SENSATIONAL HANGING.
The Goodness With Which Boy Muir
derer Met His Fate ON the
GallOWs.

PITTsBURG, Pa, April 3.-George, alias
Bohe Jones, the colored boy murderer, con-
victed of the killing of Jno. Foster, colored,
was hanged in the county jail yard this
forenoon in the presence of several hundred
spectators. The doomed boy met his fate
un1inchingly. He slept soundly last night
from 9 o'clock until this a.
m, when he arose and partook
of hearty breakfast. He then
dressed himself in new suit in which he
was to be buried, and as he stood before the
looking glass, asked if the suit fit him and
wasn't he well built boy. Father Ward
then administered spiritual consolation, and
promptly at II the sheriff and his deputies
arrived and notified him that his hour had
come. He quietly arose, and after his arms
were pinioned, they marched to the scaffold.
The condemned exhibited no signs of failing
courage and mounted the gallows with firm
step. He then shook hands with Father
Ward and Sheriff McCallin, and in reply to
the question whether he had anything
to say, whispered no. When the moose
was placed around his neck he raised his
chin to assist in its proper adjustment, while
the cap was then placed over his head, and
at II 10 the trap was sprung, and Jones was
launched into eternity. He died from
strangulation, and the physicians pronounced
life extinct few minutes after the drop.
The body was then cut down and this after
noon will be buried in st. Marys cemetery
The crime for which Jones suffered death
was committed on April 4th, 1882,
and was murder of the most
cowardly nature Foster was standing
at the corner of Wood and Water streets,
talking to friend, when Jones quietly
slipped up behind and shot him in the back
Foster fingered three months and then died
Jones fled to Erie, Pa, but was arrested and
brought back. AT the coroner's inquest,
Jesse Carter and John Hughes were impli-
Gated, but the latter was acquitted, while
Carter was convicted as an accessory, but
about ten days ago was respited for two
months, Jones having made confession ex-
onerating him.

THE STAR ROUTE CASES.
Bliss Thinks Cook Played a Double
Game in the Case of Kellogg.
The Republican Party from the Highes
Official were Traitors to their
Country.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-George Bliss testi-
tee. He said he had lost money by being in
the government employ. He understood that
within few days preparations will be made
to begin civil suits in the star route cases, and
that VIM. Fl. Bliss, United States district at
tOrney, st. Louis will conduct them. He could
not account for the failure to indict Sails
bury, but perhaps the grand jury was infu-
enced by petitions. There was large num-
Der Of petitions, and it would be extraordi-
nary if among those there were not letters
from members of congress. Bliss, continu-
ing, said: I'm fine, the attorney general
asked me to see Judge Gresham, as he was
anxious to prosecute the cases. | saw the
postmaster general, and had long talk with
him. He said to me he was preparing a de-
tailed statement of the case for the purpose
of having suits brought | thought at one
time | had an opportunity to get civil suit
against Dorsey, and made personal applica-
ton, and asked Brewster to let me take the
papers. / found between one and
two hundred thousand dollars
thought the government could recover. The
proposed civil suit against Dorsey failed on
account of the sudden death of Bosler. In
reference to ex-senator Kellogg, Bliss said,
g Cook is the only man who said we must
not do anything with Kellogg, as it would in
jure the Republican majority in the senate.
Cook was then government counsel. His
statement set me Thinking. Chandler said
to me one time, poor Kellogg is in u terrible
state of mind. He wants me to speak to you.
OF course [ can't. can only say treat him
fairly AS Kellogg's case now stands, if
Walsh's papers don't need Walsh's testimony
to make them links, it is a fair one, though
it has undoubtedly been weakened by the
course of the witnesses.n Adjourned.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-Alexander W

the sidewalk.
S. L. Dance (white) testified to hearing a
negro say to a crowd of his fellows, he want
ed to get chance to kill white man.
P. f. Walker (white), ex-Federal soldier
and Republican, saw two of the men who
were killed by the rioters. Several white
men picked up one of the bodies and pis-
tol dropped from one of the pockets. He
heard a colored man deprecating the riot, on
the ground that it was brought on premature
ly. He saw ten or twelve of the colored men
in the crowd of rioters flourishing arms, and
saying to their colored associates behind:
Come on, it is as good time now as ever.''
He had heard the colOred men planning to

A Warning to Indians and Half-breeds.

REGINA, n. ". T., April 3.-John and
George Stephenson were executed here this
morning at s O'Clock for the murder of an
old man, John Mccarthy, at Troy on the 18th
of June last. The prisoners were accom-
panied to the scaffold by their spiritual ad-
visers, Deputy Sheriff Gusson, Col. Herch-
mer and others, including the guard of eight
mounted policemen. The prisoners made a
full confession of their guilt and acknowl-
edged the justice of the sentence. After the
usual formalities had been observed the pin
ioning of the prisoners was completed, and
the executioner, who was masked, touched
the bolt by patent lever-shot
bolt. The condemned men fell about
nine feet, and death was almost instantane-
Gus. The prisoners appeared to think the
authorities would not execute them. but on
seeing the coflins this delusion was dispelled.
They were also made aware that telegrams
had been received from their father, asking
for their bodies after the sentence of the law
had been carried out. They fought religious
consolation with great earnestness, and while
the stood upon the drop repeatedly kissed the
cruciix held before them by the priests. The
punishment, even by the Indian and half
breed population, is considered just, and will
produce most salutary effect
