
the city to Fulton was held up by two men, and
relieved OF all his money and gold watch. Hog and
chicken thieves infest the rural districts and a
reign OF crime seems to exist Fifty armed men
were patrolling Fulton last night The women
carry revolvers, and the children live in terror.
The first thief caught will be hanged without cere-
mOny.
